Upon leaving Brokeback, Ennis felt that he had to disengage himself from Jack since he was already engaged to Alma.

"E" is encouraging

The news that Ennis had a fiancée back home was not encouraging, but Jack was not easily discouraged.

=personal milestone= my 5,000th post!  :)
I do enjoy the BetterMost games -- 4,139 of
my posts have been on the ABCs and 123s
board -- but this one remains my absolute
favorite.  So I'm sending out a note of thanks
to all of you who keep our little "obsession"
going strong post after post, round after round,
day after day... because I can't play by myself.

"F" is friendliest

Jack and Ennis went from being friends to lovers and were at their friendliest and loveliest in Tent Scene II.

Thank you for making this game so much fun and keeping me off the streets. Meeting you in person was
certainly another major milestone and highlight of this game.

"G" is gesture

Jack made the first gesture of friendship outside Aguirre's office, when he said, "Your folks just stop at Ennis?"
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"H" is hypnotize

Ennis tried to hypnotize himself into a satisfying sex life with Alma, but Jack's reappearance in his life brought him out of his trance right quick.

"I" is intermittent
« Reply #15575 on: November 03, 2007, 12:44:48 am »
Despite the hardship of living in different parts of the country, Jack and Ennis managed to conduct their intermittent love affair for decades.

=aside= Sandy, Meryl
Thanks.  :)

I'm not going to tell you how long it took me to
figure out the "four weddings" part of your post.
I was just about to ask Sandy to explain it to me
when...duh!  As Sandy said, very clever!

"L" is last-minute

Jack made a last-minute attempt, after bragging about the rancher's wife, to tell Ennis how he really felt when he paused and said: "Tell you what... truth is, sometimes I miss you so bad I can hardly stand it...."

"M" is miniscule

Jack's hopes went from major to miniscule after Ennis's  post-divorce rejection.

"N" is not-quite-satisfactory
« Reply #15578 on: November 03, 2007, 06:41:14 pm »
Jack was content to stay in his not-quite-satisfactory marriage while he waited for Ennis to commit to the "sweet life."

Thanks.

"O" is outstrip

Ennis managed to outstrip Jack's expectations when he unbuckled his belt, shoved his pants down and got down to business.
