The "ABCs of BBM": Round 965! (Rules in first post)

[memento]

L.D. was acting like a big shot at Thanksgiving dinner until Jack outmatched him at his own game.

[MaineWriter]

During the cold evenings up on Brokeback, Jack listened and slowly pieced together the fragments of Ennis's life, from the bits of information that Ennis reluctantly shared.

[Fran]

Ennis had reflexively cold-cocked Jack as they tussled before leaving the mountain.

Feeling cold and bitter after the post-divorce mix-up, Jack strayed south of the border.

[MaineWriter]

Up in the mountains, summer days are warm, not hot and humid; even so, Jack and Ennis were both shirtless as they teased each other.

[southendmd]

Jack was struck by the unceremoniousness of the coldcocking he received from Ennis.

[Fran]

Joe Aguirre exited his Rambler, a vehicle equipped with wind-wing windows, and then reached back in to retrieve a thermos of hot coffee.

Jack and Ennis started to become acquainted after leaving Aguirre's ofifice; "they found a bar and drank beer through the afternoon, Jack telling Ennis about a lightning storm on the mountain the year before that killed forty-two sheep, the peculiar stink of them and the way they bloated, the need for plenty of whiskey up there."

Nice round announcement and a nice tribute to Toast.

Alma's face blanched as she watched her husband kiss his friend Jack in the bright light of day.
