Ennis stomped the ground to get his boots full on.


=aside=
My heart is full of you guys.
I've missed you. Great work!
Oh, my, been away for 10 days and had a lot of reading to catch up on.
A few BBM moments from vacation in Provincetown:
     a bumper sticker that said "Ennis and Jack Live"
     a lovely piece on BBM in a new film called "Fabulous: History of Queer Cinema" screened at the Ptown film festival
     "Jake of Brokeback Mountain" was a crossword clue in the Sunday Boston Globe puzzle that featured people with difficult-to-spell names (Zbigniew Brzezinski, etc)

=response=
Welcome back, Paul.  We missed you, too.  As you can see, we've been plenty busy.
Will, Fran, Sandy, and Ann Marie

"G" is gotten

Seeing the film disturbed me. I felt that, as the ancient Egyptians had removed a corpse's brains through the nostril with a slender hook before mummification, the cast and crew of this film, from the director down, had gotten into my mind and pulled out images.    [Annie Proulx - "Getting Movied"]

"H" is half-empty

The half-empty bottle of cheap white wine in Ennis' refrigerator was a legacy of Cassie.

"I" is intermediary

The only intermediary for Jack and Ennis was the Riverton post office.

"J" is juvenescent

That first summer was one of good frolic and camaraderie; Jack and Ennis were still juvenescent.

Ennis had been avoiding Cassie lately after his latest trip with his fishing buddy.

Jack: (finally facing her) "I told you, Lureen, he needs help with his reading, why ain't you called the school yet? They said they'd set him up with a special teacher." [screenplay]

Ennis was the object of Jack's affection.
