"The room stank of semen and smoke and sweat and whiskey, of old carpet and sour hay, saddle leather, shit and cheap soap."

(The short story's contender for sentence with most words beginning with an S.)  ;)

"U" is unrestrained

During the first tent scene, the audience is exposed to unrestrained sexual passion between Jack and Ennis.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"W" is welling

…then, and as easily as the right key turns the lock tumblers, their mouths came together, and hard, Jack’s big teeth bringing blood, his hat falling to the floor, stubble rasping, wet saliva welling....

"X" is xhibit

Ennis's paranoia grew until he felt like he was on xhibit whenever he went to town.

"Y" is yawned-at
« Reply #5386 on: August 01, 2006, 12:24:22 pm »
“Brokeback Mountain" is inert, while dealing with subject matter that might have been titillating in the sixties but yawned-at by anyone in the audience with a modicum of sophistication.

Round 195!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- from Round 200 we're only five!
On the radio, besides Michael Jackson & The Jackson 5's #1 song "ABC" (Playerz!) (1970), Dre & I also recently heard Dionne Warwick's 'Top 10' pop 'n' soul song "Trains And Boats And Planes" (1966)!!  Did Ennis & Jack hear those two songs??  U bet!!

People are traveling by land and sea and air to the "ABCs of Brokeback Mountain" -- by train and boat and plane!!!

"A" is approach

Neither Ennis or Jack seems willing to approach the other as they wait outside Aguirre’s office.
