"They were raised on small, poor ranches in opposite corners of the state, Jack Twist in Lightning Flat up on the Montana border, Ennis del Mar from around Sage, near the Utah line, both high school dropout country boys with no prospects, brought up to hard work and privation, both rough-mannered, rough-spoken, inured to the stoic life."  [story]

Sandy and I would like to refrain from the crude Bostonese, and to show that we are indeed true Brahmins.  :laugh:

Scene:  Higgins Gift Shop {closed Sept. 11th}

Ennis advertently goes to the Higgins Gift Shop on a nostalgic Ennis & Jack mission:  Get that Brokeback Mountain postcard!  It was comforting to read about Ennis acting advertently -- a rare occasion for him.
