Ennis instinctively had his way with Jack; he didn't need no instruction manual.

Ennis jocoseriously told Jack "Speak for yourself.  You may be a sinner, but I ain't yet had the opportunity."

"[Ang] Lee's brother, Lee Kang, and mother, Yang Si-chuang, 81, watched the [Oscar] ceremony from Lee Kang's small TV production and film distribution office in Taipei, together with dozens of local and international media.  When the director's award was announced, Lee Kang sprang up and pumped his fist into the air and Yang applauded enthusiastically."
-- Min Lee, Associated Press [link]

The whiskey helped to lower Ennis' inhibitions during Tent Scene I.

"M" is mosey

After getting their instructions for the summer Ennis and Jack decided to mosey on down to the local watering hole for a beer and a smoke even though it is still early morning.

"N" is noisiness

Annie Proulx described the noisiness of the Del Mar bedroom in late 1964:

"the sounds were of squalling and sucking and Alma's sleepy groans, all reassuring of fecundity and life's continuance to one who worked with livestock."

"O" is over-the-hill

Although neither Jack nor Ennis was twenty, Jack's truck was certainly over-the-hill.

Ennis' distress about leaving Brokeback puts his nose out of joint.

"Q" is Queerty

The following item was found on Queerty:

A longtime gay activist has purchased the shirts that Ennis and Jack wore in Brokeback Mountian for $101,100.51.  The money will go directly to Variety – The Children’s Charity of Southern California.  More importantly, Tom Gregory, our new favorite person, also just gave us the quote of the year:

"They really are the ruby slippers of our time," said Gregory, 45.

A longtime gay activist, Gregory plans to keep the shirts "as they were, on the hanger, entwined."

"I would never wear them, put them on, or separate them," he said.

"R" is rabble-rouser

The bikers were adept at rabble-rousing, and they sure roused the rabble in Ennis, turning him into a rabble-rouser , too!
