"They fended off the night for an hour with the yellow kerosene lamp, and around ten Ennis rode Cigar Butt, a good night horse, through the glimmering frost back to the sheep, carrying leftover biscuits, a jar of jam and a jar of coffee with him for the next day, saying he’d save a trip, stay out until supper.”  [story]

Jack seems to have put up with L.D. for years, until his interferences were no longer ignorable.

The car keys jingled when L.D. threw them to Jack and said: "Rodeo can get it."

Ennis is standing under a sign advertising liquors when he yells for Alma to stay home and serve supper to him and his daughters.

What Heath Ledger wore to the 78th Academy Awards ceremony:


"The Brokeback Mountain  best-actor nominee wore a traditional bow-tied Dunhill tuxedo. He also sported a mysterious cross pin: 'It's part of a cult I'm with,' he joked."  
-- Donna Freydkin, William Keck and Alison Maxwell, USA Today

The obnoxiousness of L.D.'s behavior at Thanksgiving was finally the last straw for Jack.

"Q" is quenchlessness

Lureen remembered Jack's quenchlessness when she talked to Ennis Del Mar:  "Well, he said it was his place. I thought he meant to get drunk. Drink whiskey up there. He drank a lot."
