After a night of heavy drinking, Ennis teetered and then toppled into the tent.

"V" is variations
« Reply #14072 on: July 16, 2007, 09:28:57 am »
Ennis's drinking style had its variations through the years:

It was beer that first morning.
Whiskey by the time of the "come on a bear" incident.
Beer with Alma and Cassie.
Whiskey with Jack in the wilds of Wyoming.
But by the end of the film, he seems to be a teetotaler; not even finishing off Cassie's wine.

Toast and Pickles sounds good in my new Tee.
Cheers!

After a night of heavy drinking, Ennis got completely wrecked and awoke with a top-grade, unwanted headache.

"X" is xanimate

Ennis's day started off badly when he awoke with a top-grade headache and got worse when he found the xanimate carcass of one of Joe's sheep.

def. = lifeless

"A" is alarmingly

Ennis's trailer was alarmingly spare.  "If you ain't got nothin', you don't need nothin'."

Homey round announcement.

"B" is bareness
« Reply #14077 on: July 16, 2007, 12:55:38 pm »
We see the bareness of Jack's home, but Ennis is left to verbally describe his home life.   The bareness of his young life is even more heartbreaking.

=compliment=  Sandy
Great round idea.
Great announcement.
Nice to have a home to run to after days and days of drinking.

"C" is cost
« Reply #14078 on: July 16, 2007, 01:09:31 pm »
Jack and Lureen's house must have cost them a pretty penny whereas Ennis had to pinch pennies to be able to afford his rent.

Thanks guys.  We'll keep playing until the cows come home.

"D" is drabness

Most of Ennis's abodes were notable for their drabness.
