"T" is tinkering

Jack had trouble starting his truck the day the boys returned to Signal, but Ennis helped him get it going again by tinkering with the carburetor.

"V" is variableness

The years following the June or September 1967 reunion were marked by the variableness of the boys' meetings.

"W" is wileful
« Reply #16385 on: January 18, 2008, 03:07:44 pm »
It's obvious from her use of the word Nasty that Alma considers that Jack is a wileful rodeo cowboy who has been an awful influence on Ennis for years and years.

def - Full of wiles; trickish; deceitful.

"X" is xpansively
« Reply #16386 on: January 18, 2008, 04:00:58 pm »
On what would sadly turn out to be their last day together ever, Jack gestured xpansively while venting his frustrations:

"Tell you what, we could of had a good life together, a fuckin' real good life, had us a place of our own.  But you didn't want it, Ennis, so what we got now is Brokeback Mountain.  Everything built on that.  It's all we got, boy, fuckin' all...."

"A" is attracting
« Reply #16388 on: January 18, 2008, 04:30:18 pm »
When Ennis and Cassie first met, Cassie was attracting his attention with a bouncy tube top, flingy blonde hair, and a snappy number on the juke box.

"B" is briefly

Aguirre briefly detailed the job-descriptions for the two deuces, told them they would be trucked to the jump-off next a.m.; and promptly continued with business as usual on the phone.  Ahem.
