Ennis spent all day waiting for Jack to show up for their reunion, occupying his time by smoking and drinking.

Upon L.D.'s making an issue of the state of the television set, Jack proffers the suggestion that he sit down immediately lest he get a certain part of his anatomy whupped.

"R" is relics

At the Twist house, Ennis went upstairs to Jack's bedroom and found the two shirts, hanging together down at the end of the closet. He fingered them gently, two precious relics from their summer up on Brokeback.

While they were downing beer at a bar in Signal, Jack told Ennis about the stench from the forty-two zapped sheep.

Ennis had just finished affixing stick-on numbers to his new mailbox when Alma Jr., the elder of his teenaged daughters, pulled up in a Z28.

The wrath of Ennis came down upon Alma when she upbraided him about the real nature of his relationship with Jack.

"W" is willows

"The tea-colored river ran fast with snowmelt, a scarf of bubbles at every high rock, pools and setbacks streaming. The ochre-branched willows swayed stiffly, pollened catkins like yellow thumbprints. The horses drank and Jack dismounted, scooped icy water up in his hand, crystalline drops falling from his fingers, his mouth and chin glistening with wet."

Jack came sputtering down the road in his antique truck, then began sizing up Ennis.
