Next number Lee? If it's a one or a # with a lot of examples, give us a TINY hint, as I suggested above in the new rule. That way you get to think of a specific one and we have to guess it.

well, I think we've covered the obvious ones...like "4 years." and  "yeah, four years" and,
"every four fuckin' years?" and "I'm commutin four hours a day!" and "4 seconds, a fine ride, by Mr. Twist." and even, "4 of Ennis' stone biscuits" from the story (that Jack eats).


Is there another one you are thinking of that you can thow out a small wee hint about--like said indoors vs out, male or female utterance, etc?

I will be out for the next three hours (wahhh!!)

so you may have to rustle up some other players! Good luck!

It's from the story and it's not an utterance.

Here's another hint. It happens early in the story/movie. What comes in 4s?
"chewing gum and duct tape"

What comes in fours? Well, seasons jumps to mind...so do wheels on a car or truck. And table legs usually...

Not an utterance. I'll have to check the story when I get home! We need to get this game picked up again by Mandy B and others!

Oooh, I think I know:

from the story: "Ennis jerked his hand away as though he'd touched fire, got to his knees, unbuckled his belt, shoved his pants down, hauled Jack onto all fours..."

Is that right, Front?

Alright, find for me double 10's (close to eachother) (hint: in the short story)

Two 10s in one sentence!

Joe Aguirre had watched them through  his 10x42 binoculars for ten minutes one day

I'll be right back with a question for you - though I'm still hopin someone will come up with "thirties".  It's in the movie on the radio.

Okay, there's another half in the short story, before they even go up the mountain.  I don't think it's been done.
