"J" is jig-jig

After saying a quick how-do and bye-bye to Alma, the boys were soon making jig-jig at the motel.

Later at the Motel Siesta:

          JACK
Old Brokeback got us good, didn't it?
     (drags on his cigarette)
So what're we gonna do now?

          ENNIS
I doubt there's nothin' we can do.  I'm     
stuck with what I got here.  Makin' a
livin's about all I got time for now.

M is motel
« Reply #11192 on: February 15, 2007, 01:35:45 am »
According to Annie Proulx the motel "room stank of semen and smoke and sweat and whiskey, of old carpet and sour hay, saddle leather, shit and cheap soap."

Must have been one of the free rooms. 
Economy at it's best.

Nice table, too!

"N" is necessity

The motel did have the one required necessity - a bed.

"O" is odoriferous

From the description of the motel room, we may discern it was quite odoriferous.

"P" is profoundly
« Reply #11195 on: February 15, 2007, 10:00:23 am »
Laying there in their economy motel room Story Ennis admitted to being profoundly affected by the summer of 1963:

"That summer," said Ennis. "When we split up after we got paid out I had gut cramps so bad I pulled over and tried to puke, thought I ate somethin bad at that place in Dubois. Took me about a year a figure out it was that I shouldn't a let you out a my sights. Too late then by a long, long while."

Jack and Ennis were able to get a room at the Motel Siesta even though they did not have a reservation.

The motel room could be described as sleazy at best.

"T" is tummy
« Reply #11198 on: February 15, 2007, 10:09:11 am »
In 1964 Ennis figured out that his tummy pains on that August day in 1963 were a reaction to losing Jack Twist.   I wonder if the Motel Siesta's aromas brought back his tummy pains and refreshed his memory.

"U" is unnerved

Alma was unnerved by the sight of the nervy kiss.
