Jack Twist and Ennis del Mar, two job-seeking young men with no prospects, applied for work at Farm and Ranch Employment in Signal, Wyoming and were offered jobs herding sheep up on Brokeback Mountain.

"L" is likely

The customers of the peso-driven prostitutes were more than likely to be familiar with the tricks of the trade.

LaShawn may have worked for Neiman Marcus, but she spent her meager salary and then some on clothes.

"N" is nonfatal

Joe Aguirre made a second trip up the mountain to tell Jack that the doctor had been wrong, that his uncle's bout with pneumonia had been nonfatal.

  Congratulations on hitting 2,000!

"O" is opportunist
« Reply #12954 on: May 07, 2007, 04:25:04 pm »
L. D. Newsome was convinced Jack's interest in Lureen was that of an opportunist with dollar signs in his eyes.


=Congrats=Paul


Hats off to you for 2000 posts!

The business plied by the peso-driven prostitute was right up Jack's alley.

The peso-driven prostitutes have a policy of no refunds or exchanges.

"S" is seasonal
« Reply #12958 on: May 07, 2007, 05:40:33 pm »
Joe Aguirre hired Jack and Ennis to do seasonal work.

I'm glad to see that your "peso-driven" has
been officially entered on the answer list.
We got a lot of mileage out of that one in
the Juarez rounds.

"T" is temp
« Reply #12959 on: May 07, 2007, 05:42:43 pm »
Jack and Ennis's gig on Brokeback was really just a temp job.

=aside= Fran
I was surprised it hadn't been officially used.
Now it can go down in ABC history.

=thanks= Sandy
Yes, finally, "business" + "P" = "peso-driven".  Perfecto!
