Both Jack and Ennis were very attractive and very virile.

Jack wanted to spend his life with Ennis but, sadly, that was only wishful thinking.  :'(

X is xenophonia

When Ennis's voice changed in tonal quality, to show the passage of time (and effects of smoking), he was exhibiting xenophonia.

"Y" is yourself

Ennis and Jack knew, that on the mountain, you had only yourself to depend on, so it was a place to be careful.

"Z" is zaftig
« Reply #1544 on: May 08, 2006, 06:43:59 pm »
Many of the women in the Independence Day fireworks scene were rather "zaftig" as displayed by their inappropriate attire.

=aside= Anke & Pents
U must know "zaftig" is of German origin.

=aside= Will
"Zaftig" is actually a Yiddish word meaning ripe or luscious. It's commonly applied to plump women who don't fit the definition of "fat," or so my mother-in-law tells me.

=welcome= Becky II
To "Mt. Becky" as in Montana!  Great "Z" word!
Nice talkin' w/ U earlier w/ our A-1 xchange of 411.
I remember seeing (on t.v.) Barbara Stanwyck in "Cattle Queen of Montana"!  Are U one?  BTW, everyone, Mt. Becky is not related to our British Becky (aka "Beckala").

From the story: "He (Ennis) was farsighted enough to dislike reading anything except Hamley's saddle catalogue."
