From the story: "Under her breath she said,  'I'd have em if you'd support em.'  And under that, thought, anyway, what you like to  do don't make too many babies."

"Z" is zero-sum

Ennis's life was like a zero-sum game in that if he followed society's rules, it ended up in him losing a part of his individuality.

very well done

Yee-haw, ABCers! Well done on the milestone, keep on going! Wow, 64 rounds and the first time I've ever done a round changeover message! That has to say something.

Congratulations, Becky, on your announcer status. Now go back and make sure there are 64 !!!!!!!!!'s  after Round 64 in the subject line above.  I think you're missing some.  :)

I am not sure if that's a joke, but I am dedicated so I have done it anyway. ;D

Becky, it's a game tradition.  Thanks for not breaking tradition here.  Will will be extra proud of you!

"A" is for appreciates

Ennis hardly ever appreciates Alma or his children. He also does not appreciate Jack and everything they have together. But when Jack is gone. Ennis sure does some appreciatin'.

Jack and Ennis made a great couple.

"D" is draft
« Reply #1766 on: May 12, 2006, 07:35:35 pm »
Jack's fear of the draft was unfounded.

He was too beat up to serve his country. 

So he neither had to go to boot camp nor to Canada.

Ennis was so eager to see Jack, he flew down the stairs.

"G" is grey

Ennis wore grey storebought gloves - probably with thinsulate labels removed - on his honeymoon toboggan ride.
