Ennis said that his lateness was because he had come on a bear.

A suburban Salt Lake City multiplex owned by Larry Miller, who also owns the Utah Jazz basketball team, captured national attention when it abruptly changed its screening plans and decided not to show the film Brokeback Mountain.

"O" is ornateness

The ornateness of the Twist's decorating style is in sharp contrast to that of the del Mar's.

"S" is sentences
« Reply #18777 on: January 13, 2009, 09:07:03 pm »
Down in Texas Jack's father in law died and Lureen, who inherited the farm equipment business, showed a skill for management and hard deals. Jack found himself with a vague managerial title, travelling to stock and agricultural machinery shows. He had some money now and found ways to spend it on his buying trips. A little Texas accent flavored his sentences, "cow" twisted into "kyow" and "wife" coming out as "waf." He'd had his front teeth filed down, set with steel plugs, and capped, said he'd felt no pain, wore Texas suits and a tall white hat.

Francine's asthma was just one of the reasons that Ennis and Alma became tenants of a small apartment over a laundry in Riverton.

Ennis insisted on the untenability of a sweet life together with Jack.
