"E" is exhorted

Annie Proulx exhorted us to "finish the story in our own lives"; thus, the story of Brokeback Mountain and the message board is constantly evolving -- hint to future "E"-word Playerz!

"F" is forgiven

Ennis wondered if he was forgiven for giving Jack that punch, on the last day of the summer of '63.

I swear, it will never happen again.

"W" is whimsical

Jack had a whimsical expression on his face when he did the bull riding impression.

This is the replacement "W" (is "whiner") for Round 68.

Next up is "G".

When Ennis started opening up about his life, a small grin appeared on Jack's face.

In America sex is an obsession.  In other parts of the world it is a fact.

Some of the scenes in the movie Brokeback Mountain were shot at the Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump Park in Alberta, west of Calgary.

"I" is inn
« Reply #1935 on: May 16, 2006, 07:45:46 pm »
Inn is a synonym for "motel", and who doesn't remember that scene!

Okay, if forced to offer more description, that's where Ennis and Jack red-lined it too during their first reunion.

"That Girl Ann Marie" - what a comedienne!!!
The Motel Siesta ain't no Holiday Inn, Marla.
It was more akin to the Bates Motel of WY.
What replacement word will U use for "I"?
Will-I

"J" is juniper

From the story: "...Jack lifting his head in the heated noon to take the air scented with resinous lodgepole, the dry needle duff and hot rock, bitter juniper crushed beneath the horses' hooves."

On their last day on BBM during 1963, Ennis got a bloody nose from Jack's knee during their horsing around.  Twenty years later Ennis saw some of that blood on "the two shirts".

Masturbation is the clinical term for "wrang it out 100 times".
