Two characters were total nincompoops: John Twist and Joe Aguirre.

Oh, Princess, thank heavens U are okay!
And U did receive my e-mails that I was back.
So when U still din't return, several of us worried.
Next time -- anyone -- give us a heads up for vacations.
Gamely,
"Jefe" Will, Frann Marie, Ann Marie & Sandy Marie

Whether inside or out on the pavement, Ennis felt odd, as if everybody knew.

That spring, hungry for any job, each had signed up with Farm and Ranch Employment -- they came together on paper as herder and camp tender for the same sheep operation north of Signal.

Jack displayed all the quintessence of a man in love.

One of the big points of BBM is that Ennis & Jack's sexual relationship and sexual feelings were unfortunately repressed.

Jack broke the seal on a bottle of whiskey, took a long, hot swallow, exhaled forcefully, said, "That's one a the two things I need right now," capped and tossed it to Ennis.

Aguirre was tactless when Jack showed up looking for work the next summer.

Ennis was ver' unyielding in his strong "I ain't foolin'" and "one time" warning to his BF Jack about if he ever comes to find out that Jack went to boy it up in Mexico again!!

Ennis became extremely vociferous after Alma used the term Jack Nasty.

Ennis to Alma: "I should take the girls into town this weekend. Get 'em an ice cream."
