"I" is inadequate

Ennis and Jack's few times together a year were inadequate for their thirst & need for each other.

"J" is jentacular

After a night watching for coyotes, keeping the flock together, and probably suffering from chills; it was nice to have a jentacular meal.

=aside= Toast
A very good breakfast, I hear, is beans on toast.

"If you can't fix it then, by God, drive off from it - that's my motto."

Jack - Childress Highway - discussing the Malone pickup (and Ennis?).

"P" is pummeling
« Reply #2167 on: May 22, 2006, 10:36:10 am »
near the Black and Blue Eagle Bar:  ENNIS runs around the pickup, yanks open the driver door, drags the huge man out in the slushy street, pummeling him and kicking him. Knees him in the nuts.

Ennis frequently quipped about Jack's harmonica playing.
