The amazin' "ABCs of BBM" game at the BetterMost Forum!

Tuesday, May 23rd had to have been one of the busier days for "ABCs" posting.  Amazingly, there were nearly 100 posts (95) in a 24-hour period (BetterMost time, of course)!  And this, after well over 80 rounds of the game.  Obviously, the "ABCs" is much more than just a "game".

Here's the 16 Playerz' breakdown:

Toast - 19 posts {winner!}
Prowl Among Us - 17 {runner-up}
Front-Ranger - 12
Fran-E - 11
Memento - 8
SouthEnd MD - 7
Juliette Montague - 6
Pipedream - 4
Lucise - 3
Will-ABC - 2
Ellemeano - 2
Moremojo - 1
Penthesilea - 1
DeeDee - 1
The Pirate Bride - 1
MoreMojo - 1

[Note: If more than one player has same score, it's in order of posting.]

Thanks, Playerz, for your dedication to the "ABCs of BBM".  As we finish off the 84th round, we are more than impressive!
Fran

=congratulationz= All Playerz
Besides what U all already know, that one day yesterday -- on a non-significant "Tuesday" no less -- was accomplished without many regular "ABCs" Playerz such as Ann Marie, Victoria, Mandy, Becky, Mary, et al. -- and even with only two posts from yours truly!  Thanx, too, to Miss Fran for the memorialization!

Joe Aguirre's sheep had zillions of blades of wild grasses from which to choose while grazing on Brokeback Mountain.

"B" is bandy-legged

“The sheep trucks and horse trailers unloaded at the trailhead and a bandy-legged Basque showed Ennis how to pack the mules. . .”

From the short story
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

Lureen says: “Knowing Jack, it might be a pretend place – ‘where the bluebirds sing and there’s a whiskey spring,’” quoting the old hobo song “Big Rock Candy Mountain”.

"D" is divine

The way Jack and Ennis met on that day in 1963 was surely an act of divine intervention, because we all know how much their friendship would later on affect their lives.

Jack made a quiet exit from Aguirre’s trailer after he was told was told there was no work for him.

Ennis was grieving at the thought of Jack being buried on the grieving plain.
