Round 35!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only just 5 more rounds to 40 to beat our own
"ABCs of Brokeback Mountain" record of 39 "R"s,
but we're soon gonna hit that 2nd big milestone
of "1,000 posts"!  FYI, the 1st was "500" posts. 

BTW, I did 70 exclamation marks -- count 'em.
(I wasn't gonna say: Anyone gotta "A"?  Nay!)

Gamely,
Will-35

Jack was constantly frustrated by Ennis' rejection of his dream of having a life together.

I don't know why, but L.D. Newsome obviously hated Jack's guts. I, personally, loved them...

John Twist to Ennis: "Then this spring he's got another fella's goin' a come up here with him and build a place and help run the ranch, some ranch neighbor a his from down in Texas. He's goin' a split up with his wife and come back here. So he says. But like most a Jack's ideas, it never come to pass."
