"U" is undamaged

rom the look in Ennis's eye, it became crystal clear to Biker #1 that he was not going to leave the fireworks celebration undamaged.

"W" is whippersnapper

taring at the television and refusing to eat his food, Bobby, still a whippersnapper, said, "Why Mama?  I'm gonna be eatin' this food for the next two weeks!"

Round 896!

Round 896!


Let's try something a little different.

Each post will include a previously unplayed word and, with
the exception of the first post, the first word in each post
 will begin with the last letter of the last word in the previous post.

For example, for letter "A":  Alma was married to Ennis.
For letter "B":  "Snow came early on Brokeback Mountain.
For letter "C":  Neil Bell is credited as an assistant to
Mr. Ledger in the end credits for Brokeback Mountain.

Heath Ledger gives an astoundingly raw performance as Ennis del Mar.

"B" is blackest

Reeling from the word "Deceased" stamped on his returned postcard, Ennis experienced the blackest hour of his life.

Ennis reads the returned postcard with the café visible in the distance.

"D" is doozy

Ennis welcomed Jack, after not seeing him for four years, with a doozy of a kiss.

Screenwriters Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana spent three months expanding the short story Brokeback Mountain into a film script.

Though Ennis took jobs that allowed him to head off into the mountains easily, he felt he was frittering his life away.

"G" is gaffes
« Reply #21539 on: January 14, 2011, 03:24:15 pm »
Young Alma, not mindful about social gaffes, replied with a shrug to Cassie's question of whether she was the one for Ennis:  "You're good enough."
