I won't add a reminder of what I think Ennis' next stop is, after the hand-drying.

Love it!! Honestly, I never thought of that before. But, Ennis surely does look excited! ;D

Me three. I was out in the mountains this weekend, thrashing through the brush off trails and stuff. Lunch time rolled around, and I felt in my pocket for my knife, and it was gone. "I can't believe I left my damn knife up there." Didn't say it out loud, though.
Tell you what, I was pretty damn glad that I had left my car keys in my tent. They coulda been left on the mountain with the knife, and then I woulda been stuck locked out of a car, locked away from my cell phone, on the mountain overnight until Search and Rescue came looking for me and helped me break into my car.
Good thing Ennis didn't have anything important in the pocket of that shirt.
Well, ok, I guess his blood was on it. And symbolically I guess it's kinda like Ennis tried to leave his heart in that shirt on the mountain, except Jack took it and kept it....................
Guess that's more important than a driver's license or car keys, huh.

Here at work this morning I used "Sure enough" and "Tell you what" in e-mails to my supervisor. ;D

OMG, Jeff! I just saw the little sub-text under your name! Too funny! Too bad that expression ("gun's goin' off") didn't find it's way into the film! ;)

That's one of my favorite lines in the story. ;D
I wish the avatar were a little larger. People probably can't make it out from the picture, but I'm sort of making a visual pun: In the photograph I'm holding an antique Civil War rife; hence, "Gun's goin' off!" ::)
