The "ABCs of BBM": Round 965! (Rules in first post)

[Toast]

Any valency left between Ennis and Alma was destroyed on that 1977 Thanksgiving night.

def. - the capacity of one person or thing to react with or affect another in some special way, as by attraction or the facilitation of a function or activity.

Alma:  "So one night I got your creel case open the night before you went on one a your little trips -- price tag still on it after five years -- and I tied a note on the end of the  line.  It said, 'Hello, Ennis, bring some fish home, love, Alma'...."  [screenplay]

Ennis exploded when Alma made her xtra-nasty remark about "Jack Nasty."

Feb. 15, 2006 - Yukon Sully (of Reno Nevada) laments the ubiquitousness of Brokeback parodies:

I Wish We Knew How To Quit Them

[Fran]

"I'm not of a mind to post my review right now....  I'm just thinking of the line Jake Gyllenhaal's character speaks to Heath Ledger's character when they're at loggerheads over their star-crossed love, a heartbreaking line that anyone who's ever been in a hard love has thought, or felt, or uttered:  'I wish I knew how to quit you.'"

Round 3*1*8!!!!!!!!

Hurry before it's too late....

Ennis started to act up when Alma brought up the subject of his "fishing trips", not realizing he had been caught in the act.

Great round announcement.

Alma serves Ennis turkey, and then busts his chops about the fishing line she had been fed.

Really Cool Round Announcement.
That is obviously not the pardoned turkey.

[Fran]

After dinner Monroe sat himself down in his armchair and relaxed with a cheap cigar.

=reply= Sandy and Toast
Thanks!

The turkey may have had dressing, but Ennis sure got a dressing down from Alma.
