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

[southendmd]

Aguirre may be fond of binoculars, but he's a bit cockeyed himself.

[memento]

Aguirre gave Jack a dressing-down when he brought up the thorny subject of "stemming the rose."

[Fran]

Joe Aguirre equips Jack and Ennis with horses, mules, dogs, tents, camping gear, rifles, ammunition, food provisions, and whatever else they will need while working up on Brokeback Mountain.

On 2K fabulous posts!! Am I too late to the party??

Joe Aguirre was less than pleased when he picked up his binoculars and caught Ennis and Jack in flagrante delicto.

def.= Latin: "while the crime is blazing"; "caught red-handed" or "caught in the act" are English equivalents.

[Toast]

At the end of the interview, Jack Aguirre gestured to both of the boys with his left hand.

Aguirre told Jack that Uncle Harold's health was ailing, but he pulled through and was alive and kicking.

[southendmd]

Aguirre invectively tells Jack that he wasn't gettin' paid to let the dogs baby-sit the sheep while he stemmed the rose.

[Meryl]

On the q.t., Aguirre juggled the Forest Service rules in order to keep his herders with the sheep at night.

[Toast]

Aguirre lays down his laws that his herders will follow.   When Aguirre throws the watch to Ennis, and talks about his duties, Jack seems to realize that, although he is a returning employee, he remains in the rank of a sleep-with-the-sheep herder.
