"T" is tosses

JOE stubs his cigarette in the over-full ashtray, grabs a cheap round watch on a braided cord from a box on a high shelf, winds it, sets it, while JACK and ENNIS look on. Tosses it to ENNIS as if he's not worth the reach.  (Later that summer, Ennis tosses his cookies, or tries to.)

"U" is underhandedness

Aguirre wasn't above a little underhandedness when he told Jack that the herder should pitch a pup tent on the Q.T.

Joe made it clear that the watchword for the summer was "Sleep with the sheep, hundred percent."

"B" is bedding
« Reply #11669 on: March 08, 2007, 09:05:57 am »
It didn't take long for story Jack Twist to complain about bedding down with the sheep every night:

"I'm commutin four hours a day," he said morosely. "Come in for breakfast, go back to the sheep, evenin get em bedded down, come in for supper, go back to the sheep, spend half the night jumpin up and checkin for coyotes. By rights I should be spendin the night here. Aguirre got no right a make me do this."
