Amber:
I would have voted for LaShawn had she been on the list - listening to that woman go on and on gives me a headache!

I also selected John Twist and Jimbo.  Down with both of them!  John Twist is central to the story ... but Jimbo can walk right out of the movie if you ask me.

Now, I have the challenging task of playing Jimbo in the ongoing performance thread, and am seeking ways to lend some sympathy to that none-too-friendly but perhaps conflicted rodeo clown. I think his scene with Jack is important to the narrative to underline Jack's loneliness and continued hunger for male intimacy, even seeking it out from as unprepossessing a source as our Jimbo. It also pithily illustrates Jack's naivete and unwitting vulnerability, further anticipating his possible murder later in the story.

Ok, you got me there.  I guess Jimbo does/did serve a purpose.  I stand corrected  :)

I agree with you Scott.

Ok..ok..so he might've been straight, but so what?  ;) ;D

I agree!  Only a dumbass mule could say NO to Jack.  Jimbe was so annoying when he gave that look before he left.  So hostile.  He could have been more humane even if he has no interest in our Jack.
