"Y" is for yadda

What Ennis would have said, circa 1997, is "No, Jack, he rodeos mostly, and, yadda yadda yadda, we was fishin' buddies . . . "

"Z" is Zidane

Ennis's sudden and explosive temper made him a veritable Zidane among cowboys, as the driver outside the Blue Eagle Bar found out to his surprise.

Taking a chance that the French captain Zinedine Zidane's exlposively angry head-butting of his Italian opponent Materazzi in the recent Soccer World Cup Finals is as well-known here at BM as it certainly is in Europe. I doubt you'll find a person who've not seen that incident multiple times and discussed it at length - it's become a common cultural denominator.

And if there is *any* doubt about a BBM connection, Toast pointed out this link that shows the actual headbutt incident and what may have been said to provoke it.......  ;)

It was abundantly clear "how it would go" after TS1.

Jack and Lureen:  “No one’s gonna love you like me,” plays in the background during their first slow dance.       Quiet mastery .. JWR.

Ennis hit the ceiling at Thanksgiving, when Alma brought up Jack.

In America sex is an obsession.  In other parts of the world it is a fact.

After the post-divorce drive, Jack's hopes started to go down the drain.

The world which Ennis and Jack have been born into is at once changing rapidly and yet scarcely evolving.

His reunion with Ennis had been gestating in Jack's mind since they first separated in Signal, Wyoming . . . .

"H" is horrified

The love-sick pair hug then kiss in the parking lot.  A horrified Alma appears in the wrong place at the right time and shudders from head to toe at the abhorrent sight.       Quiet mastery .. JWR.
