Greetings, "Jeep" Wagoneer (tanx 4 ur 411 PM late last nite):

U must check the "ABCz Answers List" to verify that a word has not been used.  No one can play just any word they want, even tho I know that U luv vehicles.   
"Ford" was used in Round 26 by, coincidentally, Will-U (reply#725)!  U can change your "F" word or someone else can play a replacement "F".  Our loose policy on this is basically whoever is first!  That's another reason Y it's important to first check the validity of any answer word. 

Mayor Will

XXX - "mountians"

XXX - "mountians" is clearly a typo!  Nobody noticed?  Unfortunately for the game, due to unpredictable PMD, I dont currently have the mod "edit" feature to correct it myself.  So, the expediency of the game is slowed and the Playerz 'suffer'.  It's reminiscent of the IMDB board.  The "ABCz of BBM" flourished anyway. 

Moreover, "mountains", of course, is a long-ago used answer.  JPW, like everyone else, U need to check the "ABCz Answer List".  If U write Toast, he could explain 2 U how to use the E/Z "edit" & "search" feature to verify words.

Next letters: "F" & "M"
Note: Replacing XXX'd wordz does not  count as a turn!  Same player can do both!!  And then, play their own turn!

"F" is flowers

At the bar, just after the Aguirre interview:
Waitress (to Ennis):  "You drinkin' that beer, or was you plannin' a grow flowers in it?"
Ennis looks embarrassed, is about to say something, but Jack speaks first.
Jack (to waitress):  "Tell you what, ma'am, you just keep linin' 'em up."   [screenplay]

This is a replacement for Ford which had been played previously.
I had been PMing J-Wagoneer about the errror.
But now I agree, the time is up.

Many of us Brokies have found BBM to be truly inspirational.


Next up is "J".

Jack and Ennis jockey their horses through the herd as they move the sheep up the mountain.
I complain too much. That teacher don't like me. Now it's your turn.

"K" is kicking

Thanksgiving, outside the Black and Blue Eagle Bar:  Without hesitation, Ennis runs around the pickup, yanks open the driver door, drags the huge man out in the slushy street, pummeling him and kicking him. Knees him in the nuts.   [screenplay]

"M" melee

Jack and Ennis had to face a melee of confusion the morning after the storm since their sheep scattered and mixed with the Chilean sheep.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

All the people out on the pavement looking at Ennis were nobodies [persons of no account].
