"J" is jocosely
« Reply #6430 on: August 21, 2006, 08:56:56 pm »
Ennis and Alma behaved jocosely on the short honeymoon toboggan ride.

This is a replacement for "J" is jammy
from Round 231 which has been deleted.

Next letter up is "L"

"L" is late-model

"Fine campsite up in the mountains.  Jack's late-model, clean-as-a-pin pickup truck and horse trailer.  Two horses tethered nearby.  Ennis in his old pickup truck pulls up to a campsite.  He can see in his headlights that Jack has already set up camp.  Toots the horn.  Smiles."  [screenplay]

"M" is metaphorical

But only Jack can see the metaphorical moonlight of the authentic life that offers itself to them before they descend from the mountain into the dreary desperation of heteronormative conformity and loveless marriage.    From Brokeback Mountain to Walden Pond

"O" is o.k.

"Jack slid his cold hand between Ennis's legs, said he was worried about his boy who was, no doubt about it, dyslexic or something, couldn't get anything right, fifteen years old and couldn't hardly read, he could see it though goddamn Lureen wouldn't admit to it and pretended the kid was o.k., refused to get any bitchin' kind a help about it."  [story]

Aguirre picks up his phone, pauses; and then Jack and Ennis get out of the office quickly.

"Q" is quarried

The boys enjoyed a delicious, lip-smacking meal quarried from the elk that Ennis had shot. Def: extracted

"R" is roadhouse

The kind of place where Ennis and Jack went to drink beer before going up the mountain was called a roadhouse.

Ennis and Jack fell in love with one another somewhere up on Brokeback.
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"U" is undertaker

When Jack Twist was cremated, the undertaker had to be told to divide his ashes in half for distribution to two sets of relatives.
