Amanda opened this thread Sunday evening and I think it's a great one for TOTW, so here we go. Thank you Amanda for your courtesy :-* :)

Enjoy!



Heya,

Yesterday I was running errands and I had a jolt of good old-fashioned Brokie-fever while I was at Costco.  I was walking past the aisles of DVDs and they had a pile of Brokeback Mountain DVDs for sale for $10.  I had an overwhelming urge to buy one... just for the sake of buying one.  Even though I already own two copies of it on DVD.  It just felt hard to walk by without picking one up.  I'm happy to report that common sense prevailed and I did not buy one.  But, still the urge was pretty strong.

So, I'm hear to ask what forms of quirky Brokie fever folks are still experiencing after all this time.

I  was out with the 2 younger ones yesterday,when we stopped at an ice cream parlor.I had no intention of buying one for myself.The kids had a strawberry sorbet and butter maple pecan.I  was just about to pay for the 2,when lo and behold I saw a heath flavour !!!!!!. I think it should have said health flavour!!!! But I had to have one.It was well,how shall I phrase this,I'm thinking.oh yes,disgusting.
Sorry I really hoped to tell you it was delicious,but I should have known.Ice cream and healthy are not natural bed fellows.!!!!.
I have also bought myself a Heath poster,now for a woman approaching 50, I reckion I am still in the throes of all things BBM and Heath.
Have I hung it up, you bet,it is on the back of the rest room off our bedroom ,much to my husnands disgust!!!!!

I know how you feel Amanda.....

What is happening here, is that the BBM movie, is regularly shown on our cable TV.....seems to come in a cycle, for a couple of weeks it is not on, then for a week it is on the movie channel, a couple of times a day.

If I am surfing the channels and happen to come to the channell where it is showing, I cannot NOT watch it, regardless of where it is up to. I have lost count of how many times I have watched it in its entirity or just part of it.

I just cant turn away from the boys if I see them there, somehow it would feel like I am ignoring good friends.

It's that time of year again... the fields around town are full of sheep and their lambs. The lambs are not even newborns anymore, they grow so fast - they look more like the ones that went up on Brokeback by now. I never drive or walk past a green field like that without giving Jack and Ennis a thought or two.

Artiste:
Yes, likewise !

I have two copies, and desire more.

One is already no good !!

Best to prevent not having a good copy  at all !!

Au revoir,
hugs! Happy Mother's Day to you and to all too !!
