--- Quote from: opinionista on November 29, 2006, 06:18:15 am ---There's also the fact that Jeremy has been around gays for sometime, while Ennis's sole experience before meeting Jack, was seeing the corpse of a rancher who was tortured and killed for being gay. That has to make a huge difference when it comes to dealing with your own sexuality. Poor Ennis. Jeremy is lucky.

I agree. Dupree has also had Ennis and Ellery as a role-model for a same same-sex happy couple, and he lives in a relatively tolerant environment (Wes, Edna, the
cops at the station who know about Ellery).
On the other hand, there were gay - related shootings (!), Amos Marigold, the difficulty finding a non - homophobic ADA...
Plus, He had feelings about men before, but didn't own up to then until he was 26. We can't expect it to be smooth sailing ...
PS - good luck with the job situation, Louise!

Maybe Nick can come home after finishing his duty or whatever at the Navy. It is going to be hard for Jeremy to leave Laramie, that's for sure. Besides, what's he's going to do on Whidbey while Nick is off at the sea? He'll have more fun at the Stallion.

Because this has been a point of confusion, I feel the need to remind everyone that Ellery, Jeremy, Wes, Joe, et al. all work for the Albany County Sheriff's Department (Laramie is in Albany County; Cheyenne is in Laramie County. Go figure).
And has anyone noticed, now that Dupree seems to be involved in some sort of romance, we've all started calling him Jeremy?

You know, I still find myself calling him Dupree, dunno why. Perhaps it's cause Dupree sounds more exotic to my ear, and I went to school with a Jeremy (he mustn't have left a good impression). :laugh:

no, no send-off after work. We are actually having a Christmas party next Monday night at an Italian restaurant, so that is going to somewhat serve as my "Abschied" - farewell here.
I am finishing up my documentation of my version 2.0 stuff, and will be cleaning up my PC and the desk here, then wandering home sometime later this afternoon.

If not I may be looking for a room in oh, say, Belgium or Holland for a few weeks!
