Okay, I go to the trouble to post this, and right now there are 40 guests viewing fanfic, two other guests, and 4 members all viewing the home page. Sigh...

I think it's great, Lee. Thanks for sharing! :*

I have one, not so much a Brokeism, but another example of how BBM has become incorporated into our consciousness.

I met Mike from Providence in RI today for antiquing at a Panera. Now, the song "They will know we are Quakers by our Love" has been in my head since I played it a month ago at the retreat.

So today, across the crowded restaurant, I spot Mike in his cowboy hat. For the rest of the day, I'm hearing "They'll know we are Brokies by our hats" in my brain.

Almost five years later and there are no reins still.

It's funny, I will be riding down the road and see a peice of land and it will remind me of Brokeback.
The other day I was with Gene at an endurance race. I couldn't ride because of my recent injuries, so I sat in the vet check area freezing my ample arse off then the wind started blowing.
At first I was preturbed because I was already cold. hen I began to think of it as Jack, playin a trick on me and I din't mind so much.
Guess this thing has taken hold!

My ex-husband, who is moving, described some apartments he had looked at. He mentioned one that was well located but not aesthetically pleasing.

"Well, you could fix it up real nice," I said.
