Two days ago, I was watching The Bridges of Madison County (love the movie, have seen it few times already), and when Clint Eastwood's character tells Meryl Streep's that "this kind of certainty only comes once in a lifetime" [referring to their attraction/love], I couldn't help but think of the boys.  And couldn't help finding all these connections between the two stories...

I still get hit with Brokie fever more often that I thought I would 5 and a half years after first watching the film. 
I don't know what it is; whether it is the changing of the seasons or certain events in my life that trigger it... but it is still there.  :)

   Oh my goodness, what a lovely surprise to see you posting here.  I have been wondering if you ever came in anymore?  I love seeing you again.  I hope your life is going wonderfully and you are happy and well.  Janice

It's interesting looking back to the beginning of the thread. And that was in 2009, more than three years after the opening of BetterMost and beginning of Brokieism.

I've had awesome experiences thanks to Brokiedom.

Thanks, Lee. Seeing all those old familiar usernames brings it all back. Those old, cold days on the Mountain are never to be forgotten: the Alberta Pilgrimage, meeting up in Denver after my Southwest Trip with Mikaela, our New York meetups, the Tucson gathering, all were so special. I hope we have more to come, even this far out from 2006 and the beginning of BetterMost.

Love you all, dear Brokies!  :) ;) ;D :D 8) :-* O0 :laugh:

Brokiedom has been an important part of my life, and for that I am forever grateful.

I don't think I've ever seen anything that has caused a relapse.   This Christmas the Paramount network aired "Dashing in December", a gay Christmas movie, and it featured gay cowboys, one was named Heath.


I didn't cause a relapse, while I did enjoy the movie, it would never compare to Brokeback.  However, it did make me think of BBM a few times.
