Alma used an ugly-worded moniker when she called Jack "Nasty".

By wrinkling her nose and shivering, Cassie shows how she feels about the castration of calves.

Jack was a daydreamer who wanted "the good life" while Ennis thought it would lead to alarming consequences.

The next day after the hailstorm, Ennis and Jack found that their sheep had blended with the Chilean ones.

INT:  CHILDRESS, TEXAS:  JACK & LUREEN'S HOUSE:  THANKSGIVING:
DAY:  1977:

JACK and LUREEN'S home.  Wall-to-wall carpeting, fairly
luxurious, particularly in comparison to ENNIS'S life.  Many
photos of LUREEN winning barrel-racing trophies. One of
JACK, the one taken in the arena the day they met.

Jack's wish for a sweet life together with Ennis was just a daydream.

Ennis was caught up in the mundane everydayness of living until Jack came back into his life.

Thanks.

Heath Ledger on the fuss about the sexual orientiation of Ennis and Jack:

"I think half the problem with today's society is that we like to label situations and people, and the term gay, I think, is just there to kind of segregate a type of people. People, I think, are a lot smarter. I think it has been overused and abused, and I think our point is that gay people, straight people, regardless -- there are people at the end of that title at both ends, and that's exactly what they are, and these are just purely two human beings who fall in love. So whether they're gay or not, I really couldn't care; the story is purely about two souls who connect."

John Howard & George Bush do 'Brokeback'

I almost choked on my rice bubbles this morning when I heard a news grab from the Howard-Bush 'Love Fest' in which Dubbya describes our Johnny as "not the prettiest" guy on the block.

Of course, our Johnny being the brown noser he is, failed to retort with a well timed, "That's okay George, cause you're not exactly the smartest bloke on the planet - about as sharp as a bowling ball in fact..."

Dubbya even went on to comment about the PM's bald pate, in a move which I think was intended to show just what great mates they really are - I think it was a scene stolen from 'Dumb and Dumber', or in this case, 'Dangerous and Dangerouser'.

So chummy are these two that word from Canberra is that Johnny generally greets Mr President with the truly Aussie opener, "G'day you old bastard, how the bloody hell are they hangin'?" Dubbya just loves it and intends to come up with the perfect rejoinder one day, just as soon as one of his staffers makes one up.

Talk around town is that the two men are planning to retire 'Brokeback Style' and set up house on a large ranch property in North Dakota. There they can spend aimless days polishing their saddles and telling war stories across an open fire.

John Howard and George Bush - what a couple of wacky funsters they are!
