I think I remember some sour-dispositioned critic or other describing Heath and Jake as "improbably handsome" for Ennis and Jack.

No, every ranch hand isn't a Heath, but some of them professional bullrider fellers ain't too hard on the eyes!  ;D

Check this one out.

Well, not all "cowboys" are Ennis and Jack.

On the Gay Rodeo circuit they are.  :D


And my ass hurts.

Same at the Gay Rodeos, riding or not...  :laugh:

Rouxb, hope that part of your anatomy feels better now.

I had a complete different experience today, but similar thoughts about it. When I went out to the backyard for the first smoke of the day, it was damn cold this morning. For the first time this fall. I sat on my stairs and thought about how hard life and work must have been for Ennis just because of the weather conditions.
Five minutes of freezing was enough to come to the conclusion there's nothing romantic at being a ranch hand.

Sometimes you take the experience a little farther and get slapped in the face by reality, like your horseback riding experience.  But sometime you take it a little farther and find the gold at the end of the rainbow like I did when I fell in love with the stark beauty, peace and blessed silence of the high desert country.  The best times in life are when art, fantasy and reality can overlap like that.

That is so true. BTW I love your avatar.
