Thanks, Lynne, for bringing this thread back up.  I read it from the beginning and came across Rich's post, above. 

Rich sure seized the day.   :'(

I'm so glad he found Brokeback and adopted that philosophy like he did.  So prophetic and sad, but so fortunate, too.

Today is very special to me!
It is the culmination of a long journey that started on Brokeback Mountain with two cowboys I fell in love with.
Not a sexual kind of love but a love bourne of the pain of recognition. I saw myself in them. I saw my pain expressed in their lives I saw where and how I would  end up if I didn't change.
All of this understanding was driven home in that post card that was returned to Ennis in that small post office in Riverton. We are not promised tomorrow. We have one life and one shot at living it to the fullest. Each day we don't do that is a day wasted that we will never get back. No, tomorrow may never come so if Ennis and Jack have taught us anything it is this "Seize the Day" Carpe Diem. my friends!Live each day as it were your last foritmay just be!

I, for one, could take a lesson or twelve from Rich.


I think we all can.  ;D



Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I had a little November 7th moment today. I bought a sleeping bag today - a blue one. I wasn´t planning on it but as I was walking around in a store I suddenly saw sleeping bags on display. I went over to look and a blue sleeping bag caught my eye. When I couldn´t find a price tag, I asked one of the store clerks  and it turned out that the sleeping bag I was looking at was the only one left of its kind and was no longer in stock. I was offered to buy it for almost nothing. As I am aiming to camp more in the future, I jumped on it.

Then as I got home and logged onto bettermost, I was reminded that today is November 7. And there I was with my blue sleeping bag next to me, thinking about doing more camping.
Just a little nice (and slightly weird) Brokeback Mountain moment.
