"Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much life. Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully." (Harold & Maude - 1971)

...when my sister and I had lunch at a cafeteria this past weekend, I requested beans in honor of Jack and Ennis.

...I'm considering growing a 'pornstache' in Jack's honor.

...I want to make the rest of my life a memorial to Ennis and Jack and what their story represents...

...that includes being a braver person, a more loving person in general, one willing to take more risks and seize more opportunities as they present themselves before me.

...I'm finding myself using 'hmmmm' a lot in my vocabulary.

.I never thought I would find spitting and swearing so endearing!

As a former English major, I never thought I'd find bad grammar so endearing! I would actually try to sneak an occasional "we was" or "them days" into my own conversation if it didn't sound so ridiculous coming from my mouth (rather than cute, when they say it).

When you start listening to John Denver music on the principle that a lot of his songs have the word "cowboy" in them.

Or start frequently humming the old Allman Brothers song "Sweet Melissa" -- which I hadn't thought twice about since the '70s and never really was particularly fond of -- because Ennis plays it on the jukebox on his date with Cassie (the lyrics describe his relationship with Jack).

- You begin to find sheep exciting.

- You read a flyer advertising a small-time rodeo and wonder if Jack's going to be there.

- Wyoming and Texas license plates catch your eye. Especially parked at trailheads.

- When your three-year-old has a tantrum about the yogurt that spilled on the floor, you get the urge to tell him "if you can't fix it, you gotta stand it." But you don't, because you'd rather he grew up to be somebody who fixes things he can't stand.
Watch out. That poster has a low startle point.
