Am I the only person...
Ray:
Those who say "it isn't so" simply don't want to acknowledge that part in themselves. We know passionately that it IS so and why should we try to convince anyone of our understanding. we are lucky because we see it. They are not because they don't. Rather simple really!
RouxB:
Some say tomato, some say brussell sprout. I have had my moments of frustration over some wacky interpretations (Jack committed suicide, Lureen killed him, the sheep could talk) but, bottom line, people can think and say what they want. I don't need agreement to feel validated-well that isn't even remotely true, I do need agreement to feel validated but I'm trying to get over it. This movie means a lot to a lot of people and I gotta cut them some slack because I have some beliefs that I know would cause people to want to put me out with the sheep!

Let's hear 'em! Get a debate going! We need some new things to argue about, or we'll be back at sorry, s'alright! So are you saying you DO think the sheep could talk?

Oh, I get peeved a little, but not enough to send a hateful PM individual forum members, when people outside of the USA not only don't know much about life in Wyoming during the years from 1943 through 1983, they don't even know much about the Old West of the USA either . . . AND . . . they PM me because they feel that they have to tell me off and call me hateful names.
I am not an expert on ranchboys or shepherds in the USA. But, I certainly have known real ranchboys and people who had sheep during my 63 plus years on earth. I have lived on farms or worked on a farm, while living in the country, and the nearest neighbor was a rancher and not a farmer.
Oh, I have personally known real old time cowboys, one of whom was a teenage friend of Will Rogers, the famous Cherokee who grew up on his father's Dog Iron Ranch in the Cherokee Nation in Indian Territory.

Secretly, I'm with you, Spark. I get especially annoyed at those who contend that Ennis "wasn't really gay." Yeah, OK. And based on their "logic," Lureen really wasn't straight, either. In her own way, she too dedicated her entire adult life to Jack, but had she not met him, she would have been with other women. ::)
I'd *really* like to see that one laid to rest.
