Annie P., Diana O. and Larry M. were jointly nominated for their combined writing of BBM for a prestigeous USC "Scripter" award!  It was USC's 18th annual and held on February 11th.  (BTW, who won?  The "Capote" author and screenwriter!)

[USC = University of Southern California]

When Ennis and Cassie pull up in front of Monroe and Alma's house to pick up Alma Jr., the sun visor on the passenger's side of the truck is in the down position.

"X" is xasperating

Mouths open, L.D. Newsome is the most xasperating in Brokeback Mountain!  At the movie theater, in the Junior Twists' Thanksgiving scene, we wanted to throw our root beer sodas and buttered popcorn at the big nasty bytch!  Fortunately, Jack saved the day and Lureen put the icing on the cake with her grin of approval.  When that happened, the audience cheered. ;D

Jack whooped out the equivalent of "yippee" when Ennis shot the elk.

...by noon the clouds had pushed up out of the west, rolling a little sultry air before them ... as Ennis waited for Jack to show up.

"The road to Lightning Flat went through desolate country past a dozen abandoned ranches distributed over the plain at eight- and ten-mile intervals, houses sitting blank-eyed in the weeds, corral fences down."  [short story]
