"Within a mile Ennis felt like someone was pulling his guts out hand over hand a yard at a time.  He stopped at the side of the road and, in the whirling new snow, tried to puke but nothing came up."  [story]

"In Voorhees (Pennsylvania), Brokeback continues to do well, playing on three screens with 12 showings a day.  Even on a weeknight, the theater was three-quarters full, with retirees, students, young and middle-aged professionals, and gay couples."
