"N" is not-in-my-back-yard

The people of Riverton had a not-in-my-back-yard (NIMBY) attitude when it came to gay people; thus Ennis wanted to meet way out in the middle of nowhere.

Brokeback has been described by People's Weekly World Newspaper as "A heartbreaking story of working-class people, men and women, trying to make a living, trying to do the right thing, imprisoned by limited options, prejudice and fear."

I brought back fish,
