Ennis has to have control in order to survive in the world!

Remember too that in that he fights often!! That is control!! Fighting for one, is control!!

The real world is made up of such men who like it or not fight!!

Is that fear ONLY??

Hugs!!

A random revelation from the Castro showing:

Lureen says she imagines Jack's parents would want to see that his wishes was carried out... and then pauses..."about the ashes, I mean."

She knew.

I still am in pain about Brokeback Mountain!!

And think most often too about my past lover/friend....who was killed my MD in hospital I figure because my pal was gay... and a christian!! Even that, it seems to me Annie warns us about.

BM am guessing talks about yearning to have liberty... in many ways it does that for us gays!!

Hugs!!

My son said to me the other day that he would hate to get a box of soup, because "it would leak out all over the place." Yup, them boxes of soup are real hard to pack.

So many containers in the story and the film! And many of them don't work. Jack, who was handy with a can opener, spilled beanss all over his shirt when he was opening the can as Ennis undressed by the fire.

I'm going to put one totally irrelevant, off-topic post here in the Open Forum, for the sole purpose of bumping my post count by one..........
Watch out. That poster has a low startle point.

Interesting thread for you to just wildly randomly pick to post on!  ;)  It was always a favorite of mine.

Welcome to the 1,000-post club, Mel!  :D

I thought about posting something in the Brokieisms in real life thread, or in the loveable subtle details thread - those have always been two of my favorites. But I decided to dig through the archives, and I guess I thought this thread kind of defined me here.

For what it's worth.
