Castro Brokeback Mountain

It is a great and wonderful thing for Brokebackers, Brokebackites and Brokaholics to gather in fellowship and watch The Movie on the Big Screen together.  Last night in the Castro was wonderful, both getting together before the movie and meeting some of the online folks (both Ultimate Bb Forum and BetterMost.net), and getting to see Brokeback Mountain again on the big screen.  (By the way, there's still time - it's showing today and tomorrow, 6/13-14.)  People came from as far away as New York, Alaska and Samoa to see it again.  And such interesting, beautiful, gentle people! And I got to actually hold the wooden horse and knife that Heath/Ennis was using in the tent on that first Brokeback Summer! A holy relic of Our Boys of Brokeback!
 
Many thanks to all who helped put the event together, and to all who attended. Others have said it better than I at: http://davecullen.com/forum/index.php?topic=9547.45 (see Replies 55 & 56.)
