Gay* Thursday -- February 2, 2006
The stars and production crew of the movie Brokeback Mountain, a movie about gay cowboys who eat pudding, are no doubt very gay* today.
The influence of the movie is unmistakable.
It has created a tourism interest in the state of Wyoming. They might have more than 100 visitors this year.
It has created a rash of new toys.
More importantly, it has been nominated for 8 Oscars, including best picture, actor and director. And given what I hear from learned insiders, it will win.
Yes, our society is without a doubt getting colorful and happy influences everywhere.
* Gay: 1 a : happily excited : MERRY b : keenly alive and exuberant : having or inducing high spirits 2 a : BRIGHT, LIVELY b : brilliant in color

"Learned Insiders" wouldmake a good name for gay rock band.
Tourism in Wyoming? There's an oxymoron for you...along with 'gay cowboy.'
Does this mean the cowboy way has changed?
*snark mode off*
Willie Nelson is in big trouble now, his heroes have always been cowboys...
Does that make "Mommas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys" hate speech?
Uhh, Yellowstone? The tetons?
I think folks in Wyoming will be able to spot the Brokeback Mountain tourists. They'll be the ones asking, "Does this banadanna really go with these boots?" and saying, "Isn't that leather vest just so cuuuuute?"
Wrote an op-ed piece about it.
BTW, that picture is too funny...
Off-topic: I haven't been feeling, you know, gay in far too long. Am thinking about asking the doctor for medicine to help me overcome this problem.
