BrokeBack Shocker . . .

A friend of mine just told me how he went to All-Star video and witnessed a shocking moment in its infancy. (Or is that a "shocker-to-be"?)


An older gentleman, late 50s or early 60s, decked out in his cowboy/western gear sauntered into the place and loudly asked the clerk if they had "Walk The Line" and "BrokeBack Mountain". He sported a cowboy hat, the Wranglers, the big belt buckle and the loud-stomping cowboy boots. You could tell he was hardcore. At his side was his sweet, tiny, timid-looking wife who stood by her man as she clutched her modest purse and smiled like only a favorite grandma could.


The clerk gave them the movies, did the necessary paperwork, and wished them a good evening.


Boy, is that gonna be ONE suprised man! Geez!
