**Bobbio,** congrats on the new job. Your start date is the same day as my daughter’s birthday! One of my co-workers left a lovely gift of a big box og GuyLian chocolates on my desk. He’s such a nice fellow. Our Christmas party is today, so I’m outta here at a little after 11:00. It should be fun. ---

> [@chaoticbear](#): > > I thought that it would have been far funnier as _Bareback Mountain_. Does anybody remember the South Park episode with the film festival? There was a film entitled _Gay Cowboys Eating Pudding_. The first time I saw a trailer for _Brokeback Mountain_, I laughed until I cried, just hoping there would be pudding somewhere in the movie. ---

I don’t want Heath involved in my pudding. Or me involved in his pudding. I’ll take Jake, though. ---

Unfortunately, I don’t have the plug-ins needed to view it, and I get in trouble if I download stuff. (IT guy and I don’t get along all that well but well enough at the moment that I don’t want to rock the boat!) And I have dial-up at home so I can’t watch it there! Oh the tragedy! ☹ ---

Wow, I missed a whole lot of innuendo jokes. Yeah, there was a metaquote (for those of you who are as immersed in LJ as I am) about calling it Bareback Mountain. Honestly, I don’t understand what women see in men. Women are far more attractive.
