    What I really find intriguing/disturbing is the phrase “testicle replacement”. What the hell were they replacing them with???!!!

    What did the NC story have to do with Brokeback Mountain? Seems like an odd way to bring the NC story into the column.

  • They’re replacing them with… god only knows what.

    I do know that you can get Neuticles for your pets–maybe some people are using them in humans.

    I didn’t find the scene when Ennis’ wife saw them kissing as humerous. It is what happens when true feelings are repressed to fit in to society. The realization that they would never be allowed to live together even though they loved each other made me cry. The tragic ending still haunts me. Knowing that it still happens make me feel very sad.

  • woah. i thought i had heard of everything until that.

    I found this in the Wikipedia entry for Neuticles:

    “With Neuticles it’s like nothing ever changed and this is important to caring pet owners.”

    Tell that to the dog!
