Brokeback Mountain: A love affair between a pair of homosexualist cowboys ends tragically when one is killed by a horse . The actors playing the leads are (supposedly) straight. Includes graphic sex scenes. If you are into this sort of thing stay home and rent the spaghetti western Django Kill...If You Live, Shoot! instead, it's a weird and entertaining film that includes an honest depiction of homosexualist cowboys - an entire gang of them. Memoirs of a Geisha: A trio of Chinese honeys infiltrates Japan by disguising themselves as whores. The potential of the premise squandered, as unlike the homosexualist cowboy film Memoirs of a Geisha is only PG-13. The Producers: A pair of real life homosexualists (Matthew Broderick, Nathan Lane) portray heterosexual Broadway musical impresarios. Notice the pattern.

He ignores the voice but it won't go away, so finally he quits his job, withdraws all his money from the bank and flies to Vegas.
When he gets off the plane the voice says "Go to Caesar's Palace. Go to Caesar's Palace. Go to Caesar's Palace." So he goes to Caesar's Palace.
The voice says "Put all your money on red 27. Put all your money on red 27." So he puts all his money on red 27. The wheel spins...and comes up black 13. The voice says "Fuck."
Joplin and Hendrix both died at age 27.
ReplyDeleteI remember that '23' used to be the big freaky number. It was in like Robert Anton Wilson books. That was a few decades ago. Clearly we are making progress.
23 is freaky. 27, on the other hand, is a number the whole family can enjoy reading about in the news.
