谢谢支持~ BC:对的，和解协议达成了！协议条款已经定稿，文件已经签署的时候，意想不到的事情发生了。其实那个时候，我们大家都已经玩累了法律游戏。所以，尽管我们很可能主导诉讼过程的发展方向，使得最终的审判结果有利于我们，但是，这个官司已经纠缠了一年，我们的工作也被推迟了，代价不小，我们都很想把这件事情尽快解决。彼此之间这种强烈的仇恨和痛苦，都开始变得沉闷晦涩，早就不像当初那么激烈。如果这个和解协议没有达成，我将不得不重新回到Cobra公司。而现在它已经签署了，所以我的公司将和Cobra公司有一系列的合作项目。相比较我完全自己单干，这样能促使我超负荷地工作产出，帮助我更快地获得制片人和导演的资质肯定。关于这些合作拍摄的影片，一切收益都是平均分配的，也就是一半对一半。更重要的是，我将能够继续采用戴套拍摄这种比较安全的方式来保护自己。
With this arrangement, I would have had little contact with Bryan from Cobra Video. Nothing could have happened that would put Bryan back in my life the way he once was, but there was no reason to feel that we could never develop a new, more professional relationship governed by legal laws and clear-cut boundaries. It’s hard for people who are well versed in our public feud to believe this because there was never a time before Bryan’s death that we were able to change the public tide about each other. We were in settlement mode from October clear through January. That’s something few people really know – if you go back and look at my old blog and scour those entries that were written between those few months, there is nothing negative about Cobra or Bryan included in them.
有了这项安排，我将减少和Cobra Video里Bryan的联系。没什么能让Bryan像过去那样回到我的生活里，但是没有理由认为我们不能发展出一种全新的、更职业化的关系，通过法律法规来明确我们之间的界限。对于那些熟知我们长期争吵、彼此不和的人来说，很难相信这种新的关系，因为在Bryan去世之前我们从来没机会能改变对方在别人眼中的看法。我们从去年十月到今年一月都在按照和解协议中的模式来解决我们之间的问题。但有些事很少人真的了解——你回头看看我过去写的那些博客，快速浏览这几个月之间写的内容，你会发现没有提到任何Cobra公司或者Bryan的不是。
BP: Later that January Bryan Kocis was found murdered in his burning home. What was your reaction?
BP:后来1月份的时候，Bryan Kocis被发现烧死在自己家里。你当时听到这个消息时的反应是什么？
BC: Because Bryan’s case has not yet gone to trial (they are looking at September 2008 now), I can’t discuss the details openly. I don’t want to impact the case or the verdict by doing so. I can say that I never imagined that such a thing would happen! Until you go through something like that it’s difficult to understand just how confused and desperate people can be. My reaction? What anyone would do when they find themselves facing a legal nightmare: secure legal counsel so we could do the right thing and work closely, helping the authorities.
BC:因为Bryan的案子还没有进入最终审判（说这话的时候还是2008年9月），所以我不能公开讨论任何细节。我不能这样做，因为我不想影响案子的发展或者陪审团的判决。我可以说，我从来没有想到会发生这样的事！只有你自己亲身经历这样的事情才会知道，否则真的很难想象人会那么困惑、那么绝望。你问我的反应？就是任何人在发现自己面临法律指控的噩梦时都会有的反应：咨询法律顾问，然后我们就可以做出正确的选择，密切合作，有效地帮助当局处理这个案子。

看到大家的翻译，我惭愧啊，我挖坑自埋啊
BC: Grant and I have been together for about 3 years now. He’s 20 years older than me and honestly, often times when we are trying to relate, I can’t help but be reminded of that. We have weathered a number of storms together. I simply would not be where I am now without his support and guidance. He made me into a man and I can only be eternally grateful for that. Although, we have begun to grate heavily on each other because of the amount of time we are always around one another. It’s time for some space and some independence. I will always love Grant and he’ll always be a part of my life. He has to be! Who else will keep all the skeevies from pestering me, or taking advantage of me? We have a long and beautiful future together, whatever our relationship status may be.
BC:Grant和我在一起差不多3年了。他比我年长20岁，老实说，很多时候当我们试图交流，我就会情不自禁地注意到这个问题【BB指他们有难以忽视的代沟】。我们已共同经历过很多风雨。没有他的支持和引导，就没有现在的我。是他让我成长为一个男人，对此，我永远心存感激。虽然，很多时候我们之间摩擦得很厉害，那是因为我们总是距离太近。我需要一些空间和独立。我会一直爱Grant，他永远都是我生命的一部分。他不能不是！还有谁会荫庇我，让我远离纠缠的烦恼，不再被人随便利用？无论我们的关系可能会变成怎样，我们的未来都长远而美好。【这里BB已经在预示他们可能会分手了】
BP: What’s next for you Brent? What would you like to be doing in the next five years?
BP:Brent你下一步怎么打算的？未来五年你想做什么？
BC: Wow, five years . . . I have no clue. I have some ideas, but I know more than anyone that plans can easily change. Where would I like to be?
BC:哇哦~五年阿。。。我不知道啊。我有点想法，不过我比任何人都清楚计划赶不上变化。我会走到哪一步呢？
Directing cutting edge gay films that mesh the adult world into mainstream indie cinema! John Cameron Mitchell and Shortbus are right around where I want to be. I was disappointed someone had beat me to the punch, but hey, there’s a market for it and I think queer media is and will be big enough for the both of us. I’m glad he did it, because in a way he makes it easier for me to do it ;-)
导演先锋同志电影，将成丨人电影业融入到主流独立制作电影行业！John Cameron Mitchell 和Shortbus所达到的境界就是我想追求的。对于某些人抢先于我做出了成绩我很失望，但是嘿 ，毕竟市场还是很大的，我认为酷儿媒体这个领域对于我们来说，现在是，而且将来也会是一个足够巨大的市场。我很高兴他们做到了，因为在某种程度上，他们让我坐起来更容易;-)
