Jeans that cost $165 and $218?! Are they woven with thread made from gold?

I thought the $125 jeans at Nordstrom were ridiculous.

Maybe I'm cheap.

Some of the Lynch commercials are quite good. I wish we had more of 'em. Better than bleating idiots shouting "Sale! Sale! Sale!" in an apparent race to see who can cut our attention spans the shortest.

And finally, why the hell am I watching videos of spewing babies on a Sunday morning?! I get enough of that without the internet.

Maybe someone tied some sausages under the bridge.

How did you know that I've only recently switched to Firefox?

In the past six months, five dogs have jumped to their deaths from one bridge in Scotland and nobody knows why.

I'll bet it was the weather.

The article doesn't say whether anyone saw the dogs jumping over, or whether they just found the bodies down below later. If the latter, then I'd suspect human intervention as a possibility.

Even lemmings don't act like lemmings.

Somebody is killing dogs.

Maybe the dead hobo under the bridge smells really interesting.

It's a haunted bridge. Some foul canine spirit is barking "woof woof woof," which is canine for "Fresh bones for a year if you can make it alive!"

Parenting tip of the day:

"Eyes up. Mouth closed!"

I would swear that the actors in Lynch's F. Scott Fitzgerald ad are Benecio del Toro and Heather Graham. Early work, I guess.

That's definitely Heather Graham, fresh off her turn as Agent Cooper's love interest from the 2nd season of Twin Peaks.

The Georgia Coffee ads just made me hurt inside, deep down, where the good things live. Oh, gods. So sad that he would whore out TP so fast.

Michael, sometimes you scare me with your knowledge of TP trivia. How many times have you seen each episode?

Hey, while the family's sick, maybe we can sit down to some good surreal fun. I should go get the first season ...

Then again, I'm already having virus-inspired weird dreams.

I've seen the entire series six times through, with selected viewings of fave episodes many more times than that. I've got the first season DVD set and I'm limping along on some fan-dub DVD copies of the original laserdisc set for the 2nd season. I would kill a man in front of his own mother if that would make them release a legit 2nd season DVD set.

If you want weird dreams, take Thera-Flu and watch Twin Peaks. Fall asleep in front of, say, episode 13 or 14, or maybe episodes 20+.

Tip: do not take harder drugs and think about Twin Peaks for any period of time.

I haven't heard anything recently about Season two DVDs. Is it time to just give up?

Also, the link to the ads is pretty great. Especially the Sci-Fi "Nuclear Winter" one.
