bigfoot & David Lynch

23JUL26

are both strong paddlers

both full of woo
out of Seattle
it's a big canoe
they both paddle

it's a strange brew
they both stir
everything they do
it's in a blur

both have Peeks
depends how you spell it
when their minds speak
they both yell it

they're off the bench
& in the game
bigfoot & David Lynch
they're the same

hold their towels
watch their dreams
know the owls
are not what they seem

Enjoy your Thursday. Do not remain aloof from the goof.

Today we return to the theme of David Lynch and the real estate that he seems to share with bigfoot. The woo refers to paranormal in the world of bigfoot. If you have watched any of Lynch’s creations you already know that his story lines are usually drenched in the paranormal and unexplainable. The Peeks is a reference to his TV show Twin Peaks. And in case you’re wondering bigfoot’s peeks are from behind a tree : ). And the “owls are not what they seem” is a famous line from that show. There is quite a bit of information on the internet about just that one phrase.

The spirit of Lynch has sailed with us from the time we launched. His 1986 movie Blue Velvet is mentioned in the blog’s manifesto. For those of you who prefer a more normal movie, check out Straight Story. It is a straightforward story that stars Richard Farnsworh who earned an Academy Award nomination for his work in the film.
