Were republishing it followingDavid Lynchs death.
Did you know about his days as an amateur weatherman?
Or how about the 20 cups of instant coffee he would drink daily?
He lovesMad Menso much, he refuses to call the actors by their real names.
Theyre great characters and whoever cast that show did a sensational job.
Its great writing, great atmosphere,he said, refusing to acknowledge Moss and Hamm as separate entities.
Thats who they are to me.
I called Peggy, Peggy.
Naturally, the duo didnt mind, according to Lynch: No, not a bit.
I met them in Cologne, Germany, and my wife and I had drinks with Peggy in Paris.
It kept going and we went with it, she explained.
Then he emailed me afterwards and he wrote Dear Peggy and finished it with Give my love to Don.
He used a cow to campaign for Laura DernsInland EmpireOscar nomination.
And people solve problems with money normally.
He did the Ice Bucket Challenge … with iced coffee.
He nominated Vladimir Putin to do it next.
He was very, very sweet when he declined directorial duties forFast Times at Ridgemont High.
Lynch hadnt a damn clue why this would be a good idea.
He had a very wry smile on his face as I sat talking with him.
He went and read it.
We met again, Crowerecently explained.
He was very, very sweet about it, but slightly perplexed we thought of him.
He got into the white VW bug and drove off.
He spent many years (unofficially) reporting on the weather.
Its a shame he stopped, but hey, theTwin Peaksrevival was calling.
He used to drink 20 cups of instant coffee a day.
(Hes since dialed it down to about seven.)
Coffee became tied to what I called The Art Life.
I loved to go to diners and drink coffee and give a shot to catch ideas for the work.
Coffee has always seemed to facilitate thinking and catching ideas.
Not only that, but the flavor of coffee is beyond the beyond good, he wrote.
Even bad coffee is better than no coffee at all.
He pissed Mattel off with a coffee commercial.
In 2011, Lynch began selling a legitimate and apparently quite tasty coffee line called David Lynch Signature Cup.
As it turns out, Mattel didnt love seeing one of its products utter phrases like Is it organic?
and Can I have some?
The company kindly asked Lynch to remove the video from the posted outlets.
He loves eating quinoa so much, he created a surrealist video all about it.
So you, too, can experience the joys of quinoa.
Watch the whole thing and youll even get his recipe!
He really felt the Bern.
As he perhaps puts it best here: YAY!
BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT!!!
Dear Twtter Friends,YAY!
BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT!!!
Bernie is for the people !
He is very good at text messaging.
Im Janey-E and I will come when I want to!!!
Of course, he responds.
Im sorry darling but this is sort of trying my patience STOP IT BITCH!!!!
