Falling in love and identifying birds have similar effects. Normal life is altered; every experience heightened; what was mundane begins to explode with meaning. You think birds are just birds—undifferentiated fluttering, then you find one magnified in your lens. You recognize its unique markings, lines, and color. Your heart pounds. It is a cerulean warbler. It is your new mate. I believe both things have equal power to change your life.

Does anyone else think that david lynch's fimography would have been drastically improved if, at the end of each movie some pop music played, and all the characters got together, and started dancing, and the bad guys were standing with there arms crossed refusing to dance, but then their foot starts tapping, and their head starts nodding, and they go like, ah what the heck, and join the big dance party?
