|P|erhaps it's just Art For Art's Sake (TM).  I can see how some
`-' people (critics included) might dismiss Lynch's oddities as
    frivolous, but I can't agree.

|T|he buck's head on the table is a great example.  This was
`-' flimed in a real bank, which really had a buck's head on
    its table.  Lynch recognized this as a nice piece of
    quirky reality that fits in well with his quirky view of
    America, and kept it in.  Ditto for the spastic light in
    the morgue.

|I| remember somebody (Paul Raveling?) telling us there was a
`-' reason for the bouncing balls, that it had been filmed, and
    that it had been edited out.  Out of curiosity, is there
    any way we could find out what the reason was?  If somebody
    out there is related to Scott Frost, perhaps they could call
    him up and ask. :-)
