    It seems to me that a lot of people have forgotten the true meaning of
most of the symbols in the first dream sequence.  Let me just clear up the ones
I can think of offhand.  The last about the birds singing and music in the air
refers to the cabin in the woods, which incidentally has red curtains, because
of Waldo the mynah bird and the perpetually playing records.  I won't even
comment on the way people have used these to rationalize the BL sequences, but
it seems more like coincidence than foreshadowing two seasons in advance.  I
am still confused about the reason people equate the LMFAP with BOB.  When has
he ever done anything to scare or harm Cooper.  Come to think of it, he always
seems to provide helpful clues to what is forthcoming.  And he doesn't ever
refer to himself--- he says things as other people might.  "She's my cousin."
This is why I still feel that "The next time you see me, it won't be me." is
about Cooper's possession, and not himself.  The fact that LMFAP has an evil
doppelganger is, I think, another clue, as is the word "doppleganger" itself.
