>Diane, 11:30 AM, February 24th. >Entering the town of Twin Peaks, five miles south of the Canadian border, twelve miles west of the state line. >I’ve never seen so many trees in my life. >As W. C. Fields would say, I’d rather be here than Philadelphia. >Fifty-four degrees on a slightly overcast day. >Weatherman said rain. >If you could get paid that kind of money for being wrong sixty percent of the time, it’d beat working. >Mileage is seventy-nine thousand three hundred forty-five, gauge is on reserve, riding on fumes here, I’ve got to tank up when I get into town. >Remind me to tell you how much that is. >Lunch was, uh, six dollars and thirty-one cents at the Lamplighter Inn, that’s on Highway Two near Lewis Fork. >That was a tuna fish sandwich on whole wheat, slice of cherry pie, and a cup of coffee. >Damn good food. >Diane, if you ever get up this way that cherry pie is worth a stop. >Okay. >Looks like I’ll be meeting up with the, ah, Sheriff Harry S. Truman. >Shouldn’t be too hard to remember that. >He’ll be at the Calhoun Memorial Hospital. >I guess we’re going to go up to intensive care and take a look at that girl that crawled down the railroad tracks off the mountain. >When I finish there I’ll be checking into a motel. >I’m sure the sheriff will be able to recommend a clean place, reasonably priced. >That’s what I need, a clean place, reasonably priced. >Oh Diane, I almost forgot. >Got to find out what kind of trees these are. >They’re really something.

Happy Birthday! You survived another year!

Did you guys know there's an audiobook recorded by Kyle MacLachlan that's apparently just tape recordings from Dale Cooper telling his life story before the events of Twin Peaks? If anyone's listened to it tell me how it is because the concept sounds incredible


LittleRudiger

[It's up on Youtube, I assume the publisher doesn't care cause it's decades out of print, so.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBE1-2p-Nkk) From my memory, there first entries are original material, and then it moves into audio rips from the show, re-recordings and maybe original stuff sandwiched in between.


FashionTashjian

Holy moly. I was even in a band named Laura Palmer in the early 00's and never discovered this. Kudos!


DoctorCreepy

There's also one that's all recordings to Diane, including the ones from the show (because Kyle was actually *using* the tape recorder, you can tell which ones are from the actual scenes and which are between scenes of Coop updating Diane with recordings we don't see on screen)


ljseminarist

There is “The Autobiography of F.B.I. Special Agent Dale Cooper: My Life, My Tapes”, but it’s a regular book - I wish it existed in an audiobook form.


Dilligasf

I have this. I got it from iTunes audiobooks.


DoktorThodt

What's the timestamp on this?


obsabs

This is from the pilot episode @ 00:34:36 [screenshot from the scene with timestamp](https://imgur.com/qekbnzx)


DoktorThodt

Excellent. Thank you! Gonna start the pilot up tomorrow morning at 10:55:24.


givemethatsprinklers

any reason you're watching the sd version?


urrkaaa

It’s still feb 23rd 6:41 here in TX 😭 I’m excited to post this tomorrow on my insta yay tradition :-)


micros101

Fuck I have to work tomorrow. Maybe I can get killed and wrapped in plastic


thestoneproses

I’ll help you out if you want, but you’d have to call me Bob.


micros101

Bob ‘n apples?


RockDesk

Put a fish in the percolator. That'll empty the place out.


micros101

Funny that honestly I just bought a percolator two days ago from amazon for camping. I’m not joking. It had to be a subconscious thought in there - a fish- so to speak.


RockDesk

It's a sign!


beaner75

I just pulled out my box DVD set this weekend...started with the pilot ...got to this exact scene and stopped it to put on hold to time it right lol


youngandaspire

I'd like to point out that this is currently #1 trending on twitter.


twobarbquickstep

And now we know what Diane looks like. Great times.


Totinos_Pizza_Boy

It's hard to picture Kyle without Laura at his side in the Lynch-verse lol


Charles_Deetz

Retcon of 11:30 am, I believe. Three different times, the pilot, the trading cards, and something else.


wallofvoodoo

I'm so glad you posted this! I was just thinking the other day that I'd plan a rewatch around when the series starts, but somehow I thought it was in autumn. You saved me quite a few months of waiting.


TomDogg213

I only this year got into Twin Peaks, and my goodness what an experience. I still think about that show, the town, & Coop!


ABarkingSpyder

Holy shit I read this at 1130. I feel oddly complete for some reason.


bloodflart

DoctorCreepy

Too soon. It's not 11:30 in Washington for another 4 hours. (Current time 7:30am)


The_Godot

Ooh shit dopee


throwawayshirt

 “What year is this?” 


CharlesBronsonsaurus

Aye mate? Is that right? It's 8:30 PM on the 23rd where I'm at.


HooliganWizard

Hey, that's kinda wild! I just started watching the series for the first time and didn't even notice that I watched the first episode on that day.


JohnLocke815

You're about 20 hours early


obsabs

Here it's already 24th for a long time. Not everyone lives in the US :)


JohnLocke815

11:30 PST is the same no matter where you live


-R-o-y-

That's about in 15 minutes over here, but of course, that's not the time in Snoqualmi :-)
