Drive in (II of II): Animal tidbits.

The radio station, an oldies one, then stopped the music so the announcer could tell three anecdotes about animals, and I noticed that the music underneath was the Laura Palmer music from Twin Peaks. It was odd because it crescendoed at just the right time when he was telling the third story, about a cat who lives in a senility ward in Providence, Rhode Island, who has sat at over twenty-five patients' feet and all of the patients have died within four hours, so now hospital workers call up the families of a patient to come in right away whenever they see the cat curled up with them. It was right at that last part that the music crescendoed like it did whenever they showed Laura Palmer's prom photo.
