I am pleased (and relieved!) to announce the arrival of my baby....Agent Cooper.

Agent Cooper is parked in the January Clubhouse (see p.21) and is now accepting visitors.

Yes, I will admit, this is a shameless attempt to get the January Club page views to skyrocket into the stratosphere. But as the January Club founder, I gotta do everything I can to keep us ahead of that darn Club Feb.

Great work! We were anxiously waiting!

Have an amazing week with The Agent!

Too bad it's so damn cold, eh? Canadian arctic air, no doubt!

Nice name! Love the show - wow, I took a college class on Twin Peaks/X-Files believe it or not. Nice MINI too, of course.

I'm a member of club Feb, but no offense taken.
:smile: I have to wait until around Valentine's day for my still-unnamed MINI.

Enjoy and Cheers!!

You bet your sweet bippy that's who he's named after! All dark and mysterious, he is!

I haven't yet found out if my Agent Cooper has a fondness for cherry pie, though.

Oh, this is better than having Bat Boy behind the wheel! Nice job with the art work.

The owls are not what they seem....

mpemburn and the dwarf in the red room said:
>>"Give me all my Garmanbozia"

After I took the picture of Agent Cooper in front of the Wrigley Building (that's Wrigley of the chewing gum fame), I remembered a quote from the dwarf in the red room. He said to Agent Cooper:

I've got good news! That gum you like is going to come back in style.

So I wonder if my Agent Cooper likes spearmint or doublemint?

Oh, I'm not confident enough yet to drive my baby on LSD*. Thems some scary twisties goin' round that 'S' curve by Oak Street Beach. Scary, at least, for someone like me who hasn't driven in so long. But one day, I will have the courage and you will hear me yelling "yahoo!"

*OK, for those of you who are now thinking I drop acid and drive, you can plug your eyes back into their sockets. LSD refers to Lake Shore Drive. The same LSD that Ferris Buehler went motoring on

the oak st. curve is wicked!
it is the truest twisty for us chicago people, there are some good ones up north too though!
i've seen some really scary accidents there! recently i saw a audi s4 eat sh*t on that curve!
the car spun and ended up backwards against the median. blew out all the windows on that side too!
it was not pretty! don't be afraid of LSD (hahahhaa), just be really cautious and look out for the speed traps!
