You guys ever log on facebook and get advertisements that are related to shit you've been thinking about? Happens to me all the time. I mentioned last week I bought a brand new used car. I never posted it to facebook or anything, but lo and behold, maybe three days later, I get this advertisement every single day that I log in to facebook.

I mean, yeah, I bought it. But what the fuck, you know?

I read three articles on Hauer's death that didn't even mention The Hitcher. WTF? He will always be that character in my head. Scared the snot out of me as a kid.

Same. All the headlines are of him being from Blade Runner fame. The Hitcher is his best movie, and I live near the Outpost Cafe where the ending was filmed.

Balls. I mean I know Bladerunner was always going to be his most remembered movie, so that's not at all surprising, but his Hitcher role is unforgettable.

In honor of Rutger, you guys need to get your hands on the movie Blind Side and give that one a go. It's bad enough his Hitcher performance is hardly recognized after he died, but almost nobody's even heard of this one. Which is blasphemy, as it's one of his most interesting roles.

I haven't seen the Hitcher in a long long time maybe 20 years. Maybe I will save it for October

Doesn't help that it hasn't had a blu ray release, and the one dvd snap-case that's out there is a pretty crummy transfer.

Yes! It's really weird man. The other day, my coworker and I were listening to some Pandora station. I swear to you....he and I were talking about random bands, and every band we mentioned would be the very next song. I think it was like a Foo Fighters station. I mentioned Bad Company, and the song Bad Company came on. He mentioned how much he liked Megadeth....BOOM, Peace Sells comes on. We joked about it, and I said "play me some Skynyrd! The Ballad of Kurtis Low played.

I. Shit. You. Fucking. Not.

The other day, I was thinking about ordering from a pizza joint around here called Christy's Pizza. I haven't ordered it in 10 years. Never been a fan. But I was going to give it another chance. Sure enough, on Facebook, I got coupon offers while fucking thinking about it. That also happened with a food truck in Columbus, Ohio, I was thinking about checking out. An advertisement popped up while I was scrolling.

Wow.
