Odd

You know how sometimes things just strike you as a bit odd? Yeah, well here's one:

I was trolling through my favourite sites on the (or should that be teh) Cheezeburger network, and I found something that piqued my interest. I think it was on Very Demotivational (but I'm not entirely sure now), that I saw a post that was of Ash from the Evil Dead movies* who is played by Bruce Campbell . I was sooooo in lurve with Bruce when I was in my very early twenties, and with the advent of the interwebs and Wikipedia, I can look him up and remember the glory days.

The odd bit? When I typed "bruce" into Google, the first line on the autocomplete bit was, in fact, Bruce Campbell! Now, of all of the famous Bruce's in the history of the world, I would not have thought that Mr. Campbell would rate quite that high on an internet search. Surely Bruce Lee would be the one that would spring to mind straight off the bat. Odd.

* My all time favourite quote, and I mean ALL TIME, is from Evil Dead 2, which is a classic in the genre. Ash, our hero, has just made mincemeat of his girlfriend with a petrol powered gardening tool after she became totally possessed, and he is looking into the mirror in an attempt to save his dwindling sanity. "I'm... fine" he says to his reflection. His reflection then leaps from the mirror and grabs him by the throat. "I don't think so. We just cut up our girlfriend with a chainsaw. Does that sound 'fine'?" You can see it here if you are interested in taking a peek into my psyche...
