That's not the Blade Runner book, that's a book about Rutger Hauer as far as I can tell. The Blade Runner book is called 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick, and it's exemplary Sci-fi (although kind of different from Scott's vision.)
Funny thing, they actually took the name from a book called The Blade Runner because it sounded cooler than their proposed titles. Now Ridley Scott owns the rights to the name of an unrelated book that, unfortunately, has been left out of print.
Feedback will set you free.

Not brand new, but the disc is in a good shape and - considering the peanut range price and 60 Hz mode - I have no complaints whatsoever.

As I'm no fan of Sidney Crosby, I still believe that these were the greatest moments in Hockey.

Image

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiHty3ROQXk <---from 6:15

After the tying goal, the Russians didn't post it on the scoreboard or turn on the goal light. Canada's manager(?) ran down from the stands trying to break through the 100s of military police to launch a protest. When the police tried to take him away, the entire Canadian bench emptied and leaned over the boards swinging their sticks at the policemen. Meanwhile the Russian crowd looks on in disbelief as these crazy helmetless boys begin fighting the gun wielding Soviet Police with their hockeysticks.

I'm not sure if I'll get through all 26 hours of this though....

Is that the series where Bobby Clarke basically broke some dude's leg so Canada could win?

the age old debate continues.
wikipedia wrote:This truly memorable moment for Canada was not viewed as a fair win in the Soviet Union. Many Soviet citizens believed that their country would have won had Bobby Clarke not fractured the ankle of their best player, and if Anatoli Firsov and Vitaly Davydov had not sat out the series to protest a coaching change.[7] In response, some offer that Canada was without Bobby Orr due to injury as well as Bobby Hull and Gordie Howe (due to their departure from the NHL to the newly-formed WHA). These were arguably the best Canadian players at the time (besides Phil Esposito), so neither team had its greatest talent on the ice.
Plenty of dirty play from just about any hockey team in the 70's. Enough for many to see it as a dark age of hockey. But the intensity of the summit series has arguably never been matched, and that's what makes it memorable.

As far as I'm concerned, Russia were the true winners since no one thought they stood a chance. Even the Soviet government ordered the team to "not lose by any large margins" before the series started.

ANYWAY! let's see some more cool stuff.
