Getting my fill of Knight Rider

Gas stations now show you news and commercials at the pump. Kind of annoying, but my pump showed me Knight Rider this time:

Wow, to say that NBC and Ford has been on a promotional tear is an understatement. I am very happy to see how much word has got out about this movie... Hell, it's even on MYspace! :D

I can't believe all the promoting that's going into this telepic. Even MySpace.com's home page is completely dedicated to the telepic (a brilliant move, too, because that will automatically target the 18-42 demographic and millions of people who are members of the site).

I like to joke that it's where some of that excessive price per gallon is going to.

Though, I'm not at all sure why some stations are installing private feed televisions. It feels just a bit like the Max Headroom world, in some respects.
