Heisenberg Is Alive, Well And Still Slingin' The Blue In Good Ol' Illinois

Followers of the Galesburg Police Facebook page have been doing double takes since the booking photo of a wanted Galesburg man was posted last week.

“Wow, the resemblance,” Christina Balmer commented, referring to the likeness Todd W. Barrick, Jr. bears to Walter White, the main character of the popular TV show “Breaking Bad.”

Barrick, 50, sports the same bald head and similar facial features as White, including the distinctive goatee, and is also 50 years old, the same age as the character when the TV series begins.

Galesburg Police say they posted Barrick’s booking photo because he is wanted for probation violation related to possession of methamphetamine.

We’ve all seen the trailers coming out of the Breaking Bad movie “El Camino” and are all equally pumped up about its release next month.  Well one of my theories is that Heisenberg is alive and well because we never actually saw him die in the last episode, and Todd Barrick here proves my point. Just linked up with the vacuum repair guy, changed his name, started up shop now that the dust has settled after fucking up the nazi compound, and is yucking it up out in Galesburg IL slinging the Blue.  You think Heisenberg was going to go down that easy?  Hell fucking no he wasn’t.

Oh, and yes, he’s still on the run and hasn’t been captured yet.  

And if you’ve ever been to Galesburg or NW Illinois, you know it is ripe for meth heads.  Just hillbillies and white trash galore.  Sure there are some really cool lake house communities out there, but there are also a ton of hill rods who undoubtedly love them some meth.  So it makes perfect sense that Heisenberg would take residency there.  And notice I refuse to call him Walter White.  Walter White died years ago.  Heisenberg?  I choose to believe he lives and lives well.

Real talk though – Jeff Lowe blogged it this morning, but the new trailers popping up for El Camino are all bad ass.  Looks like the show is going to follow Jesse after he escaped from the nazi compound.  He might have even have gotten back in the cook game again judging by this cryptic IG post he had last night:

The movie drops on Netflix October 11th.  Cannot fucking wait.  Here are the trailers just in case you live under a rock and haven’t seen them yet.  Show is going to be incredible and Vince Gilligan is a god amongst us.
