    I'm honestly having a nerd moment here. If anyone finds this unnecessary or irrelevant, I apologize. I just find it super exciting.

    I work in healthcare, and I've had many casual conversations with patients about TFA recently. Two weeks ago, a random patient tells me that he's neighbors with Adam Driver's dad, and that a lot of his family lives in the Lakewood area of North Little Rock, AR (where I am). I nodded and told him that was cool, but I honestly didn't believe him. Then today, my boss tells me that he knows Adam Driver's dad, Joe Driver. So I Google it all, and Joe Driver's family is indeed, from central Arkansas.

    Ahhhhhhhhhh!

    If I do, I'll be sure to caress his face and stare longingly into his eyes.

    I heard they were from Arkansas! I had no idea that his family lives blocks from me!

    What healthcare facility do you work at?

    I live in Park Hill! SMALL FREAKING WORLD!

    I'd flip blast if I saw Adam Driver at the Mapco on JFK one day...

    Another random fact...he was also a Marine and way back started Arts in the Armed Forces and does drama for veterans

    It's like when I had one of the first official screenings of my last film at The Soho House "secret club" in Beverly Hills, California, and at my after party at the club, I somehow ended up having a cigar with Tobey Maguire, Margot Robbie, and Ewan McGregor . I didn't ask where they live, but you should try to meet his dad now that you know where they live .
