Paranormal Activity

Big game today against Ole Miss. Kick off at 2:30pm. This will be a tough one. I think we'll take care of business, but can't help but be nervous since Ole Miss was ranked as high as #4, and has the best team they've had in a million years.

I've been following the possible nationwide release of the movie Paranormal Activity.



Premise: "Soon after moving into a suburban tract home, Katie (Katie Featherston) and Micah (Micah Sloat) become increasingly disturbed by what appears to be a supernatural presence. Hoping to capture evidence of the haunting on film, Katie and Micah set up video cameras in their home, but they are not prepared for the terrifying occurrences which follow."

All of the buzz has been about how damn scary it's supposed to be. Of course I wanted to see it, but it wasn't playing in Birmingham. Through promotion they set up a site and claimed that if over a million people requested it, it would be shown nationwide. Well, they got their million requests, and it opens everywhere on October 16th. Yay!

I do have one concern though...the entire movie took only 7 days to make, and was done on a budget of $11,000. Sounds very Blair Witchy to me. I'm still bitter about the whole Blair Witch thing.

My youngest brother is in working in Tokyo right now. I can't wait to ask him about the people, the scenery, but being a foodie, I mostly want to know what he is eating! One summer he and I made a vow to not eat the same thing twice for the entire three months. He's a total food adventurer, and I know he won't disappoint. So Adam, if you read this - message me and let me know what you are eating. Especially if it involves fish eyes and stinky tofu!
