Did anyone go to Comic Con?
I’ve been reading a bunch of Tweets from Josh and Zak about their time at Comic Con. Looks like they dove right in and hung out with lots of fans and stuck around for pictures. Did anyone get a chance to see either of them?
As usual it looks like the place was packed. Zak was taking pictures of the huge lines of people waiting to come up to their booth. Looks like a lot of fun though! They even took some time out for an impromptu investigation:

Halloween in July
I’m starting really early this year. My computer already has its Halloween costume and is sporting the Rest In Peace 2007 Windowsblind theme. It’s the same them I was using in October of last year, but I just couldn’t wait any longer. Funny thing is, it works perfectly under Windows 7. If you’re already looking to dress up your desktop this will take care of it in one click. Check out the picture below to see what the full theme looks like and check out this article to get some more ideas on how you can change the way Windows look. Personally, I think it should ship this way.

Paranormal Activity 2 – Do we really have to do this?
I have to say, I’m a little disappointed by this. I knew it was coming, you can’t have a success in Hollywood without the follow up sequel which then turns into a trilogy, but I was really hoping this was just going to stay a decent, "low budget" thriller. I thought this was a great movie except for the ending. I just hated the way the movie ended. I think there were dozens of betters ways to finish it off that would have been more mysterious and more compelling. But that aside, do you think this movie can capture the thrill and success of the original? Since the first movie was touted as being a real haunting which we all knew was false (you did know that right?) will this follow up actually have any suspense? We’ll certainly have to suspend A LOT of disbelief for this second go round. This could be a fun movie if you pretend the first one never existed…
