Saw Paranormal Activity 3 this afternoon...This series just gets better and better. :D And the bad guy has the same name as me! And it features one of my favourite childhood toys, Teddy Ruxpin! Going to see it again tomorrow :o

I haven't seen a good horror movie since Steven King's It and Pet Cemetary... I liked the ads for PA3 enough to want to go see it too. But want to see the first two first, just in case it is necessary.

Oh man, how much of a classic is Pet Cemetary! Judd is an absolute legend, one of my favourite horror characters for sure. :D

I can't believe you haven't seen the other two PA movies Griffin! :eek: Despite PA3 being a prequel to the previous two movies, I highly recommend watching the movies in order. To do otherwise would totally destroy the mystery and dampen the scare factor (which is amplified considerably in this latest installment). If you like this series you simply must check out the Spanish films Rec and Rec 2, they are equally amazing (and even more terrifying, especially the sequel).

One of my friend got 2/5 $3000 research scholarships which were for 3rd year/honours students.
I think that's more impressive :P

Oh, and he's doing them both pooling the money haha.

Thought i lost 2, and then 3 gaming magazines from the late 90's. Was hell pissed and almost started to believe i must have thrown them out....

Then, finally found them, buried under a mountain of TF backing cards in a box!

Especially happy cause i found there were about 10 more mags in there too, that i would have eventually wondered what the hell i'd done with them!

Congratulations. Although you are not the youngest grandparent I know. A guy in Sydney was a Grandfather at 36. His daughter who had the baby was 22:eek:

No matter how grumpy I may be, for some reason, this little tune always makes me feel irritatingly bobby...

It's cheesy and nerdy, but so annoyingly upbeat.:rolleyes:

Wow, nice double whammy of good news there. :D Congrats!

I started a new job today and was bowled over when I found out that not only do I get free lunch every day (in a glamorous dining hall no less), I also get 2 weeks off at Christmas which doesn't impact my normal annual leave! Working for a premium private school certainly has its perks it seems. :)
