IT - The Clown Who's Gone Viral

Image
Is IT lurking in your home?  I'm sure a lot of you are scary movie fans, but I for one am not!  I'd rather sleep through the night and walk down the hallway in peace as opposed to living a timid life on high alert.  No thank you!  However, my sister is the exact opposite and loves the scary movie thrill, even if it means she doesn't sleep for a week.  She recently took it upon herself to go see the remake of "IT," which was released on September 8th.  As soon as I found out she was planning on going, my mom and I decided that we'd have to try and scare her.  We told ourselves that she'd brought this upon herself since she was willingly going to see it in the first place.   So, after remembering about having seen a viral video on Twitter a couple of days prior, I knew what I needed to do.  The viral video showed a girl scaring her roommate as soon as she arrived home from the movie theater.  It took Twitter by storm and has s...

Fall Favorites  The first official day of fall may not be until September 22nd, but the annual release of Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte has kick started the season a little early.  Also, if this is the first time you're hearing about it, you must be living under a rock because it took social media by storm earlier this month.  A four day live stream video kept everyone anxiously excited and eagerly awaiting its arrival.   However, Starbucks aside, fall is a time for football, bonfires, indulging on pumpkin flavored everything, sweaters/sweatshirts, and eating plenty of food to prepare for your winter hibernation.  With the weather starting to cool down, the time for all things comfy and cozy is upon us.  Comfort foods warm the soul and are easily justified as "part of the diet this week (and every week)".  It's a season filled with good times, good weather, good treats and even better photo opps to add to your artsy Instagram account or Twitt...

                                   Is it the low concession prices, spacious seats, or football season kick-off that has fans and Atlanta locals buzzing?  Yes, but that's not all.  The talk surrounding the brand new Mercedes-Benz Stadium delves into the vast pieces of technology builders and developers have chosen to install.  Jared Miller, Chief Digital Officer for Arthur M. Blank Sports and Entertainment, says "it's all about being able to bring technology to the consumer, to the fan, in a way that allows them to enjoy the event that they're here to see."  Once inside, it's clear that that's exactly what they've done.  With 2,500 4K resolution televisions set up throughout the stadium, you're guaranteed a "front row seat" to all of the action.  The scrolling 58-foot-tall, 1,100 ft., 360-degree halo board that lines the top of the dome is enough of an attention grab...
