...easy to find at large events, easy to pick out in snatches of conversation (did you hear that PJ won again?), to distill from the clothes that people wear (did you see their matching shirts?). So I wrote some e-mails, plied some contacts and started imagining a plane ride to Kentucky, paid for by The Crimson. I’d sit behind the captain and coach, nestled among the younger team members, jotting down exceptionally good quotes, helping to carry the evidence tubs when we departed.

The tension builds slowly, as the apprehensive Katie, a student, and the skeptical Micah, a day trader, feel the first emotional tremors. The movie keeps us in its grip because we never leave the couple's haunted property and because...
...roadway the country's first dedicated green corridor. U.S. 12 began as a patchwork of ancient Native American trails and became Michigan's first paved road, stretching 212 miles from Detroit to Chicago and connecting 25 quaint towns, each about 12 miles (or a day's lazy horse ride) apart.
