here, puppy, puppy... Matt, is there any other way? I'd miss my dog.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm seeing a lot of HP fandom flipping out in sort of the same way Buffy fandom did in the later seasons. "That's not the character I built up in my head for umpteen months! I didn't get what I WANT! WAHHHH! Fanfic is better than canon!"
And that's even with most people really liking the book. But still. It's curious to see the dynamic assert itself again and think, "What is this reminding me of? Oh yeah...Seeing Red."

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Yes! I guess there's just something about 7-part YA fantasy epics.

erika, not a puppy (& hope your mom is fine) but have you seen www.baltimorecrime.blogspot.com?
Just ran across a mention of it in a local free paper.
Cat seems better.

Hi. Has anyone finished The Half Blood Prince yet? I just finished and I HAVE to talk about it with someone. I'm cursing the fact that I read so damned fast, I don't know anyone who's finished. Please? Anyone?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
CV, check the Literary thread.

What is even happening?
Hi Cybervixen, people are talking about it, in white font, in the literary thread. It starts here: Anne W. "We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good" Jul 16, 2005 7:54:20 am PDT but gets to the juicy pretty quickly.
