We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Hee! I love y'all's responses to the book, even if the book itself is...frightening. Though I do like the companion suggestion of the "Help, there's Conservatives in my Closet!".
I'd heard of "King and King" (and the uproar against it) but not the other two. Whatever, man. Indoctrination only goes so far...my Ashcroft-loving dad has a pot-smoking son, a queer daughter, and another daughter who married a guy who is black and Muslim. Not super conservative.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Whatever, man. Indoctrination only goes so far...my Ashcroft-loving dad has a pot-smoking son, a queer daughter, and another daughter who married a guy who is black and Muslim. Not super conservative.This gives me hope.
I sent the link to my brother noting that my niece's birthday is coming up soon. He thanked me. With no irony.
I think he missed my point.

"Help, there's Conservatives in my Closet!".
And the whole point of that book is the kid has to help them come out of the closet.
It's a fine but important difference between the liberal kidprop and the conservative kidprop: one seems to be focused on teaching hate, intolerance, and name calling. The other is like "people make their own decisions: rope or dope?"

I wonder why the British version of HBP is 40 pages shorter than the American version.

Hrumph! There's no Canadian version! Which would be the page number for the UK and $40.

Smaller font, I suspect.
