The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!

[Corin Stormhands]

So...Harry Potter spoiler text ahead...In your opintion...is Snape really bad or bad in a way that serves a good purpose? hmmmmm...?

[Corin Stormhands]

I have no idea what her percentage of the sales would be. But even if she gets just $1.00 per book, that would've been over $10 million in one weekend.

Nice work if you can get it.

Spoilers.... He's not working for Voldemort, IMO. Still not the world's nicest guy but I'm convinced he's not truly evil. I think he's very much a shades-of-gray character and will probably die in the next book in such a way that Harry feels just a little bad about hating him so much..

[JenB]

And when she started writing "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", she was a divorced single mother trying to get off welfare. Wow. Now that's an all-American rags-to-riches story. Except she's British.

My interventions worked! The pool went from a murky pea-green color to cloudy white yesterday to sparkling clear today! I did maintain a high level of shock and also used algaecide. I also cleaned the filter several times a day.

[Corin Stormhands]

more spoilers...So you think he's still really working with the Order? Someone speculated on one of the other threads that DD's "please Snape" was a plea to go ahead with what they both knew needed to be done. And in other news...I've seen a couple of people say that Hermione is Harry's sister...that's just bogus...right?...end spoilers...

[Corin Stormhands]

You'll probably find that's a typical need in the summer time.

[2Jedismom]

I'm thrilled. It was disappointing, you know? It got ahead of me suddenly!

Now I know to be extra diligent from here on out.

[JenB]

Hmmmm.... Wha? Hermione Harry's sister? That's just stupid. That one comes up every now and then in newbie fans and everyone else sits on them.

Yeah, Snape's working for the Order. Dumbledore clearly wouldn't plead for his own life. Dunno what brilliant plan requires him to have Snape murder him, but... Dumbledore sure believes in his own brainpower.

[Corin Stormhands]

So...how long do we have to wait for book seven?

And, is that "it?" Jr. said his girlfriend (current gf status: not certain) said she read there would be more books. But my understanding from the outset was that she had seven books planned.

[RosieCotton]

Hot here today. It's only nine thirty (not even) and already too warm outside.

Supposed to be over a hundred.

I'll just keep repeating "But it's a dry heat!" in hopes it makes me feel better...

[JenB]

At least two years, and that's it. No more. So she says. But some of us will be starting a mob to demand prequels.

[JenB]

Good day for indoors... glad to see I didn't kill the wireless when I brought it down so sister can hook in. I should be back around threeish.

Got to go label tapes for a couple hours.

[RosieCotton]

*sigh*

No interesting jobs on the main sites today.

Did you see that I applied at B&N and REI and Starbucks?

Probably should look into EMS, too.

[2Jedismom]

ACK! I'm outta milk! Can't make attic yogurt without milk!

Gonna walk to the Kum & Go and get some before it gets tooooo hot!

[HairOfTheDog]

I get green water if the fish tank has any direct sun... I'd imagine pools are tough to keep clear.

I can give ya some snails....

[2Jedismom]

Mmmmm....snails!

[Corin Stormhands]

I'm tellin' ya, just ask the nayber kids to come pee in the pool...

[Corin Stormhands]

I don't think I realized you still had fishes...

[Corin Stormhands]

And 'scuse me fer askin'...but how are the crabs?
