On topic: any speculation, guesses, anecdotes, trivia, or whatever.
What SHOULD NOT Be Posted: SPOILERS of any kind. If you have some insider knowledge of something or if another hacker breaks into something or if someone somehow steals a copy of the book . . .
Basically, if you have ANY reasonable belief that you might actual KNOW SOMETHING which might spoil it for folks DON'T POST IT.
At the very least, make it INVISIBLE.
To do that, use the FONT tag with the option COLOR=WHITE. When you do that, the text will only be visible if you highlight it.
Example: This is < FONT COLOR=WHITE> invisible </FONT>. This is NOT.
Example: This is invisible . This is NOT.
Anyway, we all know how much time is left anyway.
Now, let me put it this way: Is that a STUPID question or what?
I mean, if Voldemort's not dead at the end of this then the story is NOT finished. There can be no locking him up in Azkhaban or anything like that. No trapping him in the Chamber of Secrets. It's all or nothing with him, that's how he marked Harry in the first place.
Of course he has to die! The questions should be How? and By whose hand?
(Will there be another Darth Vader to save Luke from the Emperor?)

Reminds me of that funny scene in “The Devil Wears Prada.”
Meryl Streep, a Cruella deVil clone, threatens her assistant with firing unless she can produce an advance Harry Potter manuscript for her twins. By 3 pm. that day.
Potter Ping!
It’s going to be the end of an era for me. Almost ten years of waiting for the next book.
My husband has been informed that I get the book first. I can always put another copy on preorder at B&N if he has a problem but my HP fan cred is better. Heh, I was at a friend’s last weekend and he was showing off his deluxe edition HP books and asking me if I thought he should get that again, so I mentioned how I collect the series in British... guess I won that geek contest.
Rowling has said that someone will die in the last book. Who do you think it is?
I certainly wouldn’t mind if that annoying Draco Malfoy turned out to be one of them.
There ought to be a law.
Yee haw!!!!! I have started my re-read of all the books. Not sure what I will pick up the sixth time that I haven’t picked up before, but it will be the first time since having read book 6 that I am starting at the beginning again. And no, I don’t have too much time on my hands or I would have done it months ago. It’s go time!
I'm not so geeked about the movie but I'm climbing the walls for the book!!!! AAAAAAH!
With the last book in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, due to release on July 21, several fake online versions of the book are popping up.
Even as the last of the Potter books, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows continues to be eagerly awaited by fans across the world, various online versions of the book continue to pop up, trying to cash in on the popularity of the character. While Rowling has reiterated that these are but fake versions of the book, there is no denying the fact that they are being curiously perused by fans. But do Potter lovers believe them to be genuine? How many fans are actually going through these e-versions ?
Opinions? Reactions?
Anyone want to read any of them?
Anyone want to write any of them?
Someone put together a bunch of Hermione clips (among others) and put it to the tune of the Irish Rovers' "Lily the Pink".
