I was watching some stupid movie on Halloween called Troll. It starred Michael Moriarity and Sonny Bono and some kid.

The hero of the movie was the kid. Who fought the Troll using magic. His name was Harry Potter.

The movie came out in 1986. The first J.K. Rowling book came out in 1998.

So what's the deal with the name "Harry Potter?" It seems a real unlikely coincidence.

I don't know, but isn't someone buried in potter's field a pauper? The books are about a poor kid, who through hard work and strong sense of fairness and right and wrong, is making something of himself.

I *think* that he's not just praying himself to be better offends some...
