Where is Fawkes?

Fawkes was Dumbledore's pet - and VERY loyal to him. It is uncertain whether or not a phoenix can only have one owner or if he can have more than one. If it is true that he can only have one, then Fawkes is probably gone for good as Dumbledore has died and is not coming back in any 'live' sense of the word.

Otherwise, you have to wonder how someone ends up with a Phoenix as a pet. Does the pet chose the wizard type of thing. If Fawkes chose Dumbledore, might he not come back and choose Harry?

Could Fawkes have gone to Godric's Hallow? How old is the phoenix? How many burning days has he had? I don't believe we have seen the last of Fawkes.

So many questions... not enough answers...

Sirius' Bike and Mirror

"The two-way mirror given to Harry by Sirius Black and his flying motorbike will return. In fact, Rowling has mentioned in one of her FAQs that the two way mirror "will help more than you think." Rowling refused to comment whether Sirius himself might in some way reappear, but she has also said that there was a reason why he had to die."

Why would Sirius have to die? I can only think that perhaps it is because Harry needs to stand alone in the last fight. He has to feel that it is all or nothing and given really, no other choice.

I would love to know what that two-way mirror is going to be used for. Maybe the crew needs to go intot he forbidden forest and talk with each other? emember the mirror is now 'in pieces'. There is more than one or two. Could it be like walkie talkies or cell phones to muggles? hmm...

Got any ideas??

And about that bike, how wonderful would that be if Harry et crew traveled on it to the different places?

More Deaths.. NOT Two Deaths

Again I saw in a print and online media article that there will be two deaths… NO! Get it right people. JKL Rowling has said that there will be two deaths she didn’t plan, as to how many, she didn’t say:

"This is the thing that I was very dubious about showing you... This is the final chapter of book seven. This is really where I wrap everything up, it's the epilogue. And I basically say what happens to everyone after they leave school - those who survive - because there are deaths - more deaths coming. It was a way of saying to myself, 'Well, you will get it, you will get to book seven one day. And then you'll need this!' So I'd just like to remind all the children I know who come around my house and start sneaking into cupboards that it's not there anymore - I don't keep it at home anymore for very, very, very obvious reasons. So there it is." – J. K. Rowling

Do any Weasleys die?

According to J.K. Rowling in the Cub Reporter Press conference following the release of the Half-Blood Prince, the Weasleys find themselves "in the firing line" as a direct result of their "blood-traitor" status.

A death of a Weasley has been foreshadowed since the first book, really, if you think about Ron on the real sized chess set. He put himself in harms way so that Harry could go on. Then there is Ginny almost loosing her life in the Chamber of Secrets And Mr. Weasley in the Order of the Phoenix. Then Mrs. Weasley’s bogart really maps it all out for us, doesn’t it?

I wonder which in this family will be able to survive, actually….

What does Hallows mean?

In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows we will find out what exactly hallows are, but for now we can speculate as I do not think that they will be far off the mark of the definition itself. Dictionary.com defines Hallows as a verb 'to make or set apart as holy'.

In the title however, it is used as a noun. A noun is a person, place or thing. So taking the verb definition and turning it into a noun we have a person who makes or sets apart as holy or a place that makes or sets apart as holy or a thing that makes or sets apart as holy. I’m going with the thing that makes or sets apart as holy… now doesn’t that open a whole can of fun speculation?

A thingceremony? ritual?that makes something person? Harry? other horcruxes?set apart as holyor perhaps clear of all of the Dark Lords soul… hmmm…

Does Voldemort have a Gringotts vault?

He must, he has to have loads of gold and jewels – where else would he keep his fortune? He has probably amassed quite a bit, but I wonder what else could be hiding in his vault… perhaps a horcrux! There are quite a few missing, and Gringotts is said to be the safest place besides Hogwarts. If anyone tries to break in, they get sucked into the vault and not found for approximately 10 years, eek!

Which horcrux would most likely be kept in a Gringotts vault? The tiara is at Hogwarts, Harry saw it, the ring and the diary have been destroyed, the snake is with the Dark Lord, if it is even a horcrux, the cup… is nowhere. Although I think someone has it, but it could be at the vault. Or the horcrux we don’t know about? This could be fun to speculate on…

Where will Harry find Dumbledore?

Name places Harry will be able to connect with Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Remember the headmaster portraits? Some of them were very famous wizards, some not, but they had portraits in different places. So wherever you find Dumbledore's picture, you'll find Dumbledore. Where would we be likely to find Dumbledore's portrait? Here are a few that we know of and a few that are speculation, do you have any more?

  • The Headmaster’s Office a Hogwarts - fact


  • All chocolate frog cards - fact


  • His family home?


  • St. Mungos?


  • The Ministry?

Why Hagrid may not die…

I just cannot see Hagrid dying very easily by a wizard, unless it’s Lord Voldemort himself. I know he isn’t indestructible, but geezz… he’s a giant. He had five aurors on him when Umbridge was there and they couldn’t even stun him. The only reason they ever got him into Azkaban was because he went peacefully.

I am sure Hagrid is not afraid to die. I mean, Dumbledore gave his life, didn’t he? Hagrid would feel he’d be honored to follow in Dumbledore’s footsteps. Although, this may pose a problem. Let’s hope that Hagrid – and his little brother – don’t go on a dark wizard finding and killing spree. That may be out of character anyway.

So, what’s the consensus? Does Hagrid die? Why do you think so?

Monday, April 16, 2007

Could the the Mirror of Erised help Harry?

The mirror is supposed to show you what you truly desire, so will it help Harry find what the horcruxes are? And if it does just by showing Harry his reflection, would that be proof that Harry is a horcrux? Now that would be pretty darn interesting…

If Harry looked in the Mirror of Erised, what do you think he would see? I think he would see all of the horcruxes destroyed with him holding them. It should be to hard for Harry to find the mirror, considering it is still at Hogwarts with everything else he needs like the sword, the tiara, etc.

Any better ideas out there? Put them in the comments section.

Hermione Is Named Head Girl in Harry Potter 7

While this could be true, it will only hold water if two other things are true:


1.) Hogwarts school reopens again.
2.) Hermione, Ron and Harry go back to school.


These two things are the only thing holding Hermione back, as she would get the spot with no problem otherwise. She is the brightest witch of her age, her grades are flawless and McGonagall likes her. Hermione has gotten more points for her house probably than any other student.

So yeah, I think Hermione will get the spot – if there is a spot. But I don’t think she’ll take it. Unless the plan is to go back to school and use it as a cover, like Fred and George did their 7th year.

What’s in store for Dobby in Harry Potter 7?


He’s on one of the covers of the books, holding the sword of Gryffindor high, so we know he’ll be making an appearance in the 7th book of the Harry Potter series, the Deathly Hallows. We know that he is willing to sacrifice himself for Harry and that his magic is more powerful then a wizards. Remember how he fended off Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets?

We know that Dobby shows up in times of great need for Harry. For instance, when the Chamber was about to be open in book 2 he tried to ‘help’ Harry by keeping him from school and in book 4 he helps Harry by getting him some gillyweed for the second task of the TriWizard tournament. I feel he might be helping Harry again by getting him the sword. At least I hope he will be helping and not just the type of ‘help’ he offered Harry in book 2.

So where is Fluffy?

We haven’t seen Fluffy since the first book, I wonder where is Hagrid keeping his three-headed dog? If it is at Hogwarts they need to put it to work for security. Although that didn’t work too well with protecting the stone, did it?

There has to be loads of places in Hogwarts where you could keep this type of hell-guarding dog, but you would think Dumbledore would have put out a few more warnings to students not to go certain places in the school then, huh? But where else could Hagrid keep him… seriously, anyone know where Fluffy is?

Update to this one: Thanks Steve for the info! JK Rowling said in an interview that Fluffy was released into the Forbidden Forest. I guess that is another good reason why students shouldn’t be tromping around in there.

Will Draco turn to the Order of the Phoenix?


He was given the ability to do so by Dumbledore, but only he and Harry know that now. Well, possibly Snape has an inkling, but he didn’t hear Dumbledore say it to Draco like Harry did. It all comes down to will Harry be able to forgive his enemies? Will he be able to put things aside? Will Draco?

If Draco does go over to the Order of the Phoenix, I will be hard pressed to believe in his goodness. While I feel sorry for Draco, he wasn’t given many options, he is really nasty to the core. And what’s more, he hates Harry. He has transferred everything that is wrong with his life – and there is a lot – to Harry Potter.

If Draco goes on in the plot and isn’t killed in the first chapter of book 7, I don’t think he will end up good. I just hope Hermione gets to have a bit of revenge.

Why did Lily Potter have a choice?

When Voldemort called on the Potter home to kill James and Harry, he did not come to kill Lily. Why? She was a mudblood, so it couldn’t have been out of respect for her family. She thrice defied him with James according to the prophecy, so it couldn’t have been because she would follow him then.

I hate to say it, but I think the Snape/Lily shippers may have been right. Lord Voldemort is very happy with Snape on the night he goes to kill the Potters. He has the prophecy and he thinks he will now dwarf any effort to ever die. There will be no one who is as powerful as he is and Snape helped. So when Snape asks the Dark Lord to spare Lily her life, he agrees.

It is the only plausible explanation… at this point.

Neville’s Birthday

Neville will turn 17 the day before Harry does. This will make him an adult in the wizarding world and I have to wonder if it will signal a spark to one of my older theories: Neville’s parents put a spell on him very early in life to ‘forget’ his magic. Think about it… he was one of the boys that could have been a part of the prophecy! No one knew who it was when these boys were born. Neville’s parents were great wizards, they would want to protect their son. What better way than to ‘turn him into a squib’? Then he wouldn’t have ‘the power the Dark Lord knows not’. The family could hide in plain sight and not have to go into hiding like the Potters.

The other part of this is how much JK Rowling has written about Neville and his lapse of memory/ability. Then his coming into his ability in the DA. But he is still not a great wizard, is he? With his parentage, shouldn’t we wonder why not?

So what if this spell is over when Neville becomes an adult wizard like the spell Dumbledore used for Harry? Neville is going to be one hec of a wizard then, huh? Look at what he has been able to accomplish under his parent’s spell. I think Bellatrix is in trouble.

And I still contend that there has to be something to the gum wrapper Neville’s mother gave him at the hospital. JK Rowling loves gum, the wrappers are all over her desk. There is something I’m missing about that one…

Rowena Ravenclaw’s Horcrux Is a Tiara

Something belonged to Ravenclaw that was turned into a horcrux as the only known relic of Godric Gryffindor, besides the sorting hat, is the sword. Scouring the books looking for clues and listening to the audio books in the car I’ve paid close attention to when Harry or other characters are touching stuff that they are not paying attention to. This is a very dangerous practice in the wizarding world too. I’m surprised that Harry isn’t more careful after what he found at Sirius’. Anyway, I digress.

In the Room of Requirement is the Half Blood Prince’s book hidden in a cabinet. On said cabinet Harry puts a bust(can’t these talk like photos?) and puts a silver tiara on top of it. Why is there something of this value laying there amongst the other broken and junkie objects?

Tom Riddle(aka Voldemort) killed three people the night he killed his father. He could have made more than one horcrux at the time. Then hiding it where everyone else hides their stuff, in the room of requirement. Remember too that he wanted a teaching post. Dumbledore assumed it was to find more relics, but what if it was to get one of his horcruxes back?

Will Ron Weasley die in Harry Potter 7?

I really, really hope not. There isn’t a big reason why he should die, except that he is a main character and JK Rowling did say she goes after the main ones. Eeep! Now, lets take a look at what Ron may be up to in the 7th addition of this series.
  • He’ll be by Harry’s side. He always is, even when they were fighting in the Goblet of Fire he tried to warn Harry about the dragons.

  • Ron will grow in some way. I’m hoping he gets enough maturity to tell Hermione how he really feels. He’s grown in some way through each book. Makes him an interesting and likeable character and adds to Harry’s persona.

  • He will stay by Harry’s side until the very end of the book where something will prevent him from remaining at Harry’s side. Look at all of the other books, to see what I mean.

  • If he lives, Ron will end up with Hermione. Of course, she’ll need to live too ;-)

  • He often sacrifices himself for Harry, remember the chess set? And when he thought the Grim was going after Harry under the Whomping Willow.

Now according to Richard Jones on a Mugglenet editorial:


“It is also interesting that JKR repeats the joke in her "Fantastic Beasts" book: on the back of the first page, Harry and Ron are playing a game of Hangman when one of them writes: ‘You die Weasley.’”
Again, Eeep!

Ginny Dies in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?

Ginny Weasley is someone, maybe the only someone, that Voldemort can use against Harry. This is why Harry breaks it off with her in HBP. I really feel something will happen at the wedding and Ginny will end up back with Harry. Which makes her chances of dying go way up.

Then again, Ginny has come into her own as a witch and is able to stand up for herself. She did make it into the Slug Club and is descended from some very powerful wizards who were part of the Order of the Phoenix. Look at how resourceful and powerful her siblings are.

Harry Potter 7 - SPT and the Prophecy

Five things we know about the prophecy:
1.) Dumbledore heard it, therefore was able to repeat it.
2.) Harry knows it.
3.) Prof. Sibyll Trelawney said it and it is thought she could retrieve it since she did give the prophecy.
4.) Snape knows that Trelawney gave it to Dumbledore and he is on his way to Voldemort.
5.) Voldemort wants it.

That last bit really sums it up, doesn’t it? Voldemort wants the prophecy and he if ever finds out that Trelawney is the one who gave it and he could get access to her, well, she’d be dead, wouldn’t she? Here is a big test for Snape, is he good or bad? Will he tell the Dark Lord... or not?

What is Aunt Petunia hiding?

She is hiding something, that was admitted by JK Rowling at the Edinburgh Book Festival on August 15, 2004, when asked if Aunt Petunia was a squib:

“Good question. No, she is not, but—[Laughter]. No, she is not a Squib. She is a Muggle, but—[Laughter]. You will have to read the other books. You might have got the impression that there is a little bit more to Aunt Petunia than meets the eye, and you will find out what it is. She is not a squib, although that is a very good guess. Oh, I am giving a lot away here.”

So, is she a witch? No, Jo says she is not on her website.

Dumbledore’s howler says ‘remember my last!’ JK Rowling said on her site that he meant remember my last letter, as if there was a letter before the one that came with Harry the night his parents were killed and Dumbledore dropped him off. Now, why would Dumbledore be writing to Petunia about? If she isn’t a witch or a squib, why would she get a letter from the Headmaster of Hogwarts? Maybe as the mother of a newly born wizard? Doesn’t Hagrid say somewhere that Harry had his name down to attend Hogwarts since the day he was born… would all wizards be like that? There has to be a way for the school to know – they found Hermione, did they?

What do you think?

Luna dies in Harry Potter 7?

Remember why Harry broke off his relationship with Ginny? He was afraid the Dark Lord would get wind of it and use Ginny against Harry. Well, Voldemort has to know about Luna going to Slughorn’s Christmas party with Harry. Peeves told the whole school that ‘Potty luvs Luny’! how many scary characters were at that party? A vampire, Snape, Draco crashed, etc. Slughorn is a Slytherin, you remember.

I’m worried about Luna. I’m afraid she isn’t going to make it. Any thoughts, arguments or revelations? Leave a comment...

Lily’s Eyes in Harry Potter

I have to admit that I have been waiting for years to find out what is up with Lily’s eyes and the fact that Harry has them. I keep thinking that JK Rowling didn’t mean to make her statement about them so important, but then another character in the books will bring up the fact that Harry has his mother’s eyes and I start wondering again.

Old magic is what protected Harry, old magic from his mother’s side of the family. And he has his mum’s eyes… anyone else stumped? Or am I pulling at straws??!?

How will Bellatrix Die in Harry Potter 7?

She is just one of the characters built to be hated. Vile and evil, she makes things scary and interesting. So, we know she history at some point… but who will kill her?

Personally, I’m hoping it’s Neville Longbottom who gets the opportunity – and he takes it. He deserves the retribution for what she did to his parents. But I fear that Cissy or the Dark lord himself will end up killing her. Why, I’m not sure but Cissy has threatened and the Dark Lord isn’t happy with her at the moment.

The one scenario I really hope does not happen is Harry to kill her after Neville tries and fails. Neville really needs this feather in his cap – if he lives.

Who do you think will kill her off?

Why did Madame Bones die and what does it have to do with Harry Potter?

If we are all in agreement that Harry will have to go looking for the horcruxes in book 7, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows then it is just a small step to agree that Voldemort is probably already doing so and has been – even through the Half Blood Prince book. This may explain some of the deaths and character that went missing. This blog post will focus on Amelia Bones, aunt of Susan Bones and was Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

She was a very powerful wizard and it was said that Voldemort himself must have killed her. Why would the Dark Lord spend his time on her? She was never a Death Eater, she wasn’t related to him, so why? Perhaps she was related to someone that connected indirectly to Voldemort – or at least where he may have placed part of his soul.

I have to wonder if Amelia Bones was related to Hepzibah Smith and may have gotten the cup back if it had been found. It is a pretty good theory, you have to admit! Harry will have to take a closer look at that tapestry and genealogy book at number 12 Grimmauld Place. Psssttt… Harry, they're in the drawing room….

Harry Potter Is a Horcrux


I feel all the evidence points to this conclusion. Although, I think it is a leap to think that Harry will have to die because of it. Dumbledore did tell Harry that he thought Voldemort transferred some of his power to Harry on the day he try to kill him. But Dumbledore either didn’t think about how much power he transferred(doubtful) or he again made the mistake of not telling Harry the whole truth(most likely).

Since book 1, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone when Hagrid told Harry “that’s no ordinary scar.” He was right, it was the mark of Voldemort’s soul. When Dumbledore told Harry he was protected by his ability to love, he surely meant that the love Harry carries around with him is helping him fight the evil that is inside of him. Add the fact that Voldemort can’t stand to possess Harry. Is it because two pieces of his soul can’t be in the same body? That would explain it.

When Harry gets to Godric’s Hallow and isn’t able to find a Horcrux there, he may figure out that he is indeed the last horcrux. Of course there is more evidence, I’m just not privy to my books at the moment.

If you don’t think Harry is a horcrux, what do you think the scar is? Let me know any supporting or not supporting evidence in the comments area.

Do Draco and Lucius share the same fate?

Both of the Malfoy men have gotten themselves in quite a bit of trouble with their Lord. Poor Narcissa is going to be in a state! Maybe Snape can help her. Make no mistake about me, however, I feel they pretty much deserve what they get. Dumbledore pleaded with Draco to make a different choice – yes, he still has time – but he could have done it right there. He didn’t and Dumbledore’s death was the result.

I think Voldemort will kill Lucius as soon as he gets to him. I believe he wanted to be able to cause Lucius more pain by having his son killed first. I think Snape will help Draco, and he may make it to the end of book 7. But daddy-dearest is probably gone as soon as he shows up in the book.

Will Draco change his mind and help Harry? Good question to think about for another post.

Agree? Disagree? Couldn’t care less? You know where to comment!

What is the important piece to Lily Potter?

“Now, the important thing about Harry's mother - the really, really significant thing - you're going to find out in two parts. You'll find out a lot more about her in book five, or you'll find out something very significant about her in book five, and you'll find out something incredibly important about her in book seven.” – J. K. Rowling; The Connection (WBUR Radio), 12 October 1999

What did we find out about Lily Evans in book 5, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix? She stuck up for Snape when he was being bullied by James. She is a mudblood. I hadn’t been sure about that just because of Petunia, but Snape made sure we were all aware of that fact when he called her one. We also found out her protection went so far as keeping Harry protected all of his childhood while he is with her family - the Dursleys.

I feel we found out much more in book 6: Slughorn talked about her, her charm, and cheekiness. I feel like we got to know her more through him.

That is what we have, perhaps her feelings for Snape are what we should be looking at? What do you think?

Where is the cup horcrux?

The cup that belonged to Helga Hufflepuff is not any where that is easily figured out with the clues we have to date. Although, I believe we may just be missing something. Let us look at a few a pieces of fact:

*Helga Hufflepuff charmed the cup in some way. Hepzibah Smith claimed she did know what it did, she hadn’t investigated it.
*The Smith family inherited it from the Hufflepuff family.
*We know that Tom Riddle, Lord Voldemort, stole it and killed Hepzibah, laying the blame on her old elf.
*It is described as "a small golden cup with two finely wrought handles", with an engraving of "a badger".

So, where could it have ended up?

*Malfoy’s home
*Borgin and Burkes
*Are the Bone’s related to the Smiths? Is this why Amelia Bones was killed by Lord Voldemort himself? Did she have Hufflepuff’s cup?

Any other ideas out there?

Replacing Transfiguration Teacher at Hogwarts


Who will be the next Transfiguration teacher with Minerva McGonagall becoming Headmistress? Will it be someone we know – perhaps someone from the Order? One thing to consider, though, the Headmistress could continue to teach. Just because Dumbledore didn’t teach any classes doesn’t mean that a Headmaster can’t teach a class.

On the other hand, someone like Moody can come back too. They will think that Harry is coming back to school and needs extra protect, right? Moody would have the qualifications as you need a NEWT in Transfiguration to become an auror like he is.

Harry’s Task at Hand

Let’s take a look at what Jo says about what Harry’s task is in the book 7:

"Dumbledore's guesses are never very far wide of the mark. I don't want to give too much away here, but Dumbledore says, 'There are four out there, you've got to get rid of four, and then you go for Voldemort.' So that's where he is, and that's what he's got to do." – JK Rowling

So, that is what Harry has to do in order to have a chance at any sort of normal life: the horcuxes must be found and eliminated, then Voldemort must be found and eliminated. This is potentially problematic, as Hermione would say, because destroying those horcruxes can be deadly to begin with, let alone facing the Dark Lord.

I also have to wonder how quickly Harry will be able to do these tasks. It took all of book 6 to find and a horcrux, and then only to find out it wasn’t one. The book must be at a pretty fast pace to including finding 4 horcruxes. Unless, they are in the same place. Like if RAB went looking for them all? It’s reaching, I know.

What is Kreacher’s Importance?

I wouldn’t do well in S.P.E.W. Sorry Hermione!

I’m not sure where this house elf will fit in, but he has to be important in some way. I think he knows where the locket is – I go back and forth as to whether I feel Mundungus took it or Kreacher has it. If house elf has it, do you think he would have given it to Draco or put it in the malfoy home? Hmmm… it’s a thought worth looking into perhaps later.

Right now I think Kreacher is more important because he accompanied Regalus Black to get the locket. That is how he knows it's impotant! There is something more to be learned about that long ago trip and that vile house elf knows it. He is also a ticket into what Bellatrix is doing, isn’t he? I wonder if Harry will use him in that way. I’m not sure if I would trust him to be around the death eaters, would you? He may spill some secrets that we don’t want them to know.

Huh? How many die in Deathly Hallows?

JK Rowling quote: "The final chapter is hidden away, although it's now changed very slightly," she said in an interview broadcast on Monday on Britain's Channel 4. "One character got a reprieve, but I have to say two die that I didn't intend to die."

I have a bone to pick with many in the media: Quit saying there will be two deaths in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. There will be so many more, even secondary characters count! Jo didn’t say that two people die here, she said two died that she didn’t intend to kill off. There is a BIG difference.

At least I think so, how about you?

Hermione Dies… Yes? No?

Hermione will be there until the very end, we all know that. Hec, it’s on the cover. But I think Harry will believe that Hermione is dead for a time. Draught of the Living Death is in the series for a reason. There is nothing in these books that are not there for a reason. Then you have the mandrykes root that can restore wizards. Two things we need to pay attention to. And there is good reason to believe that Hermione will be the one to need/use these things.

In A Winter’s Tale by Shakespeare, Hermione the Queen “dies” to keep from getting killed by the then jealous King and is then restore back to life by her friend. So who could give Hermione the Draught? How about an old potions master like Snape? Remember, he is a good guy – kind of – we know that he doesn’t serve the Dark Lord for real, we just do not know why. Remember what Snape said, "I can even put a stopper in death."

So there you have it, Hermione dies, at least for a little while.

Digg this story!

Is the Sorting Hat a Horcrux?

I’m not sure how anyone could think this is possible, although anything is possible, but the Dark Lord never did get into Hogwarts in anyway that he would have had the power to enchant or charm the Sorting Hat. Even if he did, I think the hat is smarter than Voldemort. It has a piece of Godric’s brain in it, along with Slythrin’s too. The Dark Lord is evil and an exceptional wizard, but he isn’t always ‘smart’, is he?

I think the hat would have been able to defend itself a bit if it had been used in such a manner. Therefore, I really don’t think it’s a horcrux.

Agree? Disagree? Let me know why in the comments section!

Testing...

I know boring, but I have to test to see if it is right, ya know?

How about I just add that I think taht one of Percy's parents will die before the bighead comes to his senses. Agree or not, you know he is a big head.

So, what took you so long?

I am not sure why it has taken me so long to start my own Harry Potter blog, since I'm such a great fan of the series and the movies and most of the fan sites. Here the 7th book is coming and I don't even have decent graphics, eek! Looks like I'm going to have to get crackin' before Voldy shows up and dies laughing at this pitiful site.

While you wait, I recently wrote about who dies in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
