Harry Potter 7 Part 1

I'm not sure I trust someone who is trying to help kids when their handle is "sassypants"

That's a handle that needs an avatar.

I'm hoping and praying that you don't provide one.

I only wear pants to church. And they don't make anything even remotely close to sassy in my size.

I finally got around to watching HP7 part I. It took me three nights, because I feel asleep the first two nights. Sadly, that's because once you get past the wedding, it drags just as much as book 7 does.

I thought you also wore a guayabera

I just watched part I this weekend. It took me 2 days to finish it, mainly because I was watching with my 10 year old and we had to wait until the younger kids were in bed before we could start it.

I thought it was a good movie. It dragged a tad in the middle, but overall I enjoyed it. It had a solid ending with both of the concluding scenes. I'm looking forward to Part II, even though I can't remember a thing about how the book ends.

Spoiler for Just a refresher on the ending to help you out...:

Harry chickens out in his fight against Voldemort and runs off to Australia with Hermione. Snape retains his post as headmaster at Hogwarts. Voldemort appoints himself Minister of Magic and starts a ruthless campaign to kill all the Weasleys.

I did as well, late Saturday night with some neighbors. I'm not a big fan of the series but our company summer party is Part 2 a day before it officially opens so I thought I'd try to get some background. Honestly I was lost but thought it was entertaining nonetheless.

So I'm currently in my hotel room at the Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh. Two doors down from mine is the room where JK Rowling finished Deathly Hallows. Not gonna lie -- it feels special. I also visited the café where she wrote HP and the Philosopher's Stone (I'm in the UK and so will refer to it by its proper name), which is just a few blocks away. I love this city; I love JK Rowling even more.

So in a cage match who wins: JkR or Swifty?

Remember when she claimed that she wrote the ending first? LOL, we were all so stupid to believe her. At least she got a lot of money and gets to talk down to people about how she saved reading!

Spoiler for Stupid JK Rowling:

It is still really irritating to me that she took the cowards way out, pretty obviously to me, at the end and had Harry live instead of dying. Also really annoying that magic works to bring people back from the dead, unless it doesn't. I pretty much hate her.

I could dodge this question in a million ways (music v. literature), but will play: I'd have to go with JKR. Her work has had a more lasting (a characteristic which I know you value) impression, and has provided a lot more enjoyment. One moment in life I will never forget is when Deathly Hallows came out, and my wife and I took our 3 year old and 1 year old boys to Barnes & Noble at midnight to pick two copies up, then went home, put the kids to bed, and stayed up reading all night. When the boys woke up, and we didn't want to take a break or be bothered, we threw Nerds on the ground and that kept them occupied. When they came back for more, we scattered more. That bought us a good chunk of reading time without having to take care of the kids.

Thank you for your honesty.

When you're on your way out to Forks to visit sites from the Twilight series please stop by Seattle and say hello.

I was wondering if you wanted to meet in Kalama sometime and take a picture by the building with the banner that says "Twilight Book Town". When is a good time for you to get away?
