Harry Potter

The new book has been named: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. I don't know if it has the same, magical ring to it like "Order of the Phoenix" or anything. I'm sure it will be entertaining, but the title sucks. "Harry Potter and the Mulatto" is basically what impression it gives.

Went to J.K. Rowling's website, http://www.jkrowling.com - it's pretty cool. There are five Easter Eggs throughout the site, but they're pretty easy to find. Dial MAGIC on the cell phone, use the eraser on the blank page in the Extra Stuff section to see the ingredients you need to double-click on throughout the site, click on the book with the question-mark and use the key in the Links section, and put the two medals where they belong in the Fan Site section. For the last one, click on the black thing that looks like an O-ring. It will take you to a door. Open the door. There are 5 bricks that you can click on. If you click on them in the order of 3-4-2-1-5, they will disappear and you can click on the fan to see the new title.

Pretty cool site - very creative. Sometimes if you stay on a page for a while, Peeves the poltergeist will knock things over and write his name.

Harry Potter mania. Just the right pursuit for a man in his mid-twenties . . . or not. I can't help myself, though. The books are great!
