If you can handle The Poisonwood Bible (which is what I see you're reading right now) you can handle this. Happy reading :)

Yes, that might be it, but it might also be a front, at least partially. Snape is incredibly good at deception and I think he might have purposefully transferred his hatred and resentment of James Potter onto Harry, and allowed that attitude to become his public face towards him.

You're approaching my Snape theory here a little, Claire. And I'll cover this with a spoiler tag because it uses crucial info from all the books including the 6th.

Humph. Kook and Cajunmama, you girls need to tell your guys to shape up... how would they like it if you gave them crap about their interests/hobbies??

I like to lounge on the couch with tea or water. I don't like reading in bed much though.

I'm baking cookies!!!:D And then going grocery shopping with my sister. Tomorrow I'm going shopping for a wedding dress! *insert girly squealing here* :p

Me too:D I enjoy the raised eyebrows when I tell people that.

I thought Randal was being the bitchy one in the conversation in front of George and Carolyn. Rebecca mentioned that she put the one guy on the table in the first place and Randal was like, no, I don't care what you said, I want him. I actually thought it was cool when Rebecca said, "Ok so do...

Yeah I got scammed once because I believed some guy's story about needing to get home to his kids and not having money for gas. I was a college freshman, oh well. Has a complete stranger ever asked you something personal and if so how did you respond?

Thursday the 13th here. I just missed it. What do you mean, it was meant to be the 14th? Did your mom have a C-section? My mom did but it was because I was choking on my umbilical and the docs had to get me out.

of kippers to come

Woah, MonkeyCatcher... we have the same birthday, exactly 6 years apart! How cool is that :D :p

I always think of numbers whenever I look at my reflection in a mirror in a dark room. This is my safeguard against thinking (or saying) a ghost's name and therefore allowing said ghost to appear in the mirror and break through *sheepish grin* I read a scary story about that when I was smaller...

Kenny! Baudelaire... yesssssssss :D Have you read it in the French or just in translation? I also LOVE T.S. Eliot. "The Waste Lands" is just indescribable in its beauty and depth. Here's my favorite passage: "'You gave me hyacinths first a year ago; 'They called me the hyacinth girl.' —Yet...

I was... 19 years old at the time of the 9-11 attack on America 17 years old on the first day of Y2K 15 years old when Princess Diana was killed in a car crash 12 years old at the time of Oklahoma City bombing 12 years old when O. J. Simpson was charged with murder 10 years old at the...

You could visit classrooms and give book talks. Those are usually successful from what I've read. In case you're not sure what those are, it's when you bring one or more books to each class, which are age appropriate and should spark interest with the kids, and give a little talk designed to...

American copyright law is steadily moving more and more to the side of the creator. Powerful people and corporations have been working very hard to extend the period of copyright and to make copyright law even more strict, such as with the Digital Millenium Copyright Act. This makes it...

Yeah they will and you can bet that Melissa and Markus will be there:eek: . I don't envy either Randall or Rebecca at all when it comes to that. But I too am SUPER glad they're the final 2, they deserve it.

I'd rather see Rafe or Danni make it... they seem like decent people. I don't like Steph, she's a big liar and she's really fake IMHO.

Well ususally not too much, since I'm already stuffed from the various coffee cakes, cookies, banana breads, and such that I've consumed already that morning. But in the past my dad has made things that can just be scooped onto plates and then taken somewhere else (my dining room table isn't...
