Hi all,
I'm with Neil. I've said I'm almost done so often . . .
I really haven't had much of a chance to work on my FAQs for the past few
weeks. My mother moved from Australia into my apartment while she looked for
her own place. Then my sister and her roommate arrived from Kansas City for
Christmas. They are all gone now so I will be able to get back to work.
Happily I only have two, though they are not small ones.
I wouldn't like to take any more either based on how long it's taken me so
far. I'm for recruiting new blood.
Hope everyone had wonderful holidays.
Margaret
P.S. Penny, I haven't had a chance to say congratulations yet. I had a
chance to spend some time with our youngest family members this Christmas,
two little girls, one eighteen months and one sixteen months. Ever watch
Inside the Actor's Studio? There's an oral questionnaire at the end of each
show which asks among other things 'What is your favorite sound?'. We
decided that a baby laughing would be our answer. Anyway congratulations!

> Audio Versions (short & easy folks)
> Chronology & Timeline
> Clothing (Wizarding World)
> Fan Clubs (again, short & easy)
> Houses of Hogwarts
> Predictions: GoF (this is really just a summary & ought not to be too
> difficult -- no new messages)
> Similarities between Voldemort & the Potters

> This is not as heinous as if one of us suddenly had to start from

> Hogwarts, I will take on the Houses of Hogwarts one as well.
