Apologies for the OT thread, but I've got nothing to do until I can get into
the catalogue. I hope to be reviewing Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Hagrid
and various relatively minor female students including Luna. Then I can do
some real work :)

We must think alike. I recently cut my hair after 8+ years. I have the leather
jacket, but I'm not up on the studs or major piercings. A link you might find
enjoyable Barry is http://www.cafeaulait.org/cryptonomicon.html which
investigates the mystery of Enoch Root into the Baroque Cycle. Enoch is almost
as mysterious as Dumbledore or Snape. He really is a wizard (and would qualify
as such according to the Waterhouse Tolkienian classification system).
