HBP "Funny"?????

[artsylynda at aol.com]

Changing the subject a bit here . . . in several interviews either  on TV or 
in print (Entertainment Weekly's interview this week, for instance),  HBP is 
referred to as "the funniest book in the series so far" or else they say  the 
script is going to be very funny.  In Entertainment Weekly, Yates says  HBP 
will give Dan a chance to stretch his comedic wings which is good because  Dan's 
very funny (paraphrasing here).  I agree, Dan's very funny, and I'd  LOVE to 
see him in a comedy, but HBP "funny"???  This is the only book in  my LIFE that 
I've ever thrown across a room in anger when I finished reading  it!  I know 
it has amusing moments, but most of the ones I can think of  involve Ron - the 
love potion-laced chocolates and how goofy he acts then, or  his snogging 
sessions with Lavender.  Where is HARRY funny in HBP?  I  must have missed it.  
Ideas?  I would love to see both Dan and Rupert  doing some genuine comedy - I 
think they'll be wonderful at it, since they're  both funny guys - but I must 
have missed where Harry's funny in HBP.  Can  any of you point out those 
places for me?  Thanks.
