I have nothing against gay people but honestly I think all of this is REALLY, REALLY DUMB. It is all a stunt really it is. She just wants to stir people up some more. *rolls eyes*
Love,

I'm curious. Why is that a long commute? Arthur travels to London
everyday. I've always felt that many people apparated to whereever
they worked through the books. Only at Hogwarts did people live right
there or if they live in Hogsmead that is different. I have to agree
with the other poster. No reason Ron can't be part of the joke shop
AND an auror. I, too, have two jobs. Many of the technicians that
work with me at one job have businesses on the side (some are rural
things like sheep, or cattle; another I know is very high up in the
technical side, but he also has a little business where he locates
"junk" for people - parts for tractors and such - because he LOVES
looking for junk and looking for tractor stuff. He just turned it
into a business, with hired help and everything.)
