[HPFGU-OTChatter] Catch-up on Cola and HP-Survivor!

[Denise R]

Let's see.  We have Faygo here, but I tend to do Minute Maid and Food Club
flavors (despite growing up with said Faygo).  Our Faygo's all 2-liters and
cans.  We lost the glass :( sometime ago.

RC was forbidden.  Mom and Dad started on Pepsi before I was able to realize
it (Mom told me), then switched to RC.  They drank that by the case until
the cases left.  Now, Coke's in the fridge for Carl, and Mom does the Diet
Coke thing.  Dad died in '98.  I always liked the Rootbeer-versions better,
prolly because of A&W drive-ins where you get a hotdog and a chilled mug. :)

When I was little, on Saturdays, mom would sleep in.  I'd get up, sneak out
to the kitchen, and find leftover popcorn (old-style: oil and kernels in a
pot popped until the lid moves off) and half-filled pop (RC) in glasses on
the drainboard (another of those pop-cola-soda questions?  Why do some call
it drainboard, others countertop?), and I'd reach out my arm and drink the
warm, flat stuff and eat the popcorn!

When I got to high school, I discovered that Dr. Pepper tastes just like it
but has bubbles (yes, I am saying Dr. Pepper tastes like day old cola!  I do
like Dr. P though on occasion).

Now, for my HP-Survivor.  I'm not into the shows.  I avoid Soap-Operas
(except Dark Shadows, which I don't get Sci-Fi), so I'm not surprised I
don't watch them.  It's interesting to hear others speak of them, though.

My idea.

Place all the characters from all 4 books on an island.
Who would you vote off first?
Who would you want to win the jackpot?

This includes beings.  (aka not beasts--no Fang, Fluffy, Norbert, etc....)
For the sake of clarification, all creatures: Crookshanks, Hedwig, etc...
belong with their owners, and will go if the owners are voted off.

For me, it's a toss up.  Either GL or Rita.

Ok, on with the thread!
