Never lie to a Pottermaniac about Harry!

There is this cook at work ... everyone knows someone like him ... he 
is an "expert" on any subject that you bring up. He has done it more, 
bigger, better, etc.

I was talking with my friend about the sweepstakes to win a trip to 
London for the Harry Potter premiere. This cook overheard our 
conversation. Then, he made a fatal mistake! He said, "I never even 
heard about Harry Potter until I heard you talking about it. Then I 
read this two page article about how they premiered the Harry Potter 
movie in California and it grossed over a billion dollars."

Well, you all just know that I challenged him on that one! I all but 
called him a bold faced liar! I gave him my email address and asked 
him to produce the article. He sent me the url for the Warner 
Brothers site. Not! 

He still insists that it happened and he read it ... two pages! I 
told him that if word got out that they were premiering Harry Potter 
in California ... that I knew about 2,000 people who would have been 
trying to get flight tickets to there. He won't talk to me about it 
now ... or anything else, for that matter. It breaks my heart.
