Why I love HPfGU

[Rachel Bray]

Because where else can you find a talking goat, car, etc?

:-)

This list also justifies my obsession.  I have a rather 
snotty lot for a family and (excepting my mother, who 
adores the books and movie) they've pretty much made fun of 
me for a couple years now for loving "a child's book".  My 
sister-in-law (who is much too old for her age, 26 going on 
68) even goes as far as to act like she's very interested 
in it by asking me rather excitedly about the movie and 
then rolls her eyes when I tell her how much I enjoyed it.  
This community reminds me that there is no age limit to 
good literature.

Oh, by the way, I got a good laugh at Thanksgiving at my 
grandparents' house.  My friend (she lost both parents 
about three years ago and my family has pretty much adopted 
her) and I both wore HP themed sweatshirts at Thanksgiving. 
 She wore a Hogwarts one, I wore my Quidditch one.  My 
mother then ran home to get something she forgot and came 
back wearing her Gryffindor shirt.  There should be some 
great family pictures being developed soon.  :-)

Anyway, this list gives me great laughs, food for thought 
and different points of view on odds and ends, whether it 
be about Harry Potter or slang usage or whether it was an 
apple or a kumquat that lead to the downfall of Eden.  

And there is an air of true friendship/comradery here that 
I just adore.
