> Bright spot: Last time, we not only stayed open an extra few hours 
for the release, we had a big party at our B&N complete with games 
for the kids and a sorting hat. It was a blast.

Me:
My college roommate worked at a B&N in Manhattan that summer, and she 
had to wear round black glasses and a cape for the release party at 
her location.  Being a sophisticated city girl herself, not to 
mention one who'd never read the books, she was all sorts of unhappy 
about that, but I bet it was really cute--and I'm sure the kids loved 
it :o)
