hi!

[Judy Roberts <jrober4@bellsouth.net>]

My name is Judy, and I am new here.  I recently discovered Harry 
Potter when I finally got curious enough to watch "Sorcerer's Stone" 
on Cinemax two weeks ago.  Much to my surprise, I liked it *very 
much* and found it quite charming.  Next, I watched "SS" a couple 
more times while I was doing things on my computer.  I decided I 
wanted to read the "SS" book, and bought this and the "CoS" one 
Wednesday morning.  That night, I began reading "SS" and enjoyed it 
very much, finishing it Saturday afternoon (reading it at bedtime 
and at work when I didn't have customers to wait on -- I work in a 
movie theater).  I started reading "CoS" right away, and I am 
enjoying these books more and more!  Meanwhile, Friday evening, I 
bought PoA and GoF, so I now have all four books.  Considering **how 
much* I am liking these books, I will probably end up pre-ordering 
the new one, though I am saving every spare penny I can for my trip 
to Scotland in June, where my boyfriend is.  And, of course, I will 
rent the CoS movie when it comes out next month, as I haven't seen 
it yet and very much want to see how it parallels the book.  

I am *delighted* that there is a place for us Grown-up fans of Harry 
Potter to come.  I must confess that I am 49 years old, and am 
wondering if there are any other HP fans in my age group here?  
Thankfully, HP is quite popular among many of my co-workers (at the 
theater), which helps in my new-found enthusiasm for the series!  
For now, I am just on the HPFGU - Movie list, until I have read all 
four books, since I wouldn't understand yet many references being 
made on the main list.   

Oh, one more thing -- I don't know if this is the right place to 
ask, but does anyone sell adult-size HP t-shirts?  In the United 
States?  Online?  

Looking forward to any discussions on HP, first on the Movie list 
and then on the Main list!
