Minerva and Poppy COULD be a couple, but my intuition (and conviction)
is that McGonagall and Hooch are a couple, have been a couple since they
were 20-somethings. I have all these theories about their pet names for
each other are Minnie and Hoochie (even more secret pet names are Minute
Maid and Hoochie Koochie Girl), and they had a series of cats, each
named Tommy, until Minnie became a cat Animagus and Hoochie became
irrationally jealous that Minnie and Tommy might be gossiping about her
behind her back in Cat, so they gave that Tommy to a Gryffindor student
and didn't get another.

But, continuing to repeat things I've said in previous posts, I am not
interested in writing erotica about two sixty-something (okay, JKR said
70) ladies going to bed in flannel nightgowns and thick socks.

I read it and I must join the chorus of people shouting "I laughed my
head off!"

Other people have sometimes reported (I think on this list) dreaming
about the Harry Potter. I hope that makes it less scarey.

It sounds irrelevant as a precedent for domain names that actually ARE
web sites for fan material and existed before the movie deal.
