Neil, Heidi and Penny chastened me severely:
"Not necessarily."
"Not so fast there Mr. Goat!"
"Hold thy glee"

Rats! I thought if I overstated my case a little, it might help my odds. But
I still find the statement interesting. And, while I agree with Neil that
H/H may be more logical in the long run, I have a strong feeling that R-H
will be a more important romantic axis than H-H, at least in the next book.

OTOH, I could well imagine Ron and Hermione developing (over the next book
or two) a sputtering romance, that finally gives out when Harry and Hermione
discover each other. That might set off a crisis that would spur Ron to
herodom or betrayal. (Though I think Ron would end up doing something to
redeem himself in the latter case.)

Which theory has probably already been advanced by 76 talented fan fic
writers and shot down by 135 inspired critics. Oh well ...

Hasn't anyone founded an HP betting ring? Or how about a site setting
virtual odds on various predictions?? That would be a riot!

And it's bedtime, too.  I may drop by the chat tomorrow--if not, have a
blessed Christmas!!
