>I was supply teaching today, when a school secretary popped her head round
the door with something one of the boys had forgotten.  She told me that
there was a post it with the boy's name on it attached to the bag.  Looked
down and it was for a James Potter.  Managed to conceal the grin long enough
to hand the boy his bag, until the class got up to leave and one of his
friends yelled 'Come on, James, father of Harry!'

>Isn't it great... must be bad for children called Potter!

Here's a quote from Monty Python's Flying Circus that I saved (I have a .txt
document with tons of quotes from everywhere). Let's hope Harry Potter never really
becomes like this when he's older.

"It was a day like any other and Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Brainsample were a perfectly
ordinary couple, leading perfectly ordinary lives--the sort of people to whom
nothing extraordinary ever happened, and not the kind of people to be the center of
one the most astounding incidents in the history of mankind...so let's forget about
them and follow instead the destiny of this man (camera pans to businessman in
bowler hat and pinstripe suit)...Harold Potter, gardener and tax official, first
victum of Creatures from Another Planet,"--Narrator, MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS

Heh, I love Monty Python.

Another "Potter" sighting is one "It's a Wonderful Life" where the evil boss is
named Henry Potter.

From,

Anake
