It was that as well as the Arthur influence that made me think Moody was a good guy.  And, honestly, I have to admit that during reading the "bouncing ferret" I was laughing so hard, I couldn't think beyond the scene to the fact about abusing the students!

<Those are very good points.  Did we know from the start that Moody 
was a friend of Dumble's?  I'm thinking we did, plus that he was an 
auror, and that he didn't let Draco get away with his usual garbage, 
like Snape always does.  So, for these reasons, I fell into JKR's 
trap (as usual).  Now, as the Unforgivable curses are concerned, it 
made sense to me that the kids ~should~ see them, and in a controlled 
environment.  Spiders seem a fitting choice for this, opposed to say, 
puppies.  Cockroaches would have been better for me...>

There is one Simon: j/k!

<Big trouble. We need to invent a 'I am joking' or 'I am being ironic'
smiley! Or is there already one?>

Interesting!  And didn't she say we'd discover something rather interesting (aka big!) about Lily at the same time?

Book 7 for both characters.....  kinda supports the Lily/Snape theory!


<Snape, and then--
Rowling:  It--it is, isn't it?  I--I--there's so much I wish I could 
say to you, and I can't because it ruins--I--I promise you--whoever 
asked that question, can I just say to you that I'm--I'm slightly 
stunned that you've said that, and you'll find out why I'm so stunned 
if you read Book Seven.  And that's all I'm going to say.

Does that sound to you like he is going to fall in love OR that he 
might have been in love?  I am not of the Lily/Snape theory.  I 
actually hate that theory (I guess because I don't want it to be 
true).>
