WB Merchandise

I made it to my local WB store last night for the first time since July
and found that they in fact had in stock a very large selection of
children's size shirts, backpacks, gym bags with Quidditch logos, a
picture frame, temporary tatoos, and information on a $100 print that
showed a boat powerlessly gliding to the distant castle, with the Heroes
in it, seen from behind.  I did get myself an adult sized Hogwarts'
crest shirt.  I found somewhat disturbing the floating-eye-region
Voldemort shirts, and also the fact that this was a decoration inside
the notebooks that had "Harry Potter" and the lightning flash on the
front.  Too much pandering to kids who say "wouldn't it be cool if Harry
went dark?".

Not remembering where it was that had the golden snitch key fobs, I was
searching among those various WB characters key rings, and was suddenly
struck with a vision which might be an out-take from the movie - - Harry
on broom goes zooming towards the yellow thing bobbing along on
undersized wings, and suddenly diverts at the last second as the
hovering yellow things turns around in mid air and says "I tawt I taw a
Quidditch match!" -it turns out to be Tweetie instead of the golden snitch.....
