Didn't someone on this list use to have "The 12th use of dragon blood 
is oven cleaner" as their sig?  If so, speak now and tell us where it 
came from!  I would bet the farm that it isn't in canon.  Luckily for 
me this is no risk, as I don't own a farm.

Still, sooner or later if you're a spy, you're going to lie outright, 
because so much of what you do each day has to remain secret.  
LV: "Where are you going?"  (Snape thinks:  "I'm going to Hogwarts to 
give Dumbledore the latest news, you scumsucking creep.")  Snape 
says:  "I'm going to Aberdeen to torture some Muggles, Master."
