Another LOONNNNNNG post for you! :-)

 >Which character would you most like to meet, and why?<

    Well, I think I'd most want to meet Voldemort because it would be really cool to see complete and utter evil in action.  It would be so amazing to see something so bad, because I think it would give a sense of how corny the things I gripe about are, and that there are waaay worse things.  It'd be pretty cool to psycho-analyze him too and to find out the way his mind works.  Voldemort is most probablly a deranged genious gone terribly wrong, and it would be amazing to meet him.  The one downside would be in reality I'd probablly be murdered. :-)

> Which character would you most like to be friends with, and why? <

    I'd love to be friends with the Weasley twins!  It'd be so fun to be with people so mischievious and hysterical. The hilarity level would be immense and I'd laugh my ass off, which is always the best thing in the world to me.

romantically? Why? Describe a perfect first date<

    Hmm, well honestly I don't know.   I think it'd be terribly corny to say Harry, but he's just such a nice and honest and warm guy...plus there'd never be a dull moment with all the evil ambushes.  The Weasley twins are just hilarious, and I'd be laughing my ass off.  Draco is too evil in canon, but fanon Draco is...::sigh::.  Ron is too uptight, and Sirius is way too old for little 14 year old me.  ;-) So I don;t know...maybe a future character? The perfect date would probablly be a moonlit walk on South Beach and then to a club somewhere to dance the night away! ;-)

> And, which character would you most like to be? <

    Ehh, that's a toughy too.  Maybe Hermione for her drive...she can work hours on end and is sooooo determinated.  Or the Weasley twins, because they have so much fun.  Or a Quidditch player...I'd adore flying.  Or maybe Ron because he beats everyone at chess...or maybe some really sexy evil person that can get away with wearing leather like Draco...::sigh::

    Oh yea, and I have a few theories about the "The Order of the Phoenix":

1) The Order of Merlin was presented to Prof. Dumbledore and almost to Prof. Snape for capturing Sirius. Thus, the Order of the Phoenix must be a lesser award...but an award all the same. And I have a feeling Harry will be the recipient of this award, to be terribly cliche.

2) Fawkes is grossly underestimated. He has a bigger role in these books than most people see. He is the core of both Harry and our favorite Dark Lord's wands, and can heal people. Fawkes may not even be the pet of Dumbledore...but rather be protected by him. And, well, the meaning of a phoenix helps my point. A phoenix is a bird that lived in Egypt's desert for 500 years, and then consumed itself in flames to be born again from its ashes. A phoenix can also be a paragon or a person of perfection.

    AND, Jim Dale's tapes are blah.  His voice is really annoying to me, and even though I love the books dearly I can't stand to listen to the tapes.  He ruins it!  The way he portrays people's voices it terrible!  Especially when he talks for Hermione or any other woman.  It's soo scary!  :-(

Well, any thoughts?

A chemist's shop is scary.  I see spotted lizards.  Peace, Love, and Leprechaun repellant. If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you have tried. And last but not least, I really need to get a life.  Or the fifth Harry Potter book.  Either way."
