Well my story isn't really cool but I think it's pretty funny. The 
first time I heard about HP was on the news, the day that GoF came 
out. The reporter who was there at the launch was also named Harry 
Potter so these little kids would come and ask for autographs. I had 
no idea how funny this was until I started reading the books, so now 
everytime I'm watching the news and this particular reporter comes on 
and says things like "This is Harry Potter reporting form....' I 
always crack up laughing.

parents can get hooked as well.
