 Without fail, (why, I cannot say), I laugh out loud for literally
 minutes every time I read the introduction of Sir Cadogan in PoA. When
 they leave him, and he says too call on him if they need him or
 something, and Ron goes, "Yeah we'll call you...if we ever need
 someone mental!" I crack up. In fact, I'm laughing out loud
 uncontrollably as I write this. Why I find that line so funny, I don't
 know. But it just gets me.
 
 
 And more importantly, on the Triwizard Portkey issue. Croody says
 TWICE (once to Harry as Moody and once to Dumbledore as Crouch) that
 he *turned the cup into a portkey*. Implying, of course, that it was
 not a portkey of any sort before he got his grubby hands on it.
 
 Joe, who has so much to say on many threads, but is desperately trying
 to catch up after a lengthy vacation. Oh, and who loves the
 ever-so-evil Hagrid theory, but thinks it means Hagrid must be at
 least the tiniest bit intelligent to pull it off, and that would mean
 that Hagrid throughout the series is putting everyone else's Oscar
 winning performances to shame.
