(My girlfriends & I have a bi-monthy Harry Poker Night where 
seemingly sane grown women w/graduate degrees justify discussing 
children's  book at great length by the presence of playing cards & 
margaritas.)  
Mrs Figg being something very opposite of a 'mad old lady' due to 
much consumption of Polyjuice Potion. (cabbage smell) I also lean 
towards believing she is young Mr Potter's Secret Keeper while he 
is with the Dursleys. Now, the wild theory I'm about to throw out is 
a combination of 'who is Arabella?' & a question that has been 
daunting me for some time... who is Harry's Godmother? We have a Best 
Friend/Best man/Godfather in Sirius 


Me:
Harry poker night w/ margaritas...EXCELLENT idea. Now onto Mrs. 
Figg. That's an excellent point about her being Harry's godmother. 
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but you must have both correct? You 
can't have *just* a godmother or a godfather? I do think there is 
something fishy going on with the Polyjuice Potion, but I really 
don't have a clue. Polyjuice potion is definately in the mix 
somewhere concerning A.F. I hope it's not a case of Crouch Jr. all 
over again (evil-ness/polyjuice potion). Maybe... Mrs. Figg is using 
this potion as a disguise? Maybe she's really not an older lady (at 
least from what I picture) and is really someone L&J's age. She's 
doing this for protection reasons possibly? Kind of like the Witness 
Protection Program? LOL Just a stab in the dark. Anything's possible 
at this point.
