Okay, we know in the HP world the good guy wear red and the bad guys
wear green.  But... hold on... doesn't Harry have green eyes... and
wait a minute... doesn't Voldie have red eyes? Ummm hmm!  Knowing J.K.
Rowling this isn't coincidence because honestly, nothing in these
books are coincidences (for all of you who haven't red WWP's
Unofficial Guide to the Mysteries of Harry Potter you should because
it blatantly gives extensive canon for this for books 1-4 and canon
can be found for it in book 5 as well, it is actually one of their
rules for sleuthers, nothing is coincidence in the HP universe).  

Well ANYWAY, knowing J.K. Rowling this means something or it could be a red
herring but if it does I take that it is a little detail that clues us
in that Harry does have Voldie inside of him, essentially he is Voldie
only the opposite of Voldie (is anyone else getting me) he has
Voldie's cunning, determination, disregard for the rules, they both
had unhappy childhoods blah blah blah... you've all heard this canon
a million times.  Only, so far Harry has chosen to be good and Voldie
chose power over morality( ah ha the power of choice has come to us
again) so I think the eyes are telling us that Voldie and Harry are the
same, but it is their choices that make them very different, but
they do have it inside both of them to go the other way.  

The sorting hat wanted to place Harry in Slytherin because he would have 
done well in it, Harry could have been ANOTHER Voldie if he wanted to, 
but he didn't and that is why he is in Gryffindor.  And you know what? 
Voldie could have been just like Harry if he wanted to! But he didn't! 
And that is why he is Voldemort and not Tom.  In this series nothing is
just coincidence, but nothing is beyond our control and there is no
such thing as fate!  It is all about the choices we make, that
ultimately Harry will make, and Voldemort has already made. So just a
little interesting flip-flop tidbit I thought someone might enjoy. 

OOO and I just wanted to say something, in essence, since all
purebloods are inter-related no matter how distant, couldn't Voldie,
Sirius, and Harry all be extreme distant relations of Salazar
Slytherin AND Godric Gryffindor since pure bloods have had to inter
marry so much and they are all related somehow.  Voldie had a
pureblood mother, Harry a pureblood father, and Sirius was completly
pureblood, so IS Voldemort really the last remaining descendent
(ancestor?) of Slytherin.  Wait a minute!  Is it possible that
Dumbledore is an ancestor of Slytherin.  If he's pureblood he's got to
be.  And the Weasly's too.  I feel though that these relationships are
way too distant to be actual heirs.  

Oh and one more thing that I thought was extremly interesting, at the 
Ministry of Magic in the big climatic (anticlimatic?) duel in OOTP 
Dumbledore calls Voldie Tom and Voldie does not object.  Everyone else 
calls Voldie the Dark Lord,  he who must not be named, you know who, or Voldemort; in fact almost no one knows that Voldie was once Tom and Tom 
said in book two that he did not want to be called by his poor common 
muggle father's name but he lets Dumbledore call him that.  We know that 
Voldie fears, even respects Dumbledore but I still thought that was interesting.  

I also loved how he swooped in there all confident in that scene.  
Extremely cool.  Oh and one more thing that was REALLY bugging me.  
Ollivander knows that Voldie has Harry's brother wand, however, Voldie 
bought it before he was Voldie, when he was just Tom, Ollivander has got 
to know about Voldie's past then, but how?  This was buggin me so much!  Is
Ollivander close with DBD?  Is Ollivander close with VDM?  Can we
trust Ollivander?  Has anyone pondered this before?  PLEASE WRITE BACK
YOU GUYS THIS IS MY FIRST POST!
