Ooo. That one went right past me. Very good.
About the Weasley twins and their joke shop: I read a very good work of
fantasy (which I won't name, to avoid spoilers), in which a spy network was
based out of a travelling caravan full of entertainers, whose owner was such
a loud, obvious buffoon that no one ever suspected him until about three
fourths of the way through the book. I can see Fred and George and their
joke shop, such a popular place with wizards of all kinds, and everyone
comes in and lets their guard down and all sorts of information is lyign
around loose ... but who cares, it's just those two airhead Weasleys, as if
they ever paid attention to anything other than producing better Canary
Creams.
(Note that the jokes those two successfully pull off, such as the toffees,
candy with Transformation spells, etc. indicate a high wizarding ability
...)
And yes, I'm beginning to move from the "Fudge is a cowardly incompetent"
point of view to the "Fudge is evil" point of view.
