Now that June 21 is just around the corner (Wow! -- We'll be reading 
OoP next weekend!), maybe it's time to get *serious* here.  No more 
having a whole bunch of vague predictions to your name.  Maybe it's 
time for a gut-check -- time for anyone who's willing to stand on 
just one OoP prediction to step forward.

Now me (Laura):
All you people trying to kill off Lupin are giving me nightmares!!!  
I agree, he is more than likely to die before the end of Book 7, but 
I don't want to think about it.  The thing I don't agree with is that 
Lupin will commit suicide.

I mean, sure, the guy's had a really rough life, but I honestly don't 
see that kind of behavior built into him.  He seems to be brave and 
noble and I just can't see him comitting suicide because things get 
tough.  Draco, sure.  Lupin, no.

On to my prediction- 

I personally avidly support the idea that Snape was at the Potter's 
on the night Lily and James were killed, and I predict that this will 
be presented as fact in OOP.  The only real canon evidence I have to 
support this is the dream Harry has his first night as Hogwarts, in 
which he sees Snape's face along with Voldemort's laugh, leading me 
to believe that he has somehow connected them in his head.  So my 
prediction is that, during the course of telling everything (thinking 
about that passage is making me loose sleep, I swear...), Dumbledore 
will reveal that Snape was at the Potter's house on that infamous 
night, either trying to warn the Potters or reinforce some side or 
another of his double agent role.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it. ;-)  (until 2 weeks from now, 
when I'll probably be proven wrong...)

One other mini-thing, I think we're going to find out what's so cool 
about socks.  But maybe I just think that because I'm personally 
dying to know.
