Basically, will Sirius, or some other "unknown relative" take Harry 
away?  Who was Harry's godmother? (Mrs. Weasley!;))

ME:There's no way, IMHO, that Mrs. Weasley is Harry's Godmother.  The way she reacted when she first met Harry at King's Cross makes it seem that she had never seen him.  Also, I think it would have come out by now if she and Arthur knew James and Lily.  I also think the kids, especially Bill and Charlie, would have known about the Potters because they were relatively old, Bill may have even been in Hogwarts, when Lily and James died.

P.96 - Harry meets Draco for the first time at Madam Malkin's Robes for all Occasions shop.  Draco says:
"My father's next door buying my books and my mother's up the street looking at wands..." he continues to talk of broomsticks.  

Question/Clue:  Did he mean his mother was buying him his wand?  Why would she be looking at wands without him being there?  It doesn't make any sense to me.  Of course, it is more than likely he went afterwards to buy it, but why is she looking at it.  What's the 
point in that?

ME: Ok, Mrs. Malfoy is a witch, she needs a wand too. Maybe she's looking for a new wand for *herself*.  Maybe she just went to talk to Mr.Ollivander, he does seem talkative.

P. 101 - Hagrid on getting Harry an animal as his birthday present:
"...Not a toad, toads went outta fashion years ago, yeh'd be laughed 
at - an' I don't like cats, they make me sneeze. ..."
