Dear all,
While I like Hagrid, I'm kind of relieved that the replies
to my question made so much sense. The top candidate on MY
short list(Hagrid hadn't even occured to me, frankly)was
Ron for various reasons.(Dumbledore was second-partly
because everyone in all the books had been saying he'd
been getting on in years, and Hagrid had made a comment
at the end of book 4 that he "didn't know what they'd do
without him". When I noticed that comment during my most
recent re-reading, I remember thinking,"Oh Hagrid, I *do*
wish you hadn't said that".)While I don't remember all the
reasons that it might be Ron off-hand,(And I DO *so* hope
that I'm wrong about this.)I remember that Ron was mentioned
in that short excerpt that was released fron that letter that
went up for auction a few months ago. Also,he has a temper
and might be tempted to do something rash-possibly fatal.
(perhaps in persuit of glory for himself maybe) And while
I'm probably jumping at shadows,I'm also worrying about
the observation made by Harry about how different life
was when Ron wasn't your best friend.
For the record, Dumbledore was the only one on my
"short list"(Of 4)who wasn't a Weasley. Gods, I have NEVER wanted to be proven *so* wrong in my life, but we'll all
find out on the 21st,hey?
Normally I'm a lurker, but I enjoy this group a lot and
I love to hear other people's theories. For the record I'm 37,
live In The Middle Of Nowhere,NY, and I just joined a few days ago.
