dcgmck:
Starting weakly, I'd just like to toss out the thought that 
Dumbledore's preference for muggle candies over WW candies seems as 
signifcant as his desire for socks.  I think he's bound to Hogwarts 
the way that house elves are bound to families but that he's a 
different kind of elf with a muggle connection.  Maybe he was an 
orphan raised by muggles or maybe he has muggle blood.  I like the 
idea that he is a different kind of elf abandoned or intentionally 
left at a muggle orphanage.  :->  Just messing around...
