This would be my first post aside from the prediction contest.  But something just struck me when I was reading the emails.  Not sure if this has been talked about already, forgive me if it has.

In Snapes first potions class with Harry, we get this information:

SS, Page 138

"For your information Potter, asphodel and wormwood make a sleeping 
potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death. A 
bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat and it will save 
you from most poisons."


I was wondering, Maybe Aberforth was in the business of getting the bezoar's from goats and had a bit of an odd way of doing it?  Just a thought, does any one else think it could be?  Maybe we'll hear about it in book 7, or JKR just wanted to add some humor for us to peice together.
