SNIP - a whole lotta back and forth about a Christmas carol/song...
celletiger here:
"God Rest Thee Merry Gentlemen" reminds me of the British comedian Mr.
Bean and his hillarious Christmas television special from some time in
the 1980s. Relevance to the Potterverse: Mr. Bean used a widley known
Christmas carol (GRTMG) as the background music of his programme. Just
like JKR, religion is not the focus of the story, it merely provides a
familiar background for readers. Non-Christians in predominatley
Christian countries still get the day off of work on Dec 25.
Christmas is universal.
BTW, I want the same jumper Harry got in GOF with the dragon on it.
celletiger, new orleans, louisiana, usa: come here, you'll never feel
as welcome anywhere else in the world.
