I had tea time together with my collegue Sandra, and we read some tea leaves 
(we've seen the Grim).

> 1.	Who will be the most major character to die? 

Albus Dumbledore. Hagrid mentioned before he wouldn't worry as long as they've 
got DD for headmaster. We also expect Lupin and/or one of the Weasleys to die, 
but DD is more major a character.

> describe more.) 

The Old Lion Guy -- Godric Gryffindor (might have something to do with time 
travel - without time turner - or a special insight to the past for Harry).

> 3.	What is Lily's big secret? (This question will be eliminated 
> and full credit given to everyone if no big secret is revealed.) 

Harry died in the first place, and Lily found a charm to sacrifice her life in 
exchange for his.

> 4.	Who will be the new DADA teacher? 

Bill or Charly Weasley or Dumbledore. If only one is allowed, we vote for Bill.

> 5.	With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship? 

He and Ron will be interested in Hermione and quarrel about it. Ginny is due 
for book seven.

> 6.	Who will be the new Minister of Magic? 

Amelia Bones. Since the recent MoM is male JKR might choose the lady to fulfill 
the quota.

> 7.	What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover? 

A pensieve in which DD wants to show Harry past events.

> 8.	Will Harry take Advanced Potions? 

He ought to since he wants to become an auror.

> 9.	Will Neville take Advanced Potions? 

No. He has better things to do than be humilitated by Snape.

> 10.	How many OWLs did Harry get? 

6 since it's book six. (He might get another one in the seventh *g*)

> Predictions (0-10 points each): 
> 1. 

There will be a third prediction by Trelawney. (Might she just be predicting 
all her evening time, just no one listens?)

> 2. 

Before DD dies, he will have a quarrel with Harry.

> 3. 

Hermione, Harry, Ron will become animagi or at least try to (die in the effort? 
naah, enough Grim).

> 4. 

Voldemort (or a DE) will try to entice Harry "to the dark side of the force". 
Or at least Harry will be tempted to use the dark arts in a crunch time.

> 5. 

Hermione will think SPEW over, not to give it up but to concetrate on elves who 
feel oppressed by their masters (and actually want to be freed) instead of the 
Hogwarts elves.

6. Ron will turn 17 and attempt to pass his apparition test (he'll pass, we 
guess - triumphing over Charley who failed the first time).
