Ahhhh, I love it!  Thanks, Potioncat! 

And I must say... as lame a little dinghy as it was, and as low as it's currently riding in the bay, DRIBBLE SHADOWS never was outright shot down.  It still stuns me that JKR didn't seem to *get* that for a lot of us there was a missing 24 hours, but hey, she never came out and said, "Oh, poppycock!  NOTHING happened of consequence during that time."  

So, yeah, a lot of starry theories were lost, but it's fun to have one still rocking away... feebly, but rocking. ;)

SSSusan:
Reminiscing is a fun, fun thing.  And can I just say right now how very, very happy I am that ESE!Lupin didn't pan out? Or have I missed Pippin defending that in all these months I've stayed away?

Pass that pitcher of 'ritas, Potioncat.
