Spoil me not, 

Foul poster,

For I am not as 

Diligent as thee,

Fixating thine buttocks

To the Recliner of Sloth

Whilst engaging naught

But thine own hedonistic

Tendancies.

No, spoil me not, 

For, unlike you, 

I have a life.


Ships.

Well, let me say that I have been OBHWF from long before I heard the 
acronym.

I am still a bit disappointed that my Bill/Remus ship sank, but I had 
not put much stock into it.  

Penny, I must say I felt for you and was thinking of you when I read 
the interview.

The catelouging project has coded posts from HPfGU up to the time OoP 
was released, and I was the one who reviewed the SHIPping category.  
I read 1261 SHIP posts over the course of a few days, so I am very 
familiar with the great Shipping wars, the ships, and their 
proponents.  It was almost like having friends.

To Penny and her crew, I raise my glass.  A toast to you:  You argued 
well and fairly, never stooping to name-calling, always allowing the 
other the right to express themselves; always using canon to the best 
of your ability, and with great insight and clarity.

If you're still looking for canon:  HBP, US page 107, after Harry 
gets his Captain bagde.  

"That gives you equal status with the prefects!"  cried Hermione 
happily.  "You get to use our special bathroom now and everything!"

Hey, if a guy gets a cool sports position, and the girl is only 
thinking of the fact that she gets to bathe with him, the ship floats.

In the words of the Bulgarian minister, "Vell, ve fought bravely."

Ginger, hoping that takes some smarts out of the interview, but 
realizing she's not JKR.
