SSSusan:
Why, thank you much, CMC.  What a lovely coincidence that I grew up 
listening to Tom Lehrer albums and have always enjoyed his humor!

Amazing to think that we're 133 days away from getting all the 
answers we're going to get.  

Anybody care to share what they're planning to do re: the release?  
Going to a bookstore happening?  Hosting a party?  Waiting for the 
book at home?  In no particular rush?

I really, really dislike spoilers.  Last time I had been exposed to 
the supposed facts that Snape was the HBP, DD would die, and Bill 
would perhaps be a werewolf, all of which obviously played out just 
that way.  I was NOT pleased.  

So this time, even though my 10-year-old daughter really wanted to go 
to a B&N midnight party again, I'm going to pass.  No matter how 
quickly we would get our copy & head out the door, I'm convinced some 
schmuck ahead of me in line would open his/her book to the back, read 
a few lines, and shout out, "He dies!" or "He lives!"  And I really 
don't want to know, going in, what *that* particular outcome is.  So 
I've convinced said daughter that she can still stay up 'til 
midnight, we can head to the local Kroger grocery store or Wal-Mart 
and grab a copy there, where it's "safer," and then we'll await the 
arrival of the 2nd copy in the mail later Saturday.

Now... how to avoid all the spoilers sure to appear in the media & 
online ahead of time?  Bah.
