harry potter has been on my mind a lot lately... ok, i confess. harry potter is always on my mind. i'm very excited about the "harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban" movie that is coming out in june. if you haven't seen the trailer for it yet, be sure to check it out... and if you have any idea what those large and very strange toads in the first row of the choir are, then please drop me a note and let me know. perhaps they are tuning frogs instead of tuning forks? or a croak instead of a hum from a pitch pipe, perhaps?

anyway, i love reading and analyzing books. i was a film major in college.. correction, i was a telecommunication major with a film emphasis but i took so many film classes and so little telecomm classes, i might as well have majored in it if the university had allowed me to. also, all my film classes were in the english department and if i had stayed on one more year and taken a 100 level english class and two foreign language classes, i could have double majored, but that's all beside the point. so, i love to dissect films and books and this i have been doing for quite some time. recently, i came across the new clues bulletin board at mugglenet.com. this is a BBS dedicated to deciphering the clues from the New Clues to Harry Potter Book 5: Hints from the Ultimate Unofficial Guide to the Mysteries of Harry Potter. there have been some really great revelations on these bulletin boards so if you are a hardcore HP fan, i suggest checking them out and getting the clues book. i think that you'll find it all as enjoyable as i do.

in other news, HPANA reports that there's a casting call out for the Patil twins from "goblet of fire".. these girls are from india, no? the casting call states that the candidates should be "asian" but perhaps this is what the brits call people descendent from india?
