You're right, it is!

I'll just start by saying :confused: :mad:

I for one am very disappointed!

Co-sign. I mean HELLO! It's the same surname as Harry's mom, yet it means NOTHING? Just a humble coincidence. Bah...

While I wasn't 100% correct, I knew it didn't mean anything.
I thought it was intentional, but it wasn't. I just couldn't see there was any possible way he was related to Harry. At least not with the information she had previously given us.

Ok, I'm back from work...and it is Friday...SO LETS TALK:D

For those of you that haven't been to JKRowling's site here is the big news- THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANVE OF MARK EVENS!!!

Now, I want to SHOUT from the mountian (or the bridge, not many mountians by me) that "I TOLD YOU SO!!!". I'll admit it. I visit some of those other chat sites that are strickly Harry Potter, and I post. I had the minority opinion that Mark Evans ment nothing. Let me tell you, ya think GC is bad sometimes? Try getting flamed by 13 year olds. Ouch. And they can put some graphic-y type things into their posts. I had one post that was some dashes and zeros in the shape of a middle finger at me.

I really really really wanted to know if Siruis is really dead. I actually thought that was the only logicat FAQ posted there. I thought JK's side note of "if any" in the question "What, if any, is the significance of Mark Evans?" Would have tipped everyone off. Even JK announced she was praying that another questions was going to win. But alas, we now know that Mark Evans was a big fat red herring.

LOL... I feel your pain. Sometimes I give up trying to talk sense into 12-15 year old Clay Aiken fans (and all their bad grammar and internet speak.) I just get a headache sometimes.

Anyhoo, I didn't even remember who Mark Evans was. I guess I was just hoping he was something so we could get a spoiler. But I guess not. A girl can hope. :) But I guess the Rule of 2 really applies here. He was never mentioned before then and wasn't mentioned after.

And I joined up with one of the msg boards on muggle net to find out what i would be sorted to. I am a Ravenclaw. ;)

Hee hee hee, me too! I'm in Gryffindor.

Guilty of the sorting hat. Of the zillion times I've been sorted, I'm usually Gryffindor followed by Ravenclaw.

proud slytherin. with a scarf, shirt and door sign crest to show everyone =P

anyways... i knew marc evans would be a big nothing, that's why i was bummed that one won out on the faqs poll.

LOL. I think one time on another site i was sorted into slytherin... i didn't like the result so i changed some answers to questions and became a gryffindor... so yeah I pulled a Harry Potter.

But i went and won a gryffindor scarf on ebay today... yeah yeah... i am a traitor to my house... but I like red and yellow better! ;)

I kept being sorted into Slytherin on the WB Harry Potter Website, I kept trying to change my answers but they still kept putting me into Slytherin. I finally said screw you, I don't want to go to Hogwarts :D

how slytherin of you;)

Hahahahaha...yeah.

But the first time I got sorted on that website the placed me in Gryffindor. I answered the questons the same way all the other times and ended up in Slytherin.

I think I'm probably more of a Hufflepuff by nature anyway :D

why didn't i ever think of that??!!! looking for hp stuff on ebay, i mean. i already decided i'm going to be harry or herminonie for halloween. i think more people will have a clue if i'm harry

There are a lot of things on there. You just have to do a general search for a harry potter scarf... don't narrow it down to only "harry potter clothing" because people don't make their categories correct.

Another online store to try is Alivan's. They have a banner and link on Mugglenet. Scarves are about $16 plus shipping (which is like $7). Not bad compared to WB stores, which charge about $35!

Ok, so I found this random piece of paper when I was cleaning out my boxes from college. I have no idea why I wrote it, or where I got the notion from.

But for some reason, I wrote "Herminonie anamagus = room of requirement".

Since I don't have my copy of OotP with me :( can anyone help me out? Does Herminonie talk about some animal or something in the room? I really feel that I found this on a website or something. I know i didn't think of it myself.

Why we are on the topic- anyone care to guess if any of our Hogwarts students are going to be anamagi?

What animal would you want to be if you could be an anamagus? I would want to say dophin (b/c even before tri delt, they were my favorite animal) but that doesn't seem practical. I think I'd go with an osprey or a bald eagle instead. Some kind of majestic and powerful bird.
