Which Is The Damn Point, After All

[filkertom]

I love it. I absolutely love it.

As detailed in this AP/Yahoo News story, there is actually going to be less Harry Potter merchandise in the bookstores when people go to get their copies of Half Blood Prince. Why? Because it was overpriced crap, and the stores don't want to sell it.

Harry Potter is about reading, and dreaming, and wonder, and fantasy, and a whole buncha stuff that the marketing people just don't get.

But the fans, and the bookstores, do.

Love it love it love it.





So. We've gone over this a bit before, but it's now within three weeks. Any particular plans for that weekend? Who's going to bookstore parties? Who's holding, or attending, house parties? Any parties at any conventions?

And if he bleaches his head, is he that dense dumb and blond kid who can't cast a spell at all? You know: The bimbo wizard?
