Potter Plotter

It's time for a little plot discussion. At the end of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Severus Snape murders Professor Dumbledore, which is a huge bummer. My sister holds her belief that Snape is innocent for one reason or another. For one thing, there is a passage from the 6th book where Dumbledore is telling Snape to do something he does not want to do. She also thinks that he was trying to stop Malfoy from becoming an evil Dark murderer by killing Dumbledore. Is Snape serving his benign headmaster? Or is he trying to prevent his favorite student from heading down the path Snape himself once took? Either way, Malfoy already has been Dark-Marked, which means he's probably going to end up serving Lord Voldemort, unless he displays the same resilience seen from Snape and Karkaroff (doubtful, because we all know Draco's a pansy).

I think the only reason Snape ever came to Hogwarts was because he could hide from the Dark Lord he pusillanimously abandoned. Dumbledore trusted him and gave him a second chance. Snape bided his time, and when Lord Voldemort returned, Snape had to regain his trust by taking down a major good guy.

Here is an interesting lead on Draco Malfoy's identity: http://www.mugglenet.com/editorials/editorials/edit-hseeker01.shtml

Farewell, Muggles!

I am really into quotes. I've compiled a list of three quotes. I'm sure you'd love to read them, so here they are:

Reality is always controlled by those who are the most insane.- Dogbert

Nothing is impossible. What you want is simply expensive.- Nikola Tesla (David Bowie) in The Prestige

I'm just trying not to catch on fire.- Bobby Flay

Very interesting indeed. All of these people can be located in my profile. I'm off to read more Harry Potter.
