We're fixing things up around here for the big move over to Drupal. More to come.

We've finally finished reading the entire Harry Potter saga aloud to the boys. So here are some things that I want to know (spoilers ahead, but if you haven't read it by now you probably won't care):
- Is Voldemort just stupid? He hides a Horcrux in the Room of Requirement, and assumes he's the only person to have ever hidden anything there? Despite centuries' worth of junk filling the place?
- Hermione manages to pack everything they need for their extended camping trip into her bag -- tent, cloaks, portrait of Nigellus Black, etc. Yet somehow she forgets to bring food, and she and Harry and Ron end up scrounging for mushrooms. I know that you can't magically make food, but couldn't she have just thrown a bunch of cans and a can opener in there?
- The plan to get Harry out of the Dursley's house seemed stupid enough when we're told it was Mundungus' plan. But this was the best that Dumbledore could come up with -- put the entire Order at risk, and give the Death Eaters the right date? I admit that the "seven Potters" is dramatic and all. But couldn't they have FedExed a Portkey to Harry? Or have him leave in a Muggle cab or something?
- Fiend fire? Really? Crabbe conveniently uses this spell we've never heard of before, and which just so happens to have Horcrux-destroying capabilities?
OK, I'm done with the picking of nits. We're still figuring out what series to read next; in the meantime we're in the middle of James and the Giant Peach. Did Roald Dahl write any
bad books?
