Harry Potter 6 - WHO'S PUMPED?

It's been mentioned in other threads, but I will say it again since I am such a big fan. Jim Dale does a wonderful job reading the Harry Potter tales for the audiobooks. He doesn't just read the books, he acts them.

The dar family has been known to sit around the stereo listening to the stories like some '30s "Good Housekeeping" family sitting around the floor model radio.

I am sad to say that I gave up my right to be the first in the house to read the book...

I've had all summer to get this paper done... I've known about it since the end of may and it's due 7/22... I just really got started on it this week. So I figured, since HP6 will be a huge distraction for me, I'm going to let Micahel read it first. He reads slow... so he'll probably have it done by next Friday.

In the meantime, back to discussing why cultural property displaced by war should remain in other countries until its home country is stable enough to take it... now that's a thread topic.

The kids and I stayed up last night for the HP feeding frenzy at the local Border's. They did a good job of it. Everything was well ordered and they had enough for the kids to do.

Just finished chapter four. An excellent start. It bodes well for the rest of the book.
