The current consensus of opinion is that HP7 will be published on July 7, 2007. Among the reasons given, on the various HP sites, for this are: 1) It will be the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh year and it will be the seventh book in the Harry Potter series, it?s Harry?s seventh year...

how am i supposed to get those bootlegs anyway? There are a number of ways to start collecting boots: 1) PM anyone who you see stating they have boots and ask if they would be willing to let you have a copy. In this situation, the majority of traders require that you provide the blank CDs 9usually ...

Do you perchance have a link to where she's on record as saying that there will be no miraculous ressurections? I believe you, but I need to show someone else who wouldn't... Not exactly what you wanted but just as good is this quote at Mugglenet : Don't expect Dumbledore to pull a Gandalf. In addi...

The final track on 'A Farewell to Kings' is entitled 'Cygnus X-1, Book 1: The Voyage' and if you look at the lyrics, ' to be continued ' is appended at the end. The first track on 'Hemispheres' is 'Cygnus X-1, Book 2: Hemispheres' which (and remember 'Hemispheres' was originally released on vinyl) w...

Things to make you go Hmm

If 75% of all accidents happen within 5 miles of home, why not move 10 miles away? If a cat always lands on its feet and buttered bread always lands butter side down, what would happen if you tied buttered bread on top of a cat? If you take a shower, where do you put it? Shouldn't there be a shorter...

Personally, I'm of the opinion that another conceptual piece is highly unlikely. It was during their 70s art rock phase that they went for the conceptual pieces which was 30 years ago. To do concept piece now could be seen as a step backwards and, if anything, Rush have always been about progress an...

I must confess that I am in absolute dread of this film. The original version of the Wicker Man is, in my opinion, one of the greatest, most chilling, interesting and thought provoking films every made. Through out, it shows and interesting contrast between the life-loving demeanor of the pagan isla...

Currently listening to and thoroughly grooving along to the most excellent, classic, wonderful 'Exodus' album by none other than Bob Marley and The Wailers...mon. Now that is a classic that I've not heard in a good long while. I'm still on a Goon Show kick (I recently downloaded 130 odd episodes) -...

Sadly, I missed our main CAMRA festival which took place in April. However, one of our local CAMRA pubs, has two beer festivals a year (one on St George's Day weekend) and the other around Bonfire Night. I tend to go with my father-in-law (who shares my view on beer) and they generally have some goo...

Hey Slaine, This may be up your alley. http://www.warbirdbrewing.com/warbird_beer/warbird_beer.htm Looks interesting but I have to admit that my encounters with American beers have been a little disapointing as they tend more towards lager than ales. Still, if I ever come across it, I'll give it a ...

The Meaning of Life

One day, God created the dog and said: "Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years." The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the oth...
