On a much lighter note

I don't watch a great deal of Japanese TV - no surprise there.  But that's probably part of why the Japanese trailer for Zack and Wiki, which you can get to from this page, feels... well, kinda goofy.  Or maybe it's just aimed at the 7- to 12-year-old set, even though those are clearly adults playing it?

Woops, belated!

I hope your birthday was full of fun, happiness, and good food, nhradar!

Almost done with HP7 (no spoilers)

About 30 pages left (Brit edition); much has been 'splained, and Good Writing has happened.  Yeah, hm, certain parallels that I thought I saw coming a number of chapters ago do seem to be carrying through.

We should be totally done in another few days, and thus will not be any bar to discussion at Reunion.  Yay!
