I'm suprised you don't have a Harry Potter countdown for the next movie/book.
p.s. Seriously bored too and in a suprising turn of events, am able to view the boards..... is it wrong that I would actually love to have some work to do at work?

I'm surprised you don't have a Harry Potter countdown for the next movie/book. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: 80 Days (Book) Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: 72 Days (Movie) Any more questions?? ;D Another interesting fact... as per Amazon.com, the city with the highest per capita pre-order of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is Fairfax, Virginia, this week...

I'm gonna have to agree here, I wouldnt knock the series unless you've tried them Walsh. Amazingly enough some of us can read "childrens books" and literature.
I would recommend you supplement your Playboy "articles" with a little HP.

Well that would go against me refusing to ever read one, now wouldn't it?
And I'm not the one on my team with the Playboy subscription and I wouldn't knock their articles til you try em.
Though my current read right now is A Brief History of Time

Goblet of Fire is my favorite. It is really the last book that Harry had somewhat of a normal year.
Five is a good one also, especially when Sirius paid the ultimate price.
I guess my order would be Four, One, Five, Six, Two & Three

Though my current read right now is A Brief History of Time Egads, my current reading pile is huge. And the "on deck" pile takes up half my living room. Currently (Re)Reading: HP and the Order of the Phoenix State of Denial Camel Club (Baldacci) 2 Wiccan texts The Rational Project Manager No wonder my blood pressure is pre-hypertensive!!

You should see all these Harry Potter website that are out there. That take HP to a whole new level!
BTW,
Will Harry kick the bucket? I say he is going to. What about Snape? Spy or not? So many questions!

I think that's why I liked Order of the Phoenix so much. It was the culmination of his experiences of being a wizard, but pitting that against the fact that he was still a boy.
I would have put the books in similar order: 5, 1, 6, 4, 2, 3...
I'm really trying hard not to read the muggle sites that are speculating on the end of the series. I have some theories, including the one where Sirius is not really dead.
Have you seen the latest trailer for the movie?? It looks really good. They just keep getting better. But I'm wondering how they're going to make up for information they left out from Goblet along with what they are obviously going to have to leave out of Phoenix. I mean the whole SPEW/House-Elf things was been overlooked in Goblet. I'm not sure it will be as easy to ignore them in Phoenix.
