Those of you who actually read the Harry Potter books when they came out can scoff at me. Go ahead. Get it out of your system in advance.

So in the second movie, the "Tom Riddle" thing with the anagram makes me happy. The idea that you should make an anagram out of your name (all three -- first, middle and last) and come up with a new anagrammed name for yourself (and the anagram might, say, end up as "I am ..." or perhaps "He is ...")...

<grin>

Yeah, I'm partial to the idea that the greatest wizard in the world picked his name that way.

(for those of you who don't get it -- ask me about the name "angelbob")

No.

That's because you're secretly evil, Noah. I expect you'll be gathering followers and getting evil tatoos any day now. :-)

Possibly. Are barrel-o-monkeys evil? If so, I have a head start :-)

Anything that smiles so much and hangs together so well MUST be evil.

EEE-vil.

But you should really read the books. Gilderoy Lockhart was a very well developed character in the books, and while KB played him fabulously, I am sure a lot of his scenes were on the cutting room floor.

And in answer to your AIM question, yes, I am the same one. :)

I thought of you as soon as I saw that. That rules.

We do not scoff. We welcome you to the flock with open arms, however late you were in realising the Error Of Your Ways.

(Incidentally, I did try to send this a few days ago when you first posted it, but my computer crashed. Sorry. And also interesting that you consider the big LV the greatest wizard in the world, when most people are too busy kissing Harry's ass to even notice the psychotic megolamaniac in the corner who dribbles a lot and thinks he can talk to snakes. I'll be watching you, make no mistake...)
