Harry Potter ... Nonfiction

Welcome to "The Gods Are Bored," where we can hardly wait until midnight! Yes, surprise surprise, the bored gods are huge Harry Potter fans! Hey, J. K. Rowling would have to be brain dead not to realize she's writing about the Ancient Ones, who disappeared onto Platform 9 3/4 when the rotten crop of current humans sailed into the British Isles.

Why is Harry banned by the scariest factions of the Christian Right? Because deep down we all know that wizards aren't fictitious, that magic happens, and that if you want something done right, you have to wave a wand over it.

Does anyone know where the nearest Barnes & Noble is? My current location is the Washtenaw County Fair, Ypsilanti, Michigan. I have three more rounds of goat-judging today and don't have time to go in search of a bookstore.

Never mind. A helpful 4-H kid just told me there's a Borders in Ann Arbor. Even if she isn't right about that, her goat is first-rate.

ANNE WANTS TO TEACH AT HOGWARTS
ARE THERE ANY OPENINGS?
