Anyone?



Anyway, I just found it funny.

In GOF, (pg 517 U.S.) Snape tells Harry," the use of this potion is controlled by very strict Ministry guidelines."

Sounds like she would have been outside the bounds of the guidelines, but of course that was the old ministry's rules and they may have changed after Scrimgouer took over.

Thank you!

No one has put my favorite up, so I'm going to paraphase, since I'm on vacation without the book. I like the part where Harry tells Aberforth Dumbledore gave him a job and Aberforth says "nice? easy? the sort of thing you'd expect an unqualified wizard kid to do?"

This part at the beginning had me rolling!

"Ooh, you look much tastier than Crabbe and Goyle, Harry," said Hermione, before catching sight of Ron's raised eyebrows, blushing slightly, and saying, "Oh, you know what I mean - Goyle's potion looked like bogies."

Then...

"He felt like asking them to show a little more respect for his privacy as they all began stripping off with impunity, clearly much more at ease with displaying his body than they would have been with their own."

Six naked "Harry Potters" (including Hermione and Fleur!) strutting around the room and checking out his body with absolutely no sense of modesty. Hilarious!!! I <3 JK Rowling.

When Ron says of Luna "She's always good value." I don't know why that tickled me, but DH and I keep quoting it to each other when the children do something funny.

Oh, and Hermione exclaiming "Merlin's pants!" and then Ron later talking about Merlin's Y-fronts.
