lol vaudree
Guys, I cannot stop reading the ever-so-kindly-named "Dual Interpretations" thread.

Vaudree: All that indicates is that she heard the Marauder’s side of the story (either directly from them or from someone else) since the last time she talked to Snape. So we are in the same place where Snape could have entertained the theory concerning Lupin being a werewolf before or after he went down there.

Wendall: I don't really understand your theory about Snape only starting to theorise about Lupin being a werewolf after the whomping willow incident. He knew Lupin was a werewolf after this, it wasn't just a theory. He saw Lupin going in, he saw a werewolf in the shrieking shack, Dumbledore made him promise not to tell anybody that Lupin was a werewolf.

Vaudree: I never said that WickedBoy cannot come up with a theory - there is still the Scottish book. I don’t know whether Snape came up with his Lupin is a werewolf theory before or after the Shack Attack – the book doesn’t say. To say one way or the other is to make a theory – to make a prediction – as to what the Scottish book will reveal. Six months after the Scottish Book, discussion of the series will be truly over. [whining about Jo writing next-gen books]

It's just so pointless and stupid, yet I still can't stop! Here, I'll give you a little bit more of a post of Vaudree's.

Never really understood why Ron felt more threatened by Cormac than by Neville – what do you think JKR was trying to show with that?

Cormac went out for Ron's place on the team and actively went after Hermione. Neville liked Herbology. Why do you think he felt more threatened by the former?

can’t see HBP until it goes to Video but my son said that the movie was completely different than the book but Steven Van Ark says that basically they are the same.

Hi. :)

Popped over when I noticed you changed the default JF picture you use (I think?) I liked the [zeta] smile one and so was concerned you got rid of it.

Ok, on topic.... vaudree seems to be a very unique brand of special. What on earth does she mean by "there is still the Scottish book"? She must be one of those who actually thinks she has the special versions of the books or that JKR is hiding the 'real ones'.

Le sigh.

The Scottish book is the encyclopaedia that JKR is hopefully writing.

Ah :) No doubt it'll fill in more canon gaps, but I don't see where vaudree could assume it will drastically change what we know about people in the books.

Hi! Since I have so many icons on JF I tend to just be overwhelmed and not bother to use a different one per comment the way I'd like, and so when I get tired of one I switch to another as default. You're welcome to take my CZJ smile icon (with credit) - I'm pretty proud of it, since it's one of the few contest-winners I've ever made.

I kind of want to start commenting on the Leaky thread, because oh god it's so active and there are sane people there as well so it wouldn't be like when I was on HarmonyForever. I don't think it will end in tears!

Just guessing, but the reference here could be to Neville asking Hermione to the Yule Ball and Ron claiming that she was only making up having a partner already so she wouldn't have to go with Neville. So Neville asked her out--but Hermione asked Cormac out. Which means it still doesn't take much deductive reasoning to figure out why Ron was more threatened by Cormac, even though Hermione probably would have gone to the ball with Neville if he'd asked her first. And then Ron would probably have said it was just to be nice. I think in general Ron just didn't find Neville threatening. He also didn't particularly care that he was going to be taking his sister to the ball.

SVA says the book and movie were basically the same? Can't he use some of his book royalties to get himself a new prescription for his glasses?
