Solemn anniversary pends.

Post by Gawdzilla Sama » Mon Sep 05, 2011 11:22 am

October 31, 2011, will mark the 30th anniversary of the death of Lily and James Potter. I hope you will join me in a day of prayer and remembrance.

I thought maybe they were real people, and I was going to joke, "You mean Harry's parents?"... but then I looked them up, found out that was actually what you meant, and posted this anyway just to increment my meager post count.

I was just re-reading the last HP book and realized that Harry's 31st birthday was June 30th(?) and we missed it. Not a party one for the poor guy. :(

Maybe you can go to Diagon Alley buy some Xmas gifts for him and his family as a way to make amends?

I probably approach the place diagonally. :what:

I wouldn't mind shopping in Bourgin and Burkes. :twisted:

It's Neville Longbottom who was born on the 30th (and no, I did not Google that).
"The internet is made of people. People matter. This includes you. Stop trying to sell everything about yourself to everyone. Don’t just hammer away and repeat and talk at people—talk TO people. It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J
