tbrown 26 #26 June 21, 2003 QuoteNot yet,sounds like I should read the whole series.Harry Potter(learns to skydive),(designs his own parachute),(runs his own dropzone) and gets all the good looking women?(lol)Have fun. The one when Harry finally gets laid will be "Harry Potter and the Delta of Venus". Maybe next year, there's only two more books to go, unless Jo Rowling wants to write #8, "Harry Potter Gets a Job"... Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !

Muenkel 0 #32 June 21, 2003 Here's my little bit of Harry Potter trivia: When the first film was released, I was in London for the opening. So I got to see Harry Potter and the "Philosophers" stone. It was strange that everyone in the theatre had the same accent as the characters, except me. I think someone referred to me as a muggle.

Pammi 0 #34 June 21, 2003 QuoteMan, you SUCK! I pre-ordered mine from Barnes&Noble.com many many months ago...before they started running the same-day delivery for the price of normal delivery promotion. DAMN IT ALL!! It says it shipped on Thursday, but there is NO tracking information at all available. I'm so PISSED! But, it's a beautiful weekend, so I'm not going to sit at home hoping it arrives. It'll be here soon, and I can read it during the week. Enjoy it! Really? I got a free upgrade from B&N after I ordered it a few months ago and Samantha (my daughter) got her copy today Fedex. She's already on the umpteenth chapter...it'll be read by the end of the week. Pammi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They didn't offer me a free upgrade or anything, and it was NOT waiting for me when I just got home from the DZ! This is so not fair!

moodyskydiver 0 #36 June 22, 2003 QuoteCheck out Wal-Mart. That's where I got mine. They still had two huge pallets loaded with books left after the crowds had dispersed. I did! I tried Wal Mart early this morning and they were sold out along with the little mom-n-pop book store and every other place I could think of. My mom tried one of the bigger stores in the town she works out of and they said all the copies they had in the store were unavailable b/c they were reserved for pre-ordered purchases. Dammit! I guess I'll just have to wait til the mania dies down in a few weeks or months. "...just an earthbound misfit, I." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daizey 0 #50 June 22, 2003 haha i got to be on the opposite end of the mania. Instead of being out buying the book like you guys, i've been busy selling them for the past 2 days-if i see another one of those books, i just might scream We have them amazingly cheap (even cheaper than walmart!), many of them, and all of the other stores are out. Plus the fact that the other places around here sold them for anywhere from $30-40, so when they heard we had them, we were swamped. All i heard today though were kids screaming (out of joy for getting it and anger since their parents wouldn't let them have it), people yelling about the fact that their pre-ordered one hadn't shown up yet, or that they were overcharged. And lots and lots of noise-oh and a big bang from when someone knocked the table that was holding the books over Then don't even get me started on the ways people wanted them wrapped to protect them form the rain... I will be happy when this craziness is over *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
