I am so glad Ballatrix kills Ron, he is the most annoying character in the book, just perfect.

Snape killed by Voldemort, well, he just turns out to be the bad guy, good for him.

Percy, I don't really care.

It sucks that Lupin got killed, he is one of my favorite charater.

And Voldemort, killed by love locked in a sealed room, how lame is that?

Does anyone know if Draco got killed? I just hate that guy. He better be.

But I am just glad Harry didn't get killed off, maybe he'll get it on with Hermione. I think Rowling decided not to killed Harry off(which should have been the right thing to do in the plot) was because of pressure from stupid readers and the freaking money if she ever decides to write another series. Lame.

i pick this article (part of it) from Keith Olbermann's prediction

But what about that scar on Harry’s face? What is it really, the one seared into him in childhood when Voldemort tried to kill him and did kill his parents, the one that could register Voldemort’s emotions, even sense when Voldemort is physically near. It’s got be a horcrux, no? It’s got to be a part of Voldemort carried on Harry Potter’s very flesh?

and the idea just hit me. what if it's true?
harry's parents life's is the killing, so Voldie did made another horcrux. What if harry "is" that something from griffindor? a decendant?

LIFE Is ENDING

i dont think i can deal with this anymore
no love, just agony and pain
the pain makes me want to walk out the door
staying much longer will drive me insane
i realy have the desire to kill
mine is in danger even if i lie
but i would be the victim of this trill
i surelly will be the next one to die
simple, sweet just a very young woman
love again i will never really feel
i cant go through this kind of pain again
i do not have the rapid urge to heal
today is going to be my real end
always remember me, your good friend

Their books and DVDs reveal a lot of truths about the world we live in.

I read someone else’s story plot and wondered if I could do the same? I like to write and I like to expose situations so that positive endings that I cannot achieve may be brought about by others. I would like feed back about this story. Is it something you would want to read more about? Is it something that would anger you enough to want it stopped? I will appreciate any feedback. Names and other facts are not real, though I am sure I will get grief for exposing this issue.

Georgiana clawed at the 4’x 6’ plywood bolted over her bedroom window trying to get free. It was cut down to a 4’ x 4’ piece because her room in the trailer was only 4’ wide.

Andy, her step father did this the last time she crawled out the window to run away.

Georgiana is considered to be a problem child at school though no one knows she is infected with HIV. Her mother, Ann was told that Georgiana was born with it. That is what Ann was told when she
too was diagnosed with HIV.

Andy refuses to be tested and Ann is a hemophilic so her doctor assumes she got HIV from a blood transfusion and this theory has been considered fact every since.

Who really knows if Andy wasn’t infected when he met Ann and infected her? Maybe he infected Georgiana also while molesting her during the videos he made to sell on the internet?

He is not of good moral character. After his arrest, Andy put up bail money to be free. He was then caught having sex with a fifteen year old girl and he was returned to jail without bail. that time

He refused to be tested for HIV so his status is not a consideration in the case of the fifteen year old. One would think testing the fifteen year old for HIV would be a good idea, but since her molester has not been diagnosed with HIV and the test is considered to have too many rules attached for most emergency departments to do routinely, the fifteen year old never did get tested.

Any is in jail now. Ann is dealing with the betrayal of her second husband, the anger of her daughter and trying to survive AIDS.

Georgiana has had a few boyfriends since the trial of her step father. She does not want any of them to know she has HIV and she has been intimate with each. She is under the impression that anyone who exposes her status will go to jail.

This is the point where I walked away from my involvement with this family. For many reasons I decided to choose a different career path, but I keep in touch with Ann and Georgiana and wonder if somehow a positive ending can still come about. Ann and Georgiana claim I was their hero, but other sources felt I had to be stopped. The problem is I do see hope, but I am only one person with limited resources.

"The Steep Approach to Garbadale"?
I have not read it yet, so please don't give anything away plot-wise - but how is it? I love all his writing and am almost scared to start as I'm afraid of disappointment.
My favourites are "Feersum Enjin" and "The Business"

If so is there a particular reason why he chose the name Joe Hill, some sort of hidden meaning or in-joke there perhaps?
