Okay, count me in. BUt can I be something other than an assassin priest?
News:
A lot of people describe Scalzi’s Old Man's War novels as military science fiction, but I would classify its sequel Zoë’s Tale as a space opera. It’s a story about, well, Zoë, a teenage girl whose parents are invited to take leadership roles in building a colony on a new planet. Zoë is an enthusiastic member of the group sent to colonize Roanoke, despite the risks—and the risks are considerable even before the political machinations of greater powers boil to the surface.

The silence was heavy, palpable.
"Fluffy, you're taking this pokemon fetish too far."
"It's all I can do to keep my sanity," she replied. "The way you stare, it's just so creepy."
He took a step forward, an offering towards bridging the distance between them, but she bristled ever so slightly, and he stopped.
I always hated pokemon, he thought.

Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson at the 2002 Oscars was pretty great, too. Ben Stiller makes a great dwarf.

I should get with it and actually sign up with that Kazaa-thingy, then. The problem is, my apathy for downloading (fueled by a 56k connection) has developed tremendous inertia. Oh well, it's the life I've chosen.

Huzzah for Rick Blaine! He's one of my all-time favorites, as is that movie.
I don't know about Bond, though. To me he was always a little too cheesy to be taken seriously. Fun to watch, though.

Books / Re: Harry Potter

I agree with St. Ehlers in that the Snape - Potter relationship is great. It's my favorite part of the books.
I don't see how Rowling can leave the school, though. It would be too much of a departure from her formula (which has worked tremendously well.) Perhaps it's in her best interests but my prediction is she'll do what's easy and keep her bajillions of readers and stay at Hogwarts. The next book will have Harry's romantic life as a focus.

Didn't I just read on another thread that it was all going to be scrapped anyhow? I think EUOL said something to that effect.

I've always thought that that's a better way of dealing with magic: moving away from the pre-fab ready-made spells and treating it more like channeling raw power in interesting ways
