Do you want your car to have the look of a real sunroof?
You can install it in 5 minutes!!
Extremely fashion and new aparent sun roof, made of a sticker that will give any car the image of a real sunroof.

While I think this is funny, it’s still one of the dumbest products I’ve seen in a while.

Stephen King: The last word on Harry Potter

hp_l.jpgStephen King: The last word on Harry Potter

And so now the hurly-burly’s done, the battle’s lost and won — the Battle of Hogwarts, that is — and all the secrets are out of the Sorting Hat. Those who bet Harry Potter would die lost their money; the boy who lived turned out to be exactly that. And if you think that’s a spoiler at this late date, you were never much of a Potter fan to begin with. The outrage over the early reviews (Mary Carole McCauley of The Baltimore Sun, Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times) has faded…although the sour taste lingers for many fans.

Stephen King’s review of the whole Harry Potter series.  Mostly supportive and little critique.  He evidently enjoyed the books.

Make Your Own Wizard’s Wands

One of the first shops that Harry Potter visited when Hagrid took him to Diagon Alley was Ollivanders, the wand shop to buy his most important possession, his wand. Wands can be made from a variety of materials, after all Hagrid used an old umbrella as a wand! Yours will be made from paper. But do not be deceived it will be every bit as magical as the real wands used in the film, and if you make it carefully will look just as good.

I’m adding this to the list of things to make for the kids. Very cool and something they can help with. They’ve both been stoked about the Deathly Hallows and now that I’ve read it I’m about to get Jim Dale to read it to my kids.
