Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

First of all, you don't need to reserve the book to get deep discounts ... just buy it during the first weekend. Borders is selling it at 40% off to all comers ... and I read in ze L.A. Times that most bookstores are following suit ... so as not to be shut out of the masses of customers who will be crowding the stores. Harry Potter will be used as a loss-leader and, ironically, the biggest selling book of the year will end up, according to this story, making zero profits for booksellers.

I also read in today's L.A. Times about the various bookstore festivities around town ... and it seems the Barnes & Noble at the Grove has got them all beat, with a live rock band providing the beat - in addition to all the usual trivia, costumes, characters, etc.

I wanna join in the energy and excitement! I'm not even buying the book (it's being shipped to me), but I want to go to the hottest last Harry Potter book party possible. Anyone else interested in hitting the B&N at The Grove Friday night???

Hahahaha mayyyyyyyyybe

Would I get to take pictures of you in a Harry Potter robe? Can we kick small children out of the way to be the first H4R4Y P0t73R #7 Own3rz r0xxOr!!?!? Can we talk about how much we'd like to stick Ron Weasley with our magic wands in a loud, suggestive tone?

Aw, it sounds fun and the Grove is our neighbor, but we'll be in our old 'hood (Burbank) Friday if anyone wants to see EH and I (and Tom too.)
