I started reading the books in 2000. I was 21. I’m a huge fan regardless. True, my experience is different than many of you who grew up with the trio, but it’s awesome none-the-less.
Magic is magic no matter when you discover it.
Confession makes sense only if you believe the Harry Potter series are kids’ books and that adults have completely forgotten their childhoods and can’t recapture them by reading.
Amazing
So that’s where they got the inspiration for this beer…..

A new maroon-coloured CityGlider service to link Brisbane’s major sports stadiums with entertainment precincts will be announced this morning.
Brisbane Lord Mayor Graham Quirk said the new “food and footy” service would run between Paddington and Stones Corner, stopping at locations including Suncorp Stadium, the Cultural Centre, South Bank and the Gabba.
The new CityGlider service would provide better public transport choice during major events, he said.

It will run on a similar timetable to the original CityGlider, leaving every five minutes during peak hours and 10-15 minutes during off-peak times.
The bus would run as a 24-hour service on Fridays and Saturdays and as an 18-hour service every other day, he said.
Cr Quirk said the council would be approaching the state government for funding and aimed to have the service started from the next financial year, which begins in July.
The maroon livery of the buses was chosen to represent the colours of local sporting teams: the Brisbane Broncos and Lions, the Queensland Bulls and the State of Origin team, Cr Quirk said.
The maroon CityGlider bus route:
- Trammies Corner, Paddington
- Paddington Central
- Old Paddo Post Office, Paddington
- Paddington
- Caxton Street
- Cultural Centre, South Brisbane
- Grey Street, South Bank
- Mater Hospital, Woolloongabba
- Gabba stadium, Woolloongabba
- Stones Corner

What 7th graders think of scientists (and how they look) before and after they meet in person:
I think of a scientist as very dedicated to his work. He is kind of crazy, talking always quickly. He constantly is getting new ideas. He is always asking questions and can be annoying. He listens to others’ ideas and questions them. - Amy

I dunno, maybe I should start wearing lab coats to really mix it up. Why does a statistician need a lab coat?
