Harry Potter mania
The Harry Potter madness hit California about 10 minutes ago as the clocks rolled around to midnight, marking the day Book 5 in the Harry Potter series went on sale. Meanwhile, an Associated Press writer in North Carolina had a column written and on the wire, two-and-a-half hours after he was out at a book store with his wife and daughter.I loved the column, and it made me want to go back to the days of reading books to my younger sisters. But, like Harry Potter and the column's daughter, people grow up, and the days of reading books to my sisters are long gone. However, I don't think I'm too old to read the Harry Potter books -- as soon as I find a barely-used copy for sale through the amazon.com auctions, that is.
