In the Philippines, we have a day to remember our dead relative called All Souls Day (Nov 2), although it is common for people to go to the cemetery on Nov 1. Aside from putting candles there, they also put lighted candles at...

thehsmomof2 If you were to see a spririt, it would look the same as the person did when, or before, they died. This could be pretty scary, depending on how the person died. Or maybe not, if the spirit takes on the look the erson had during his/her life. It depends.

Personally, I think that she is entitled to a long deserved vacation. Maybe a couple of years worth. The woman was raising children, on welfare, working, creating a storybook world and writing. All at once. Just one of those jobs...

thehsmomof2 Yes. I received my copy of the last book at about 12:05 am when they were handing them out. It read it in less than a week. I know those who were finished with it within a couple of days, but I have too many things to do in the run of a day. I laughed, I...

Let me say right off, this is not a discussion over whether homosexuality is right or wrong. I'm not even going to get into that. I do want to know what you think of JK Rowling's announcement that Dumbledore is gay. Do you...

thehsmomof2 Um. It's not hear say. Dumbledore is a 'character'. Not a real person. So it cannot be hear say or slander when the author (who created the character) says that he is gay. It is simply a fact. Which is fine. If he weren't gay, he may have been a different type...

thehsmomof2 Nope. It just wasn't necessary to the story. She was only asked a question about his love life and answered.

thehsmomof2 Actually, you are right. It wasn't relevant to the books. That's why she didn't put it in any of them. She only mentioned it because she was asked a direct question about Dumbledore's love life.

thehsmomof2 Not true. And the book is not about witchcraft. If it were, they would have been celebrating Yule, not Christmas. You would have been hearing things like: an ye harm none, so mote it be, brightest blessings, warmest wishes. You know, witchy kinds of things.

thehsmomof2 The hoopla will not die down any time soon. Fans are fans. Even Laura Ingalls Wilder still has a huge fan base. So does Tolkien and many others. She does not have to worry about keeping anything in the news either. People have her books, they are collecting...

thehsmomof2 True. Besides, everyone seems to be forgetting that she was asked a direct question and she answered it truthfully. This woman did not just write books. She planned everything out. She wrote out every aspect of every character and likely every place. She was...

thehsmomof2 I would not have a problem lending to my best friend either. I have known her for more than 20 years. I know the kind of person that she is. She always pays back her debts, and is very trustworthy. I know that, if she needed to borrow money, she would get...

thehsmomof2 By the way, I think that the family gatherings idea is a great one. I am planning to make cookbooks for my daughters with little snippets of information, but not nearly as in depth as what you have done.

thehsmomof2 Thank you for your input. I find your specialists conclusion very interesting. I will add his/her thoughts to my journal. I wonder why it is, then, that a much larger number of people (who never smoked) still had very severe problems in their twenties....
