That is what i am contemplating doing...but i think it would take too long... 1min a page...about 600pages... 600/60=10hours...
actually its not that long...i might do that!

when people give me stuff to read and i hand it right back they are like "read it" and i am like "i did" and they are like "wow" and stuff.  wink.gif

I also read fast... a lot more than most people ive seen...takes me about 1page a min...im going to time myself now  laugh.gif

So, I just talked to an Employee of my bookstore.

Today, our phones have been ringing NONSTOP the whole day, people asking us if we can 'babysit' their kids, reservations, EVERYTHING.

A shipment of Harry Potters was delayed, so now we will only have about 100-200 extra books for people who have not reserved a copy (1300 people). The Saturday morning crowd is in for a rude awakening - if you did not preorder you are screwed!!

The police have been notified for crowd control and parking control. I am scared and excited!!!

Well i know I am a Harry Potter enthusiast...just wondering if any of you dummies know how to read ( wink.gif jk) and if so, if you like/have read the Harry Potter series.

The 5th book, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix" is released on June 21. MY bookstore that I work at is having a party, we open our doors at 11:59 on the 20th. 1 minute pre-release. It's going to be a lot of fun biggrin.gif . All the staff are required to dress as a character from the series.

being tall and ... hefty, I was assigned the role of Rebus (Ruu-bis) Hagrid. I get to wear a beard and a wig and a $7 trenchcoat and hand out Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans to the kids. For those of you who dont know, they are Jelly Bellies with flavors like Dirt, Booger, and Sardine.

Our town of 250k has placed 1100 reservations for a copy of the book - sometime on the 20th we will recieve a shipment of 2480 books. We expect 300-400 people to come to our midnight party. Its gonna be a lot of fun.

w00t! im excited...can ya tell?  biggrin.gif

All the coolness that I thought brahm had...Was just...tottally...lost... sad.gif I pity tha foo! sad.gif
