Posted by Hedwig949 Sep 30th 2006

Lol, that's great. A squib society! The world of HP really does have everything...


Posted by hpstephanie Sep 30th 2006

Posted by hprebel311 Sep 30th 2006

sweet. wonder if we'll be gettin more updates soon top 20?


Posted by firenze026 Sep 30th 2006

te hehe. i like it


Posted by Dobby Sep 30th 2006

That's cool. Andrew, do you think we could get an update about Cali/the Podcast or are you going to do it once everyone's back home and settled? :) Just checking. Hope you had a great time, thanks for the birthday update!


Posted by mischiefmanaged128 Sep 30th 2006

Do you think Idris (I'm not quite sure whether or not to use the pronoun "he" or "she" here...) helped to make the KwikSpell correspondance course? That'd be interesting...


Posted by ermynee78 Sep 30th 2006

haha poor lady


Posted by emilym Sep 30th 2006

wait, i love andrew. what a witty boy


Posted by Dobby Sep 30th 2006

What, I think I'm going CRAZY - what birthday update? it's WOTM, aaaaaaaaah yup I'm insane now.


Posted by shmcminn1 Sep 30th 2006

All the updates recently are awesome!


Posted by Lucas Sep 30th 2006

Leaky had this a while ago Mugglenet is starting to get slow with their news. I think that they should hire more people to do news posts. Also I really want the Wombat results even though I failed.


Posted by heather23renae Sep 30th 2006

So, I'm thinking that with all these updates that Jo must have ALOT of free time lately eh? and the only she could be getting free time is if she is reallllly close to being done with book 7.... I'm definately feeling a title coming soon...

Posted by Dobby Sep 30th 2006

Haha shmcminn, a part of me wants Jamie to win the bet, the other is interested if he really does it otherwise, lol.


Posted by Grey Sep 30th 2006

I love the little drawing that move:) Poor Idris with her little colecting tin. I wonder what they do to suport the squibs...


Posted by enchantress Sep 30th 2006

How funny :) I love these wizards of the month....


Posted by Grey Sep 30th 2006

About the "bet"--WE DON'T WANT JAMIE TO LOSE (or is it win?)THE BET, because if I'm not mistaken he said that if Harry dies he will eat 50 sausages. Because if Harry did die (which he wont!) seeing a video of Jamie eating 50 sausuges would not cheer me up. It would probably make me want him to choke on the stupid sausuges.


Posted by heather23renae Oct 1st 2006

Wishfull thinking I suppose... I just REALLY want the book summer 2007. It will make it so much more memorable for me... it's the summer before my freshman year in college.

So long without a new one... and so much has happened! Pickle pickle pickle pickle... Am I spelling that wrong?

Posted by toady Oct 1st 2006

Posted by The_Maltese_Fan Oct 1st 2006

Look people; just look at the picture of Idris Oakby and imagine that that's how Hermione might end up if she continues with S.P.E.W. We must stop her! Great witch of the month by the way (Jo is always so inventive!)


Posted by Gryfindor_Godess Oct 1st 2006

Wow..! I don't know how jo comes up w/ this stuff!! LOL! shes very creative!


Posted by HermioneRox1357 Oct 1st 2006

Posted by scurvy_cur Oct 1st 2006

Posted by SSWTB Oct 1st 2006

Very well done Mr. Idris Oakby. That sure is a worthy contribution.


Posted by SSWTB Oct 1st 2006

Oops. I meant to say Ms. I must be really tired.


Posted by Doxy Oct 1st 2006

Posted by Luke Oct 1st 2006

Hail, Squibs... I swear the old ladie down the road from me is a squib, she has lots of cats, and her house smells of cabbage.


Posted by sectumsempra99 Oct 1st 2006

Posted by Mrs_Finnegan Oct 1st 2006

Posted by MuggleMage Oct 1st 2006

It looks like she got one of those cheap hair dyes that turn hair blue O_o but anyway good for her!!!! Though not all Squibs deserve what she's doing *cough*Filch*cough*


Posted by AliceFO Oct 1st 2006

Haha, squibss.


Posted by 1crookshanks1 Oct 1st 2006

Half an inch of skin and sinew holding my neck on, Harry! Most people would think that's good and beheaded, but oh, no, it's not enough for Sir Properly Decapitated-Podmore.
