The title to the 7th and final book in the Harry Potter series has finally been released. Rowling unveiled the title early this morning via her official web site, jkrowling.com, much to the delight of 300 million people worldwide.
Rowling's U.S. publisher, Scholastic Inc., released a brief statement Thursday announcing the name of the world's most anticipated children's book, the finale to her phenomenally popular fantasy series.
We now have a title for Book VII: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."
Honestly? Someone could buy me a BMW for Christmas and it STILL wouldn't top the elation that this bit of news has instilled in me today. And you know what thats called? That, my friends, is called understanding your priorities....or stupidity. I havn't really figured it out yet.
Authorities at Los Angeles International Airport say an inexperienced traveler mistakenly put her grandson through a carry-on luggage screener.
A startled security worker noticed the shape of a child and immediately pulled the baby out. A spokesman for LAX says the incident Saturday was an innocent mistake.
It seems bad now, but one day we'll all be able to look back on this and laugh. And laughter is the best medicine....except when you're suffering from horribly disfiguring full-body tumors at age 6 because your grandmother accidentally put you through the x-ray machine at the airport. Where the hell is the laughter then?

Wisconsin native Rick Lisko managed to accidentally kill a hermaphroditic, 7-legged deer as it ran out in front of his truck.
The young buck had nub antlers — and seven legs. Lisko said it also had both male and female reproductive organs. "It was definitely a freak of nature," Lisko said.
"It kind of gives you the creeps when you look at it..."
"And by the way, I did eat it," Lisko said. "It was tasty."
Given the opportunity, I'm pretty sure that I too would eat mutant roadkill without a second thought. No possible ramifications there! Health hazards not an issue at all.

Welcome to my third python-related blog entry of the year. This one finds our young python attempting to eat his owner--which is probably a better dinner choice than, say, an
alligator or an
electric blanket.
"The snake was on his arm and was eating his hand," Miller told the Herald-Standard of Uniontown for Friday's editions. Crilly "was very calm, considering there was a good bit of blood," he said.
In an effort to free the man without permanently harming the snake, Miller said he shot the animal with his Taser, a gun that sends an electric shock through wired darts. The snake immediately went limp and released its grip.
This is just getting ridiculous. I feel like every time I turn around I'm blogging about pythons. I don't really think it should be this easy to stumble across articles devoted to the eating habits of pythons but apparently its a hot topic. And why wouldn't it be? I mean, HAVE you SEEN Anaconda? Cinematic Gold, my friends. Cinematic GOLD.
