Harry Potter and the Snakes and Snails and Puppy-dog tails
I don't think this is a spoiler, because it's said in one of the early chapters and isn't very surprising: Dumbledore briefly mentioned that the Dementors were breeding, something that made both me and my sister make a strange face when we read it. I hadn't really thought about the Dementors having sexual organs or any gender at all. Alfie explained her confusion thusly:
"There are female ones? I always associated them with being male because they suck the happiness out of everything."
Srahmom put her two cents in, wondering what a baby dementor would look like, being pushed around in a pram on Sunday morning. "Oh, what a darling baby! And he looks like he wants to give me a little kiss..."

I'm sorry, I don't know this....henry potter? what is this, exactly?

Did they really say that at some point? I missed it somehow, maybe I should reread all 5 books before getting into the 6th. And the explanation for them being male? LOL + *sigh*

Yup, sorry I misread, Monday early morning and all that

Is it a movie of some kind? Or a comic book? I don't understand...

Chrispy, Henry Potter was the colonel on M*A*S*H. Being a fan of this once-great TV series, I made the same mistake. HARRY Potter is the world-famous horticulturist. I just got his new book and have great looking rhododendrons popping up in my backyard. Amazing the extent that people will go to for nice flowers these days. Geesh.

I think that's nice that you've found friends who like your Heddy Porter plant books Sarah. That's very nice.

Regarding M*A*S*H, I was merely calling it once-great because it no longer occupies a timeslot on a standard television network. I realize that it does live on in syndication though and; therefore, shall remain forever great. Please accept my sincere apology.
Trivia, RE Heddy Potter: Heddy is my grandmother's name - it's short for Hedwig. Her last name; however, is not Potter. Those crazy Poles!

Yeah, yeah...these new fangled computer contraptions are hard to work.
Funny, I wonder how my grandmother's night vision is.
Maybe Andy will let me borrow his book (and glasses) when he is done.
I heart Srahmom!
