Four out of five Uniqua's agree.

Can you believe there are people making a living as baby naming consultants? I am officially in the wrong line of work. And to be honest, although my son's name seemed unusual to me at the time that we picked it (it was originally meant to be "David", but I changed my mind kind of late in the game), I keep seeing more and more kids with it - both boys and girls. There's no way I'd spend a couple hundred dollars to have someone else pick my child's name. Just please, for the love of all that's holy, stop naming your daughters Mackenzie and Kaitlyn, America! Someone in the thread I got the link from on Fark suggested Slartibartfast for a boy's name. Genius! Why didn't I think of that?
















Supposed "spoilers" for Deathly Hallows are flying fast and furious around the internet in the last couple of days. Not on the legitimate fan sites, just in other places I tend to frequent. Some of the theories are actually kind of funny, but others...not so much. Wal-Mart has forbidden employees from giving away information about the plot once the books are stocked in stores and on sale. By the way, M - since Helga Hufflepuff was JK's wizard of the month for May, and Salazar Slytherin is the wizard for June, I won't be surprised if in July it would be Rowena Ravenclaw. And I think a horcrux clue will be present since Hufflepuff is holding the cup and Slytherin is wearing the locket (see The Lexicon, and they also have the Black family tree posted - those wizarding families intermarried as much as the Amish...). So, what will the Ravenclaw horcrux be? And what about Griffyndor?

*UPDATE*: No Ravenclaw!? Gryffindor. Holding the sword. So this tells us...nothing. Bah!
