He could apparently move things with his mind, make animals do his bidding, speak with snakes, cause people pain, and, in his own words "make bad things happen to people who annoy[ed] him". Is this not what happens to those who have partaken of too much Grappa? It is not Potter envy at all that afflicts you, my friend, but possibly the DTs!<BR/>I am reading Forgiveness by George Munich - the story behind the film Jonas.

I respect the excitement ...Potter Schmotter indeed. I respect the excitement the books may generate but, like religious folk, vegetarians and tee-totallers, they're always a bit too smug about the whole thing.<BR/>I'm reading Vengeance by George Jonas - the story behind the film Munich - and it's very good.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03988212704720586820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21350603.post-4224618333089406592007-08-02T18:31:00.000+00:002007-08-02T18:31:00.000+00:00Potter Schmotter. Start a grappa collection instea...Potter Schmotter. Start a grappa collection instead, it is far more enjoyable. Mine currently stands at 4 bottles although one is the dreaded Ma Raki which I'd love to pour down the sink but the flat would probably smell of aniseed for weeks.martinobhoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03522543551929277906noreply@blogger.com
