Harry Potter Book Club - Chapter 16 A Very Frosty Christmas
Chapter 11 Hermione's Helping Hand#425
Posted: 3/17/06 at 8:03amJust wondered if the next chapter was going to be posted over the weekend, or if we'll wait until Monday. I won't have internet access today, so if you take opinions during the day, I'm good with either! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
pnd, haven't responded to your PM yet. I've been meaning to consult with OOTP about what we've been talking about, but keep forgetting to!
I have a feeling that the next chapter won't be posted until Monday, since Patronus and Anji will be arriving in NY today and hanging out with Penguin and Yoda for the weekend. That's my hunch, but I may be wrong.

The next chapter may get posted late tonight, it depends upon how awake I am when I get home.
By the way, for posting an unsolicited opinion about the running of the thread pndmnd is the official Harry Potter teacher's pet of the day. Congratulations!

But I'm the teacher's pet, Miss Yoda!
This apple represents the bruising I feel on the inside now...

Posted: 3/17/06 at 2:48pmYou're always the teacher's pet, I thought it might be nice to give someone else a try. However, that apple does look a lot better than the mealy one I had for lunch...

Nuh-uh! There can only be ONE teacher's pet, Mr. Trump! It's not called "The Pets" or "The Favortism Group" - it's The. Teacher's. Pet. And that is me, Mr. Tr--
Oh wait, I'm not Randal.
(And if you don't follow The Apprentice, then this rant meant absolutely nothing to you.

Lucky for you I'm a big enough geek to know exactly what you're talking about, but I was annoyed with Randal, he should have shared the wealth.
I just thought it would be nice to reward pnd for taking the initiative.
Besides all of the HP regulars are favored by me, except for people like Stephen and Clay who have totally abandoned the discussion. They have to sit in the corner.

It's okay, I'm only kidding about pnd. She (he?) can be teacher's pet today.
*knowing nudge*
Yeah, I was really annoyed with Randal, too. I was cheering him on until that last episode. It's not like his apprenticeship would've been in jeopardy if Rebecca got hired as well. Even though she wasn't as consistent as him, she's accomplished so much at such a young age and she would've done really well. It was poor sportsmanship and arrogant for him to take that away from her.
(But it was also Donald's fault for pulling a gimmick like that.)

"But it was also Donald's fault for pulling a gimmick like that."
Well that way he got to be the good guy who wanted to take them both, but mean old Randal wouldn't let him. Once again Trump comes off as the magnanimous hero man.
Chapter 11 Hermione's Helping Hand#434
Posted: 3/17/06 at 3:19pmI think Donald was shocked that Randal didn't choose Rebecca. He probably expected that Randal would be a classy guy, and then both of them would look like heroes, and then it back-fired big time.

Posted: 3/17/06 at 3:22pmI agree that he was probably suprised that Randal didn't do the generous thing, but I still think he orchestrated the whole thing just right so he doesn't have to look like the bad guy. Randal does, which I guess was his first task as the Apprentice.

Posted: 3/17/06 at 3:29pmWhatever HAPPENED to the other Apprentices...Apprenti?...anyway? We see Bill so much. What about Kelly, Randal and the girl? (What was her name again?)

Posted: 3/17/06 at 8:25pmSo, I just got home and I find that there's been a conversation about me going on today! We could make it like Slug Club and have multiple teachers pets. I'm willing to share--sort of! Oh, and I am a she, by the way. I wish I hadn't gone with something nobody would understand, but I didn't anticipate actually posting things very often. If only I knew then what I know now! Maybe an avatar would help... Oh, and Tiff, I haven't had a chance to look back to OotP yet either, so don't worry about it--we'll figure more out about it eventually!

I could ask what pndmnd stands for, but I have a feeling the thread would spiral into perverted disrepute.

Posted: 3/17/06 at 9:01pmIt's actually not that long of a story. My name is Manda. We have close family friends with a daughter who's a year older than me, and when we were little she thought my name was Panda (not that she said it wrong, but that she really thought that was my name). So, their whole family calls me Panda. One time they actually called me Mand, and one of their sons didn't know who they were talking about. Anyway, when I take notes in class I leave out the vowels--it's my short hand, so that's how I came up with the username. I wish I'd come up with something that at least had some sort of identifiable word or name in it, though! OK, end of thread-jack!

Sorry guys, I had a very busy weekend that extended into today. The next chapter will either be posted this evening or tomorrow morning, I promise.
Thank you for your patience everyone.

I think Yoda's just got her hands full with Patronus and Penguin around this weekend.
No rush, Sara!

Posted: 3/20/06 at 9:33pmDon't worry about it at all!! You're just normally more chatty than this on the thread, so I wanted to make sure your computer didn't suck you in to some abyss.
