Ohhhh, nice cover of magazine. Dan is lovely in that photograph. Anyways, the number one book, The Road, is simply amazing. It leaves you at a loss for words...especially if you have kids....

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
