Happy Belated Birthday Severus Snape,
I watched DH2 last night again and I am still brought to tears every time your death scene is shown.

Happy Belated Birthday Severus Snape, I watched DH2 last night again and I am still brought to tears every time your death scene is shown. I don't think I will ever be able to watch that without crying! Erin

Around this time, January 1995, Rita Skeeter's article about Hagrid being half-giant appears in the Daily Prophet. Hagrid is so upset he refuses to teach classes. Prof. Grubbly-Plank takes over until Dumbledore and the trio help convince Hagrid that there is no shame in who he is.

Oh I loved that scene where the trio went to Hagrid's Hut and made him feel better, along with Dumbledore. This thread is making me remember some of my favorite parts of the books.

Oh I loved that scene where the trio went to Hagrid's Hut and made him feel better, along with Dumbledore. This thread is making me remember some of my favorite parts of the books. Yeah... I know that really touched my heart to see that even the headmaster of the school could go to him to let him know how much he's needed and wanted. SO many people... the kids in the classes.... Hermione and even I think Ron kept thinking someone else would be better to teach the class than hagrid.. But as far as I was always concerned, he was the best suited to teach that class above all else. I mean, there was so much more to magical creatures than unicorns and light fluffy things. Most were the large dangerous things. Those I believe above all else were the creatures that the students needed to learn about the most. I mean.. if there were not any class such as this, and the students ran across a unicorn on their own, I'm sure they would survive. But if they ran into a Hippogriff or a Thestral they would know what they were dealing with. They would know how to handle that situation. This was better they learned how in a safe classroom envirnment with a teacher who could handle the situation properly. Those creatures had respect for Hagrid. Too bad the students didn't all see that point of view. hugs for Hagrid. Go Erin... Can't wait to see what your next post will dig up.

Hey... Duddahs... NAME that site... This is NOT the WB. EEESH! I just have so much trouble getting it out of my mouth... The Le..........The Le........, Oh, I can't spell it... The Harry Potter Lexicon. There, I said it.. Truly dislike and hold absolutely NO RESPECT for the proprietor for the site but unfortunately Duddahs has to admitt that he has been both a contributor and member of that site since it first came online. Been part of The Leaky Cauldron, Mugglenet, Snitchseeker as well as a number of other sites but none, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart, or my Butt depending on what I ate the night before. Nothing compares to The Lovegood Lounge! Home Sweet Home for all things Harry Potter in a GOOD WAY! We have a truly respected and respectful Head Witch here in Miss Charlotte aka Grandpalovegood. Home is as they say, where my heart is.

In January 1996, Harry's 5th year, Educational Decree #26 appears in school (teachers not allowed to give information beyond lessons). the students use it to annoy Umbridge by telling her she can't say certain things to them, if it's not about DADA.

It's funny I think of January as being kind of a quiet month after the New Year's celebration. Amazing how many important things happened in January in the HP world!
