Hogwarts, Hogwarts,
Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,
Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald,
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling,
With some interesting stuff,
For now they're bare
And full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff.
So teach us stuff worth knowing,
Bring back what we forgot,
Just do your best
We'll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot!



1: The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2: Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3: There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4: Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5: Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6: His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7: The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8: The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9: The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
10: More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11: Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12: Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13: Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
14: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

Move over, Rufus Scrimgeour!

I guess if you're a vampire like Jonathan "the Impaler" Starkey, stalking is the crime they are going to get you on. But the reason I had to post a link to this little piece of "weirdo news" is not because he is a member of the Vampires, Witches and Pagans Party. Nor is it because I'm intrigued by Minnesota politics. It was this line: "Among his proposals was one that would use impalement to execute murderers, rapists and terrorists. " That reminded me of Rufus Scrimgeour's "tough on crime" stance in Half-Blood Prince.

I don't know, I kind of like the public spectacle aspect of impalement. But for Pete's sake, Mr. Starkey, do you think Americans, even Minnesotans, are ready for a vampire to be Governor? They should have started with a Pagan or Witch - I'm sure there are plenty of those in politics already. Heck, I'd vote for Hermione....
