Dumbledore is gay — Rowling

Posted: Sat, 20 Oct 2007 11:10:23 -0500

Sounds like JK Rowling may be developing the sense of humor of the uber rich along with the cash. Become a fabulously wealthy individual as well as earning the reputation and respectability, perhaps, of something like a folk hero for returning the young to the obvious benefit of reading.

Here is a story that might be worth following. A rather bizarre image may be produced in your mind’s eye as you attempt to imagine the view on an LED lit street. It’s a reasonable guess they won’t be the same LED’s you have for pilot lights on circuit boards. Maybe all the buildings will be virtual and everyone must wear high tech headgear.
