Harry Potter

How many people do you think have named their kids after characters in the Harry Potter books? Is there some data place out there that keeps track? Is anyone now named Albus? What about Draco? Severus?

Story Songs

I'm listening to story songs today - like Harper Valley PTA and Ode to Billie Joe.
I have been reading the lyrics on the interent as well.
I can read the lyrics pretty quickly.

Why is it that I can read the lyrics so quickly but when I read a book it seems to take longer?

And by that I mean - when you listen to a book on tape it seems to go faster than if you actually read the book yet the lyrics (poetry?) reads so quickly.

I suppose in the recording of the song they have intro and bridges and measures of music and in the book on tape its more straight forward.

Whatever. Or is it becuase book on tape you listen to continuously (sp?) on a road trip and when you read it may take 3 weeks b/c you read a chapter here or there?

So many possibilities.
