The summer of Harry Potter vs. Hillary Clinton. Wow, it's like porn for horny Barnes & Noble execs. You get mom coming in to pick up Hill's tome while dragging the brats over to get the new Harry Potter. It's true, people WILL read again.

It's being released over a weekend, so maybe you don't need to quit your job yet. I'd like to see you try to get fired, and then you hole up in a bunker, a la George Costanza.

why wait in line? I bought mine on amazon in January, and they promised to deliver it to me the day of its release. It worked last time...
