where is the world is the Harry Potter book burning event?
Hi Lance! It's in New Mexico. Check out the link (in the picture's caption). Makes you wonder why there's still things like these going on in the 21st century.
Wow! I hear about the book burnings of Harry Potter but it's the first time I've actually seen a picture of it.
Funny list by the way. I LOL'd at #7 and 8. :P
LOL! My hell, too! Number 11 could read: You've seriously invested in reading a series, when the author dies before writing the last book! :(
Or : You're up to your balls in a series, and the author chooses to have an indefinite writer's block in the middle of it! (i.e. George R.R. Martin with "A Song of Ice and Fire") GRRRRRR!!!!
I'm shocked, I mean really shocked, that no one has tried to burn my book HERO, the epic coming of age story of the world's first gay male teen superhero.
They burn books about wizard schools? I mean, I grew up in the south going to church. I couldn't be more surprised!

You know your in hell when...
1. You're reading Chp. 3 of The Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (seriously--do it!)
2. The only book you have for eternity is Ulysses!
3. All that is on your book shelf is "self help" books
4. You are stuck in a dream where all the books in the library are biographies by Teri Hatcher, Paris Hilton, Tammy Faye Baker and The kids from Different Strokes
