Harry Potter silliness

We've succumbed to the Harry Hype from last month and finally gave in to reading the books and letting the teens (17 and 15) see the movies. I'm still not convinced these books are great literature, or even worth the time to read them (though JKR can surely spin a story), and I'm far from convinced they are the great Christian apologetics that some claim them to be.

At the same time, I'm pretty sure they're not evil. I'm not picking up any creepy vibes, at least (and my antennae are probably better than average at that).

But I'm only 3/4 through Book 2, so I have a lot to wade through before I can make any complete judgements.

In the meantime, I'm getting a laugh out of this:

I don't recommend all the other Potter Puppet Pal videos, however.
