The Potter Blotter

[pegkerr]

Our local newspaper has started a new daily feature to kick off this Summer O' Potter: the Potter Blotter, where each day they will feature a Harry Potter-related story or discussion. Today's story featured a charming interview with a man who read the books, got fascinated and decided to make a wand for his son. It led to a whole new career for him; he now makes wands full-time. I loved the answer to this question:

Q: What do your kids think about your job?
A: My son and I try each [new wand] out after we make it. The law of averages says one of these times the garage door's got to blow up. It's got to.
