Anyone else find it extremely annoying when some one names some form of media SO CLOSE to the title of somthing else that they litraly either add or subtract the word 'The' or 'Of' or such.  As in, Darkest Hour, the really good Spiderman book, and The Darkest Hour, the not so great 2011 sci-fi movie. 

Or The Dark Side of the Moon and Dark Side of the Moon.  I mean come on.

I think the fact that Harry, an admittedly young yet still powerful and knowledgeable enough to be on the WC Wizard, thought the potion to be literally impossible implies it is very advanced.   I mean we are talking about a guy that makes fire, a potion that made everyone ignore him, and another one that was like super lust in a bottle.  If he thinks something is impossible to do(not for him but for anyone), it must at the very least be incredibly hard to do.  

Here's something that bothers me about the BC attack on Arctis.  The BC must have known that the only thing keeping the Summer court from helping the council against the vamps was that winter was on summers borders.  So why would they attack Arctis and risk winter pulling back to defend its own territory, thus leaving Summer open to help the Council just as it did when harry 'attacked' Arctis?  

Also I think we can all agree that whatever the BC is, they aren't stupid.  What did they think they could possibly gain from this attack?  They must have known going in that they where unlikely to significantly hurt winter or get to Mab.  As per WOJ you can infere that although Mab is pissed about the attack, she didn't think it was all that big a threat as she didn't call for help.


OOOh now I just had another idea.  if Mab did call for help, harry would have had zero chance of breaking in to get Molly.  So maybe Mab would have called in some bigger guns during the fight if it wasn't for the fact that she wanted Harry to come to Molly's rescue (for some reason).  So what if some how the BC KNEW that Mab wouldn't pull her forces off the border, because she needed Harry to be able to get to Molly, so instead she did the whole ' I'll just freeze myself, haha you can't get me' thing and let her normal contingency of guards to beat on.  Maybe thats why Mab is soooo pissed, because for a brief moment her own plans made her vulnerable and the BC was able to act on it... to do... something.... still not sure what they where after.

This could also explain why Mab had most of her muscle on the border to begin with, she needed them away from her center of power or Harry wouldn't have stood a chance.  They did say more then once that what Mab was doing threatening Summer at a time like this didn't make much sense, even for her.  I don't buy into the whole "her knight was off the field" thing cause she could have gotten a knew one at any time.  I think she just needed her Army occupied doing something else right then...  Yeah, I like that idea.  

At the risk of repeating myself:

Here's one that's been bugging me for a while:

When Harry's house caught fire in Changes, why, exactly, didn't Mouse just start with his "Patented ALARM! Bark" to wake Mrs. Spunklecrief and the upstairs people?

Because then Jim would have had to come up with some other way to break Harry's back...

I've got  a question thats been bugging me for awhile, why was that Dragon (who from all the WoJ and such I've read could very well be the most powerful entity we have seen to date) at Bianca's party???

will Jim be there all 3 days?

I'd ne done for a fan dinner, but still need to convince my wife....  Silly broadway doesn't have showtimes that fare in advance it would seem.  =/
