IRI and Harry Potter - What A Combination
 
Well, it seems like everyone wants to link up their promotional activities with the IRI. What will be next, I wonder. :)

Oy vey... That's pretty much all I have to say... oy vey. I guess this makes sense. "You can still attend IRI and NOT miss getting your copy of Harry Potter!" Truely nerdy. :D

Haha, its really funny actually: we were having a meeting today and I asked my mentor if we'd be able to attend a midnight HP party. I mean hey, we have a 5 hour plane ride back, might as well have Harry Potter 7 for it :]

I wouldn't mind picking up a copy in Indianapolis as a souvenir.
It would be a great read after a great competition and a lot of fun. Nerdy is when you've read each book 3 times cover to cover. I've done that. :D

Only three times? :D

Yeah, I'll hopefully be picking up a copy, if not I'll be getting it right when we get back.

Is it sad that this was part of the consideration of if I should go to IRI this year?

Let it be known that if anyone should ruin the ending for me, (the way the 6th book was) public beatings will ensue. I am sure I'm not alone in this feeling.

Don't ruin what remains of my childhood.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

exactly my thoughts and more of a reason to get it at midnight.

I would do that, but my family is going to pre-order it soon anyways.

Pre-Oder it soon!!! Some Harry Potter fan you are! I've had it pre-order since the release date was announced.

I think you need a button for Saturday, that says "If you tell me a Harry Potter spoiler, I'll go Avada Kedavra on your forehead".

... like someone on a FIRST team at IRI is gonna read 700 pages within one day, while only one of the best groupings of FIRST teams has ever been assembled.

Is Evelyn Wood coming to IRI?

:)

Yeah, yeah... someone can skip ahead. You need the button.

Because I don't like Harry Potter, I'll wear a button that says "Ask me for the ending." Then I'll randomly pick an ending from a deck of cards, with only one being the real one... then you must guess if it's true or false... Evil laugh ensues and I'll gladly take any beating by a FIRST student/mentor.

Haha... JK! I'm taking Lacey to see the movie on Sunday, against my will. Her birthday present...

Otakon, held in Baltimore, is the largest anime convention on the East Coast (second largest in the country) and is being held the same weekend as IRI. Easily at least 10,000 people attend Otakon each year.

I wonder what all the book stores in Baltimore will be like...
I have a friend who will be at Otakon. I don't know if she's a big enough fan to go camp the bookstores for the final Harry Potter book.

I don't know what is nerdier. Otakon and Harry Potter or IRI and Harry Potter.

This will be one of the nerdiest weekends in the history of the world. And I'm taking part in it! (yay!)

Definitely nerdier IMO. Anime... I shiver at the word. :D
