"How Dumbledore REALLY Died" Mad Lib Contest + Winner Announced!!!

Question of the Day: Share a website that's in your Favorites folder and why you like/follow that particular site.

For those of you who have already seen HP & Deathly Hallows, I am deeply jealous of you. All I've been hearing are good things about it....actually, that's an understatement. It sounds REALLY awesome! I cannot WAIT to watch it on Friday with one of my dearest friends, *Miss Redhead, whom I have not seen since August.

Aaaaaand now, time for the winner of our Potter Parade Mad Lib Contest: Just Another Sarah! Her blog, The Wit & Wisdom of Another Sarah talks about a variety of topics, but ultimately focuses on writing and literature. She has been blogging since 2007, woohoo! =)

Just a reminder, a mad lib is a word game in which certain words are picked to fill in a paragraph template to produce coherent sentences. In my previous post, I asked you all to make a list of 10 words in these categories:

1) Present tense verb
2) A type of food (either Muggle or magical)
3) An adjective starting with D
4) The name of a body part
5) A Harry Potter character
6) A magical creature
7) Something you love
8) A Number
9) A spell or charm
10) Noun

After tossing the names in a hat, Sarah's was randomly chosen, and this is what was come up with after I filled in the blanks.

"How Dumbledore REALLY Died" Mad Lib

One fine day, Dumbledore was defenestrating along when suddenly a gum drop was thrown at him. "Galloping gargoyles, what was that?" Dumbledore the Desirous cried. A tuchus stuck out and there was Luna Lovegood, standing next to a ridiculously large pixie.

"Luna, did YOU throw that gum drop at me?"

"Why yes, yes I did, Dumbledore," said Luna. "I've decided that I don't like you anymore, and that going to the Dark Side seems more interesting to me than being all good or whatever."

Luna raised her wand and said, "Accio!" A dance came out of nowhere, and Luna lunged it at Dumbledore. In fact, 300 more dances came hurling towards Dumbledore, who had left his wand at his office back at Hogwarts. Needless to say, he hadn't planned on gum drops and dances being thrown at me during his daily morning walk.

Suddenly, Luna cried, "Wingardium Leviosa!" and Dumbledore crumpled into a sad heap on the floor like a pair of baby elephants.

Totally hilarious! Thanks to everyone who participated and entered the Mad Lib Contest... hope you guys had fun. :)

the funniest thing is this sounds like something Luna Lovegood would totally do. She was great in the new movie, by the way. You'll love it!

I'm so disappointed in myself that I didn't use the word "tuchus".

That was so funny!
