TO THE WELL-ORGANIZED MIND, DEATH IS BUT THE NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE.
- JK ROWLING
I like to think I’m not so old I couldn’t sweep Ms. Rowling off her feet and help her spend all that cash. And she’s way attractive in that Brit sort of way. And death as an adventure is a concept borrowed from CS Lewis. And that is actual lit. Though I must admit, I think the Harry books are stunning examples of imaginative writing.
My favorite Harry Potter quote, bar none. Dumbledore says it at the end of the first book. I think Dumbledore is saying while death is an unknown he belives that consciousness in some form continues after death, and that this transformation is best experienced by a curious and intelligent mind, one, probably not encumbered by religious dogma and expectation.

Does he steal it from the wallets of his victims?”Well… they DO say “you can’t take it with you” and are remarkably non-specific as to where “it” goes so… Grim Reaper has deep pockets? Just guessing.Hmm. Does this sound WAY to familiar to every taxpayer out there… or is it just me?

Love the ‘multiple arms…’

How many arms does a t-shirt need?

He does look quite preppy now, doesn’t he? As for Rowling, if it’s there in her head, I’m glad she’s willing to share it!

Harry Potter has all sorts of fans.

Death looks kinda cheery in that upbeat tee—it should make his business easier for all concerned. Lio’s prices, however, do seem unnaturally low!

I find it hard to believe that’s original to Rowling.

As someone noted before, just hit the escape button to kill all the jiggling and gyrating avatars.

Sidebar: “2011 Calendar Now Available”With the year almost half over, they’d better be cheap!! (Even cheaper than Lio’s T-shirts…)

I guess he figures people won’t try to escape him when they read his shirt.

Is Lio a Potterhead? If he is, he’s cooler than I thought.
