Here's a couple shots of Cor from my trip to Los Angeles last week. He's positively edible! He is on the brink of language. Today, I am his "ga-gang." In a couple of months, perhaps I'll be his "uncle," and then perhaps I'll be more than an unadorned noun (maybe "funny uncle"?).

Like several million other people, I started and finished Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix earlier this week. I read it in two sittings, the 2nd sitting running into dawn the next day. So, yes, I couldn't put it down, but I also don't think that it really had to be 870 pages. It could be much shorter without losing anything. Also, Harry is a wee whiny and cranky for my tastes, and I don't think J. K. Rowling has really broken new ground except for Harry's irritating impatience.
