Will it be presidential propaganda that is bound to come? The new Pirates bound headed for a billion dollars? Or the final fantasy novel of a series that 7 years ago, almost no one new of. Nothing else matters. Not elections. Not movies. The year now revolves around July 21, 2007. The release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. What is a safe bet to become the largest and most profitable publishing event of all-time. Adults love it, kids love, nerds love it, jocks love it. It is a cultural phenomenon unlike anything we have every seen or likely to see in our lifetime. When I heard about it at work it was the talk of the office. An office full of accountants and grandmas. You did your happy dance and I did my happy dance and we now count that days down to July 20 where we will be standing in line at 11pm, greedily waiting to get our hands on a copy so that we can stay up until the sun rises reading. The countdown now begins. Not to the Apocalypse, but to the release of the most anticipated novel ever written. Muggles everywhere are rejoicing.
