All of this is from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
On page 75 it says: "seventeen silver Sickles to a Galleon and twenty-nine Kunts to a Sickle" Just nice to know how much things cost around here.
Now on to the more deep discoveries...
On page 115 and I quote "My dear Friar, haven't we given Peeves all the chances he deserves? He gives us all a bad name and you know, he's not really even a goast..."
So, if Peeves isn't really a goast, what is he then?
On page 125 we hear about someone who is mixed blood "I'm half-and-half, said Seamus. Me dad's a Muggle. Mom didn't tell him she was a witch 'til after they were married". I think that's Seamus Finnigan (see page 144).
A poltergeist is a ghost or spirit supposed to manifest its presence by noises, knockings, etc. On page 129 Peeves is mentioned as a poltergeist...and than Peeves is described as "a little man with wicked, dark eyes and a wide mouth..."
So, he is a little man, now is he?
In chapter fifteen, the Forbidden Forest Harry meets Firenze who saves him...because I think Harry was fated to die in the forest if Firenze hadn't done anything.
Than Firenze talks about how even "The planets have been read wrongly before now, even by centaurs" on page 259.
On page 260 Harry talks about how "Firenze saved me, but he shouldn't have done so...Bane was furious...he was talking about interfering with what the planets say is going to happen...Bane thinks Firenze should have let Voldermort kill me...I suppose that's written in the stars as well"
In book seven does Voldermort kill Harry Potter, is that written in the stars? Or, can his fate be changed?
Last observation... Page 294 Voldermort says Lily didn't have to die...Voldermort just wanted to kill James and Harry. So, the question is why?
Read for your self and let me know what you think.
I'll add more when I get done reading book two...
(this is also in my livejouranl, just so you know)

101 Ways To Annoy Lord Voldemort
1. Ask him: "Why he doesn't have such a cool scar?" 2. Laugh at him. 3. Wake him up by singing Beach Boys songs in his ear. "Round, round, get around, I get around..." 4. Knit him things. Really hideous things. 5. Give him kangaroo-ears for a month. 6. Smile during Death-Eater meetings and say you taught him everything he knows. 7. Chew bubblegum all the time. Should he address you, your only response will be a series of huge bubbles in quick succession, the last of which will burst everywhere and make a mess. 8. Dance The Funky Chicken. 9. Ask him when was the last time he took a bath. 10. Pat him on the head and give him flowers when his plans are foiled yet again. 11. If you ever need to say "Like taking candy from a baby", be sure to add "Of course, SOME of us might find that harder than others". Stare pointedly at him. 12. Play "Knock-&-Run" at his bedchamber door late at night. 13. Call him "The-Man-Who-Let-The-Boy-Live". 14. Ask why The Dark Mark couldn't look like something "more socially acceptable?" 15. Insist that you have met chunks of cheese with more cunning plans than his. 16. Pinch him. Make sure he squeals. 17. Be cheerful. 18. When he tries to impress you with his powers say "Awwwww, lookit. Voldie's got a twiggle!" 19. Try to teach him to play a mouth organ. 20. Roll your eyes during plotting sessions and say things under your breath like "You're the boss, boss" or "It's your funeral". 21. Greet him in the mornings with a sarcastic "My sir, you look particularly menacing today". 22. Taunt him about his middle name. "Marvolo? What's that, a washing detergent?" 23. Keep a "good-behaviour chart". Award points and give out gold stars. 24. Magic-marker Potter-style glasses on him while he sleeps. 25. Apparate into and out of his room rapidly. Do this non-stop for an hour. *Poof* there *poof* gone *poof* there ... 26. Play cards with him. Tell him he has no poker-face and how does he expect to rule supreme without one? 27. Let off party-poppers in his face whenever the urge strikes you. 28. "Did you even HAVE a girlfriend? Like, ever?" 29. Get a pair of finger puppets closely resembling himself and Harry Potter. Re-enact all of Harry's victories over him in a spectacularly childish way. Be sure to give them both squeaky voices. 30. Anytime he enters any room, insist on entering first and announcing him grandly. 31. In these announcements, fake a trumpet noise and give him an equally fake drumroll. 32. Exclaim sarcastically "You're breakin' my little heart here, o dark one" whenever he starts to talk of what has caused to become who he is. 33. Encourage him to "think happy thoughts!" 34. Ask him to give you written summaries of his sinister plots for revenge and war. Correct his spelling. 35. Mock his choice of Quirrell as a "host". 36. Tell you think a yoga class could "cure him of his wicked ways". 37. Get the song "Mr. Tambourine Man" stuck in his head. 38. If he's having evil-plotter's-block in one of his scheming sessions "Wingardium Leviosa" a light bulb to float above his head. Turn it on. Look offended when he gets angry and say you "thought you were helping!" 39. Tell him constantly to stop repressing his anger. 40. Buy him a stress ball. 41. Hint that he is only a character in a book and will never triumph. 42. Call him Tommy-boy. 43. If you're feeling gutsy, call him Voldie-poo. 44. Whack him in the arm and say "mosquito" - every few minutes. 45. Say he "looked better under the turban". 46. Eat his pet snake. Offer him some. 47. Endeavour to teach him to steeple his fingers, lean back and say "Eeeexcellent". 48. Start drawing outlandish parallels between his life story and "Star Wars". Talk at great length. 49. Be generally in awe of him and never look away. 50. "Imperius" his Death Eaters into a rousing chorus of "All Things Bright And Beautiful". 51. Shower him with confetti and rice, anytime you think he needs to make a "grand entry". 52. Paint all The Death-Eater masks with bright colours and glitter. 53. Throw him a "Care-Bear's" themed birthday party. 54. Tell him what Severus Snape's really up to. 55. Politely exclaim now and again that you "don't know how he can be so afraid of dear old Dumbles". 56.

That ALWAYS makes him cry. 66. Get him a plant. Act mortally offended when he doesn't water it and it dies. 67. Steal, snap and bury his wand. 68. Tell him Lucius did it. 69. Give Rita Skeeter full knowledge of his whereabouts and contact details. 70. Remind him that he isn't even really alive. 71. Write him a theme song. Start singing it whenever he is about to do or say something particularly clever and nasty. 72. Offer to sacrifice Draco Malfoy "to the cause". 73. Insist on reading him bedtime stories. Include "The Ugly Duckling". 74. Make vague allusions to Harry Potter being his son. 75. When he's done something particularly nasty - cross your arms, waggle a finger and say "Now now, do you really think Salazar would have approved of that?" 76. Ask him how he can possibly wish to harm a single hair on the head of "that sweet, innocent, cute little boy". 77. Tell him Wormtail has a crush on him. 78. Lecture him at great length on why he shouldn't use The Unforgivable Curses. 79. Leave disgusting and rotting dead things near him. Insist that it is "Aromatherapy". 80.
