Harry Potter final paragraph

wave, Harry, wave. You're doomed anyway

Here it is, folks: the penultimate paragraph in the most hotly-anticipated book of all time. I stole it from Gawker, and have secreted it over the jump so as to preserve the innocence of any innocents who happen to stumble across the demented galaxy which is the ol’ raincoaster blog.

This book was art directed by David Saylor. The art for both the jacket and the interior was created using pastels on toned printmaking paper. The text was set in 12-point Adobe Garamond, a typeface based on the sixteenth-century type designs of Claude Garamond, redrawn by Robert Slimbach in 1989. The book was typeset by Brad Walrod and was printed and bound by Quebecor World Fairfield in Fairfield, Pennsylvania. The Managing Editor was Karyn Browne; the Continuity Editor was Cheryl Klein; and the Manufacturing Director was Angela Biola.

    Just figure out which is your friend’s favorite character and tell them he dies. I laugh and laugh!

    Am I in the right place?

    Yes it’s really me – I just figured I’d leave a little hello on the most recent entry so you could track me down. We need to play catch-up. I miss you.

    under what? under an overturned tractor? Dear god! Give us your geographic coordinates and we’ll send help immediately, you poor thing!

    So I guess this means Garamond gets it in the end, but Walrod makes it through.

    (And hey, is this really the penultimate paragraph? Do you have the final hiding up your sleeve?)

  11. raincoaster says:

    That’s really the penultimate paragraph. At least, Balk says so and I believe him. He probably snickered like a madman when he found out and RAN to the keyboard.

    But if this is the penulitmate (second to last) paragraph, I guess we still have to wait for the release for the final paragraph…

  14. raincoaster says:

    Wouldn’t that be the adjacentultimate? Oh, man, I only took Classics for like a week.
