I did like the movies, and a I had a few of the books and (I think) began reading &#8220;Sorcerer&#8217;s Stone&#8221;, but not much beyond that.

If I knew where my TARDIS is, I would take a step back in time, but I don&#8217;t have one handy :\/ But it turned out to be a very helpful, and in some ways therapeutic, discovery. A couple days after I first watched Accio, I discovered that my then-husband was having an affair. John&#8217;s Shakespearean insults was a humorous way of my dealing with my intense anger and bitterness I had at that time (&#8220;carcass fit for hounds&#8221; (Julius Caesar Act 2, Scene 1)&#8230;. bwahaha!).<\/p>\n<p>Back then I was working a late shift, ending at midnight, and what I would look forward to was watching Hank or John&#8217;s video from that day (Back then, they did one every weekday, alternating days). And that was a great help, one of several during that time in my life. I have always liked how they balanced their subjects of their videos varying from humrous vlogs, to educating their audience about world events\/issues, sharing their traveling adeventures, whatever came up was well worth watching for me.<\/p>\n<p>Since then <a href=\"http:\/\/calverosdepot.com\/blog\/2008\/10\/29\/paper-towns-adventure-part-2\/\">I have met John<\/a>, participated in some way in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/project4awesome\">Project for Awesome<\/a> charity fundraising every year (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=FuXry2XrpXI\">here&#8217;s some highlights from last year<\/a>.
