X is for Xenophilius

I do love the Harry Potter books, but apparently not as much as some.  There is an entire Harry Potter Wikipedia devoted to characters and back story.  That just seems a little weird to me.  But if you want to find out everything you never wanted to know about this character, go here.

Of course X is also for xanthopsia which is a visual disturbance that makes objects appear yellow.  As yellow is a happy color, I don't think I would mind very much.

    I learned a lot from this short little post. course, don't think I'll remember any of it for more than 3 seconds, but still it was interesting while it lasted. And while most of us are struggling to come up with one X word you managed to X-pound on two! Great post!

    Great X words! I'm not sure I'd want everything to appear yellow, though... :)
