I'm Rockinsticks and this is Weekend Report.  In our Top Story this week Mascot Rights.  Heated discussions took place in the common room over the ethical ramifications and preparation methods for astrological animals.  With Astronomy not on the class list this term Slytherins felt safe embracing the tasty possibilities of twin fish, and angry mutton.  Frowned on was the ingestion of mermaids and virgins though future debates will be held to determine the correct usage of the term "eat".

Weather:  Work on your OWL or SeaShelly will rain fire down upon thee.

In other stories Quidditch continues the quest for immortality.  The Slytherin stands erupted with a roar as Gothknitty scored with all three Hallows!  Let's look at the highlight reel.

Resurrection Stone

Forgivable Curse of the Week:  Mandrake Butt! Can be used as an expletive, "Ahhhhrgg Mandrake Butt!", or a proper noun, "Please pass the salt to Mandrake Butt at the end of the table."

From the Sub-human Interest Desk - The End.  How fitting it is that our last chance to dress like a middle aged boarding school girl and go to a midnight movie coincides with the end of term.  It's got me wondering what you all do on the months in between terms.  Do you still craft HP themed things?  Do you skim the books looking for obscure references you may have forgotten?  Or do you drink away the previous term's OWL memories and renew your vows as a born again muggle?  Leave a comment - it gives me something to do in boring meetings.

This is Rockinsticks saying - 15 more days.

I'm Rockinsticks and this is Weekend Report.  In our top story...DUCK!!!!! Or rather OWL.  Nine days into July and three spectacular Slytherins have put their pencils down and turned in their OWLs to the examiners. 
The Lambchop00 and KnitInferno showed off their mastery of multiples of footwear with four pairs of socks each.

Meanwhile in the Care of Magical Creatures paddock, 2nd year snake Oshelle tamed the mighty Bowtruckle with over 3,000 yards of stash busted.

Nice work ladies lots of points for the noble house of Slytherin much warmth and cozy toes for you. 

Weather:  Buffalo golden solar flares expected to force all of us to abandon our computers in favor of finishing our OWLs.

In other stories, Hottie Camouflage Spells.  It was revealed this week that dark arts have been at work in Gryffindor Tower.  Our lovely tower dwelling fiends have found a way to magically render hotties to look unappealing to the general population. 

Exhibit one:

Disguised Hottie:

Same Hottie sans camouflage spell

One has to wonder what the so called "fat lady" in the portrait really looks like. Could mastery of this spell be the secret for finally allowing each Slytherin to take their favorite hottie with them throughout the castle? 

Forgivable Curse:  Slippery pickles of itchiness!

Finally from the Subhuman Interest Desk, talking to yourself.  So what do you as an everyday dungeon dweller want to see more of on the Slytherblog?  What do you want to see less of?  Leave a comment and let me know. 

That's all for this week.  I've got to go crank out 9 more mini socks so that I can make the OWL feature myself one day.  Keep working on those OWLs and awesome classwork.

I'm Rockinsticks and this is Weekend Report, wait, no, maybe it is Snake Stalking, no um maybe Hottie of the week....

a mildly leather clad hottie walks to the desk and firmly slaps Rockinsticks across the face.

Thank you Sven.  As I was saying, this is weekend report.  In our top story decisions.  The first few days of July saw Slytherin housemates rich with choices.  Are they to jump right in to the new and exciting homework assignments, do they buckle down and knock out their OWLs, face up the the Headmistress Challenge or continue the pursuit of Horcruxes and Hallows.  In true Slytherin form stash was sorted and plans formulated for racking up points the last month of the term.  One hottie was quoted as saying, "My mistress, she is so distracted.  I try to soothe her and she swats me and not in the way I prefer."

Weather:  A mildly strong high low front will be plying singles through the night.

In other stories classes are up and challenging to say the least.  Snakes will really need to stroke their crafting and creativity muscles to tie classes into their work.  It was this reporter's intention to provide some suggested patterns, but frankly I am stumped.  Inspired yet stumped.  Maybe some of you have some thoughts?

Forgivable Curse:  Holy swift and wound up balls!

Finally from the subhuman interest desk I'm simply going to direct you to last week's subhuman interest desk segment.  I've received two jokes for Mistress Dru.  I realize she is back and better than ever, but lets go ahead and collect a few more anyway.  Who couldn't use a card full of jokes.

This is Rockinsticks and her bottle of gin big grin saying settle down snakes we got 31 days.
