Speaking of books made into movies. I just saw a trailer for The Time Traveler's Wife. And I am worried. VERY WORRIED. This is one of the best books I've read in many years and they are going to butcher it. I just know it. Has anybody else read it? It is NOT chick lit, though it is a love story.

LONDON – A judge has sentenced a cast member of the "Harry Potter" films to 120 hours of community service for growing marijuana.

Twenty-year-old Jamie Waylett, who plays school bully Vincent Crabbe in the magical movie franchise, pleaded guilty to producing the drug at a court hearing last week.

Prosecutors said police found 10 marijuana plants growing in a bedroom at Waylett's mother's house in London.

Producing cannabis carries a maximum 14-year sentence. Judge Timothy Workman said Tuesday that he accepted that the cultivation was on a small scale and for Waylett's own use.

He said the actor had been, "until now, a man of good character."

I don't want to get up on my marijuana-prohibition-is-absurd soapbox again but the judge saying that ""until now, (he had been) a man of good character" just shows how ridiculous this has become.
