By the time you read this article the game might already be played. It is Penshire�s last game and they are up against Ravenclaw. So far Penshire has pulled wins against the other houses. They are crossing their fingers and pursuing luck potions in hope of the same outcome. Captain Bryony Casten has us practicing several times a week. The roster is set and now all that needs to be done is to play hard. We hope to see you all in the stands!!

Gryffindor has never really had its own fight song, but Gawyn Crossguard and Kimmie Brandon decided that should change. They started a thread in the common room about making one and slowly pieced together a really cool song for the Lion's! The song was made by Kimmie, Gawyn and also Hermy. It's really cool, but not done yet. Here's what they made so far:
[Verse 1]
We stare Fear down right in the face
Heck, we don't even fear Fear herself.
Because this is Gryffindor's place
and we have his good health.
We never leave without our mace,
and no one beats us with our stealth.
[Chorus]
Gryffindor, Gryffindor is our home
and the family we'll never leave.
With our abs of steel, nerves of chrome,
we'll face our troubles in our graves.
What we start ends in a victory
Within us beats a Lion's heart
No one can claim we are cowardly
We fight not flight over ramparts.
[Verse 2]
Others might claim we are insane,
but without that we would flee
When we come down they will feel pain
Our joyous jubilee
careful is how we use the brain
to claim success for free
All our enemies have been slain
Keeping us so happy.
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
With extreme determination,
We will stand rooted to our spot
It totally rocks and I'll let you know once it's finished! Go Lions!!

The Monster Mob is a collection of smilies with names in well... a mob. They get together and play!! Well not really, but they are together a lot, on many people's siggies. The 'Official Monster Mob' consists of:
George - The flipping smilie
Patrick - The devil smilie
Professor Opal - The 'ph43r' smilie, the man in the mask.
Jon - The mad smilie
Jerry - The whip!
Bob - The puking smilie
Fred - The hyper smilie
Tim - The dizzy smilie
Calvin - The wizkid smilie
Bubba - The 'yum' smilie
I think that's all of them, please correct me if I'm wrong. Well, now you know all about the Mob, so I expect you NOT to be surprised when you hear about them. Understood?

What do Muggles know about Hogwarts? We have not much but seems a Squib told all of his Muggle friends about the magical schools and the press actually believed him:

Now what, exactly are the smilie names, you ask? The Smilie Names are a collection of smilies on the BB that have names. It is a very interesting club, and even PAD has posted in it! Well, it's not exactly a club, if you get my just. Here are the names of the smilies:
- Joe
- Rose
- Thomasina
- George
- Patrick
- Professor Lockhart
- Professor Opal
- Jon
- Jerry
- Bob
- Fred
- And of course, PAD!
Professor Opal's smilie is very odd, being the 'ph43r' one, the one in a mask. The others range from whip to puke and all have just the right names. So stop on down to the 'Smilie Names' and start naming those smilies! We've got a lot to name!
