So, here's the THEORY: Minerva McGonagall is an amazing
actress, but she's also deeply and passionately a Death Eater—probably even
one of Voldemort's most trusted and loyal followers. As such, she sometimes
shows her true colors. Considering her age, she could have known Voldemort
during their school days. As a spy for the Death Eaters, it is her job to
suck up to Dumbledore. But—unlike Snape—she is highly unwilling to do
anything to help the Order. Perhaps she's bidding her time; perhaps she's
foiling them more than we know.
So, let's get down to it. Let's painstakingly go through the books and
watch McGonagall very carefully.

is Evil: The Ultimate Essay
Having read all the books except the last one (which is just now coming

The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:

You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
