    Quoth Danielle Radcliffe, who portrays Harry Potter in the Paramount films:

    I’d like to issue a public invitation to the Obamas that if their daughters would like a private tour of the “Harry Potter” set, I would be honored to be their personal tour guide.

    (From the Names page of this morning’s Boston Globe.)

    In related news, a colleague of mine found herself in line at Dunkin Donuts yesterday morning, where a strange man tapped her on the shoulder and initiated this exchange:

    Strange Man:  Would you like a breakfast sandwich?
    Colleague: What?

    Strange Man: Would you like a breakfast sandwich?
    Colleague: …

    Strange Man: I have a coupon!
    Colleague:  No, thank you.

    Strange Man: So you don’t eat breakfast!  How about lunch?  Can I get your number?

    The question we must all be asking deep down is: are there women somewhere on the world who, upon hearing that line, agree to a date?

      In my defense I must say I’d have been happy to buy her the breakfast sandwich whether I got the phone number or not.

      Now I have a question for you Mr. Two Things: Why do you keep following me around?
