    Universal Studios is opening up a Harry Potter theme park in Florida complete with the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the Forbidden Forest and Hogsmeade village.

    "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter," will open in late 2009 in Orlando, officials said Thursday.

    "The plans I've seen look incredibly exciting, and I don't think fans of the books or films will be disappointed," said author J.K. Rowling, who has been working with a creative team to make sure the park resembles the books and films.


    The wife - a Harry Potterphile (sounds dirty doesn't it?) - is beside herself. ::)

    Just for that, Jonesy, may a wayward Nimbus 2000 be lodged in your rectum.
