Where are the HP spoilers?

I must be inept at searching but, I would like to read the spoilers and can't find them. It won't ruin it for me, I'll read the last couple pages first anyway.

A month or so ago when that computer hacker site had a chapter I couldn't find it in their website.

Where to go now?

I don't know.. I do know two things...
That the book did get released to some people already, http://www.mugglenet.com/app/news/full_story/1112
and that the New York Times has a review with some spoilers in it...

I am trying my best to avoid spoilers...... But it is HARD and tempting...

I did find one thing and it was so shocking that I almost want to wait.

Tumble_weed, There is a MacKissic distributor listed in Dallas, who should be able to tell you where your MacKissic dealers are. "I am wanting to get a MacKissic 763 or possibly the 12PT10. I am favoring the 763 because of its smaller size, better fit for my small backyard city garden." The 763 costs about $1200, while the 12PT10 costs about $1700. For about $500 more than the 763, the 12PT10 is about twice the machine, so that extra $500 buys you a lot. I keep my 12PT9 (the 9hp predecessor to the 12PT10) outdoors under an optional cover, so garage space isn't an issue for me. It's about the size of a large wagon, so it's not that big, and its four-wheel design makes it more stable and easier to move around. The larger shredder hopper and throat opening make feeding leaves faster with the 12PT10 than the 763. If you can afford it, I recommend the 12PT10 over the 763, even for a small city lot. I think it would give you a better shredding experience, even in a small city back yard. MM

Funny you ask!! I'm working on it hard! Takes time to convince the wife Ya Know! We stopped at the hardware store today. I got a couple of bolts and nuts. The wife was looking at tools, paint, and gardening supplies. On our way out I spotted a ztr with a commercial air breather on it. I hopped over thinking it was a Kohler 30hp. To my surprise it was a Gravely sporting a 31hp Kawasaki. WOW! What a awesome looking motor! BIG! Well placed access to the oil filter and drain plug. Well almost being Gravely has a lot of protected covering around the engine. My wife dared not ventured over being I've playing up the Kawasaki being a big block with a larger crank, rods and pistons. And the fact that it was a built down from a 36hp engine where as the Kohler was a souped up 27hp engine meaning smaller parts. And the big block would work easier, where as the smaller block would labor to keep rpms up. You see, I'm working!! LOL! You can see I really Like The Kawasaki! We're going to the dealer Monday! I'll fill Ya'll in. Thanks! ms

Remove deck and replace 12.5hp motor w/ 3.5hp

Fish is correct about the weight of flywheel being a factor in this scenario. Most "engine swaps" are from a certain OEM horsepower to a larger horsepower replacement. That type of engine swap seldom causes "driveability" issues. Going downward in horsepower might reveal the role of flywheel inertia in getting a stationary machine into motion. Having a heavier flywheel makes it easier to apply the load (gross weight of machine) to the engine without stalling the engine. A heavier flywheel also makes the machine react less to slight changes of load (such as swales or dips). Of course, once you get the machine into motion, it developes and maintains it's own inertia (proportianate to the gross weight of the machine). Getting that machine into motion (especially if it is towing something) might be difficult without a lot of "clutch slipping".

FO fan too. I am so impressed by Gage. I keep thinking if his mom is watching she must be so proud of the son she raised so well. Just a classy, nice, adorable, smart young man. Glad Jenni is staying too - to be honest not sure I would watch without her. Zoila just CRACKS me up. I think Jeff is very talented. I hope he doesn't get involved with the paint business. That industry is so incredibly difficult and entwined. And Gramarcy Place!!!! Wow, if there was ever a reason to tune in next season, huh? So glad to see a FO following here and looking forward to future posts on the new house.

I am not interested in any spoilers. It would ruin it for me. I hope the publisher tracks down the perpetrators and sues the pants off them. In fact, I probably shouldn't have read this thread, just in case.

Please don't tell us anything if you find them! I think I'm going to have to go to "radio/TV/internet silence" for the next couple of days -- I don't want to learn anything accidentally.

My curiosity got the best of me yesterday and, well, I found one of the spoilers. I looked at them and ..... I won't tell you anything about them.

I did, however, see the latest HP movie. Good and interesting flick. Imelda Staunton (who plays Umbridge), is VERY well cast. She's good. Good and ANNOYING in her role.

Oh, and I don't want to spoil the Order of the Phoenix movie for you guys but someone dies in the movie. ;-)

Sorry for that spoiler. :-D

Yes, that's weird. I had read two different spoilers and they were BOTH wrong. I guess you can't trust what you read on the Internet! ;-)

Here's a blog that pretty much gives away everything and opines on the whole reading experience.

Anyone who is interested in the plot summaries without reading the actual books can find them in Wikipedia.

Also at sparknotes.com. I learned about that site here, when the last book came out. You used to be able to print it all out but now they charge for the privilege. But the info is good.
