I’m a Holmsian, a Trekkie and still suffer with Beatlemania. And I’m an unsuccessful author!

You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain’t it hard when you discover that He really wasn’t where it’s at After he took from you everything he could steal How does it feel? Bob Dylan

Now, he’s hell-bent for destruction, he’s afraid and confused And his brain has been mismanaged with great skill All he believes are his eyes And his eyes, they just tell him lies But there’s a woman on my block Sitting there in a cold chill She say who gonna take away his license to kill?

“Is there anything else you wish to draw my attention to, Mr Holmes?” “To the curious incident of the dog in the night time.” “But the dog did nothing in the night time.” “That was the curious incident.”
