The Town of Odyssey

I've known who Sherlock Holmes is since she joined. :neener: Me too. For some of the same reasons as Sarai. And... looking at an old post that gave it away. ;) I just saw that old post now and realized that must have been how I knew, too. But now it's archived, so only admins and global mods can se...

I'm going to have to be a loyal Chevrolet owner here and vote for GM. On the other hand, in 20 years sans any student loans or mortgages or the like, I may have to switch to Daimler-Chrysler via the Mercedes-Benz S Class. On the other hand, perhaps I should simply curb the extravagance and drive the...

The fact that Apple is getting such a high population percentage rating here is actually somewhat startling. What's the average - something like 2% of computer users right now are Mac users?

I think the resurrection of Holmes's character was also due largely (if not entirely) to a combination of irate readers and Doyle's lack of a literary "backbone" in making the ultimate decision to end the series. But, for some of us, we're glad he was thus weakened by readers as it meant a...

We want a man, a plan, a canal, Panama! See, what gave it away was the avatar. I found the similar styles kind of unnervingly deja vu-esque. And of course, the location of our own Sherlock Holmes allowed me to connect two and two together. Unfortunately, I can't provide you with any more witty pali...

In agreement with Paw/David O, I too love piano. :D I've been playing now for close to 16 years, and its been one of the few things I've had the opportunity to stick with for a fairly long duration. Though initially I was forced into taking lessons and then subsequently despised the piano for about ...

And here I posted a Wikipedia article on Sherlock Holmes...

What more do you people want?

I'm going to have to go with the majority here and choose "House, M.D." simply because Hugh Laurie is the greatest (a la "Jeeves and Wooster).

I admit it, I love Sherlock Holmes... the character, not the user

I don't know how I should take that...

In response to Darcpaw and Catspaw, I have risen to the challenge, and established my own identity. The Life and Times of Sherlock Holmes But if that still doesn't serve to clear up the conundrum, perhaps I might offer this as an alternative? ;) However, I think that I'll have to be left out of the ...

Chandypaw, I have a confession to make. I switched to Mac. *Buries face in shame* But since we're being so intellectually honest here: Lovely desktop. :) Did you create that picture yourself? Alas, no. But it is rather nice in a film noir sort of way. It seems to me that you are still using both co...

An .mp3 of myself playing Scriabin.

(Vanity comments aside, it actually is for a purpose).

I would guess "no" on Crosstreets, but since I'm not a member and am never on there myself, I guess I'm not a very authoritative source. ;) Ah, this looks fun! Might I proffer a guess as well? ;) As to the faction idea: We really do need a Professor Moriarty and possibly an Inspecter Lest...

;) But Sherlock does not look like Gil, and is therefore probably not worthy of the inlove smiley. :( Anne once had a friend in the mirror so I could see her in love with an image of herself (as long as the hair wasn't too prominent). :) Hehe. Quite. And I agree wholeheartedly with the baby-photo a...

Some of the rest of us are waiting for our requests to be filled.

*Chuckles* Must be on a randomized basis.

You guys have me confused,... really confused. This user, Sherlock Holmes, is of the female gender? :-s Or is this all a joke. Given the name, I would have assumed the male gender. :noway: I got scolded many times over for having "Continental Admiral" as my name, and yet, here, people get...

I am tempted to partition my drive into Burger, Blackmun, Marshall, Powell, Stewart, Brennan, Rehnquist, Stevens and White... As it is, perhaps I'll rename a few drives: the hard drive could be Warren Burger, the SD card Byron White, the thumb drive Potter Stewart and the external CD-RW/DVD-R drive...

*Inserts appropriate amazing and scathing reply*

I visited NYC in Spring of 2004 for a UN Conference. Visiting the city was a unique and fascinating experience, but I would never [willfully] choose to live there or visit frequently if I didn't have to.

Too much humanity.

That is shameful. (Far more than merely featuring a depressed robot on XP.) I'm curious, though, about the icon labeled "Mortimer Adler." If I'm reading the text beneath correctly, the files therein are quite large. Lectures? Audiobooks? A digital copy of his guide for 20th century pagans...
