Actually, I'm pretty sure it's listed as "Stimpson J. Cat" on his "Professional

Well, I saw my first Ren and Stimpy. It was only 15 minutes. Is that really
called an episode or is it simply a commercial break? :-)

It is a bit strange to say the least but it got funnier as it neared the end.
Mostly because Ren started to get 'excited', shall we say? :-)

But the one thing that struck out at me in this show was that it had an element
of tragedy and drama in it that was totally absent from say, Rocky and
Bullwinkle or even Ralph Bashki's Mighty Mouse (who could forget _that_
series!). :-) Is this normal for the series or just one of those momentary
things that happened? :-)

Talk to you later. Still waiting for Happy, happy, joy, joy. :-)

P.S. What are the lyrics for that song?

  For my .02 worth, the "suck eggs", "grandaddy of all liars" and 
  "told you I'd shoot" lines were all used by Burl Ives in the
  1959 film "The Big Country", where he played a ruthless squatter
  named Rufus Hennesy.  I suspect John K. is a real Ives

Hopefully, Nick will show Stimpy's Big Day/The Big Shot Sunday morning.

When I was 11, my father returned from a trip to England with the Challenger

"The Poison Belt" (end of the world), "The Land of Mist" (spiritualism),
"The Disintegration Machine" (self-explanatory), and "The Day the Earth

Yes, he's the son of the late great English actor Sir Cedrick Hardwick.

At the time that Doyle wrote the stories, Baker Street's numbers
didn't go up past 100.  But today there actually is a building
numbered 221 (though no B :-). It's a Midland bank.
They hire a full-time secretary whose job it is to answer
all the letters.  I be*lieve* the form letter reads that
Mr. Holmes no longer resides at the address and has retired to
the country to keep bees.

In London, there are several agencies that give "Sherlock Holmes"
walking tours, where they'll drag you all over NE London and point out
Sherlockian places and sights to you, like the Langham Hotel
(where the King of Bohemia stayed), 221 Baker Street, a house on
the older section of Baker Street that's from the period, the Post
Office in Wigmore Street, a gallery that has several Vernet
paintings hung on its walls, etc.  S'alot of fun, although I
found I knew more than the guide, who was actually happier doing
the Georgian Houses walking tour. :-)  If I recall corrrectly,
they start you off in the Baker Street tube station, which is not
only decorated in Holmes motif, and shows is age by having steam
vents in the ceiling of the tunnels, but also has a pub called
Moriarty's.

The book, SHERLOCK HOLMES'S LONDON, by Kobayashi, Higashiyama and
Eumura (ISBN 0-87701-380-2) is a rough pictorial equivalent of
the tour.  Except they had sunlight when they did it. :-)

I also got a big kick out of walking past a big white house with
a plaque on it reading, "Charles Babbage's House..."

Sorry to disillusion you, Nadine, but Sherlock only lip-syncs.  I was
equally shocked to find him warbling in "My Fair Lady," and immediately
posted to rec.arts.movies to inquire about Brett's singing career.  Alas, I
was flamed unmercifully. 

If you listen to the song it's pretty obvious that it's not Brett singing. 
Too high pitched.  But can he sing?  He has a wonderful speaking voice.

I don't ever remember Holmes killing anyone, except Moriarity.  There
were some questionable incidents, like chasing what's-his-name onto
the moor, and Watson blasted a person or two, but I certainly didn't
see Holmes as a Dick Tracy type.  Was this another artifact of the
imperfect translation process (anyone that diddles Holmes at all is
imperfectly translating, IMO).

I believe you're wrong.  The cocaine was present for a simple reason:
Holmes used it.  ;-).  Actually, I thought it added a lot to the
characterization--the man was bored with everyday life and only happy
when he was engaged in a case.

For the benefit of those that haven't read it, I highly recommend
``The Seven Percent Solution'' (speaking of Holmes and cocaine).
Excellent.

	They're setting you up for the next episode in the series, "The

Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls.  Moriarty doesn't appear in the original
story of "The Redheaded League" at all.
	The episodes you're seeing now on A&E originally appeared on PBS

Brett once said in an interview he deliberately tried to add depth to these
legend. He was right to do so, I never watched the other guy who did Holmes
(nor for that manner, any Sherlock Holmes movie/TV show/etc.) But my first
exposure outside of an occasional TV reference or parody was reading an actual
Holmes novel, "The Hound of the Baskervilles." To me, from the novel, I
gathered the following facts:

1. Watson was quite a clever man. Not the dullard as portrayed by Bruce in
those 1940's and 50's shows. In fact, he seemed to be almost an intellectual
equal with Holmes except having more emotion.

2. Holmes was not cold, logic. He was logic with a fierceness, concern and
compassion but all kept calmly in place. Very Spock'ish I thought when I read
the novel. Also, what caught my mind and made me a Holmes fan was the apparent
sense of humour he had and that he was quite human and liking a flare for the
dramatic, as in his revealing his presence on the moor to Watson.

3. The storiesd were amazingly logical and fluid, but not in anyway a boring
read. The observations on human nature were quite amazing to me.

I haven't read any of the other Holnme stories because my local library's
copies are forever out of the library and I am too cheap to reserve them. I am
thinking of reading the Sign of Four, the Short Stories and several other of
Doyle's works.
