    Sheesh, I didn't even get a semi- or demi-human, let alone the perfect man ... I also got Pharrell's hat! This may actually explain much about my life.......

    Found this: http://www.lawfirms.com/resources/criminal-defense/burglary/the-basics-a-burglary-case.htm Altho I just assumed (as in, didn't think about it one way or the other ) that JM was being tried for ... well, for being a consulting criminal.

    Benedict's been selected as one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People of 2014! Link: http://time.com/#70781/benedict-cumberbatch-2014-time-100/ However, I found the website virtually unnavigable, so here's the text (full text? Can't tell.) of the article here. Note who wrote it.

    Cool. You may be on to something! So, let's see..... how do we fit that into the cosmology of Telperion and Laurelin?
  11. Arcadia
    Nah, I can't find any close-ups either. Not much help to you I'm afraid.....

    Closely followed by: "And the madman himself? He's fascinating. Arrogant, imperious, pompous. He's not safe, I know that much. I'm not going to be bored and I doubt we're going to be arguing about whose turn it is to pay the gas bill or what we're going to watch on the telly. And yeah, he is probably most likely definitely mad. But, he knows a couple of nice restaurants so he's not all bad." LOL, John, your priorities!

    There's some great bits in the blog. One of my favorites is John's first impression of Sherlock: "I think he might be mad. He was certainly arrogant and really quite rude and he looks about 12 and he's clearly a bit public school and, yes, I definitely think he might be mad but he was also strangely likeable. He was charming. It really was all just a bit strange." Right the first time, John!

    I said it was my best guess, I didn't say it was a very good one!

    You think that might be the White Tree? I can't really make it out.

    I'd never even heard of the guy until I found this forum, and then I watched a few interviews and found him funny, clever and passionate about his creation. Then I READ a few interviews and found myself getting annoyed at him. Which I think is a cautionary tale; a) Sometimes it's better not to learn too much about a thing that you love; b : be wary of the transcribed word. They're often out of context, you don't hear the tone in which they're delivered, you don't see the visual cues a person gives off when they speak; etc. Do I think Moffat likes to misdirect the fans? Sure. If I were him, I'd want to protect any surprises I cooked up too. Do I think he deliberately tries to "disrupt" the fandom? Who knows, but I personally doubt it, because I don't see what there is to be gained from that. But it's a funny old world, anything's possible! Don't know why I'm writing this actually, I don't really feel the need to defend or attack Moffat either way. Just something about it's been sticking in my head since I first read it, so I'm putting down my rather random thoughts on the subject.

    Still stumped!

    N?

    Gee, what shall I pick? T?

    I’m not saying a word....

    Yep, that's it! (And then he DOES take his advice ... )
  22. Arcadia
    Oh, is that what we call it?

    I've always been a bit puzzled by Sherlock's finances too ... in the first episode he implies he needs a roommate so he can afford the place, but from that point on he never acts like it. It's all very mysterious....
  24. Arcadia
    Because he allows them too! But I agree, it's not out of weakness, it's out of what I guess to be a kind of self-confidence; he knows he's capable, he doesn't have to bristle every time someone .... well, puts him down. But I'll bet he doesn't forget, either. I personally think that's why he seemed to take an instant dislike to Irene and Mycroft (and probably some others I've forgotten) -- they were dismissive towards him the minute they met him. Also I think sometimes he's just so gobsmacked by all the immature behavior around him that he's too stunned to react....!

    And there she is with her Elf-ears now, she must have heard me typing about her.
