Grade School, My Dear Watson!
Kevin is wishing us a very happy Sherlock Holmes Day, although aside from being fictional he has absolutely nothing in common with the brilliant consulting detective. I guess you could argue that people often found it difficult to follow their thought processes...but for widely different reasons.
It's also the anniversary of Sir Laurence Olivier's birth on this day in 1907, and it's worth noting that the actor played Professor Moriarty opposite Nicol Williamson as Sherlock Holmes in The Seven-Per-Cent Solution. It's also worth noting that Jamie White's acting was once compared to this great actor by Daria: "Laurence Olivier, in his present state, couldn't have done better."
I hope Andrea knows that today is World Goth Day, although I doubt she'd care. It's not like goths need a special occasion, after all. Still, she could take the opportunity to share some of her poetry, if everyone has the stomach for it.
