I want to inform everyone that I now have a keyboard! For "As Dangerous, Tainted and Flawed As You," I had been using my onscreen keyboard, which mean one character at a time. That has changed, therefore my updating speed should change too.

-Am I glamourous? Tell me, am I glamourous?-

I read a blog the other day, John...

These past few weeks have been fairly silent on the topic of Sherlock Holmes. After the false detective took his own life that morning, the papers have run several articles speaking of his death, but none of shed to light that his suicide could be because of what they printed, including this blog you are reading now. We all said things.
But we brought you the truth, dear readers. As it turns out the truth was too much for Mr. Holmes.
Mr. Holmes, who worked many cases with Scotland Yard, and was for hire also, spent his life falsly solving crimes, and who knows how many of them he comitted.
It has been found out that the amature detective hired actor Rich Brook, who is known to do childrens television programmes, to play the part of Jim Moriarty, consulting criminal.
Mr. Holmes it seems, was obsessed with glamour, and in making himself glamourous...

I won't bore you with the rest of it. How riduculous is this!

Am I glamourous John?
Does it feel glamourous to solve crimes and have your life threatened every time you open the garbage bin?

Do you think person who wrote this article has ever faced as much danger as you or I?

Lets look at the definition of GLAMOUROUS, shall we?

From the Oxford Dictionary: Excitingly attractive.

From the Merriam-Webster Dictionary: Excitingly attractive.

From the Harper-Collins English Dictionary: possesing glamour; alluring and fascinating.

And if you read the rest of the article, its all wrong. He never gets to establish what the point really is.

But it did get me thinking Johm, what are our lives like?

I do not think "Glamourous" is the correct word to use for our lives. If our lives were glamourous, I would not have needed to falsify my own death. I suppose we could look at it in a glamourous light, the man who had to leave his friends to save them, and then you, the man who had to carry on bravely without his bestfriend.

So often I am here working on a way to come back to you. Wondering how long I will have to wait before I can come back, will it be a week, a month, a year? How long until all of Jim Moriarty's thugs and hitmen are cut off from their pay? He is dead, at some point his accounts will run dry. How long is he able to pay them for? But he broke into the tower of London, he could very well break into the banks and have an endless suply of money. If that is the case, how do I find and demobalize the operations he has going. One thing is certain John, before I return, every single piece of Moriarty's operation needs to be obliterated, every person needs to be taken out or locked away, every program needs to be shut down, every piece of paper he touched needs to be burned.

His web will fall one day John, that I swear to you.

Sherlock Fact: David Arnold, one of the composers on 'Sherlock' has worked on many of the James Bond films. While Michael Price, the other composer, worked on the Lord of the Rings doing music editing for all three films, as well as worked extensively on 'Band of Brothers'.

Is there a Sherlock Fact you want to know about? I take requests!

Review! Review as though Sherlock and John are going to burst into your home late one afternoon, insisting that you are the one who is going to join them as their actual assistant. Assistant meaning whatever you want it to!
