What About Watson? (Part Three)
Some time ago, I took a test on AOL concerning “left-brained” vs “right-brained” people and I confirmed what I always thought about myself: it turns out that I am an extremely “left-brained” man! Then I got to thinking about Dr. Watson, and considered what his mental processes were like.

"Down in a dark, cobwebbed corner of the vaults of SherlockPeoria is a box with my name upon it . . ." Finding untold tales of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson is one of the secret vices of many an otherwise respectable Sherlockian, and things are no different here . . .
"There are
no limits to the possibilities of monomania."

The
View from Sherlock Peoria
By
Brad Keefauver
One Other Person
With the prime example of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson constantly before our eyes -- like fine oil-change reminder decals on the windshield of life -- Sherlockians should be keenly attuned to the importance of camaraderie, one would think. And, indeed, most of us do know the importance of carrying at least one very good friend in our social arsenal from their model. But this week I couldn’t help but be struck by how important we are to each other at the most basic of levels especially those of us with quirky past-times.Read past editions

Sherlockian Anthologies (revisited)
There was a time in my collecting mania that my concentration was not on foreign translations of the Canon. I was once very interested in all of the various Sherlockian journals, newsletters, and such. I was also once more interested in anthologies that contained at least one of The Sacred Writings. This lead me to create a spreadsheet that lists all of the known anthologies. The list contains more than 500 books although some are different printings or publishers for the same book.
