How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Wolfram, yes, I can do that. It shouldn't take too long.

Because books.
FYI: Turner Classic Movies seems to be running Holmes movies all evening, including The Woman in Green and Terror By Night.

I was just about to mention that, AmyLiz. They're starting at 8pm EDT (check your local listings), and there will be three in a row. I think they're having a Basil Rathbone night.

Great minds, great minds...

Ann, that's a ferret.

Deena, TCM is doing what they call "Summer Under the Stars." Each day (for values of "day" that run 6:00 a.m. EDT to 6:00 a.m. EDT), they run a 24-hour marathon dedicated to a single star.
It's their August tradition. I was very pleased when they devoted my birthday to Katharine Hepburn.

I've been enjoying them too, FredPete. I love old movies. Katherine Hepburn is one of my favorites. I'm not much of a Crawford fan (too many memories of that wire hanger) but I enjoyed the spy film last night.
The one after the Holmes films is Danny Kaye with Basil Rathbone. Danny Kaye is one of my all time favorites.

Across to Singapore -- a silent with Ramon Novarro -- is waiting on the TiVo.

I'm not a fan of the Basil Rathbone Holmes, and in particular, I hate the way they portray Watson. To me, Jeremy Brett is the One True Holmes (and I saw him in a Sherlock Holmes play in London).

wrod. Watson may not have been on Holmes' intellectual level, but he wasn't a bumbling doofus.
