...others, I’ll reveal one of my geek-tivities. I am…a Sherlock Holmes connoisseur. I have every Holmes tale as well as books dissecting these stories. But the pièce de résistance of my obsession is a small four-inch bronze bust of Holmes which gazes down from my shelf, reminding me to think critically about situations.
