My God, I had no idea there were so many references to Holmes.
Poor Sherlock (the other Sherlock, the one in London, had he ever
really lived :( ) he must be spinning in his grave (had he ever had a grave, poor chap :? ).
This is all getting too weird. I think I'll finish reading "The Hound of the Baskervilles"
(for the hundredth time) and go to bed.

You guessed it, Sherlock. I've been a Bond nut almost as long as long as I've dug Mr. Holmes (the other Mr. Holmes :)).
Don't ask me why I chose Drax as my nom de plume. I guess because he was such a nifty bad guy (and he wore a "plain gold Patek Philippe" :lol: ) Actually I was thinking of using Professor Moriarty but it takes too long to type it out. :?
I'm sure we can be friends even if (sigh) you're not a fan of your
namesake. :wink:

Sherlock,

Drax's Patek was mentioned in the novel. I honestly don't know what
watch -- if any -- the celuloid Drax wore. :? I think that was the period when Bond (Roger Moore) started wearing all of those ridiculous
quartz watches. :cry: There for a few of the Bond flicks, I tuned out,
didn't pay much attention to any of the watches worn in the films.
Anyway, have fun watching the movies. We can talk about them any
time you'd like.

Steve
