Found in the library a set of DVDs with Sherlock Holmes stories played by Jeremy Brett. Never heard of him, but his play is very enjoyable. He is a very good Holmes me think...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Yep. He's the perfect Sherlock Holmes. There was a bit about those productions that was a little over the top and ham fisted.
But as an incarnation of the Holmes stories, they're second to none.
Most if not all of them are available on youtube.

He played him to perfection.
Got a bit rough at the end but he was dying at this point.
He was as much Holmes as David Suchet was Poirot.
The defining performance of a generation.

Indeed. They had many of his Sherlock Holmes movies on Netflix, and it was a pleasure to watch. Read up on him on wikipedia, it's quite interesting how the Holmes character affected him.

Just a trivia note:
He (much younger) also played Freddy Eynsford-Hill in My Fair Lady (1964)!
A positive attitude may not solve every problem, but it will annoy enough people to be worth the effort.

I've recently contacted my coach to schedule me another fight. I think it's a go because we are discussing lead time for the training camp. Probably/hopefully in august.

FTFY.

We tied him up and threw him in the sea. "Bob-for-a-short-time" we called him.

Stop by my place anytime, and we'll find a gym. I'm horribly out of practice, so a bit of sparring would probably do me a world of good.

I guess the author of my Haskell course really wanted to be a poet.
I found this while going through chapter 8: Functional Parsers:
Alternatively, the parser type can also be read as a rhyme in the style of Dr Seuss!
A parser for things
Is a function from strings
To lists of pairs

It's an OO world.
public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}

That's probably a valid Haskell program

It's quite satisfying on a tablet as well...
The number of slaps rises quite sharply, so he seems to be getting quite a few lumps... Probably striking teachers!

And trust me, they don;t come much more of a waste-of-time than Michael Gove.
Or oxygen, come to that - a third rate political hack who thinks he's a lot, lot brighter than he is. Predictably, in charge of UK education.
