Did you have a favorite story as a kid?

Wed, 27 Mar 2013 05:16:20 +0000

The Ugly Duckling.
Alternatively, The Bible.

If you can tell a good Chinese restaurant by the bottom part of the door handle, is there a good way to tell a good Italian restaurant?

What do you think of poetry? Do you have a favorite poem?

Wed, 27 Mar 2013 05:15:32 +0000

Poetry is interesting, although it depends on the post that pens or. Often its deliberateness becomes mundane. I like Sylvia Plath and Percy Bysshe Shelley, and some of Wordsworth’s earlier works.

Have you ever been asked to babysit? Are you any good at it?

leonardnimoy — Sat, 09 Mar 2013 05:14:14 +0000

Nobody in their right minds would ask me to babysit their devil children.

How did you celebrate Valentine's Day?

Thu, 28 Feb 2013 06:35:01 +0000

I’ve been busy with cases, sorry. John went out with his latest conquest. I stayed home and played with hearts.
Pig hearts, I mean.

Do you like the snow?

Sat, 09 Feb 2013 06:20:43 +0000

I find it both fascinating and irritating.

Some would say that always stating the truth makes a person rude and ornery. Do you believe this, Mr. Holmes?

leonardnimoy — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 03:40:41 +0000

I don’t see people who are truthful as being irritable at all, although I do think they’re a bit silly.

In the last question someone asked you (even thought it was more of a statement), in the last two sentences, there needed to be a comma after the word Sherlock. Why did you not correct this?

leonardnimoy — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 02:43:52 +0000

Occasionally I come across moods that allow me to ignore my problems.

-SH

Sherlock, I am watching you. Sherlock I am coming. Sherlock I have found you.

Are you the one that’s installed the camera in the flat across the street?

What did you do with the wax bust? Do you still have it in case of emergencies?

Sat, 26 Jan 2013 21:19:40 +0000

Yes, John has it encased in his shrine of me in his bedroom closet.
-SH

I have done nothing of the sort.
-JW

Doesn’t explain why you insisted on keeping it there.

Is your albino frog still alive?

Sat, 26 Jan 2013 21:17:32 +0000

No, it hopped off one day and was never found.
I’ve since acquired another two specimens— I suspect John was the one who left them outside my bedroom door.

Have you ever played in an orchestra?

leonardnimoy — Thu, 24 Jan 2013 02:36:52 +0000

For a bit in University. Father put me through it; thought I was fascinated with orchestras after having seen the London Philharmonic once.

I was kicked out after playing the Jaws theme on my violin during Beethoven’s Symphony 5.

Did you have a flatmate before you met John?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 00:08:42 +0000

No. I flitted around for a bit, sometimes stayed with Victor.

If you don't get paid for your detective work, how do you pay for all the cabs you take?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013 00:07:27 +0000

The Holmes family is quite endowed.
Occasionally it helps to wave around Lestrade’s police badge.

That wasn't the case with the Mazarin Stone, was it?

leonardnimoy — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 03:36:10 +0000

I believe I tagged it as such.

Can you dance? Can John?

leonardnimoy — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 22:17:24 +0000

John taught me to dance.
-SH

He’s not too bad.

How many years have you known Mrs. Hudson?

leonardnimoy — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 19:23:51 +0000

Around 10 years. Helped her out of her marriage just after University.

How is that case that you said you were working on? Have you solved it yet?

leonardnimoy — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 19:21:09 +0000

I hid in a wax effigy of myself and managed to obtain the diamond from the thieves.

-SH

Has John ever made you take a break from cases?

leonardnimoy — Mon, 21 Jan 2013 19:15:44 +0000

He’s tried.
-SH

I tried to take him on holiday once. I’ve learned a lesson. Don’t mention holiday to Sherlock Holmes, or you won’t ever make it out your front door.
-JW

We were unpacked and at home again within the hour.
