  • May 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press
    Jan 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 158th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 11 to Jan. 15. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at O'Casey's and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morning, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's). The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Dr. Lisa Sanders, author of a "Diagnosis" col- umn for the N.Y. Times and the technical advisor for the television series "House, M.D."; the title of her talk was "Is Holmes Crazy As a Fox, or Just Plain Crazy?", and you will be able to read her paper in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal. The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's was well attended, as always, and featured Donny Zaldin and Hartley Nathan in a Sherlockian "Carnac the Mag- nificent" skit and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton, Sarah Montague, and Andrew Joffe) in a Sherlockian tribute to the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber) for the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year; the winner (Karen Murdock, author of "Do You Write Like Arthur Conan Doyle?") received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17.

On the inside, however, it was different. Ten-year-old Encyclopedia Brown, America's Sherlock Holmes in sneakers, lived there. Besides Encyclopedia, Idaville had three movie theaters, a Little League, four banks, and two delicatessens. It had large houses and small houses, good schools, churches, stores, and even an ugly old section by the railroad tracks. And it had, everyone believed, the best police force in the world. For more than a year no one boy, girl, or grownup -- had got away with breaking a single law. 2 Encyclopedia's father was chief of police. People said he was the smartest chief of police in the world and his officers were the best trained and the bravest. Chief Brown knew better. His men were brave, true enough. They did their jobs well. But Chief Brown brought his hardest cases home for Encyclopedia to solve.

Harram Ignition, or The Great American Four Loko Novella When I was eighteen and still deciding about college, my cousin Madison imparted wisdom that proved more concise or potent than anything I’d learn the in next four years of studying marketing: “Everything,” he told me, “is an ad.” This was late in 2003, when Madison and his father had returned to Ohio for Thanksgiving or Christmas, and our conversation came at the end of a day when Madison, my cool cousin, older by six years, had been sneaking me rum and cokes—or maybe it was spiked eggnog—since five PM. It was one of those drunk conversations you have in abundance when you are eighteen and stupid, and yet they seem to stick with you. Despite the triple threat of war in Iraq, terrorism, and torture, I remember the early 2000s as one of the best times of my life, probably because I never watched the news. “Advertising’s a two-in-one,” Madison went on. Once he started on a monologue like this, he couldn’t be stopped. He’d gone to work for a New York ad agency almost as soon as he got out of college on a connection, I’m sure now, from his dad, my Uncle Jerry. “It’s the ultimate two-in-one.” It’s hard to imagine now, but just about all you needed to get a good job then was a bachelor’s degree.
