Sherlock v. Sherlock


I have always been fascinated with most of the Sherlock Holmes movies in the past. I saw the two Sherlock movies starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law and really enjoyed them. I have even started following The Sherlock Holmes Society of London. But recently my daughter has started watching the BBC version of Sherlock Holmes starring Benedict Cumberpatch.




Now admittedly, I enjoyed both Sherlock's but Robert Downey Jr. is no match in the Hottie Mchottie department like Benedict Cumberpatch! Ben's sultry voice and deep blue eyes leave me weak in the knees. His character as Sherlock is very intellectual and calculating.




On the flip side (meaning the American Holmes), Robert Downey Jr. as Holmes is more charismatic and witty. This Holmes is not shy about calculating how to beat the crap out of his enemy. I also like his acting style.





Now this blog is not going to be a point by point on each character or actor. I just merely wanted to point out that I am now a HUGE FAN of Benedict Cumberpatch and his wicked handsome self as the Brit's version of Sherlock Holmes. Of course this new celebrity crush is coupled by Ben playing the part of Khan in Star Trek...


and lending his most awesome voice to the dragon Smaug in The Hobbit.


So awesome!


Well, I know I got off subject a bit off subject but that's ok. I'd like to get ON subject when it comes to Ben Cumberpatch.

Until next time....

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

Change of the guard, nail style

I have had the flu for the past week which offered me the opportunity to spend time with my nails. Turn a negative into a positive, right? Well, after my last post I thought about the products that I was using to try to get my nails to grow.  My Pinterest account  Jennipher Dallas  has been getting a lot of "likes" and repins. My board 'Nails I wish I had'   has especially been getting a lot of attention. One picture in particular has had over 300 likes/repins since my last blog. The picture is of the OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener. I did look up OPI and although they do not do animal testing but there is formaldehyde in it.  When you're sick you think about how you got sick and what you need to do to get better. So this got me thinking about the stuff in the products that I use. Formaldehyde has been linked with Cancer . Now, I'm not going to go into to all that stuff and preach about it. Everyone has to make their own decisions. But I decided t...

Dilemma-ethical-uh?

If you google the word dilemma it comes up with the following definition: "A situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives, especially equally undesirable ones." Then goes on to give synonyms like quandary, predicament and vicious circle.  *Sigh* Well, wonders never cease in my world and for the sake of my sanity I hope my five whole readers understand what I am about to spill. Everyone has someone in their family that does not sit right with them (I'm trying to be ambiguous here for a reason). I am no different. I have no real family anymore. Since my father died almost two months ago, I have NO family anymore. Sure, I have a sibling, who is a complete and utter moron. This person is a run away from responsibility, self-centered individual who I have tried to help throughout the years. The other person is a selfish, self-centered, manipulative, gas bag who thinks the world revolves around them and goes out the ...
