Gotta agree with my nephew Mark: last night I watched Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows and thoroughly enjoyed it. I've been a rabid Holmes fan since 3rd grade and for whatever reason I have no problem with Downey and Law's portrayal, nor with Guy Ritchie's interpretation - I can only conclude there is something profoundly wrong with me. In any case, Stephen Fry was born to play Mycroft.

Kitty Wars continue. I'll re-introduce Polly and Rocky for a short time again today - this time just leaving the door open between them - and see how that works. The problem is Rocky's attitude, but she's the one getting beat up. She's old, and Polly isn't about to take her bullying the way Cupcake does: Polly bullies back, and does so more effectively because she's young. Poor Rocky has lost about 20% of her body weight out of sheer nervousness. So, they're both on meds, and Rocky needs a lot more looking after... but Polly's presence keeps Rocky from bullying Cupcake (who's twice her size, and has the gentlest personality in the world).
