My friend Shylock Humes stood before the fireplace in his smoking jacket. I shook my head. "Come away from the fire, Humes", I adjured. "I told you you would catch fire if you stood so close."
Before my friend could answer, the doorbell rang. To be more accurate, someone rang it. We did once try a self-ringing doorbell, which I had purchased from an ininerant self-ringing doorbell hawker, but w...

Shylock Humes was curled up in his chair like a coiled serpent. Why on earth he chose to have a piece of furniture shaped like a snake I had no idea. But that was my friend all over. His things were always all over the place. He used to leave his papers, smoking accoutrements and clothing lying all over the sitting room. Clutter was his middle name. Actually, it was Horatio, after the famous Admir...

Look, thanks. Firstly, just thank you. You really have gotten into gear to save my species, you humans. Stopping the Japanese fishermen, stopping people from skinning us. Thanks.
But, really... you're still killing us, unwittingly. It's great, letting us back into the wild.
My cousin, Larry, was in the Aqautic London Zoo. Airlifted to Alaska. Great place. One problem.
Numerous Pods of minke and sperm whales were spotted off the coast of Japan today, making loud spouting noises and squeals of excitement as they received updates about the ongoing Japanese disaster from Kelly, the equally excited one-legged seagull.
