![]() ![]() Up till now, I have been glad to agree with this decision because to the best of my imperfect recollection (and my often difficult-to-read handwritten notes), Mr Baring-Gould is generally reliable. ![]() Now in the preceding number (issue # 5) I noted that Mr Kaye has elected to follow the approximate dating of Holmes’s adventures as proposed by the late scholar William S Baring-Gould.

Not annoyed, like he thought I’d done it on purpose. Except for once, last month when I followed him too closely and accidentally stepped on the heel of his left sneaker and it came off and he stumbled and turned around to look at me. Nike would offer him sponsorship if they knew, but Milo would refuse because he’s not a sellout. He’s probably the best leaner in all of Brooklyn, or at least in Park Slope, which is the neighborhood where we live.

I glanced across the room at Milo, leaning against the post that holds up the sagging ceiling in the corner.

Still, practically every seventh grader at Fiske Street Junior High hangs out at the Pizza Den after school because that’s where everyone goes. The place is so dark and musty, they should change their name to Animal Den. When you order a slice of pepperoni, there’s a very good chance you’ll get sausage instead. Their crust is way soggy and the service stinks. No one comes to the Pizza Den for the pizza. Maybe today I should just buy a slice of pizza and head home. ![]() I am going to talk to Milo Sanchez today. ![]() ![]() ![]() "LOVED IT!
