Holmes & Watson: On Your Case

It’s Friday, which means it’s time for the one and only advice column from Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. Here at Tor.com, we’re not entirely sure why a time-jumping 221B Baker Street materializes out in front of our offices every week, but we submit your questions to its inhabitants all the same!

This week they’re helping out with missing dressing, science fiction fans, and fourth of July kisses.

Sometimes life can seem like one great mystery that needs solving. Should you shave your beard? Will you find that perfect apartment? Who is your real father? Which superhero movie should you spend money to go see?

For these and other burning questions, Holmes and Watson are on your case. Though we don’t understand this phenomenon, once a week, a Victorian Era 221B Baker Street materializes outside of the Flatiron Building here in New York City. The Tor.com staff is able to enter for a brief time and give the famed detecting duo your questions. This week they’re weighing in on coffee shop selections, cats, and online dating.

In perplexing matters of the heart, conundrums involving social occasions, shopping tips, or any number of mysteries one might face in their daily lives, there is one place to turn for help: Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson!

This week they’re helping out with questions about footwear, giving advice on how to get along with roommates, and advising on Father’s Day gifts. The latter of which turns out to be a bit of a mistake.

Though we don’t understand this phenomenon, once a week 221B Baker Street materializes outside of the Flatiron building here in New York City. The Tor.com staff is able to enter for a brief time and give this detecting duo your questions.

This week, here’s what they had to say this week about bicycle lessons, marriage woes and managing one’s classroom.

Holmes & Watson On Your Case

In perplexing matters of the heart, conundrums involving social occasions, shopping tips, or any number of mysteries one might face in their daily lives, there is one place to turn for help: Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson!

Through a crack in space/time 221B Baker Street sporadically appears outside of the Tor.com offices here in New York City, during which time we drop in on this detecting duo and submit your questions to them. Last week, they helped the Tor.com staff with some of our problems.

This week, they are back to answer YOUR questions, pulled from last week’s letters, about insects, dining out, and what to do about secret admirers!

Just around the corner from the Tor offices, a Victorian Era flat with the address 221B Baker Street has miraculously materialized. The crack in space/time through which this miracle has occurred is a little unstable, so we were only able to enter for about a half an hour and speak to its inhabitants; Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. It turns out that in addition to solving a variety of mysteries, these two have now launched an interdimensional advice column! Immediately, the Tor.com staff jumped at the chance to get some advice on dating, pet care, shopping tips, and more from these esteemed intellects. Read more below to see what we asked them and submit your own questions to Holmes and Watson.
