Don't you hate it?

I had a great, inspired post to put up, and now I can't remember what it was about. I had it in my College Writing class, and we were talking about an article we read on "rewilding", or conservation efforts. I still have that great "warm and fuzzy" feeling about whatever it was I was going to write about. My mind however, is now a blank slate. Guess I'll move on to whatever comes to mind.

I was sent a link to an article about Sherlock Holmes (one of my fandoms) and it stated that Mr. Spock, and Commander Data (both of Star Trek fame, my biggest fandom) are off-shoots of Holmes. I find this to be hilarious because Data becomes obsesssed with Holmes during the run of Star Trek: the Next Generation. Now I'm trying to find the psychological implications surrounding Data being obsessed, and impersonating part of the inspiration for his character. Spock was of course the other big inspiration for the Data character. However this gives me a great excuse to include this:

Wow, that's tiny, sorry about that. This was created by my dad when he was bored at work one day. The Spocks (left) are Leonard Nimoy (front), and Zachary Quinto (back). The Holmes' (right) are Jeremy Brett (lower), and Basil Rathbone (upper). I think that's Rathbone, there are several actors who portrayed Holmes in black and white, so they all look kind of similar in profile, however, that picture doesn't match the ones I have of Rathbone.
