What I Read in the Afternoon: A Study In Scarlet

What I read in this sunny noon? Sherlock Holmes. Yes, again. This one is A Study in Scarlet, where Holmes first appeared in Sir Conan Doyle's. You can read it here. "You see," he explained, "I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has a difficulty in laying his hands upon it. Now the skilful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic. He will have nothing but the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large assortment, and all in the most perfect order. It is a mistake to think that that little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge...

Then I start searching for the famous Bach's Partita music score (not for practice, just search it and want to see how does it looks like). And it looks like this. But that's not what I want to show you. I found a nice blog in Portuguese language and read a nice post about The Stereotype of Each Musician. It's fun, at least for me... Try read this and find which musician are you. Enjoy :) Maestro - skinny guy, austere size. He dresses very well, love to use more comfortable clothes, but the image does not. Glasses is required. Bald (or almost). A normally boring guy, the one who is only invited to "choppinho of after the concert" by obligation. Look everyone up, but would love to be popular. His jokes are not funny at all, but everyone laughs. In short, is the ...
