Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the 5-Ws

WHO was the dastard - Moriarty again?
WHAT was the reason for kidnapping Watson, my friend?
WHEN did Moriarty strike?
WHERE could Watson be?
WHY is Moriarty always instigating dastardly deeds?

Cool theme, Sherlock holmes. Are you a Robert Downy Jr. fan? I think you are really up on those stories. Congratulations. I think I never read the Sherlock stories, only saw a few movies.
