Did Sherlock Holmes Have a Sense of Humor?

“Homes seldom laughed.” [MAZA]

Sherlock Holmes could be deadly serious. As in his encounter with Professor Moriarty, his matter-of-fact explanations, and when Watson wrote "Holmes seldom laughed" in "The Mazarin Stone."  

But was Sherlock Holmes really all that humorless? Fortunately, we have decades of Watson's chronicles from which to choose. Let's get into it. After all, it's just a Trifle.    

Thank you for reading Trifles. This post is public so feel free to share it.
