started watching House

Englishman

I just started watching House, and it's the most unique show I've ever watched. It's just so good. I figured out that House is like Sherlock Holmes but in the medical sense. (He's a diagnostician) When I went on Wikipedia.org, and typed in House, I found out that it is a homophone of Holmes, and a lot of things in the show are modeled after the Sherlock Holmes series.

Okay. Hey, do you know how I would be able to become a PF Mentor?

Englishman

Oh. Okay, I apologize.

Englishman

What do you mean by, "I want to beceome a house?"

berkeman

You have to go to medical school for that.

Englishman

Do you mean that you want to become like House, like a diagnostician, or...?

Very nice entry, G01. Well done. You might consider putting the past PF thread links that Evo and Moonbear and I linked to, into the Past Forum Threads section of your library entry. But it's up to you -- it stands well just as-is too.
