As Lime Goes By We hear the Third Man zither theme.
Hey, we were just kidding last month, when we allowed one title to have two tiny changes. As hordes of purists have demanded: One per entry! Speaking of entries, we were asked how the titles come in. First of all, it’s an international sport; this issue included titles from such beyond-the-Bay places as Germany and New Zealand. Rolf Augustine ’60 from nearby Santa Cruz has a habit of sending post cards containing one title each; for this issue’s consideration, he sent 27 post cards. A bit obsessed. Whereas, pushing the envelope, so to speak, in one single, three-page, both-sides-filled letter, Danny Hum ’76, O.D. ’80, crammed in 69 entries (did someone say OD?). Whatever you’re dosing on, send in your titles, of a movie, play, book, or whatever, changing one letter only (did you hear that, Cal Monthly staff?), and adding a snappy underline, to Twisted Titles, California Monthly, Berkeley 94720. The Title title is from the elusive and mysterious Kip Cady ’52. |
