       Like! Like very much — even more, because today is Emily Bronte’s birthday!

   I can’t think of one, but it should be the poster for some kind of reality TV show.

   Don’t know what to name this, but I do know that Tomb Raider Sandra Bullock really likes Hoff’s new Pirates of Penzance costume and Fabio wig.

   I’m not so sure you can call this cover terrible.

     I thought about removing the word horrible. (It’s just what we usually say when we play this game.) Do you not think it’s horrible, Paul? I think it’s ghastly.

       The artwork generally rates a C- in my book, but it’s the guy’s glowing hair, thrust-out chest and blatant crotch bulge that trips it over into the “horrible” category.

   Is my new title being deleted as inappropriate? Or is my browser messing up & I just can’t see it?

     I see it, Margo. Try clearing cache? I think the title definitely goes with the book!

    I see it now too. The “concept” reminds me of B movie posters & True Confession magazine covers of a certain era. I wanted the new title to evoke that era :)

      Loved the ideas you all have come up with. Actually laughed out loud.
      Thank you for that. It got me thinking…

      Prologue:
      After sticking her finger probe into his deactivation hole, shutting down his higher brain functions, the alien queen inserted it into her earport to download the few bits of information that his hard drive might contain. After all, that model had its uses, none of them requiring much computing power.

    Spandex, The Final Frontier

    I’ve been so busy laughing at the other suggestions and my internal musings on what that guy is thinking in his pain (he has clearly held that stomach in/chest out posture for so long his neck is paining him terribly) and where, actually, the woman’s eyes are looking…too much fun for actual thinking!

      It’s not even worth trying to come up with one. This is amazing. Bravo.

    Not a title, but does the “nebula” over the woman’s left shoulder look a bit like someone in a Mickey Mouse suit?

    I don’t know about a title, but I’m pretty sure she just asked him: “You’re planning on changing before we go to the banquet tonight, right?”

    This was right after he asked her, “Do these pants make my butt look fat?”

    Melanie Goldmund, if you live in the USA, you win a book of your choice from our stacks.
    Please contact me (Marion) with your choice and a US address. Happy reading!

    So many of these had me laughing out loud, but for some reason, “Fortunately, the Male,” just did it. I am a big Gaiman fan.
