    My Mom referred to "them" as hoodlums. So..."Hoodlum and Hot-Rods" (The Way We Really Were)

    Anyway, why not list your chapters and the book will probably write itself....

    " Rust never sleeps" If I was any younger I could claim I've never read that on an album cover. I like it though.

    I just got back in town. Thanks for all the input. I'm a little confused by the whiners, but I guess they just want some attention...so here's a hug for you.

    For the "think of your own title" responses...I could easily think of my own title and did have to pitch it with a title ... "Dirty, Loud and Fast". I just genuinely like involving people in the design process. That's how I have structured every Art Department I have ever run, and it's a VERY successful way to get great ideas and have everyone feel a part of the process.

    Anyway, for those who get it, it will likely be a while until a title is decided upon, because the book isn't written yet, but I'll let you guys know as soon as it is. I just had a wild hair the other day and wanted to see what you guys would come up with...and, of course, I wasn't disappointed. Some of the title ideas may become chapters.

    Thanks!

    HAHAHA, I looked at that avatar and thought WOW, that looks like Kirk's more studly-ish brother and there it was "KIRK!"

    Great picture, sweetheart....

    After looking at Kirk's new avatar, I would name the book "Back when we were Fab."

    I think that's the title of either a DVD set or a CD set sold by Rhino Records. Of course, it may be "Loud, Fast, and Outta Control".
