Letter from the Editor - June 2009

Letter Never Sent

It's time once again to take a look inside of the CITC mailbag. These are real letters written by real people about real issues. Keeping this in mind, I tried as hard as I could to keep it as real as possible. If you've got something to say, a question you need answered, or help with your homework, drop us a line: alex670@earthlink.net

Dear Editor,
I loved Thomas Cooney's review of the Pet Shop Boys' Yes album. And I agree with him that, "Yes is not only a great album, it may very well be the finest work ever done by the finest pop band the music world has ever known." I played it all night in my underwear while making vegetable soup. Will you pass this on to Mr. Cooney?
Randall Burton
San Francisco, CA

I'll tell him you loved the review—I'll skip the part about the underwear and the soup.

Dear Editor,
Do you pay your writers a lot of money?
Nathan Bingham
Vancouver, British Columbia

Yes—that is, if by "a lot of money" you mean free pizza and hugs.

Dear Editor,
I found you on Twitter under CITC Editor. Is that really you?

It's really me. And on that note, I've been following Ernest Borgnine, Kevin Spacey, Jimmy Fallon and Rorshack from The Watchmen. Answer key: Not him, him, him, not him.

Dear Editor,
How do you feel about the new Brooke Hogan single?
Tracy Elliot
Portland, Oregon

The same way I felt about the old one: Terrified.

Dear Editor,
Don't you think you should have a stage name like Sasha Fierce?
Mia Handel
Berlin, Germany

I do have one: Shlomo Nervous

Dear Editor,
Who's better, the Shins or Fleet Foxes?
Steve Phillips
Seattle, Washington

The Felice Brothers

Dear Editor,
I understand CITC Designer/Writer Lyn Dunagan is quite an athlete. Think she'd race me?
Tim Guster
New York, New York

I'll ask her—can you tell me what days/times work best for you to lose?

Dear Editor,
I've heard you making fun of the Britney Spears Circus tour. Why? It's got dancers, acrobats and jugglers.
Jenna Hall
San Francisco, CA

But it doesn't have mimes. What has she got against mimes?

Keep them coming, Dear Readers. We love to hear from you. So much so, in fact, that we always write back.

Love and Rockets,
Alex Green
