What books should really be named

[SFG75]

Every book has a title, though sometimes the title is a poor fit for the content of that given book. Other books have a title and the writer actually addresses what the title is about. What books should be named something different? And what do you believe that title should be?

Is:
Iacocca: An Autobiography

Should be:
Henry Ford II is an @$$H*]#

is:
Standing Firm-by Dan Quayle

Should be:
Standing Firm in quicksand-By Dan Quayle

Is:
When I was kid, This was a free country-G. Gordon Liddy

Should be:
When I was a kid, this country was free of liberals-G. Gordon Libby

Is:
A Necessary Evil-Garry Wills

Should be:
See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil-Garry Wills

LOL-I believe you're right. I got to see Quayle once when I was in junior high. He spoke at the high school across town and we were bussed over there to hear him speak. They put us right behind the media-I didn't know that we were taking a science field-trip regarding cockroaches.

Really, I kinda like Quayle! He's a guy after my own heart..he opens his mouth and his foot just flies in of its own accord. Give him a written speech and he's pretty good, but make him adlib..and watch out!! Who couldn't love a verbal klutz like that?
