Hooray! Got my first letterbox planted in San Francisco, and if
you're a fan of Hitchcock and Vertigo, you'll plummet head over high
heels for this one! It's the first of three planned Vertigo boxes,
each more diabolical than the one before.
Princess Lea herself was gracious enough to do some testing on my
clues, and here's what she had to say: "OOOH, THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!
You are as clever as they come. I was honored to be the guinea pig."
Many thanks to Princess Lea for her help and inspiration. We're
plotting a collaborative letterbox for the near future... That
should scare you!
So, here's the link to Vertigo Letterbox #1, a trip into the
illusions of the past, to follow an evil plot of deceit! Beware! And
watch your step!

Oh, that's too funny. You know, that would make a great addition
to 'movie themed' letterboxes--including positive quotes about what
other people had to say about finding your box. =)
The Attack of the Killer SLUGS!!!!!
Starring: Princess Lea, as herself!
"Best box of 2004!" -- LA Times
"A laugh-out-loud box! Two thumbs up!" -- Washington Post
Oh, man.... This could be a lot of fun.... =)

Umm... I just realized that this probably doesn't sound good. I
did NOT mean to imply that Princess Lea looked like a slug! Rather,
I was thinking she'd make a great hero that defeats the evil slugs!

I figure that if you want traffic to your box, then some marketing
is needed. And just like commercials, I've got a celebrity
endorsement (and unpaid)!
Of course, I could get the spirit of Alfred Hitchcock to say a few
words, but he says plenty enough in my clues. Alfred & I are already
at work on Vertigo Letterbox #2, and I'll tell you, he does get a
bit fussy and pushy at times.

Very resourceful, you are. I can tell you'll be going far in this
hobby. =) My favorite boxes tend to be the 'innovative' ones--
witty, clever, unquie--and I have a hunch you'll be hiding a lot of
them.

Humph - I guess I won't take it personally then. A slug with a danish
hairdo? Not a pretty sight.
