I have been tidying up books and stuff recently and, as you do, started reading some of them. One thing led to another and I found myself thinking about how some of the titles of books, short stories, even some poems, were interesting or amusing in and of themselves. So I thought I'd post a few and see of anyone else enjoys them, too.

Top of my list:
Flow My Tears, the Policemen Said, and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. Both, of course, by Philip K Dick.
