teleadm I don't own that album, Tele, but I do have quite a few soundtracks written for Hitchcock films. Here's one I'm currently listening to, in honour of Hitch's birthday.

Happy birthday Alma, the woman behind the man behind the camera. As I learned watching Hitchcock (2012), she made some vital contributions.

I read some of those books when I was a young lad.

Those Three Investigators books were great! I still have one or two of them. I admit I preferred the Hardy Boys but they were still a lot of fun.

Back in the Dark Ages when I was teaching mystery literature courses -- and conducting theatrical mystery shows -- Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine published one of my short stories (the Ellery Queen one did two of them).
Both magazines also rejected a few as well.

Back then -- like Waldo Lydecker -- I was still using a goose quill pen dipped in venom.
