The Case of the Secret Meth Lab

McSweeney's has a great Hardy Boys' manuscript rejection letter.

Excerpt: "Page 50: Colorful banter between the brothers is, of course, to be expected. Please reconsider, however, whether Joe would tell Frank to "grow a pair." Further, Joe would not dismiss Frank's suggestion to call for help with "Step off, bitch. I know what I'm doing."

As the youngest boy in my family, i had an entire bookcase filled with Hardy Boy books. I love reading everyone one of them, and I loved this little satire. "Grow a pair!" HA!
