Life Nancy Drew’s Guide to Life
posted by May 8 at 15:37 PM
onSome Hollywood swag arrived in our office today—promo materials for the upcoming Nancy Drew movie.
Nancy’s been a longtime freelancer for The Stranger’s In Other News column, so we’re all thrilled for her here at the paper.
Just in the first few pages of Nancy Drew’s Guide to Life, which came with the swag, there’s some great advice:
“When bound and gagged, you can still tap out HELP in Morse code to attract attention.” —The Clue of the Tapping Heels
“Don’t let strangers lock up your house after you.” —The Witch Tree Symbol
“Loophole in moral code: It’s okay to steal car if it belongs to your kidnappers.”—The Whispering Statue
and some dating advice:
“If a guy keeps driving you around on his motorcycle so you can run pointless errands, he probably likes you.” —The Message in the Hollow Oak
“A young lady with some judo skills can take care of unwanted advances in short order.”—The Whispering Statue

What if he's driving me around on a scooter, does that work?
It's being directed by the same director as the movie "Dick", which I absolutely loved. Looking forward to it.
This advice ranks up with this advice from Mary Weiss of the Shangri-Las

Man, all I can imagine when I hear "Nancy Drew" is Kristen Bell! Damn you Veronica Mars!
Not bad advice, even if most people don't know Morse Code any more.

Nancy Drew was my dream woman. I read dozens of those things. Much sexier than the Happy Hollisters.

Go ahead with the morse code, Nancy, but you are probably better off texting a message.
"Dick" really is definitive film on Watergate. Easily better and more comprehensive than even "All the President's Men".
@10,
Agreed.
