...think so. I think that these are slight mysteries. They can be read by people who read mysteries. And I know that a lot of those people do. They realize in fact that I dont observe the conventions, and also they realize we don't have in these books real crime, and we certainly don't have any bodies. Some readers, though, actually feel disappointed by that and will say these aren't real mysteries. Well, they aren't, and I never would assert that they are. Sometimes I'll go to these mystery conventions, and the real mystery writers...

He should know he cannot escape his roiled physical and psychological destiny; there ain't no sanity claws. Soon he's drawn back into the orbit of Stryker, whose plan is to pour adamantium into Logan's system, giving our boy the power to fight and destroy his murderous bro. "We're going to make you indestructible," Stryker says in one of his many...
...minor setbacks (Russia's first-man-in-space triumph) that marked his first 100 days. And while Nixon's presidency started off smoothly, he rejected the 100-days judgment, telling the New York Times in 1969 that he preferred to be judged over the long term. Guess we know how well that turned...
