Breaking Dawn By Stephenie Meyer; out now After three volumes of slow-motion foreplay, the last novel in the mega-best-selling Twilight series finally tells us everything we always wanted to know about sex (and marriage) with vampires but were terrified to ask. It's a wild but satisfying finish to the ballad of Bella and Edward...
...stand-alone story; indeed, the film feels like a middling two-parter from the old show. But surviving fans will want to know that Mulder and Scully - those platonic pals whose personal and professional relationship was an essay in heroic withholding, up there with the half-century foreplay of Fermina and Florentino in Love in the Time of Cholera - are shown [spoiler alert!] in bed together.

His site blasts the ultracool remix of Elvis' A Little Less Conversation, which told me so much. Namely, that Romney, like me, is not a man who enjoys foreplay. And he spent some real time on the "interests" section. I know the bands he likes (all cool except the Kingston Trio), his favorite books (Thomas Friedman! Huck Finn! No mention of Battleship Earth!). One of the groups he's involved in is National Campaign for Turn Signal Enforcement. I totally...
