...Consider this exchange: "I feel tingly," one male animal says to another. "Don't say that when you are pressed up against me," it retorts. If that's the dopey sense of humor you're after this Fourth, why not just set your kid up in front of a triple bill of old episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond, The King of Queens and According to Jim? It's just as all-American and would be cheaper...
...What was he like when you worked with him on the video for "They Don't Care About Us?" Michael was great. He had a sense of humor. He worked hard.

If there is a tragedy in Down Around Midnight, it is not of the Greek kind - Sabbag's bad luck was purely random, and if there was a fatal flaw involved, it wasn't his. He circles and circles around the trauma, interviewing his fellow victims, and their...
...feel that the quality of the stories is declining. I think that some books are more successful than others to certain readers. People who read my books for the humor, they're going to love one book. People who read my books for the mystery, they might not like that book quite as much...
