I feel that it is best to write more on this matter, it may not be a taboo topic however usually individuals are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next.

I was really excited that New Mexico was likely to get some real nation-wide attention, but outside of informing some people that it exists, I never got the feeling that much of 'real New Mexico' made it on screen. <br /><br />It could be taking place in any Bumdiddle, Nowhere, with the state name plastered on since it was filmed here. And with all the great little towns in the Land of Enchantment, why make one up?Amber Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05238390898288610023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388443433376347566.post-65127168710609597092011-11-13T00:13:30.686-05:002011-11-13T00:13:30.686-05:00And as a consequence, SleuthSayers mentioned you t...And as a consequence, <a href="http://www.sleuthsayers.org/2011/11/twin-peaks.html" rel="nofollow">SleuthSayers mentioned you</a> today!Velmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922496600366632604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388443433376347566.post-78753019163933801682011-07-18T11:46:33.112-04:002011-07-18T11:46:33.112-04:00A couple clarifications--I know that the Palin stu...A couple clarifications--I know that the Palin stuff is fairly obvious, but the fact that the media are still basically playing along is quite strange. <br /><br />Also, I know that Gingrich is in much worse shape than McCain in 2007. But eventually people are going to start realizing that Cain and Bachmann are crazy and I think those voters are more likely to go to Gingrich than Romney or T-Paw.rsantoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04166631301795959401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388443433376347566.post-91741174111582097032010-07-31T19:40:52.211-04:002010-07-31T19:40:52.211-04:00Glad you reviewed this one - thanks!

Certainly Stan's ambition is grand enough to fill out a few songs, and you could play up the romance in certain parts of the book.rsantoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04166631301795959401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2388443433376347566.post-59030766437827643252010-05-20T18:01:43.703-04:002010-05-20T18:01:43.703-04:00Oh, what a great and thoughtful review!

I wonder if his battle with the illness influenced his writing in any way? It seems like Gresham's battle could very well be his own Nightmare Alley, though I assume I am drawing too many conclusions on too little evidence here. So glad you enjoyed this one and I hope you participate in the next series as well!Aartihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02354873119188597611noreply@blogger.com
