Good walking stick for the money
I bought the stick for my 86-year-old mother, and she loves it. She even traded in the trusty mop handle she had been using (and I hated). The stick has a rubber tip on the bottom which greatly reduces the risk of slipping. The handle is a nice, molded grip. The top segment can be raised and locked into place. This joint stays locked, creating a taller stick. However, the one flaw I found was the lock on the bottom segment. It will not stay locked. Any pressure and the segment slides (telescopes) back into the larger segment. Very risky for an old woman, so we don't use this lock. That aside, the stick is well made and my mother likes and uses it.

The Best of all The Best
Tracy Morgans best of SNL is one of the best. I dont know what these other cornballs are talking about. PULL THE STICK OUT!!! My favorite sketch was with him and Shaq. The one where he play Bernard(Shaq) father, and tries spanking him and yell at him even though he's like 2 feet taller than his dad. Shaq being Shaq had a hard time keeping from cracking up. I like the sketch with him and Vince Vaughn, playing the playas.."PIMPS IN THE FRONT, HO'Z IN THE BACK AND CHUMPS IN THE TRUNK!!!". Astronaut Jones, Woodrow- that was really funny, too! I like him and Jim Breuer, where they play two ex-porn stars trying to get an office job. Oh man, and the extra credits with him and Queen Latifah, when she plays his girlfriend and those all his stuff out of the apartment window. She eventually start throwing embarrassing things out- even tapes AND TAPES of his porn collection! I hope they come out with another Best of Tracy Morgan soon!!! WHEN CAN WE GET TRACY MORGAN 2???

Favorite Artist Falls Away
I couldn't help but notice the irony in Susan's new album titled "Closer". Closer to whom or what? Certainly not closer to the Lord Jesus Christ. She is getting closer to the world and its secular garbage. Look at the cover. Does her dress and pose identify her as one who desires a closer relationship with God? When I first saw it, I couldn't believe it was her. Her lyrics point people to human love which fails, instead of the love of Jesus Christ that surpasses any human love. How can anyone minister from a secular standpoint anyways? Amy Grant crossed over...how many people got saved, or were encouraged in their walk with Jesus Christ. Instead Amy Grant has pushed aside what the Bible says and has divorced and married a divorced man. What is happening to Christian music? It has become an industry rather than a ministry. It is trully a great falling away. I would not buy this!!

Mother love run amok
Loverboy creeps up on you even though you get plenty of warning that the narrator, mother of the year, is possibly a half a bubble off plumb. She's got a few hang ups. There's her problem with speaking in contractions. There's her tendency to kiss her son a little more than she ought to. She's got some serious separation issues and things start to escalate from there. You figure it just isn't gonna be one of those happily every after books. That said, it was haunting and beautifully written. As a mother with far less child lust than this poor woman, I could relate in "moments." Moments that sieze your heart and render you stupid. But uh, insanity is something else. Which is what makes the book so creepy, so enticing that I had to stay up until the wee hours to find out exactly how this would all play out. Not well, I was sure. I'll stick this one on the bookshelf next to Steve Martins' Shopgirl. Small but packs a good punch.

endless nonsense and drivel
Bored and Boring boy with no interest in anything finds a tollbooth in his room. He drives his toy car thru and finds himself in a strange new place where there are lots of puns and clever play on words. It's like Alice thru the looking glass and the Mad Hatter. Sure there are some clever bits but it is tedious having so much nonsense. The kid is not an active part of the story. He doesn't accomplish anything. He isn't clever or thoughtful. Turns out the twin princesses of Rhyme and Reason were banished (hey that makes sense). But when they are rescued there is no change in the nonsense, I believe there are more stories in this series but we won't be buying them. I wouldn't even take them if they were free. We listened to this one to the bitter end just to see if anything useful did happen. It didn't.

Abandon this movie!!!
Not only is Abandon poorly written, but boring as well.Without Katie Holmes, "Abandon" would have been like "Hardvard Man" without Sarah Michelle Gellar, a long, boring Bore-Fest!Well, anyway, "Abandon" is about a success-driven college student Katie (played by Holmes(who else?!) And Katie's Boy firend Embry(??) has been missing for two years. And the the Dective(Bratt) and he is invetigating his disappearance. So, thats about it. There are also some jumper[scenes] in the movie.When the end finally came I was so glad. Not only because the movie I wasted $$$... and about two hours of my life was over, but also because the end was a shocker! So all in all , to be frank,this movie STUNK mayjorly!!P.S. I only gave this movie a star, because I couldn't leave without one. Otherwise, I would give this stinker a big fat ZERO!ZILCH! NADA!

Alf the series ( LOVE THAT BALL OF FUR! )
I have read the reviews of others & hopefully I will not miss what they have. I loved the show Alf & taped it onto VHS, after reading the reviews I am putting my VHS'S tapes onto CD. I am still ordering all the items offered here.I remember when he was taken off the air. I was shocked! There I was VHS in the recorder & "NO ALF!"No warning if there was any warning I never knew about it. It ruined my entire night, the following week, NO ALF, again. So I am ordering anything that is available with him.You would think he been on reruns on the channels like Nick @ night. Wonder why it was just pulled like that? Back the then I couldn't wait for Alf & The Hogan's, another one pulled without warning. I'd like to get their series & the series for, 2 Guys, a girl & a pizza. Guess I must like the wrong shows! Thanks for letting me blow off my disappointment........Jeanette Storaska

It's named wind tunnel for a reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I read a few review on this fan and I have only had it for a few hours. Some people complain about the beep it makes when you change from Hi to Low. I don't know what they are complaining about. It makes a noise, but it's not irritating. Someone else said that it was loud. If it's on full blast. It's a little loud. Who cares! It rocks as far as power. Oh by the way the complains are not Necessarily on Amazon. I looked all over. With me this is the best fan I have ever owned and I do have one industrial one. This one has it beat. Plus the remote. Very sweet.

A piece of garbage
I took a chance on this vacuum after reading the mixed reviews. Big mistake. Within the first couple of weeks, it only worked when it felt like it. After 3 trips to the Electrolux warranty center (45 minutes away), *I* finally figured out that it was a connection issue where the hose meets the canister and where the powerhead attaches to the hose. Yes, both places. The warranty center told me nothing was wrong because it worked for them perfectly on cue. I contacted Electrolux and demanded that they send me to a new powerhead and hose. Then it worked well for a few months. Now the connection issues are starting again, and the retractable cord no longer works. I'm ready to throw it in the garbage. I'll never buy another Electrolux product again.

I'm a fan, but this movie was a let down
I hated the atmospehere as it opened. Reminded me of a bad attempt to used some of the stuff from a Terminator movie, or even Mad Max. There was no originality. I stuck through it and it just got worse. I enjoyed seeing Jim Byrnes as Joe, and of course Adrian Paul as Duncan and Methos...but after I waited years to see a sequel - the writing was bad for this movie. Endgame was a great movie, and so this one is dissapointing. I do like the end though. I wish they could have told us more about his wife - how they met, their life, their marriage, their troubles...seemed like it lacked character development. It's hard to vision Duncan separated from a 'wife'. I do hope they make another movie showing Duncan having a son, and make it more like the series Highlander and the movie Endgame. Then I'd go to the theatre and see it.

I depend on this bag to protect my gear
This bag is great. It is built very well as I have come to expect from lowerpro. It has a built in microfiber cloth, two movable dividers and a rain guard. I use the microfiber cloth all the time to clean my lens and LCD disply, it has recently started to show some wear though. However it is because it gets stuck in the velcro that holds the dividers on. The dividers themselves are adjustable and removable. I found this very useful when I still owned a point and shoot. The rain guard is exaclty that, a rain guard. It rests in a velcro pouch that opens on the outside of the bag on the bottom. It covers the front and top of the bag, not the bottom or back though. I have also found it useful to protect my bag from the sun. The rain guard is lighter colored than the bag so in turn, keeps it cooler. Overall an excellent bag. I won't be replacing it for a long time.

A pleasing, funny love comedy
Steel Magnolias was the first one that I saw among Sally Field's movies, and I tend to backtrack her from there. It was interesting to see totally different her in Surrender, but her fundemental characters and actings are still there. One night, I turned on TV and I saw her. Since I rarely watch TV, I could have turned off after a moment if I hadn't seen her. And I kept watching. And I kept watching even though I was tired, and despite all the long commercials. It was not because of Sally Field. It was because the story line was pretty good. Not only it was charming, funny, and pleasing, but also it made me curious of what's going to happen. I ended up watching till the end and slept at 3:00 am, enduring all the commercials. This rarely happened in my life. As a Sally Field fan, I would like to give 5 stars, but to be fair, I would give 4 stars for this movie. Any love commedy fans should like this movie.

Don't Waste Your Time
This sander is a complete waste of time. If you need to do some serious sanding, that's when you need a belt sander. This one is not even close. The sanding belt doesn't track. It runs hot after a few minutes. And finally, after about 15 minutes of trying to remove paint from plywood, the rear tire tore off! If you need something to do light work, you don't need a belt sander, but you certainly don't need this sander anytime. It won't handle balsa wood. Spend the money. If you don't have the money, buy a good random orbit sander which is less than this junk. I ended up buying the Ridgid belt sander and it was expensive but worked great (nice machine). Lastly, be careful, Craftsman offers the same sander as this B&D but it's a different color and $10 more! Don't even consider this sander.

Very Dated -The Title is misleading
I just got this book and let me tell you you are better off not buying this. This book primarly deals with arpeggios and nothing else. No legato, no real picking exercises or anything like that. All the exercises are dated, like late 80's Neo Classical dated. If you want to play like Yngwie, Vinnie Moore, or the rest of the bunch this book will put you in the right direction. 12 or 13 years ago this book would have helped me but today it surely won't. I think this book is for beginners. Any one who has played guitar for more than a couple years won't benefit from this junk. I'm suprised they still print this or at least didn't revise some of the material for more of todays players like Satriani, Vai or Eric Johnson. I'm very let down by this book.What a waste of 12 bucks! If I could return it I would.

Great electric kettle!
This is the first electric kettle I have owned and I love it! I have owned it for about a month and I mainly use it to make tea and instant grits. I wish they still sold the smaller version, but this one still takes up very little counter space. I ultimately bought this one over other smaller kettles because of all the features is offers. It definitely brings water to boil quickly. I like that you can adjust the temperature as well, from ready to sip to full boil. It was important for me to buy a cordless kettle, and this one is great. Fits well on it's base. I have had no trouble with a plastic taste in my water. For those that do, the instruction manual covers that scenario; use it 2 or 3 times until the taste goes away. Overall I am greatly satisfied with my purchase and recommend it to others.

The Beginning of His Legendary Era
Into Battle contains Churchill's most well known and often heard speeches such as: The Lights Are Going Out Over Europe; Their Finest Hour; and Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat. What better way than to read them in a first British edition printed to wartime economy standards. I know many Americans interested in Churchill will have seen or heard of "Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat" which is the edition that came out in the US in the early forties, but You Really Need To Hold The British printing (made with Britsh Blood Sweat and Tears), so that you can feel the emotion and the history. . .well, that was a bit over the top. . .but I have always maintained that the poetry and emotion of Churchill's speeches brought together the British Peoples from all the corners of that extinct Empire, and is why we are living in a relatively free world now. . . Buy the book, even just for his articulate and superior command of English; the grand majestic phrase. . .

It's just satire and not political insight
I like Michael Moore. But remember that while Roger and Me was funny, it was also 10 years too late.Same stuff in Stupid White Men. All sorts of cutting satire and quite a few good lines. However, most of this book is so passe. As with all things, timing is everything. This book would have been a lot funnier one year ago. But since the mass murder of Sept 11, Stupid White Men reads like some adolescent whining by a kid who refuses to grow up. As a result, much of Michael Moore's sharpest barbs come off as petty and shallow. Most thinking people I know have shared this opinion.I'm always amused by multi-millionares trying to pass themselves off as blue collar heroes. He markets himself well. In the end though, Michael Moore is just a guy hustling a buck for Michael Moore. Like Roger and Me, Stupid White Men has passed its expiration date for freshness.

Hmmm...
I just recently purchased this CD, and I must say it sounds really awesome. I'm not sure if it would remind me of bands like Chemlab (which I highly recommend for any industrial band), but this album is extremely good. It is very different from a lot of other industrial that I've heard. It has more guitars and the vocals aren't quite as harsh, but it's still great nonetheless. So why only four stars? I couldn't really get into every song. The first one starts out very strong and gets you hyped up. Then, it sort of goes into a short drought. "Don't pray" is a good song, and then it doesn't get really great again until "Happy pill." But overall, I like this album and recommend it for industrial, and even metal, fans. Very good album. Go out and get it.

First of all, the reviewers who gave 5 stars for this book are obviously employed by Kaplan. Just read their reviews. They are not foreign students whose second language is English. Disregard their comments.IMPORTANT INFORMATION: This book is NOT organized like the TOEFL iBT exam. I would expect a good exam guide to have separate chapters covering each section of the actual exam. Instead, everything is all mixed up together in this book. There are eight chapters in this book, each covers a different theme: science, history, education, etc. Huh!?! This book will NOT prepare you to answer the actual TOEFL questions. I think this book was written before the TOEFL iBT was first released. Therefore the authors did not have the exam structure to prepare a useful exam guide. Shame on Kaplan.The Official Guide to the TOEFL iBT by ETS is not perfect, but at least it explains the structure of the exam in detail. Until a better book is released, get the ETS book and do not get Kaplan's.

Another catchy pop song...but something's different...
This is yet another catchy pop song to arrive on the market. But there is something different here. Each of the Teen Pop Queens has something to their name. Britney has the controversy. Mandy has the voice. Christina is the diva-in-training. Hoku is the sweetheart. Mixing a little electronica, pop and her sweet voice, she comes out with piece of pure pop. But this cup of sugar also has a positive girl-power message to put up with no one, and to let no one use you. Hoku has recently released a full-length CD. If the material on it is as strong as this, we can look forward to great things from this singer.

Not so perfect
OK lets be honest here. The first time I listened to this song on Dannii's website, I thought... she's a bloody queen of recycling. I didn't like it all. The instrumental is not originally produced and the lyrics are in a total mess. It didn't blend nicely. Thank goodness for being able to download it from the net before it got released. I forcefully listened to it quite often and eventually this song grew in me. I'm glad the Perfection(Dancing DJ's Remix) version reinvented the original version of the song and gave it a more unique feel. The original version especially Bobby Blanco & Miki Moto Remix heavily used the instrumental sample that made it sound like a "cut and paste" production. I believe Dannii is creative and she can do better tracks than this. She just have to pick the right DJ collaborators. I would suggest she should try Wayne G. or Full Intention. In summary the Dancing DJ's Remix really saved this song.

Romantic Dribble & Poorly Written
I just finished this audiobook. I love action books and don't mind a little romantic interlude with the story line. This is the first James Rollins books I've listened too.It's gong to definatly be my last.First the plot is so transparent a five year old knows exactly where the author is going throughout. Second the continous ramantic 2nd class dribble is beyond endurence for the listener. Old five cent love novels have better dialog. The over the top lines and the constant need to present contrived romance is stupid. If you have half a brain buy a comic book, it'll be better written. Also the abridged audio is only 6hrs long. The unabridged version is 15hrs. BUYER BE WARE. This is not worth your time or money.

Great First Swing Set
My 5 month old daughter received this swing set as a gift. She is in the 95th percentile for height, so she is pretty tall for her age. She loves the swing and has plenty of room to grow. The swing doesn't go very high, but it is perfect for her age. The box says that it is for ages 1 year to 4 years of age. I'm not sure that a 4 year old could go in the swing. The slide is small, but a great length for the little ones. At 5 months my daughter is more interested in the swing anyway. We have a small yard and this fits just perfectly. We would have just bought an infant swing for a tree, but there are no trees in the yard. This is the next best thing. It is sturdy, and two days after we put in together we had a snow storm here in NY and there are small holes to drain the water. I think this is a great product for little ones.

Will the real author of "Sin Killer" please stand up!
If you're into Barbara Cartland romance novels then "Sin Killer" is the book for you. I've read all of the McMurtry westerns and I was confused by this one. The plot revolved around a romance between the Sin Killer and Tasmin a spoiled English wench from the buffoonish Berrybender family. The book jacket should have been illustrated with a cowboy hat wearing Fabio embracing some bonnet wearing, buxom bimbo. The characters are one dimensional and downright absurd. Whoever wrote the book jacket NEVER read this book. It stated that Lord Berrybender came to America to broaden the horizons of his children. NO, he came simply to hunt. He didn't care one wit for his children. Maybe the book jacket author wrote "Sin Killer". Will the real author of "Sin Killer" please stand up.

Careful of this one!
Like everyone else has said - the controls on this dryer suck! If your fingers are at all wet or greasy from product, it is a struggle to flip the switches. I don't know if the ionic feature did anything or not. I suppose I'll know once I compare it to the replacement I'm about to buy.I had the dryer for about a year...and now it's gone. As I was drying my hair last week I noticed sparks shooting out of the nozzle! Yikes. I cleaned out the filter and the sparks stopped. It lasted maybe 3 more uses before it just went dead. No smoke, no fires, just nothing. I expect a longer life from a simple appliance like this. Back to Target I go...

Utterly Worthless
I was recently having a discussion with a friend of mine over the definition of "music". He, being a pure traditionalist on the subject declared such things as electronica and rap as "not real music". I defended both those forms and said that those were most definitaly "music". He then asked me where my line was, and I replied "Metal Machine Music". This is not music, this is noise. Is it impressive that Lou Reed got this released? Yes. Is it a bold statement of his artistic beliefs? I guess. Is it music? No. Is it worth listening to? Certainly not! It has no melody, no rhythem, and nothing to make it worth a listen. A truly punk artistic statement, but in this case, artistic statement makes for an absolutly boring, irritating listening experience. Don't waste your money.

Magix MP3 Player
Is there a "zero star" rating? Clearly not worth the money. MP3 Maker comes with two compression algorithms. One compresses into mp3 format faster than the other. The catch is you have to pay Magix an extra $9.95usd to be able to use it. Aside from the fact that this application is a resource hog, getting assistance from Magix with any problems is less likely than winning the PowerBall lottery. After many ill-fated attempts to correct flaky problems I have found some freeware/shareware packages that work great. Magix support is non-existent. One can spend the money on a toll-call to leave a message or send an e-mail. Either way, you will never get an answered back from Magix. Bottom line, don't waste your money on this product.

Way better than silicone
I am a huge fan of Vitatops, but paying the high price for the already made muffins to my house was getting pricey. They sell the mix, but they were sold out of the silicone muffin top pans. I have full size silicone muffin pans I received as a gift that not only leave a crumbly mess as they are far from non-stick. Even worse, they also leach an odd flavor into the muffins. I don't feel that they're safe. So I decided to try this nonstick metal version, and my only regret is not buying two so I could bake the whole mix at once. This pan if really top quality. The muffins simply lift right out of the pan with no loosening required. All of the muffins come out evenly cooked. I've tried it with other muffin mixes, and everything has been perfect. This is a great pan.

Appropriately Titled
Yes, of course this is an extremely romantic CD. It's kind 3 male/female duets (Sarah B. and others); one male/male duet (Zucherro); and the rest is all Andrea. Slow, soaring, relaxing, not in a hurry kind of music. In my opinion, this was his signature depature into this new classical/pop genere. The translations are included to English (which is wonderful). The CD is entirely Italian. His voice is phenomanal. There is also a songbook that goes with this CD, by the way, for the singers and pianists out there. This CD is heavy, not light nor for the unromantic hearted. If you are new to Andrea, it may not seem romantic at first, but continue listening, as I find those of us in the states who are new to this genre may need a little bit of adapting to the music, much like learning to appreicate fine wine. AH--Romanza and wine! I'm off!

TERRIBLE!!! MOVIE NEEDS TO STAY BEHIND ENEMY LINES!
I stayed up until 12:30am on a work night to watch this lousy movie. Sure it is a patriotic them, but the story is lame and unbelievable. The characters (Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman) were WEAK! The writing and story was WEAK. The action was okay. Don't buy this movie! Don't rent it! If someone has it, then you may want to borrow it for free. It wasn't worth my money. I'm just glad I didn't waste my money watching this in the theater. If you want a believable and powerful and intense and patriotic war movie, get "Black Hawk Down".

You're Better Off Waking The Dead
"Man in the Moon" is an awesome track, and I play it over and over and over and..well you get it, and track 2, "Beautiful" is nicely done and I enjoy it lots. And then that's it. Its nice to have Phil back in the band, there is no other vocalist for L.A. Guns than him, but I'm so glad Waking The Dead is out. I got this album based on two things..It's L.A. Guns and Phil Lewis is back, but they just dont make it work like they do on Waking. The tracks on here are just boring. Absolutely boring. "Man In the Moon" I can't say enough good things about it its just one my favourite all time songs. But I'm disappointed with the rest. And I feel bad for it. I just couldnt get it in to it. If anyone out there feels the way I do, you will be happy with Waking the Dead, thier 2002 release. Stick with that and other L.A. Guns CD that have Phil on it. May i suggest the wicked Vicious Circle??

It should take me longer than 3 hours to read...
a bestseller from the NY Times list. Hallo! Good to see everyone... always wondering what everyone in Jersey is doing and how everyone is getting along, even the niece who wants to be a horse entertains me. But for real it took me 3 hours to read this book. There was no savoring. The print is huge. And honestly there are a few downers...having two men like Ranger and Joe in your life and not putting them to good use is a waste. Yes, I love that Ranger's shower gel smells heavenly. I knew that already from my dreams. And sure I know other things too from my dreams. But those are not the "real" things that happen in Stephanie's world. I still really love Evanovich. I remain an avid and adoring fan. I just want more and I want it to last longer. All women want that, don't they?

Maybe the worst album EVER
Wow. I had no idea that an album could be this bad. The songs have no meaning whatsoever, they didn't write the songs they sing thus they aren't expressing any emotions or opinions. Total bubblegum music (music that's main sales are from kids below the age of 18 or girls). I'm not sure why anyone would be looking at buying this album. It's horendous, mind-boggling. I have no words to describe how corny this "band" is. Yes, their voices sound good if you like that kind of sining, but that's not why their records sell, plenty of other artists have great voices and few of them are what the backstreet boys are, popularity wise. However, (thank god almighty) they aren't popular anymore. Instead, a band who might be even WORSE is leading the way for pop music, Nsync. Please, help me and others who can't stand these kinds of bands. Put Nirvana and Greenday and Weezer and the Smashing Pumpkins back atop the charts. Let's have another grunge explosion, PLEASE!

Great fun
If you are looking for realism in a western serial, this isn't it. Not even close. It has 1935 automobiles, a villain whose name begins with Z, a secret weapon that would change warfare, a bubbling laboratory, and a horse, Tony, that can out-lassie Lassie when it comes to seeking help and communicating. But most of all it has a great cowboy, Tom Mix, who was a fine rodeo and circus rider, doing his own stunts. He certainly could ride and was especially creative in getting on a horse. Once he even jumps out a window, and Tony is right there, situated perfectly, saddled and waiting.The story doesn't really matter, now, does it? It's Tom Mix without the Ralston ads, and that's just about enough. He was supposedly John Wayne's mentor and severest critic. He could certainly outdo The Duke when it came to horsemanship.It's crude. The story is predictable. But it's still great fun.

Thomas Harris is one of the best, but not with this book!
Thomas Harris moved us with Black Sunday. He stunned us with Red Dragon. Then he shocked us all with the Silence of the Lambs. Now that brings us to Hannibal. I have waited for this book to be written and then released. I have dreamed of what Hannibal would do. I had to think how the FBI( C. Sterling, J. Crawford) would do to put Hannibal back to where he belongs. Then I received the book, and I could not put it down for three hours. Suddenly I stopped and put the book down and said "What is Thomas Harris thinking?" I have never been disappointed with a T. Harris book before, now I wonder if he was finally tried of the Hannible concept. He had a chance to write a book that could have thrilled us for a long time and other writers could have admired for a long time. Now I am going to the other writers to find a better story because Hannible was a total waste to me and a big let down for one Thomas Harris long time fan.

AWSOME
this book is one of the best i have ever read. sure the plot is unreal. sure it isn't the best written book. but the way Adams catches your imagination with his own is amazing. i can't put the other books of this series down. plus, the style of writing is quite amazing. the story is well developed for what it is. though they do some crazy things for no reason whatsoever, except that they can make a good joke about it. this book is overall AWSOME! it couldn't be made better. i cannot express how much i like this book with typed words. i'm not good at expressing mysdelf on a computer. i hope you buy this book and have as much fun with it as i have!

I was duped by false advertising!!!!
I love Bill Maher. The first reference to this book was on a page about another Bill Maher book. That reference flat says "By Bill Maher", period!!!! Clicking on that reference gets you to the page from which I could write this "review". I notice it now says "By Bill Maher (foreword)". I was selecting items for my wish list for my family's benefit and selected everything by Bill Maher. So I didn't catch what I consider to be a MAJOR deception on the part of Amazon!! Literally all my internet shopping is done through Amazon because I consider them the very best the internet has to offer. But this baloney has to stop!!! I should not be required to read the fine print to insure I'm REALLY REALLY ordering something by Bill Maher or by somebody in whom I have zero interest. Shame, shame!

Tremendously Helpful Theological Book on Pet Grief
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this book. I bought it the week we had to put our 14 year old Vizsla to sleep. I struggled when she went with the questions "where is she?" "Will the Lord take care of her?" "What about the critics that say that animals don't have an eternal soul?"The author says he struggled with the same questions, which led to the writing of this book. In all of his research of scripture, he became convinced and comforted to know that his precious pets do have an eternal soul and will be taken care of by the Lord in heaven. I loved his research style and I thought his arguments were solid. There were several arguments that prove that indeed animals do have eternal souls. I am seeing life for both animals and humans differently now.The comfort this book brought to me was tremendously real and helpful in the midst of my grief. I am going to purchase this book for several of my friends. I wish I had read it before our sweet girl passed away.

Horrible Wok...
This wok is terrible. We literally used it twice before throwing it out. After the first use, we noticed that a tiny flake came off the bottom of the pan. I used the bamboo tools that it came with... but I figured I must have done something wrong.My wife started using the wok again about a week later when clouds of smoke poured out of it. She was just adding a little oil before the food went in! The fumes released by the pans turned out to be the non-stick coating releasing/melting/burning. You couldn't breathe! Gotta hand it to the engineers behind this one - a non-stick coating so effective it won't even stick to the wok itself!Needless to say we turned on some fans, opened the windows, and went out to eat that night. I was actually really excited to get this as a wedding present last month, but ended up very disappointed. We ended up buying a new wok from BB&B; with a mail-in rebate making the final cost [...]. Much heavier steel used, slick non-stick, works great.

Good renditions of classics w/ a couple new ones too.
I heard Tocanto live a week or so ago. They play a good mix of classic Brazilian music (choros, for instance) w/ some more modern tunes by Jobin (co-founder of the Bossa Nova sound). Paulo (lead singer) has a fantastic voice & really knows the music's history, which you hear between songs. Quite a few songs are included on this disc & it's broken up by region. That helps when searching for more of a particular sound (esp. since I don't speak Portuguese). The album was recorded live. I can't tell whether it was one concert or many, but that doesn't matter. Production is good. Banter between songs is good & the group really sounds like they're having fun (always a plus). I only give it four stars instead of five because Paulo's voice isn't as smooth on the disc as it is truly live. But if you've never heard them before you'd probably not notice. A good introduction album that will help you branch out in new directions.

Just Like Mark Twain Said...
It is a great pity they allowed her to die a natural death.The story is about 3 daughters and a mother who are reduced to visitors at their own home after the father dies, which allows the son to inherit the estate. After that, Austen pulls in this idea about Sense and Sensibility.Let's put it this way: NOTHING HAPPENS! Elinor and Marianne fall in love with two men, who end up breaking up with then off and on throughout the book until the end when one of them actually marries one of the men. And it is the most boring piece of garbage ever to be written. I'm going to burn my copy after I'm done with it, which should be soon. This book is for women. Not for a man such as myself. I do not recommend this book to anyone not trying to fall asleep fast. It goes well with My Antonia as being good fuel for a fire. Never read this, this is crap. I don't care who you are.

Where is the Story?
Granted, Philip K. Dick fans will love this book no matter what. And it's aclaimed by others, but if you are looking for a STORY.... well you are in for a disapointment. It has a resonance, a feel that is dark and impressive, but there is no story. How can this be a classic for some people? Obviously it's 'feel' is so strong, that people love to return to it over and over again. But it lacks true writer's 'craft'. It has no structure, and you will want to throw the book against the wall when you finish. I just love some of Dick's stuff, but if you looking for a story, this isn't it. Atmosphere? Yes. Story? No.

Boring, not worth the money
First of all, I really wanted to buy this game from the reviews it had been getting, but in the long run I am glad I didn't. I had read all the reviews and previews and thought this would be like "resident evil." However, after renting it, I was truly dissapointed and would not recommend this game other than a rental. This game is ultra hard, even for really experienced gamers. If you don't have at least three players, it is almost impossible. Forget about just doing single player, you just won't last. Second, it's very boring. The whole game is just cutting up zombies and weird creatures over and over again. It really gets old. The story itself seems to have good thought behind it, but please don't spend your money on this game. Give it rental, because that's all it's worth.

LOST DIRECTOR AND VERY LOST MOVIE
Lost in Translation is probably one of the worst movies ever produced. It was badly concived and terribly executed. There is nothing there but the lack of knowledge, multiple mistakes, and the non-existant talent. Why do we lie to ourselves and to others? Why is it nominated for anything? I do not know anyone who liked it and I hated it. It was so boring, wrong and predictable. Cinemas are empty when they show this film but they still show it. Well, maybe the answer is in the family. This family controlls business and there are many in the family. I wish Sophia all the best but this is not the way to enter business. I think she should try to use talent instead of connections.

BEWARE PARENTS!!!!!!
I thought getting this item for my daughter's first Birthday was going to be exciting.. In fact it's was the total opposite. It was a nightmare. My daughter got her arm stuck inside of the hole where the balls come out. Not only could we not get her arm out the suction on the toy made it impossible to get her arm to move. My poor daughter First Birthday was ruined by that toy. I do warn you parents BEWARE of this toy. I emailed and contacted the manufacture of this toy and was given a brush off. I think this item should be taken off the shelves. Very dangerous!!

silly and tired...so 90's
I really didn't like this book. I can see what he's trying to get at, but it's just a sloppy way of going around it. I bought this because I got a box of graphic novels from my brother carl...Hi Carl!. stationed in Korea. And a lot were Kabuki. he kept saying "you've got to read the first one or it won't make sense."So I bought the first one. and I've seen better art. so I can't dig the art. I've read better stories. The author seems to have read them too. so I can't really get into buying one writers stuff when I'm actually reading anothers. So Carl's like you have to read the new color ones they're way better than the black and white ones. I'd rather buy another used copy of The Lion , The Witch and The Wardrobe. Couldn't get into this. Not really about any of the things that it claims to be about. But I really think it wants to be... which makes it even sadder than the story the writer was trying to tell.

Weak link
I thought the Wheel Pump Sprayer was the best thing since . . .? Purchased one for home and have two at work. Being a 6ft.-plus guy, I also purchased telescoping wand. That presented the first problem. It breaks where plastic meets plastic. Secondly the wheels stop producing the pressure takes to make it spray. Spray Doc is very generous in sending new replacement parts at no charge ~ and with no instructions on how to install. Replacing the wheels was a nightmare.Right now my prayer generates no pressure to allow RoundUp to spray onto weeks. Major frustration!

Boy was this bad!!!!!!
This game was one of the most anticipated titles for Gamecube since it was announced in 2003. But it was delayed. And Now that it's FINALLY out, it was definetely not worth the money. The graphics are really good, and the music is really entertaining, but besides that it's terrible. The story is one of the worst I've ever seen in a video game. The voice acting is monotonous and all sounds like the actors are reading straight off the script, and just saying the words. But the biggest problem is the terrible controls. The landmaster tank is impossible to drive, and Fox can't even turn around well. This game has some okay rail flying missions, but the areas you fly in are too small to move away from things you can fly into. I loved Star Fox 64 on the N64, and hated Star Fox Adventures. There have been no good Star Fox games since 1997. If this series wants to continue, there needs to be a good game. If there isn't, no more Star Fox games will be made.

"F@#k it I've had enough, here's the truth"
The true story of Englands loudest band the Sex Pistols. Through interviews and raw concert footage the story of the Sex Pistols is told by the band members and the people who were there. I think any big Sex Pistols fan would not be disappointed by this film. Even if your not a fan I'm sure you'll like this film. To see the rise and fall of the Pistols was very cool to see. The thing that I did not like the film was that the Ramones and the Clash were not mentioned. The Ramones started the whole sound, and the clash and the pistols were like brothers. It all just seemed very odd to me. What I also didn't like with this DVD was the lack of features. You only have the trailer, director commentary and the documentary of the whole punk movement, which all that I thought was good but I just thought they should've added more interviews or more footage of shows, tv stuff, etc. If your a fan or not, this is for you.

Triple Mark-up
I bought these because the nearest Ikea is a long ways away and I don't own a car. I needed some tea lights for a party, and got these out of necessity. I will never do so again.As tea lights go, they are fine. They burn. They produce light. They last a few hours. They do everything a tea light is supposed to be.But, the price is outrageous.All these are is the same candle you get from Ikea. Seriously, the exact same candle. With Ikea printed on the bag. Someone is just driving to Ikea, buying a whole bunch of their tea lights and then re-selling them here. A clever idea, I must admit, and they got me once for it. But never again.It is worth the pain to take a day trip out to Ikea and buy three or four hundred of the exact same tea light for the same price.

Waste of Money and Time I say...
I was so dissapointed as soon as the movie started, because of the horrible acting. I've never seen the original but I've heard good things about it so why not give this one a shot right? Geeeze was I wrong. The story line is not too bad but I think there could of been a lot more changes to make it even better, more scary and more surprising. It's too easy of a movie to figure out. I barely had to follow along to know what was going on, and what was going to happen. So if you don't like to think too hard, this movie is perfect for you.The only thing I liked about this flim was Mia Farrow..now she was creepy! Great acting on her part, everyone else was just cheese! From a can if you will. Maybe bacon flavor...After I watched the movie I tuned into the special features and I watched a trailer on the original and got even MORE dissapointed to see that it was made EXACTLY like the original. You have got to be kidding me! What's the point in that? So this movie sucks...

Wonderful!
I've always been a big fan of Andy Kaufman and R.E.M. and the combination of these things are just perfect! It opens with the great classic "Man on the Moon" from the 1992 album "Automatic For The People". The second track features "The Great Beyond" which is a beautiful song. Jim Carrey joins Michael Stipe in the song "Our Friendly World". Fun! Bob James' 1978 Taxi theme "Angela" is also on this album. "The Mighty Mouse Theme" too. And of course "I Will Survive" sung by Jim Carrey (as Andy Kaufman/Tony Clifton). If you like great music, you will like this soundtrack! Go out there and buy it now!

THESE GUYS SHOULD BE JAILED FOR SELLING OUT SO BAD
Eighteen Vision's first CD, Until the Ink Runs Out, was AMAZING hardcore. It was basiclly what Atreyu wished they could be. But this? This is crap!!! However, I can't say it's TOTAL crap, I id find a few good songs....1. Obsession - Great intro to a HORRIBLE album. 4.5/53. Crushed - By far the best song on the CD. I love that guitar riff. This sounds like it could have been on Vanity. 5/55. Pit of Snakes - Yeah I agree there are too many choruses in this song, but the riffs during the verses are pretty good. 4/57. Waiting For The Heavens - Okay song, but a little too many breakdowns, though. 4/5As for the rest of the album, it sucks. Only buy it if you worship 18V and must have EVERYTHING by them. Anyone else, boycott.

Back to the Seventies!
I was watching a movie the not long ago and they mentioned Ultraman in the movie. All of sudden my mind was takin back to my childhood and i could remember asking my asking my mom to put it on the T.V. When i was like 5 or 6 years old. Can't remember exactly but i Think it was on T.B.S.. I have not thought about Ultraman for decades. I jumped on Amazon and ordered the Complete series. It took my mind back to my childhood when i first put in the dvd . Amazing experience!!!! Even though the special effects are terrible for todays standards my 5 year old step son and my 13 year old step son love it. They want to watch it all the time. What a great find for the the Family minus mom (she hates it and almost anything else that is not on the wedding channel.LOL.). You can't beat the price either. A 4 disk set with all the episodes for 10 dollars.

It broke after two years of medium use
I own a number of knives. I used this one the least because it is a bit small for my hands. I never put it in the dishwasher. It broke while I was slicing some cilantro stems. The handle broke. It's a good thing I saw it happen, because if you look at the knife it looks okay. But just look a little closer and it is broken badly by the top stainless circle closest to the blade. I felt it snap. I have just discarded it because it is no longer safe to use. The knife was expensive. I have a couple of knives that are over 100 years old, and they haven't broken. Obviously these old classics were made way before we had the kind of technology we have today. So I found this knife to be a disappointment.

Diamond is a diamond in pokemon
I love this game. It's so much better than the other pokemon games. The graphics have a cool effect in that they "pop out" at you. The poketch is cool to. It's a clock, calculator and other stuff. The legendaries are much cooler than the other games. They are VERY detailed. The touch screen has a lot of uses but only at your choice. You can play the exact same way without it. Some of the battles are a tad harder than the others and may have you starting over. My personal fav. pokemon in this game is the evolved form of bidoof. My friend has one and he named it Tim so that's just what I call it. And the other pokemon are cool too. Way cooler than the other games. For instance Bastiodon? All in all Pokemon Diamond is a must buy for pokemon fans......who have a DS

Good Bubblegum CD
Hilary doesn't have a great voice, but you don't need a great voice to have good songs, well, definetly not bubblegum-pop songs. This is a fun CD, from the bratty So Yesterday, to the hit Come Clean, to the delightful Little Voice, its all breezy listening. It has some good ballads, too, like Where Did I Go Right? and the short Inner Strength. The CD ends with a new version of the Disney hit Why Not.1. So Yesterday (4/5)2. Come Clean (4/5)3. Workin' It Out (3/5)4. Little Voice (4/5)5. Where Did I Go Right? (4/5)6. Anywhere But Here (3/5)7. The Math (3/5)8. Love Just Is (3/5)9. Sweet Sixteen (3/5)10. Party Up (3/5)11.

I have already read this book about twice now!
Mr Koontz needs to think of a new story. He has used thisbasic premise several times now and it is getting old. If he uses theword "fugue" in one more story I might never buy another book of his again. I knew what his characters were going to be doing pretty early on. Thought the whole reason why the doctor chose that family as about the stupidest reason ever. I enjoy dogs. I really do. How come though it seems in half of his books they are always the smartest? Also, why do they always have to be retrievers? Ok Mr Koontz, I get the idea, you like retrievers! What about a German Shepard, even a poodle? Maybe even another animal? I did like the Skeet character. It was about the only original thing in this story. For a really good book by Mr Koontz, see Strangers. It had many of the same elements with a better story line...END

We've Waited Much Too Long !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well what can I say that you don't already know . Soulfood is one of the best television mini series to hit the air ways since The Cosby Show . To have had a black family portrayed in such a positive manner was truly something beautiful and heart felt . I have been waiting for the second season since forever . My only prayer is that dispite what Paramount may or would like to receive in sales concerning this item that they do not make us wait any more years befor the following seasons fall in place to be released . So to all those who kept the faith and prayed as I did stay strong and keep holding on !!! How could we not give it five hell a hundred stars. So thank you again , I'll be waiting !!!!!!!!!

Cheap Plastic Release Mechanism
PROS: The blades seem to be of a nice quality stainless steel.NEG: The plastic release mechanism is super cheap and flimsy. I'm nervous about touching it for fear it will break. I sure wouldn't want this in a survival kit or have to depend on it in the woods. The rest of the plastic on the knife looks like it would crack easily. I'm sure in years past these were a good quality knife. But alas, no more..... Which is too bad, because I really like the design and size of the knife. I will be returning this to Amazon.After I received the knife I went to a local sporting goods store and saw a VICTORINOX SPARTAN and a TINKER. They didn't have the cheap plastic release mechanism like the HUNTER. The red plastic case seemed better as well. I've decided to reorder a different Victorinx knife, either a Spartan, Tinker or the Army Huntsman. I look forward to giving that knife a positive review when I receive it.

It Gave Me A Major Headache!
I am highly dissappointed in this sequel. The ships/bases are not as realistic as the first game and the firepower is not as realistic as the first game. This game didn't even come with an instruction manual! I love the instant action of the first game but the sequel is horrible. I have tried to give this game a chance but after wasting 7 hours I'm through. I literally thought I was going to get sick. Do not waste your money on this. The new technology and the addition of the Cardassian and Species 8472 is not worth it. The Maps are not even as good as the first game! The 3D view isn't worth it either, gave me a migraine. I repeat, NOT AS REALISTIC as the first game! I'm going back to the first game and I'm going to try to pawn part II off on someone else.

Decent effort
For the record I'm not really a Dry Kill Logic fan per say. I own their first two records and I've heard all of the new one. I'd have to say The Dead and Dreaming is their "crowning" effort. Now first off, nothing about this band is really original. There were already so many metal bands out there playing these same old riffs for over ten years so by the time DKL came around it was already old. However, the crushing energy and agression cannot be ignored. The mellower parts are very boring and when he sings it sounds like Linkin Park-esque vocals. Nothing special there. So anyway, if you like your metal loud and angry, but low on the technical and originality scale then Dry Kill Logic is for you. This is their heaviest album and packs a punch. Better than Limp Bizkit, Korn, Hatebreed and all that mess, but I'll still stick to my Slayer, Opeth, and Testament albums.

Obnoxious and disgraceful
I forced myself to read this book on the advice of a psychiatrist friend. The more I read, the more obnoxious I realized the entire concept to be. Maybe if she had kept to the idea that the way we perceive things is sometimes all we can control, there might have been value. But, to repeatedly say there is nothing we can do but accept what is goes against who we are as human beings. There are so many statements in this book that are just infuriating. One of the worst is on page 235 of the paperback edition. "People who know there is no hope are free." This is just outrageous and not what human life is about. Are we all to just throw our hands up and declare there is no hope? If that's a fact, why live at all? This book can be a cop out for some and a bit dangerous for others. It certainly has no value for either healthy or unhealthy human beings.

Disappointing
When Fantasia came out in 1938, it bombed. Many years later, the movie received the acclaim it deserved. Fantasia has enchanted me since I was a child, and I eagerly awaited Fantasia 2000. The possibilities! I was sure Disney would come up with something to rival the original.What I saw was a humorless, boring mish-mash with only a few bright spots. The opening segment of whales flying through space was embarrassingly bad. Silly flamingos also fell flat. Donald Duck as Noah was terrific. The Gershwin piece was ok, but not for Fantasia. And what should have been the crowning achievement, a forest nymph battling to save her beloved forest, was predictable and stale.This film was almost a complete waste of my time and money. I heartily, heartily, endorse the orginal Fantasia as a timeless classic for all ages.

I am very jealous of Nicholas Sparks
The man is building an empire -- presumably a very lucrative one -- by crafting a simple, winning formula. One that I could have crafted if only I'd thought of it before he did. The formula is so simple: write a weepy, excessively sentimental love story. That's it. That's all it takes. Who buys books? Mostly women. What do they buy? Weepy, sentimental... well, you get it.This book isn't even well written (as one reviewer has pointed out here, the first-person protagonist starts out telling his story in teenage-speak -- even though he's now a middle-aged man). But all Sparks had to do was create a character who was so smitten with the ethereal girl that he NEVER got over her -- never even considered getting married or even having a relationship of any kind with any other woman as long as he lived. Voila -- his target audience is hooked. Sparks gets richer. I get more jealous.

Cheapest quality, but still useful.
This thing belongs in the 50 cent bin in a flea market in rural china. The packaging is terrible. There's very poorly translated bare bones instructions and no adapter for charging the battery. The one redeeming quality is that the grip is pretty good and fairly secure and feels almost like a regular playstation console controller (which is much more ergonomic than holding the PSP). Too bad the 'rechargeable' part is a total lie. I hope I can get my money back. Save yours for something better. I just got this and could not have been more disappointed. If someone figures out how to charge it, can you tell me?EDIT: I found the charger input. It's not in the directions, nor is it marked, but it's there on the side. But the grip is good and if it can provide 30-60 minutes of fun once or twice when I am stuck with an uncharged PSP, I'll be happy. Still, surprised and disappointed to get something off Amazon this poorly packaged.

One of the most compelling genre debuts in quite some time
Karin Lowachee has written a marvelous debut novel. One of the most engaging and exciting debuts since _Ender's Game_, way back in the mid-80s.In _Warchild_, Lowachee has written a startingly good mil-SF yarn. I'll forgo any plot summary here. I'm sure it's available elsewhere on this page. Suffice it to say that Lowachee's novel is not only one of the best SF debuts in 2002, but it's one of the best SF novels of the year.The plot is exciting. Lowachee's aliens are fascinatingly different. The three-way conflict between space pirates, aliens, and Earth Fleet is convincing and compelling. Lowachee writes most of the novel in first-person, though the opening section is, daringly, written from a second-person perspective. This is a compulsively readable book. I was hard pressed to put it down.By the end of the novel, I was ready for more. Here's hoping there's a sequel!

Go bust yourself
This is awful. It's nothing like The REAL Ghostbusters. The theme song is just as catchy as the Inspector Gadget theme song becuase they only sing one line: "Let's go Ghostbusters Let's go! over & over again. The ghosts,monsters,aliens & the main villian look like they came from a bad 1950's/1960's horror/sci-fi flick. The Belfly bat is nothing then Scrappy-Doo in bat-form. The Main cast have little to no personality. The jokes are cheesey & phoned in a mile away. The animation is ok. The stories are goofy even for a show like this. The Gorilla is nothing more then a second-rate Scooby-Doo wannabe. This show gives me a headache just even listining to it. My advice: Get The REAL Ghostbusters dvds by DIC. I give this set a 1 out of 10.

Go with the Britax
My husband and I both have Britax car seats in our vehicles. We recommended this seat to our mothers who also like to transport our child. Since this one was highly rated for safety and cost less than the Britax seats, we figured this would make a good "grandma" car seat. We are not pleased with this car seat. The straps get twisted often. It is not as comfy looking as the Britax seats. It sits up too straight. It is extremely wide. If you're looking for the top seat for safety, comfort, and ease of use, this is not the seat to buy. Spend a little more. Go with the Britax. You won't regret it!

Utter garbage
Rapcore bands never are very good. In fact rap in genreal is very lame and too cheezy to be taken seriously, but these guys do it worse than the average joe. Butterfly was annoying when it came out, and it's still annoying to this day! this band is a disgrace to any music scene. Not quite as bad as Limp Bizkit, but still terrible enough to vomit blood for 40 days and nights. Words can describe the feeling of filthiness that comes from listening to this band. They're terrible. Don't even bother! It's not worth a single dime. I can pretty much garantee that anything that is from MTV will suck, and this, well, THIS SUX!!! Don't buy at all.

Good luck getting this game to work
I have been attempting to play this game for a couple of weeks now. It crashes and crashes and crashes. I have uninstalled it and installed it 3 times. I have all of the patches. All of the current drivers for my sound card and video card. Windows is up to date.Crytek (the maker of Crysis)is under the impression that the fault lies with absolutely everything but their game. The moon is full, I was sitting in my chair wrong, whatever.Want to post something (or even find something on their website)? Good luck. It is the most convoluted site I have ever seen. Save your money and buy a Tom Clancy game. At least those work.

Some may disagree but I think Cloe Treasures is the best Cloe there is. Her blond hair witch goes past her butt is wavy and soft,unlike some other Cloe's plain straight hair. Her is in an aqua blue and black stripped bandana. She has the most gorgeous green/blue eyes! She wears LOTS of mascara,black eyeshadow and pink lipstick that is not too dark(unlike some other bratz's lipstick.) She comes wearing blue hoop earings,blue+black shirt,black and white stripped skirt with a cool belt. On her feet Cloe wears aqua blue and black stripped stockings. And on her arm she has 3 silver bracelets. BUT SHE DOSEN'T HAVE TO STAY LIKE THAT!!!! Cloe also comes with extra earings, a black shirt,a white shirt,2 extra bracelets and shoes! She even comes with a treasure chest to put it all in! Don't forget her stylish glasses! She also comes with a colectible poster and sticker. For only $14.99 you get a great doll. I TOTALLY recommend this doll!

A FINE PIECE OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK
That's quite a feat, when that genre was pretty much dead sfter being driven into the ground by the likes of Yes and more so by ELP. two bands I really liked earlier in their careers. There were also a host of lesser known groups beating a dead horse prior to Hackett's first 3 solo records. That's why this is so good. It didn't sound like those. Nor did "Please Don't Touch" or "Voyage Of The Accolyte". The title track is one of the most beautifull pieces of electronic guitar I've ever heard. Oh, I almost forgot about GTR. I have to say that was truly a shot at making big bucks with all the hype around it. I'm glad it didn't do well. It was a complete waste of the talents of 2 of my favorite guitarists.

UNRATED?? Nope, it's cut ! Scene missing !
4 stars because this is a great movie. I watched it first in 1994 when I was 19 and now with my kids, 14 years later. Jeff Daniels, back then a rather serious actor, delivers a brilliant performance. Carrey is a mastermind as usual. There are so many improvs that are not in the script. Don't listen to others. This movie was a gem back then and still is. The Farrelly Brothers are genuisses.BUT only 4 stars because this so-called "unrated version" is missing a scene. A scene that has been removed! It's the scene where Jim Carrey asks the nice old lady wo watch his stuff while he breaks a dollar. The missing scene is when he comes out of the store and finds his stuff missing and he calls for the nice old lady. Why has this been cut out?

Omron HEM-780
My blood pressure has been slowly climing over the past 3 years. I went and saw my Doctor, and he gave me the name of a few differant blood pressure monitor manufactures. I went with the Omron HEM-780 on reviews that I read on line on all the ones that my Doctor suggested. I didn't need the 2 person monitering, because my wifes blood pressure is good. I bought it because it can be used by 2 persons and it is so easy to use. I measure my pressure in the morning and in the early evening. I take it to the Doctors office when I go so he can see the results. I would recommend this monitor to anyone needing one. It's easy to use, easy to read, and accurate! Again highly recommended!!!!!

The text format of this book is terrible!
Dumas rates five stars; the story rates five stars, but the formatting makes reading it on the Kindle a nightmare! The lines of text are fixed-length, and they are longer than the width of the Kindle page, even at the smallest character-set size. Thus each line displays as one full line, followed by a short overflow (or word-wrap) line. Ugh! I asked for, and received, my money back, and I deleted the item from my Kindle. I am VERY disappointed, as I wanted to read it in the original French, but I couldn't cope with the jerkiness that the ridiculous text formatting imposes on the reading process. (OK, I see others didn't seem to notice . . . so, I guess I'm picky. But there you are: my opinion, for what it's worth.)

Truly Romanced
This movie is my all time favorite for no other reason than Tony Scott directing a Quentin Tarantino written script. The DVD is great... if you read the fine print. I purchased, by accident and my fault, a Region 2 DVD. What does that mean? I means only Region 2 players can display it. Where's Region 2, you ask? Ah, well... that would be Europe. I live in the USA which is Region 1. So it was my bad, but still wish a more active effort was displayed by the vendor to illustrate it was not a compatible DVD. Those are the breaks! I should've read closely, or at least wonder why it was so cheap.Caveat emptor! [Latin ~ beware the buyer]I felt I truly was romanced into purchasing.

Returned Immediately
I went back and forth between the 4 star Henckel's knife and the Wusthof Classic. I went for the Henckel's due to the lower price. As soon as I opened the package, I was planning on sending it back. There is not a full tang, the handle felt like cheap plastic, the overall knife felt flimsy with no sense of balance. I have been cooking for 20 years, using mostly Chicago Cutlery which is decent but not durable. I like the weight of those knives but the edges get chewed up after a few years. I then ordered the Wusthof Classic the next day. Immediately after picking up that knife, it is clear it is in a whole different class. The knife has a full tang, riveted, solid handle. There is some weight to the knife but it is so well balanced it is not noticeable when in use. In the end, the Wusthoff cost $30 more but in my opinion, well worth the extra cost.

A homerun!!!!
Living in the city, I can testify to the noise level outside one's home. Passerby s, cars, cars with loud music and even the noisy or inconsiderate neighbor upstairs or downstairs. This machine is the best. It has two levels of white noise it can create. Within one day I was used to it. The noise is very similar to the air conditioner. I turn it on every night and sleep comfortably. I even missed it when I went to the Poconos for vacation. Hearing dead silence was weird at first. LOL. I highly recommend it especially for people who work 4 x 12's or midnights.

Insipid.
Remarkably insipid "performance." One star. Yoko's work is almost without substance. Gives art a bad name. John Lennon quite animated and humorous. Cavett: competent. Movie wears thin after about half an hour. I think Yoko's work and personality dominated Lennon. The Sailor Who Fell from Grace from the Sea. Performance art should be much more substantial and interesting, this pair of personalities more endearing. My take: he left the Beatles for this??!! I do think he was bored with performing music: all the pressures; the constant repetition of the Beatles' repertory. How many times can you sing "Yesterday"? Lennon just struck me as creatively lost to the best of his art and to himself.

Amazing
First of all, I cannot stand it when someone gives a bad review that's completely unrelated to the actual product. This product does not deserve a bad review just because something went wrong with the order.Vera Wang for men is up there with the best. I have 11 different colognes and this is the one I use the most. It has a real comfortable scent if that makes sense. I love it so much that when I run out (which will be soon lol), I will have to get a new bottle. This is one of the only colognes I actually get compliments on. This, bvlgari aqua, and salvatore farragamo are my favorites. And I have very good taste in cologne and I only use the best. And this is the up there with the best of the best. You can't go wrong with it. Trust me.

Cute but VERY cheaply made
This costume is very cute...until you take it off. It is no longer cute. In fact, by the time you get home from whatever shin-dig you attend on Halloween....this costume is no longer wearable. It falls apart. First the fluffy white fir around the sleeves & neckline start to peel off. Then the sleeves start to detach from the dress. Big disappointment. I can't even give this away or donate it or even wear it another year. I won't be purchasing costumes from this maker no longer! As for the Seller...I have no complaints. Very fast shipping, very good communication.....5 stars for the seller.

Poorly Made - Can't Be Repaired
The 7410 is my 2nd HP All-In-One. It replaced a 7100. Neither lasted more than 14 months. The 7410 did everything they said it would, but recently I tried to replace a black cartridge (which I have done without incident before) and started getting strange error messages. After 2 hours with tech support they told me it was a hardware problem. These machines can't be repaired, you have to replace them. Their accommodation was to offer to sell me a new one at about the same price as on Amazon. Big deal. My 7100 had to be replaced because the document feeder went bad. These are too fragile for any type of regular use and just won't last. If you are dead set on buying one, you should get an extended warranty which makes the machine must more expensive. I am going to try another brand.

Not the best if you wear earrings
I have had this a few weeks and like it. I hear my callers just fine. I've asked and they hear me just fine as well. No "tunnel" sound or anything. The little devise to use for hands free calling works well. If only I could teach my phone English! Anyway, my only complaint is: the way this hooks on the ear is from underneath. I'm a girl and I wear earrings so this has been a problem for me. Hoops are a particularly tricky and sometimes painful adventure. It is otherwise comfortable to wear and stays on once it's in place. I would highly recommend this to anyone who does not wear earrings.

Crisp Killer Remastering - ELP Reigns!
Finally, these superb performances get the exquisite treatment they deserved! You really can hear the difference. As you know, with some remasterings - you end up asking - where's the difference? Yet here, if you know this music - you'll hear a huge difference. The occasional muddiness of the original recording is gone! Carl's drumming is so crisp & punchy. Keith's piano is so much more articulate in this rendering - You'll hear things you never heard before.And can I just say the obvious - Thank God for great music like this. It's so rare these days. ELP knew how to do it - and they did it so right! I still think this is their best work. Not one track slacks. It kicks your butt from beginning to end!

Live "Spoonful" made my nose run.
I wish Cream could have had their material produced with today's technology. Sometimes even the studio side sounds like it was recorded "live" with no final mixing. This CD shows the individualism of Cream that probably led to their demise. Listen to the CD three times (not in one day!) and focus on each part. There are none better with each of their parts. The musical input that Felix Pappalardi can't be overlooked. Listen for his additions to the studio side. Some of the songs would be dead without it. It's hard to believe that this music is 30 years old. I don't think I want to see a reunion of Cream -- I prefer to remember them as they were.

WOW!
I love this Dana doll! I got it for my birthday last year. I washed her hair and took her hairdo out. She looks amazing! But be careful when you wash their hair. Here are some tips: 1. Never, ever, ever wash a Bratz doll's hair that has that dry gel stuff like Formal Funk Cloe or Style It Dana! Their hair gets really messy. 2. Use shampoo like Herbal Essences. It works really well. 3. Use soap to wash off their faces and bodies. Follow those tips and your Bratz doll's hair will be looking great!

Paranoid
This book is for the paranoid. This book of eighteen chapters had a one main theme. Everyone was out to get her. She was ruined because a man couldn't have her. She missed her big break because the a man wanted her. There where some other topics. They lead back to men wanting her. The final chapter was aburpt but expected.The are many redeeming quality of this book. She explained economic and racial conditions at this time of history. The book was full of vivid imagiary and indepth charchaters. The novel dicated a chapter to each person, or family. This made the reasoning for the ending clear.

disappointed
I'm a bit sad I couldn't give Inda a better rating. First, it took me forever to read. That is not normal for me and indicates that something is wrong. It is a characteristic of the main problem of the book. I simply don't care about whats going on. I think this stems for the book being written more like a history or a biography relating specific events to the reader rather than a cohesive story. I don't feel like I was going along on a journey with the character rather I was just kind of told some stuff that happened to them. Inda is a good character, which is why this is particularly disappointing. The book really seemed like it just needed a good edit and a focus. What story is it trying to tell? That being said I enjoyed many of the small section in the book. It was almost like reading a short story collection where there are some sections I love and some I could live without and really don't seem relevant.

Superb christmas album!!!
Mariah Carey's christmas album is by far the best that I have ever bought! I got it back in 1994 when it has been released. It's a classic for me ever since. A customer below wrote it and it's true. This CD belongs to a time when Mariah was at the height of her career. She was awesome way back in the early 90! I loved her music so much during that period of time. This christmas album is one of the highlights of her career. She sounds amazing on every song! I can highly recommend everyone to buy this christmas album. If you are looking for something special, get this one! You will not be dissapointed! I even bought it twice!!
