Gay Marriage in America
|
Almost Paradise explores the gay subculture in America from the perspective of two men who want to make their relationship legal in the eyes of the law. The topic is treated with a certain amount of humor, indicative of the handling of the situation by most gay Americans. Underneath the mirthful veneer is an example of what life can be like for gays if they band together, as well as what this country would be like for heterosexuals were all the gays to leave.

Second String Right Wing
|
When O'Reilly first came on the air I respected him because he seemed to be independent. But as time goes on, it becomes clearer and clearer that he's just another conservative commentator. For my money, Limbaugh and Ann Coulter have much better facts and much better arguments. O'Reilly's newest book is just a bunch of preachy opinions with no justification, no evidence, no references. If he wants to play on the right wing team he's going to have to do much better than this if he wants to play on the first string.

fun, but annoying
|
This game is very fun, but after awhile it can get annoying. If you have trouble speaking or a loud voice this game might not be for you. In the game you use the mic alot.Over all the game is great. I just get angry my dogs when the don't listen at contests. Need patience.

Just when you thought the fun was over....

Sakura and her friends are back in the first book of the follow-up series to Cardcaptor Sakura. Sakura has passed the trial by Yue the Judge and rightfully become Master of the Clow Cards. But when a new force shows itself, Sakura's magic isn't strong enough to defeat it. Can she somehow find a strength in herself to overcome?I was so happy to find this book and to revisit my favorite Cardcaptor characters once again. Full of the same wonderful story, art, and characters as the first series, this book is sure to please any manga-lover. Find out what happens next!

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
|
This review is by a 42-year-old well-educated woman, married to the same man for almost 16 years. Three kids and a dog. Why did I buy the book? Because my husband and I don't know everything.Kim and Mark act as though they discovered sex.The book tells us explicitly what Kim likes Mark to do to her, and how long it takes.Amazing that a publisher would invest in this. (I am certain that it was only because of Kim's fame.)How embarrassing for Kim and her husband! (And their families!)My advice if you want to learn how to have GREAT sex: (1) read the kama sutra and/or romance novels (Really! Millions of women love these books for a reason. I recommend the authors Jane Feather and J.D. Robb (the Eve and Roark series: HOT, HOT, HOT!) for starters -- just read the sex parts if you don't like the rest of the book; and the Red Sage Publishing series) and (2) practice with your spouse. A lot.

Classic Looney Tunes Style
|
Back in action does a great job of keeping the true Looney Tunes style in a new movie, The characters are drawn in the original style, not the 60's animated style. While some people may not notice little things like the stray strands of fur on Bugs and Daffy it makes a big difference to me because the characters just don't seem the same. There are so many little things in this movie that after watching multiple times you will still find new things that you didn't see before. Brendan Frasier and Jenna Elfman do a good job working with the Tunes the movie feels natural unlike a lot of live action movies. If you're looking for recent Looney Tunes with classic style this is an excellent choice.

Great floss, unsure about getting 6 units
|
Best floss I've ever used, but not the cheapest. I think better than Glide and various other flosses. Like other reviewers, I can't find the large size so I ordered it from Amazon around August 2005 but only got a *single* unit and not the *six* that was advertised. I didn't look at the reviews from at least as far back as January 2004 that said other customers also had this problem :-(. Amazon eventually fixed it, but there was the hassle factor involved. I am trying it again after reading a recent review that Amazon has fixed this problem.

Not exactly durable, does the job.
|
I bought two of these cases a few years ago and since then they've begun to fall apart. The backing on one case came off and on the other, the front end is gone. As for being enclosures, they work and I can transfer my data, but they aren't very good looking. Being encased in metal with no fan is also bad, as there's no on/off switch like some of my other enclosures.All in all, if you're looking for a quick, dirty, and cheap solution, go ahead, but if you want something to match an aesthetic or be long lasting, I'd steer clear and invest in something a little better constructed.

No Spirit
|
I bought this as a gift, but was able to listen to it afterward. If you're not a Burning Spear fan (like me), I wouldn't start. The songs all sound alike, and there was no real musical spirit. As for reggae, I recommend Toots and the Maytals over Burning Spear any day.

another boring book about the church, heaven and hell
|
every time i read the latest anne rice book, i keep hoping to have in my hands another interview, or mummy, or witching hour. but i'm always disappointed. especially when the book degrades into another attempt by the author to convince us of the existence of heaven and hell, devils and angels. and the ever prevalent catholic church.when will she learn that having her characters debate with angels or devils isn't a brilliant plot twist or a deep view into their souls which makes us look into our own. but instead is a boring discourse better left unwritten.the sensuality is gone from her books and has been replaced with the catholic church. don't even bother reading it.

Delightful autobiography by a great comedian
|
As an exact tracing of the life and times of Julius Henry Marx, this isn't much of a book. As a series of anecdotes detailing a life in show business during the first half of the 20th century, it's a masterpiece. There was a time in American history when being an actor was still a low-class and suspect profession, paid poorly and with no prestige. Still, it got girls. Marx's trademark irreverence and irascibility are more than present on every page of this book, and reading it all the way through without laughing out loud will be a challenge. Its only real flaw is that towards the end, as it wanders into the fifties, it reenters a world we know of, and seems to almost degenerate into celebrity gossip. Nonetheless, the earlier parts remain a genuine delight

Just died 5 months out of warranty
|
Drives fail. I know that. Was using this along with a 500GB Maxtor in a 1TB RAID0 array, with a nice cool fan, I might add. It is amazing to me that we accept such short warranty periods for modern hard drives. Their "Customer Loyalty Program" Will offer to sell me a new drive for $97. You must be joking! I'm going to buy a Seagate with a 5 year warranty and upgrade to a RAID5 array so that next time a drive fails I have redundancy.

RIGHT- LEFT- WRONG!
|
I have had this juicer for about 6 months. I cannot imagine why there are ANY good reviews of this piece of junk! I live in CA, I have citrus trees and I've owned at least 4 juicers over the years. You plop an orange on this thing and it spins one direction, then immediately changes direction, then changes direction again!. And I mean IMMEDIATELY. The thingy spins about 2 mm's then reverses, so it leaves the orange well vibrated and not juiced. No matter how delicate I am with it, it reverses constantly and siezes up. Forget pushing on it.. I can't even hold the orange on it and it does this. I'm going to toss it. It's too agravating. SAVE YOUR MONEY!

Say "NO" to airborne shop saw dust!
|
Before attending a New Year's Eve party, I was planing about a dozen boards in my garage for a TV cabinet. Even with the dust chute on my planer, there was saw dust everywhere and my lungs felt it. My buddy told me about this unit and I bought it the next day. Great product. Easy to hang from the ceiling and even easier to use. The low speed of 3 settings is plenty for my 2 1/2 car garage wood shop. The unit has a handy remote and has 4 timer settings. After I have finished, I set the timer to 30 minutes, let it run and close up shop. A must have and affordable item for many good reasons.

Leaks in Mysterious Ways
|
I got this model as a gift and it worked OK for a while, with moderate use, though the flavor of the coffee was never anything special. At the end of about 4 months, however, I started noticing coffee on the counter under the unit. After another month or so the problem got worse and I noticed that large amounts of coffee, as much as half a cup, were leaking onto the counter -- and into the base of the unit! If you tipped the unit to the side coffee just flowed out the bottom. This has got to be some kind of shock hazard. The leak occurs around the arm that swings away when you place the carafe on the hot plate and I've not been able to find anyway to place the carafe on the hot plate to reliably prevent this from happening. AVOID.

Guacarrock Genius
|
Astounding 'historical' mayhem from some of the most talented musician writers that may pass this way in a long time. Seldom have I gone through so many emotions in an album and enjoyed myself so much. It's funny, in it's own crazy way, it's a bit... educational? The constant fearless dive between genres, and musical and cultural worlds make this album a rare gem. Oh yeah, and like a weird kind of Woody Allen film after all of this is done you will find moments to even feel passion. Mexican rock at it's finest and a gift forever. Oh yeah, it is indeed in Spanish, and if you don't know that it would be worth learning just to get these words.I need to refer to a comment regarding someone selling a copy of this on CD for $49. You may not believe it but I actually have seen someone asking $699 for a copy somewhere. Crazy or not, these possibly absurd figures accurately represent the passion that listeners have learned to feel from exposure to this work.Nuff said!

Worse than bad
|
This book was dreadful. Like another reviewer, I kept waitingfor it to get better, for plotlines to develop, for dark andshocking revelations. In vain. I suppose I can believe thisgot published, but with all that acclaim and media attention?I'm missing something. For starters, I never got acclimatedto the setting, which is supposed to be a contemporaryBenningtonesque campus with drugs and academic pretentiousness;but stylistically it had more of an Edwardian, BridesheadRevisited feel, and the two just didn't jibe for me. Plus,ALMOST NOTHING HAPPENED. They just drank alot, got reallydrunk alot, called each other alot, and acted mysterious.Nothing really happened until around page 250 of this egregiouslylong book. Bad and brief is one thing, but bad with Tolstoyanambitions is quite another. Save yourself time and money, don'tread this book. You'll thank me later.

All That U2 Can't Leave Behind
|
This is just a mindless album. It is a desperate attempt to try to parody earlier recordings. However, after two tracks it starts to blend into one of the worst U2 songs ever - Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own - that just does not seem to be going anywhere. Periodically there are shameless attempts at pop commercial singles. I have never been more let down from a band then I was by the so-called "U2" on this one.How could one explain how shallow and meaningless their music became after All That You Can't Leave Behind ? They gave up on art and opted for being ROCK ICONS, a damnable pity if there ever was one.If I were 80s Bono I would be embarrassed to even be associated with the ( now commercialized ) name U2, who unfairly subjected us to this torture they call a "U2" record....takes a second to say goodbye say goodbye oh oh oh

Okay, I know Bandler and Grinder are the originators of NLP, but they can't write readable copy to save their lives. Unless you are a true NLP geek, don't waste your money on this unless you want to spend your time scratching your head saying "Is there something I'm missing here?" There are NLP books that are practical and helpful and can even be used by therapists. This is not one of them. I'm sure in person their classes are excellent and I am grateful for their contribution, but not for this book.

Find a way to listen to this book
|
Orson Scott Card says his books are meant to be heard more than read, and the cast of narrators for Ender's Game is phenomenal.This book has been billed as YA and it does ok in that genre, but I find I get something more out of the book (the series, really), every time I listen. And Since I first "read" (listened to) this book in 2006, I get the urge to listen to it pretty much once or twice a year, despite the way my "to-read" list keeps growing.Ender's Game is full of emotion, politics, children you tend to forget are so young, and the war of several lifetimes. And yet, that somehow doesn't begin to describe its depth and complexity. Just pick it up; you won't regret it.

A real "Made in America" flag
|
I was somewhat skeptical about getting a quality flag at this price, but after reading other reviews, I took the plunge. So glad I did.This flag is superior to any other flag I have found in this price range and I would compare it to the flags that sell for $25-$35 anytime. It has real embroidered stars and sewn strips. I live in North Dakota and we get winds upwards of 60mph+ with a good thunderstorm. The flag has held up to my expectations and I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a great deal on a quality product.This just proves you can't go wrong with "Made in America".

An outstanding complex plot, which leaves you guessing until the last page. This is part of an outstanding trilogy. The characters, Claire and Tony are fully developed, well rounded flawed characters. I love them. If you love a good crime, mystery, thriller, romance. Then series is for you. There is no simple plot here. This book played out like a movie in my head. And I applaud Ms. Miller on this great read.

When its 50c outside this is what you need......
|
Summer in Qatar brings days with temps on many days 50c+ and going outside is a 'non starter'. So that I can continue working out I order in a supply of workout dvds and this time, despite not knowing anything about her, I ordered a couple of Chris Freytag's....and I'm so glad I did. The Fight Cellulite Fast dvd is challenging, it gets the heart rate up and even if cellulite isn't your issue it still provides a thorough cardio workout. After a 40 min cardio section there's a 15 min (approx) weights section that can be done directly after the cardio or done separately if you're short of time. Also bought Chris Freytag's 'Walking Cardio ShapeUp' which is lots of fun. Its like doing a workout with a friend.Did anyone else notice that the music used for the cardio section is the same music Leslie Sansone uses in a couple of her dvds?

Kind of fun, but ultimately disappointing
|
I expected a lot more from this book than I got. I myself have seen much weirder lawns than are included in this book. It sometimes appears to be more of a comment on class-driven levels of taste than on personal weirdness and eccentricity, and I didn't like that. Interesting to browse, but not worth the price, in my opinion. For this type of book, "Weird Rooms" is much better.

'...I start my day thinking about what I've thrown away...'

There are so many good lines on this CD. I love to listen to it for the lyrics alone. There is also a lot of good guitar and drums on this album, although it is definitely not as hard as their other stuff. I don't think there is a bad song on this record, although 'Further Down the River' seems a little cliche. Like 'Make Yourself' I have listened to this one over and over and have not gotten tired of it.

Ultimate Price tag

Sure, Its a great thing to pause live tv, but it sure isn't worth what I paid for my new receiver. I've been a directv subscrber for about 2 years and love it,. I bought the receiver,..the setup went smoothly, but I had to call twice also. I spent a good part of the day playing around with it, and found that I couldn't schedule recordings of baseball cames that I get on the Extra Innings package until they appear on the program guide. (2hrs before broadcast) This is very frustrating because that is the main reason why I purchased the thing in the first place. I am going to return it, cause I cant see paying..[this much] a month for it. I will wait until more features become available, and the price comes down. It would be nice to see a Hughes reciever equiped with Ultimate TV, I prefer the onscreen menu's that Hughes brands have over the sluggish RCA, Maybe I'll check out TIVO and see if they're any better

pretty good
|
Let me start by saying that I have used cheap screens for years and really didn't know what I was missing. The screen is about 13 inches across so probably only suitable to use with a 11-12" skillet or pot. The screen has a very fine mesh which stops grease pops when frying, that I really like. It is also very good with sauce splattering. I like the fact that it has bars across the screen to reinforce the mesh. That said though it does leave additional areas for the grease to build up. As for the feet, I guess there is some value but even if you turn the screen upside down it is still going to leak through onto your counter top. The screen being a very thin wire does crease easily. This does not take away from its function but I think a little thicker wire would have been better. All-in-all a very good product that could be a little better but very well worth the money.

My Review

You really have to be interested in the food, culture, and design. When I saw this book at the Air & Space museum in Washington D.C. I thought there was more info about the interior designs of aircraft. However, it was mostly about the food and clothing style throughout the years. I would only reccomed this book to a person who is intersted in these topics.

This is an album which was obviously written by Travis Meeks under pressure from his major label executives to create songs that will rebound days of the new into full-on modern rock glory once again. If you were looking for a truly artistic album by extraordinarily creative person, buy the green album. if you ever want Days of the New to release another green album, buy TWO of the red album.i wont force you to listen to it.i really loved the green album, guys.

Harry himself is a bit of a duffer....
|
...I beleive that, perhaps, he is meant to do stupid things sometimes so that you feel superior (not unlike Dr. Watson from Doyle's famed stories). The books are excellently written, however. Some of the most delightful characters are Hagrid, Hermione, the Weasley twins, Prof. McGonagall, Prof. Dumbledore, Prof. Flitwick, and above all Prof. Snape. They are obviously all exaggerated versions of people that Rowling once knew. No one could make up someone like Snape.

Boyd's junk
|
First of all I'm generally up for new Big Band sounds...and everything I've ever read about Boyd Raeburn always had things like "forward thinking" and " advanced playing" so I feel I was somewhat aware of what I would be hearing, but holy cow!!! This is bad,really really bad! It's to the point where you can't even sit and listen to it..it's impossible! There's 22 tracks in all, and "Memphis in June" is about the only thing that saves this disc. The other tracks have nothing musical to speak of. My guess would be the only reason Ginnie Powell even sang with this outfit was becasue she was married to the leader. I'm sorry to say I enjoyed Johnny Bothwell CD, because he was the big star of this organization but the two never meet..I mean in the sense of the styles, Johnny played a lot like Hodges and was a little more relaxed and not so over the top like Raeburns' group. God lov'em for trying to be different, but at least make music!!

This machine is just WRONG. KAPUT. NO FUNCIONA.
|
I have had the machine for over a year. I think you need to take a college graduate course to understand the manual. I have read and reread it many times. We finally accomplished recording to the DVD. Forget about any onscreen help. That doesn't exist. I am usually pretty technical having a experience as an electronics technician and as a computer LAN administrator. This machine is just plain frustrating. I tried to figure out the VCR section and preprogram a channel for recording a later time. Yeah...I have to take another college course for that too. My parents were looking to buy a DVD/VCR combo. I will steer them away from a Magnavox as far I can. Please do yourself a favor and spend a little extra money on something else. However, if you want to torture yourself then you can buy this and give yourself a migraine. Anything has to be better than this machine.

Mr.Dunne, with his acess to the trial participants,plus his personal experiance as a crime victim could have written THE book on the Simpson Murders.Instead,we got a book which was as shallow as Gus Bailey's Hollywood cronies. I suspect that Dominic Dunne was so disgusted , rightly so, in the outcome of the trial that his heart wasn't in this book.Perhaps because he had publicly said during the trial that he was going to write this book he felt obligated to do so.I for one,wish he hadn't.

This toy is not that good
|
This toy was not that good at all. The light saber comes out of anakin's arm, so you can't bend it. The light saber is also too short, compared to others. Overall, I was really really disappointed when I got this figure.

A Dispiriting Novel
|
If you are accustomed to reading popular legal thrillers, this book will give you little satisfaction. There are no surprising plot twists, no courtroom tricks, and no triumph of justice. It is simply the story of a shameful little trial in a shameful little town that sends Charlie Redtail to death row because he has the wrong skin color.Garry Spence writes well and seems very familiar with small town life. For example, I enjoyed reading the scenes concerning the makeshift coroner's office. He also gives us memorable, well-rounded characters such as Abner, Charlie's lawyer, who is a very good person but not a very good lawyer and Mary, Charlie's mother, who keeps using the grocery money to bail out Charlie's Father even though they were divorced years ago. But ultimately all of the moral people in this novel are out-thought, outclassed by the evil people and it left a bad taste in my mouth.

Worst movie ever
|
Not only is the plot boring and predictable, it's not even funny. Unless of course you enjoy people farting, making obscene gestures without any context or just like bad movies, you shouldn't consider this. There are much better movies playing along the same line (Austin Powers!) with much more brainwork involved.

I'm glad I bought it
|
I've been wanting to buy this product for years now, and did't because i was either pregnant, nursing, pregnant again nursing again and didn't really know if it was safe to use..... Finally i bought it for christmas, and have been using it twice a day for a month. The changes I've noticed for this past month has been in the texture and brightness of my skin. It is definetaly "healthier looking". I haven't noticed any major changes with wrinkles, but it is not magic, it has only been a month...I'll comment in a few more months and see if I'm getting younger!haha

Great on paper, poor performance
|
I wrote a review of these earlier, where I noted that the field of vision doesn't align. Well it does at infinity, but the near focus distance is entirely overated. I've seen 6 pairs of these so far, and all have the same problem and that is the field of view doesn't align. I sent them to Olympus repair and they say that they are within "spec." The focus knob has also broken free and had to be glued back to the pin. While the optics are exquisite, the alignment is ridiculously bad. I'd say move on to another pair. The Canon 8x32 wp or Nikon Monarch instead.

Not the pianist, Donn Trenner
|
The Item shown here comes up with a lot of the information about Donn Trenner, the pianist along with quite a bit of misinformation. There must be two Donn Trenners who have recorded music. The two are confused as one here in the information. This is NOT donn Trenner, the jazz pianist, conductor, arranger.

Really good, and so funny!

In this book, the saddle club girls have to tell a story about before they rode. Stevie and Lisa can do it, but Carole has to pretend that a pony is a dog! This book is just so funny! Of course it is good, because why would I be reading the saddle club still if they were boring?!

perfect take home for tourists

Nice photos; good for preserving memories of a visit to NOLA. Otherwise, not of much practical application.DeMers' collaboration with Jaeger on the later published "New Orleans Seafood Cookbook" is far superior. Save your money and buy the Seafood Cookbook.

Wow
|
Hard as it may be to believe it, the second season of "Wonder Showzen" is even more irreverant than the first, going so far as to include at least one episode of a (seemingly) completely different series --- intentionally, of course. It's a shame that only two seasons were made.

Poor sound quality for a high price.
|
I bought these to be an upgrade over my standard iPod headphones. Unfortunately the sound is tinny and the bass is extremely weak. When I plugged my old apple headphones back into my iPod the sound came through much better. This product is a waste of money, and I'm surprised that Sony can't produce earbuds of a higher quality than Apple.

Good luck with these!
|
These bottles made feeding my newborn a nightmare. During a feeding, the nipple would collapse keeping my son from getting any formula. I would have to stop feeding, unscrew the bottom and adjust the vent. This would happen several times in one feeding. My son would get tired from having to work so hard to get the formula, he ended up taking less formula than he did in the hospital. We switched to Avent bottles and feeding time is now enjoyable!

GREAT taste!
|
Mi-Del Old-Fashion "Swedish Style" Lemon Snaps are a crispy, chewy, lemony delight! If you are always in search of healthy snacks that aren't short on flavor, these are the cookies for you.These Lemon Snaps are made with organic unbleached wheat flour, canola oil and natural lemon flavor -- there's no artificial "lolly-pop" lemon taste here. You can just imagine squeezing the lemon into the mix, yourself.Five cookies have 140 calories, so it's not too much for a little something to get you through your day, or after dinner as a light dessert without the guilt.Highly recommended. Yum!

Good Rock
|
This album by Isle of Q can be described simply as straight up rock. I even think I heard some quitar solos. Good lyrics and good music, makes for a darn good CD. Standout tracks include "The Clone", "Sweet Potato", and "Hideaway". If you happen to like Isle of Q check out the band Dust For Life, or vice versa. They have similar sounds and are both good live.

I think that Monopoly is a very interesting and excitng game, but this no happen whit this version. if you full fil a propety whit all battle station and one division any player that put your token in that propety will lose the game because is too dificult to have enought money to pay for. If you play whit two player the game is too boring and too long, but if you play whit four player then there wont be enuogth battle satations and there wont be enuogth money. I think that it called MONOTOLY

Did not fit my Kitchenaid Classic stand mixer

I ordered this item to replace my original beater which was over ten years old, but it started scraping the bottom of the bowl and the coating started coming off. Unfortunately this item was for one of the larger mixers. Returning it hoping to find a new one that does fit.

Excellent!

I had read about Joe and Simon in Deep Survival by Laurence Gonzales (excellent book!) so I was excited to see that their story was available on film. This documentary is a wonderful story about triumph over tragedy. Their story is an inspiration to all about never giving up. This was a 48 hour rental and we watched it twice!

One word HORRIBLE
|
This is the worst album I have bought since the Ghetto Commision [what would you know another No Limit release].NLR isn't the same as it used to be the beats are very slow in some songs and there is no bass what so ever. Then on the J.Dupri song Jermaine sounds ok but it sounds to much like a dance song for MP. If I were you I'd save my money til Dec. 7 and buy Juvenles c.d. I can now honestly say that Cash Money is the army that No Limit used to be.

It has got an area code for the US and Canada

You should be clearly informed before buying that DVD ( not just"one of the ordered films may have an area code") that it's no use ordering that film in a European country, as the area code prevents the film from being watched.

Wrong Photo
|
This would be a great buy if the picture and the product description matched. The picture shows the Lewis & Clark commemorative oven, but the product code indicates the standard Logic 12" oven. This is a common error on the part of Amazon, mismatched picture and product. Also, be careful of their pricing claims, on the 8" oven they advertise lowest price of the season, but the oven was $8 cheaper the week before. Make sure you know your product before you buy - save yourself a major disappointment.Update 6/30/04: Getting closer to the truth, the picture is now correct for the product, but the description is still off. Per Lodge, the depth of the L12CO3 is 3 3/4 inches, not 4. This could possibly mislead people into believing the advertised oven is the "deep" version.

Not as substantial as I had hoped
|
I bought this to use as an overbag when flying with my frame pack on backpacking trips, so that all of the various straps and buckles, etc. aren't hanging out there to get caught in the luggage equipment. The bag is plenty big to hold my pack, but the material isn't nearly as heavy as the smaller Army-surplus bags I already own, and the clip that holds the top closed is a joke. It bent and popped open the first time I yanked on it. That's it: I can't trust it on a plane. The bag will still be useful, I suppose, and it's not very expensive... but don't count on it to be heavy-duty.

Thomas Jefferson knew best!

Peas were good old Thomas Jefferson's favorite veggie! Once you try Calbee Snack Salad Snapea Crisps, you'll love them, too -- and be able to stash them in your purse or desk for a snack any time you want to indulge.Nutritionally, these are great, especially compared to the other junk you might find yourself reaching for. Sprinkled as a topping on salads, they add tremendous flavor and crunch.I'm sure Mr. Jefferson would also be thrilled by the free shipping!

When a regular sharpie just isn't enough...
|
These super sharpies are exactly like a regular sharpie except they're larger and hold more ink. The tip is also larger and will produce a nice, thick line of ink. They're great for marking moving boxes, writing on files, creating fake tattoos, doodling on bathroom stall walls, etc... Highly recommended when a regular sharpie just won't do.

DANGEROUS!!!
|
I loved this machine when I first got it -- I couldn't say enough good things about it -- I read all the negative reviews and was so naively shocked that others could find a flaw with my beloved machine. THEN, I was innocently brewing a cup of coffee in the kitchen and holding my infant son about 6 feet away when the thing EXPLODED sending scalding hot coffee grinds all over me and my baby -- he started wailing and didn't calm down for almost an hour. This thing is so dangerous -- if anyone is initiating a class action suit against them, post it so I can join!!!

Disappointed!!!!

Buyers be aware! While I love the painting, be aware that if ordered through here, they will print in white font at the bottom corner the description/name of artist and the printing company. To me it sticks out like a sore thumb, especially if you have it in canvas style. The canvas style is not the painting wrap around the frame as how most conventional canvas are, it's the poster taped over black canvas material. I am seriously thinking of returning the painting and gettin it somewhere else that is recognizes that you do not print in white font on a dark background of the painting highlighting your company info.

Why is everyone grumbling about this book?

Police work isn't always like the show "Law and Order" - exciting with a lot of plot. What this book gives us is the everyday workings of a police officer. I'm personally enjoying this book and reading it for what it is.
