Rehash
|
I am truly disappointed! This is rehash of songs from previous CD's of Linda's that we all have. There are a couple new songs but unfortunately they are all by FRANK - enough already!!! Linda, you are amazing but PLEASE try a new songwriter. Your voice is too amazing to not expand beyond the Wildhorn songbook series.

I never really watched the whole thing. It was so bad and pathetic, I couldn't watch it. A bunch of idiots acting like morons, that's what this is. And besides, who wants to watch a video that's just taped off the broadway stage. The songs are terrible and the plot is disgusting. Don't watch this. It is ridiculous.

To educate is to hold a life in your hands. Little Tree wasvery very lucky. We can all learn from his teachers, whetherthey be real or fiction. This book has definite lifetimemessages which are valuable to all. Luckily, the messagesare not contained within a preachy, wordy, sermonizing book.You will learn while you are captivated by the splendorof life, love and harmony which are so prevalent in this book.

How Much Will You Luv This Song When U Hear It?!
|
I have 2 say King Adora will be one of the biggest bands of 2001! I personally have seen them live twice and have all their singles - and smoulder is just one of the best songs they have. With the ingenious robot voice every now and again and the made up word "sexsational" it all just clicks together perfectly. Along with the B-Sides to this single "Loved" and "Massive Ego" I have 2 say the single is worth having. "Massive Ego" with its high pitch singing and "Loved" with its suicidal lyrics you can't help but love it! The only thing I can say is buy it!!

Very misleading
|
This dvd came in a movie jacket instead of in the actual case which just leads me to believe that it was stolen. It was a cheap movie, but I expected to get the case it came in. Very cheap of the seller to ship a dvd without any protection from the case. I was not impressed.

A huge dissapointment from a great author
|
What was Cormier thinking? I loved all his books up until now. This book was pretentious, unintellegent, extremely self-reightous novel that was unfocused, unfulfillig, unrealistic, and just plain bad. Cormier did propose some good ideas, and somehow got me through the whole thing. The idea of the avenger was okay for a while and what it turned out to be was neat (I was almost afraid he was blaming violence in television...close one). But the characters were very manufactured and contrived, and the book was just a disspointment.Now let's analyze the allegory. That's right. Robert Cormier, an awesome awesome writer, uses metaphors to compare...alcoholism and the Black Plague? What the heck? Look, alcoholism isn't good, but it isn't the Black Plague! I all around do not recommend this book. Instead, read Fade or After the First Death or I am the Cheese or In the Middle of the Night because...sorry Cormier, this one did not work out at all.

Don't need it, if you don't eat fatty foods!
|
I had purchased thinking it would work out well with an exercise routine I already had in place. I eat more than enough food, sweets and all, that I thought this would make some huge impact. Well...apparently I do not eat "FATTY" foods because nothing really happened with these for me. I already use the bathroom pretty regularly so that wasn't as overwhelming most people talked about. The only time this really bothered me was after I ate a decent amount of cheese. So really save your money if your diet isn't horrible.

fits nicely but muffles sound!

The case fits nicely and gives you relatively easy access to all the controls however, you will not be able to hear much through the plastic and whomever you are talking to will not be able to hear you very well. Pass on this case if you want to actually use your phone.

I don't really read a great deal of EJD's books because they're a little too wild for me, but I am so glad that I read Genevieve. This book deals with not only, marriage, love, commitment, and all that other stuff. It also deals with racism, child abuse, and a lot of other things that you won't find in your typical love novel. I love the way EJD made you feel everyone of the main character's emotion. I do find myself kind of turned off by the way he portrayed 'southerners'. Trust me, most people from the south are nothing like that. Certain parts weren't as 'real' as I expected them to be, kind of unbelievable and obiously fictional. Otherwise, this is a great book and the ending is one of the few that I had not predicted. I would recomment this to anyone who can handle an EJD book...

Incredible piece of technology. It is well designed. Now everyone in my family can use the home theater. Amazon actually had it for $49 including shipping for awhile. It's worth a lot more than that. Just think - one remote does it all and it's easy to set up.

flimsy, NOT 5lb foam
|
I have been trying to find a pillow to ease my neck soreness from sleeping. This pillow was very expensive and worth very little, if anything. Already gave it away. The foam is so squishy, it collapses. Based on the high price, I thought it would be as good as the Tempur-Pedic, but at a slightly (only slightly) better price. Way wrong. I've had Tempur-Pedic. I haven't been this disgusted with a cheesy product in a long time. I didn't have that much money to waste.

Quite possible the worst movie of all times. 0 stars
|
This movie [stinks]. The story is nothing like the original, the acting is horrific, the swordfighting utterly ridiculous.The scene that sums it all up is when the guards won't chase after a carriage going about 1 mph and everyone escapes.I have no idea how on earth anyone could make a movie so terrible. Extremely torturous to watch. Do not buy it, do not rent it. In fact, just read the book, which is awesome.

Overblown & Undergood
|
Like most of Beaumont's writing, this book is full of his self-aggrandizing attempts to sound like a "classic" food/drink author. Note: stop talking about yourself! Tell us more about the beers. Sure, the pictures are great -- and the book's almost worth buying for this alone -- but, to mix metaphors, "where's the beef?"

Not really for experienced knitters, either
|
Admittedly, I only attempted one of the projects in this book - the sailor doll. I am an experienced knitter, but despite my best efforts, this project was a disaster. I certainly do not plan to attempt another one from this book. The first problem I had was that I had ordered the yarn in accordance with the directions given - weight and amounts, and of the two main colors required for this project, the amounts were totally wrong. The piece required twice as much of one of the colors and four times as much of the other as was stated. This caused quite a bit of inconvenience and additional expense, and, of course, the re-order was not from the same dye lot. I agree with one of the other reviewers that eventually you can get used to the way Ms. Bliss phrases things, but the instructions are annoyingly vague - if you are not also an experienced seamstress, and even if you are, you might have difficulty following the directions for this project.

I know it's a personal thing but...
|
I thought I would try these as I am a boxer brief guy. I know underwear is a personal thing, but these did not "fit" the bill for me.They are a lot tighter than one would expect (putting on the XLs was like putting on a Med tighty whitey) - so I was feeling a bit "confined" all day when wearing them. The waist band does not hold up well, it folds over. The material is a different feel than standard cotton, soft with a tight weave for lack of a better description. They also seem to ride "low", so it felt like I was always needing to pull them up. They seem to handle the wash just fine and hold together well.So given all the above, I could only give them 2 stars. You might like them and rate them higher, but I will be staying with my boxer briefs for now.

A Great Fantasy
|
Many fantasy series deepen as they go along; Lloyd Alexander's Prydain Cycle and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events come immediately to mind. But this final novel in Eleanor Cameron's five-book Mushroom Planet series is truly a leap, as the other reviewers rightly indicate. The earlier books, which came out between 1954 and 1960, are good light fun, but "Time and Mr. Bass," which appeared in 1967, is rich, deep, intense, passionate, and unforgettable. The sense of evil is similar to that in Madeleine L'Engle's 1962 "A Wrinkle in Time," which may have been an influence. It would be perfectly possible to read this book before the others and still thoroughly enjoy it.

Nice & comfy, until they break
|
I would have rated these as a 4 or 5 until they broke. It turns out the speaker assemblies are held to the headband by a single tiny screw and a low-grade plastic cap. Seriously AKG? They're still under warranty, but what a disappointment.Otherwise, they are very comfortable; I could wear these for hours & hours. The tradeoff is that they are a little loose - I had trouble keeping them in place when playing drums, but great for sitting in front of a computer.I replaced the AKGs with some Audio-Technicas which are louder, still quite comfy and seem to be of much more substantial construction.Update: Attempting to get service with AKG/Harmon under warranty. No response to email for one week.

Everyone claps for success, especially here!

Once in a while a book comes along that has the ability to inspire children about how to take on a challenge and succeed in the world. Years from now we will see how many kids were influenced by this book aimed at developing their imagination. THE BOY, THE KING AND THE CHIHUAHUA with its bonus pages that include academic worksheets, are an easy-to-hold tool that will help future generations. It uses dynamic illustrations that come to life through cheering participation and simple enough terms for all to understand. With melodically rhythmic undertones as THE BOY, THE KING AND THE CHIHUAHUA is read out aloud, along with a strong message heard loud and clear, this book should join the classics.

This book is a highly readable work of scholarship, showing us a huge slice of humanhistory that is often hidden and suppressed in our culture - that of the jockeying forpower at the juncture of several very archetypal and powerful issues in our culture-gender, health, and power.

Seems to be well constructed, however, it is larger than I expected, guess I misjudged the "1 qt. size". I have had similar slightly smaller hand held paint pails that were more in the 2/3 to 3/4 qt size and they were much handier than this one. Still, it is functional and very well made.

Not "easy listening", that's for sure!

I've loved the Oils for a good 10-12 years now. This is the first album in that time that I just can't take a real liking too. The messages are just as strong as ever, and I like that, but the medium gives me a headache. While I appreciate their efforts to grow musically, only a few tracks on this album connect(White Skin Black Heart, Great Gibber Plain, Safety Chain Blues). I will put this one in the back of my case, take it out once or twice a year, and see if it ages gracefully. I'm looking forward to the next US tour, and praying the don't dig too deep into this material.

Waste of Money, Revlon unresponsive.
|
The one I purchased also fell apart, did nothing in the one configuration where it did not fall apart. It is incomprehensible how this is supposed to work.I wrote Revlon, received unapologetic instructions to return in a padded, insured envelope if I wanted more than an auto-reply saying there's nothing they intend to do. In other words, suck it up. It was only $5. The problem with that is it was $5 intended to buy a product, not $5 intended as a donation to Revlon.As I'm not going to that length, all I can do is recommend you try another brand. Revlon failed to even apologize for this thing. And it deserves an apology.

Buyer Beware of "Dr." David Jernigan and his claims...
|
This guy, Dr. David Jernigan, advertises like a new age snake oil salesman. I wouldn't put my health in the hands of a multi-level marketer who leads people to believe he is a Medical Doctor...he is not and MD, he is a chiropractor making and selling his own products. When his self made expensive "products" fail very seriously ill lyme patients, he blames them, accusing them of being negative and blaming them for their lack of spirituality. Beware of his sales people as "cured" patients.He also lurks on lyme disease patient forums to see what they say about his treatments/products and when they are not getting well, again he blames them. Don't fall for this - there are plenty of reputable alternatives to treat chronic lyme disease.[...]

I am very disappointed in this program. I have been doing my own graphics/cards for about 10 years. I started with Print Shop (early edition) and progressed thru all the updates. I then switched to PrintMaster and LOVED it!!! Again, I have progressed to each new verion with very little or no problems...until now! This has got to be the worst of the worst--- the program did not want to load without being babied. When it finally loaded, it was very confusing and I found that I needed to get my graphics from the internet! The area I live in only allows me to have dial up---you can imagine how long it takes to get the graphics I want! If you are interested in doing your own graphics/cards, skip this program...go back to PrintMaster Platinum 16 for much better results. As far as I am concerened, the River Deep Company needs to hide this edition in the DEEPEST RIVER they can find!

I have listened to the cd and besides Baby Lemonade, it is a dismal attempt at making a good cd. But then again look back at his past, Madcap was insanely terrible, and thankfully this man did burn out and didn't drag Pink Floyd down with him, despite being the leader of the pack. He can not hold a tune despite all efforts at trying, and the only true and honest thing I can say I liked was that David at least produced a decent sound for him. I sincerely quote that I have wasted money and hopefully a used cd store will restore me with the dollars I wasted on this piece of....

Another fantastic Radiohead album
|
Radiohead are easily one of the more influential bands to come out intact from the 1990s. I'm sure everyone has heard of OK Computer, it had an amazing impact upon music as a whole, making the Top 5 of almost every 'greatest album ever' lists for years.Kid A and Amnesiac followed, and while they were good, they didn't achieve the heights of OK Computer, being too full of experimental electronic music and lyrically rambling. Good albums, but not as accessible as OK Computer.Enter Hail to the Thief. Not as experimental as the previous two, nor as ambitious as OK Computer, it lies comfortable between OK Computer and The Bends. The album actually has guitars in it this time, which is definitely a welcome addition. While it *does* occassionally suffer from a bit of Thom Yorke rambling, the album is a very good listen even the first time, but it has enough subtleties to keep you enthralled for weeks and months to come.

I only managed 4 chapters. I write this because I disagree with the other negative reviews about the most fundamental problem with the novel. The chapters I read consisted almost entirely of thumbnail biographical sketches of a bunch of characters, none of whom was interesting. The lack of interest was almost beside the point. A novel should not require this much "set up" at the onset.

Caution, this album changes lives!
|
I write this as a warning to all who may order this cd! Before I purchased this album, I was a healthy, heterosexual male in the prime of my life. I took one listen to it, and the effect was instant. I awoke the next morning to discover that I had...changed! My hair grew into a carefully groomed swoop that covered one of my eyes. I noticed scars on my wrists where there previously WERE no scars. I traded my girlfriend for a boyfriend, and I started keeping a diary full of my deep and insightful thoughts on how hard life is. Oh by the way, look out for my bands new album coming out this fall, Avenged Chemical Boy.

Sean hannity is a Bill Oreilly copy cat. His book, his demeanor and his show are attempts to mimic Oreilly, therefore creating a me-too fake conservative host. The image of the shouting host with a pen in the hand telling his guests to shut up is getting old and boring. This genre of bogus conservatism is slowly but surely dying.Oreilly is a fake, and a creation of the corporate network executives to promote a specific political agenda, that in turn makes his copy cat Sean Hannity to be the same.Hannity's writers and editors have done a miserable job putting this book together for him.

Loved the features on this phone and have been satisfied with it for the first year and a half.However, now the display flickers, the speaker feature works intermittently, and the phones will not hold a charge.I'm not surprised really. What did I expect for the price?This is a good budget phone system but be prepared to replace it.Another con is that it does not provide a feature to auto dial the "1" before making long distance calls from caller I.D. My other phone permitted entry of local area codes and then autodialed the long distance prefix for other area codes.

A handbook of how to get along with anybody!

Type Talk at Work is a handbook on how to get along with anybody. This book expounds on the Myers-Briggs 16 personality types. And from each of the 16 is listed what the different personality types expect form their co-workers, and also what you can expect from them. Once you find your personality type, then I would recommend finding the type of your co-workers and determine with whom you naturally work best. This book is a blueprint success with your work groups. And it is also a useful guide for when you are having trouble getting along with the new person. The table on conflict resolution is particularly valuable.

Just a fun flick...

I am not a comic book expert, nor do I know much about the X-Men beyond the movies. I can say that the third installment lacks some of the depth of the first two, but so what? It's a joy to watch. I watched this with my son, and we both had a similar experience. It's wonderful with surround sound and the visuals are quite stunning. There are a few intense moments that may be a bit much for small children, but overall the pace is terrific and the characters engaging.

Pretty Good Book
|
This is the first x-men book I've ever read besides the comic adaptions of X-men the movie and the X2 adaption. I think its pretty entertaining. My favorite part is the first section where a young aquatic mutant gets a ride on the X-jet and then realizes his true potencial when rescuing Juggernaut from drowning. Jean-Paul's attempt to save a young boy reminds me of Captain America dealing with the death of his sidekick Bucky.

I was a little disapointed, but not too much
|
There is a lot of action, suspense, and some seriously complicated relationships are explained in-depth. I enjoyed it, but not as much as the first book. Several charachters are brought in that were not in the last book, even Thomas Riker(if you remember that transported accident in which Riker was duplicated) which adds quite an interresting plot. There were still a few questions which I don't think were answered well enough but the book contains betrayal, romulans....and I thought of writing more but don't want to ruin the reading experience of discovering it for yourself.

After reading other reviews I thought this was going to be a good reliable product and much better than waxing(something I find too difficult to be a practical solution).

Self-Indulgent

As other reviewers have indicated, this is not the place for the casual Jeff Buckley fan. The man obviously had talent, but too often over these two discs he seems to be playing strictly for himself. I am reminded of many nights jamming in a friend's basement where songs would often last ten minutes or more. Sometimes we would be brilliant, most times we were much less than that. While this was fun for us, it made our girlfriends run for the hills. Now I know how they felt.

O.K. Avril. You have issues and you like to scream. Move on!
|
What does it say about today's youth, if so many kids are buying into this poor me screaming irrelevant noise?! There are so many more interesting rock bands out there. If everyone likes Avril, that's cool. I just hope the folks buying into this angrier-than-thou/feel-sorry-for-yourself-with-me posturing also consider looking into some other great rock groups from around the world, and of earlier years. Not everyone is feeling sorry and angry all the time. It's a mood that has it's place. But this is cheesy overkill. The music (sans singing) is actually not bad, though...Maybe it's just Avril. Maybe she just needs a shrink. Then she can get with some relevant lyrics that speak to a bigger world than the one inside her head.

Was remastering really needed?
|
We all know that this was (and still is) one of rock's greatest records and a touchstone for much of the punk and indie-rock that followed over the next three decades. But,was remastering necessary? Did Stanley Clarke have a hand in this or what? The bass absolutely overwhelms Johnny's guitar on nearly all the tracks. Sure the sound is less muddy, but stick with the original release for "The Real Ramones".

admittedly quite bad...

I had high hopes for this book, after flicking through a lot of the Java books in the bookstore, this one really appealed to me because of the large text and nice diagrams. And while the book was pleasently easy to understand (most of the time), it just doesn't flow very well. I found that around page 130-140 I was finding out the stuff I was wanting to know within the first few pages. They also throw in a chapter on HTML in the most inappropriate place. This book seems VERY rushed, and this is obvious from the large number of errors. I was stuck on my code for a number of hours, before I got help from someone on IRC... they were like "uhh WHY does Switch always have a capital S?" and I replied "because this stupid book told me to *sigh*. Even the bonus pull-out "cheat sheet" that summarizes the whole book has at least one missing semi-colon. Trust me, get something a bit more... concise.

a disapointment
|
well, just looking at the cover you might see to half naked females makeing out, it was for this reason that i bought this anime. i thought it was lesbian hentai, but it is NOT! I would describe it best as a comidy with a hint of fan service. the picture on the cover comes from one of the characters dreams, the two girls really never even touch. so if your lookin for a bit of a laugh then go ahead and buy this, if your lookin for hentai, take your money elsewhere.

Presto 04820 PopLite Popper review
|
I like the popper. It is convenient, and very easy to use. Popcorn was completed in 3 to 4 minutes. And, easy to clean up. Only minor complaint was that the "butter melter" did not melt the butter by the time the popcorn finished popping. Over-all, I do recommend the product.

Better then expected

After doing a lot of research of which girdle to get after having my baby, I decided to give this one a try because of the great price. I think this is a great girdle! I could see a differece right away and I ended up wearing it for about 4 weeks (day and night) before it got too big (ordered small). I wish they would make one xs. I ended up getting the belly bandit but did not like it at all. The underworks girdle is very comfortable and I loved wearing it. I always had a cami underneath. I could wear it under clothes and you could not tell I was wearing a girdle. The only negative I have got to say about this product is that it does not wash well. The fit after the wash was not as good and I stopped wearing it. If you wear a cami underneath I do not think you have to wash it.

The first 5 or so issues of the comic book.
|
The first 5 or so issues of the comic book, explaining the mystery of Linda Danvers/Supergirl. This is not the movie novelization or the movie adaptation made by DC with the release of all DC movies, and it has very little, if anything to do with the movie; even the costume changed a little. All in all, it is a good book provided you like Supergirl comics, and you want to read the first issues compiled in a paperback cover.

This is soooooo cute!
|
I purchased this for a co-worker that collects any and all things Hippo. She was not familiar with the Backyardigans, but she back-flipped when I brought her this! I didn't purchase it for its educational value, durability, or even fun, but just for the look of pure joy on my friend's face when I gave it to her.

a huge disappointment
|
You would think that something titled the Premiere collection would include at least one of the classics. I was very upset. As for the comment that these are for children, no they were not. They were originally designed for adults. Don't bother buying this.

Better coffee
|
This grinder really makes your coffee taste better. It produces the same results every time you use it. Unlike blade grinders your coffee always comes out exactly the same with no variance in size. There are no large pieces and no clumping.I make two double lattes every day and it always tastes the same, never stronger, never weaker.The only negative with this product is that you cannot see exactly how much coffee you have ground, so it takes a while to know how long to run it for. If not for this, I would have rated it 5 stars

Truly Awesome Machine
|
Got this TV yesterday and so far so VERY GOOD! I have RCN Digitial with HD package. I usually watch only Hi-Def channels but tried this machine on non Hi-Def last night (Monk on USA Network) and it was awesome... This is an outstanding machine... setup was a snap... the swivel feature allows for easy access to cable ports in addition to viewing flexibility...I highly recommend this TV, I have been researching the 1080p category for some time and knowing the industry I decided to buy either Samsung or Sony... Sony's look great but are way overpriced especially given the fact that the HDTV revolution is being led by Samsung, LG and Philips... with Sony using Samsung technology... logical conclusion why overpay for Sony when it's a Samsung product labeled Sony...Highly Recommended... Amazon.com rocks with great service and great prices...

Game of Thrones is fantastic!
|
The series became intoxicating after the first few episodes. I am looking forward to the next season; I'll probably do a marathon over a weekend to watch Season 2. By the way, the editing is pretty good meshing the different characters into a seamless presentation.

I'm 30 and I still love Ella!
|
Last year, during the week in December between Christmas and New Year's, my Mom saw this CD at a CD store and immediately bought it for me. She knew I loved Ella Jenkins and thought I'd enjoy listening to it this holiday season. This is a good album for children of really any belief, because it exposes them to other religious and racial holidays besides Christmas. Ella sure picked some great songs. And I love her harmonica version of "Here We Go Looby Loo." Did you know that started off as a Kwanzaa song? Her harmonica version of "Raisins and Almonds," probably would have been a better choice for this album as opposed to her "And One and Two," CD. Because the song is after all a Hanukkah song. Nevertheless, this is a wonderful album for children of all ages! So buy it for your kids or for yourself. You'll be glad you did!

Buy McQuarrie and Simon's "Physical Chemistry" or Griffith's "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" instead of this book. The book is too concise, and it skips a considerable amount of math. The math is awkwardly addressed in his Mathematical Background and Further Information chapters. Also, the book is, overall, harder to understand. It may be the way the way the author words the sentences or the notation he uses for equations. I have spent hours trying to decipher what the author was trying to say in several chapters. I felt cheated on the time that I had to spent on this book to understand the concepts it illustrated.

Long Day's Journey Into Boredom
|
Convinced by my computer teacher to read this play, I checked it out in the library and read it in within days. The result: A very dissatisfied reader.Something like this won the Pulitzer Prize? If any of his plays should have won it (which a couple of them did), it should have been All God's Chillun Got Wings, not this pointless play.The family in this play was MUCH too dysfunctional. All they did all day (which the whole play was in one day) was argue and argue and argue. And when at times it seemed as if the arguing would end, one of the four characters said something that would spark up a new argument.Woe be to my computer teacher for suggesting me this book, for it bore me into tears.

Great for the Herbalist/Pagan
|
This book gives a great base for the Spiritualist who is interested in the use of the "green" in their religious practice. I was relieved to find a book that was more Earth oriented rather than focusing on commercialized ritualism, although some of the rituals seemed a little over done for a beginner to practice easily.As some of the other reviewers pointed out, there could have been more depth to some of the sections and others were padded with repeated information. Even so, I would recommend this one to anyone interested in learning more about the different variations of the Craft.

Boring and pointless
|
I liked Le Divorce (except for its absurd ending). But Le Mariage is a complete disappointment. Stolen manuscripts, millenium cults, surprise imprisonment -- huh? It comes off as unrealistic and silly, a waste of good writing talent. Not nearly as many funny lines or observations as in Le Divorce. Truly awful.

Needs more info on babies!
|
I'm sorry, I expected more from the Sears couple. It says 'The Baby Book', but it focuses more on toddlers I think. Very little information for babies in there. I wanted them to tell me how much of solid food to give to my baby, I think they gave like a teeny little paragraph on what was safe. VERY little weaning info, as they are all for nursing your child through college. Don't get me wrong, I am having a grand nursing experience with my daughter, but some people cannot wait until a child naturally weans unfortunately, and they don't really want to tell you that. Had I known how big they were with sleeping and nursing with your child, I probably would've opted for another book...

Exempted from English linguisitcs? Please.
|
While I do not often feel the call to defend Buckley, the statement by the previous reviewer that someone must be a native speaker to speak with authority to be incredibly nave. After all, you don't have to agree with Chomsky's politics to appreciate his take on Cartesian linguisitcs, right? Not only have some of the most accomplished writers in modernity written outside of their language (Nabokov and Conrad writing in English, and Beckett writing in French come to mind) But this position would eviscerate many branches of linguistics, such as translation studies (See "Le Ton Beau De Marot : In Praise of the Music of Language"). Even this is not to mention the effect that Levi-Strauss, Derrida, and others have had on the English-speaking world's understanding of language. Whatever else you can say about Buckley, he knows his English.

The group numbers and there are many sound identical. I was thinking of flying to London and seeing this show. I changed my mind after listening. The CD booklet is not a booklet but a mini-poster and a cute idea.

Epic Fail

One of the worst products I've every purchased. Poor design clogs easily and requires frequent and messy cleanings to keep in operation. Even then, it takes forever to cut anything. My older Braun still does a better job (after 8 years!) than this does after one. Don't be seduced by the specs an neat-looking design. Where it counts, this fails completely.

not what it appeared to be

The Food Mill was not what it was suppose to be. It had a plastic grinding plate, which wouldn't work for feeding a young one table food. I've had two food mills with metal plates in the past and they worked great. I needed a new one to give to my daughter-in-law. I knew that this would not do the job. I will keep looking.

You need more info pass the test.

You'll need to buy the Cisco self study kit to go along with this book to pass the test. The test is very hard, and this book is missing info on CDP, subinterfaces and the OSI model. However, they have large sections on AppleTalk, ATM and VLANs, which are not covered on the test. Go figure.

A Let Down...
|
I kept hearing bad things about this movie and that is what kept me from seeing it for so long. I was at a Blockbuster kiosk the other day and it was only $1 so I decided to rent it. After all, I loved the series and the first movie. I should have listened to everyone I talked to about this movie.IT WAS HORRIBLE! So bad. Oh, man was it bad. The only thing I found funny was when Charlotte said something about not wanting to lose the nanny.The movie went by so slow and I was thinking "when will this be over!?" throughout most of the movie.Too many bad puns. Jokes fell flat. And I didn't really like any of them. They weren't themselves. I'm just going to act like this movie never existed.

Disconnected
|
Wonderful idea, great team work, good intention, but not quite enough. I had hoped for a broader educational tool, something to help support the parents & families involved with these children. The story was stilted and 'not real'. The connection of these children was glossed over. The film left me concerned about exploitation of these kids and also about unrealistic expectations. Neale's best gift is writing, not acting. It ultimately left me disappointed and angry.

Savoy Brown.

I used to listen to "Train to Nowhere" in a cafe in Brighton, England, in the early '70's, and finally bought this cd which features it. Most of the other tracks I like too. Check it out - Savoy Brown will stand comparison with the best blues bands.

Christmas Gift For Friend
|
I purchased this trunk organizer as a Christmas gift for a friend to use in his 2004 Ford f150. My friend seems to really like his organizer and is happy with it as a substitute for a similar unit that I use in my 2010 Ford F150. I personally like my unknown brand organizer because mine has two dividers that separate the cargo organizer into three bins for storage. Both units fold easily to be put away behind or under the rear seat in an extended cab pickup. My friend likes that his organizer has a zippered cover while my unit does not have that feature.

It's not "Rings Around the World", but a second and third listen reveals subtle pleasures that may sneak past you at first. Like the Wedding at Cana, the best was saved for last; the final track is as good as any the Furry felows have unleashed.

I wanted to use this book.
|
I really wanted to use this book to teach my Modern Physics class this semester. But the fact that whole sections are omitted from the text and placed online ruined the book. Figure numbers jump in sequence, references are made to equations that are not in the text, and the whole experience of sitting down with a book to learn is defeated.I don't know why the authors or publishers insisted on doing this this way. I would have adoped the book if they hadn't.

* Anthropomorphic Dish, Spoon, THE WHOLE NINE YARDS ! *
|
Hey, diddle, diddle: What a 'Tall Tale' this is !In southern Indiana we have been celebrating such stories at a 3rd Annual TELL-OFF. The Stevens' sisters would fit right in, along with their brother Jack (GREAT PORTRAIT, that!) who plays the role of "fixer-upper" when the crazed DISH cracks up.Puns and "literary" allusions make this an entertaining read-aloud for adults who will doubtless 'catch on' to more than their young listeners.The authors embroider the original Mother Goose rhyme & the story moves briskly - - halting along the way while its sleepy characters consider their next moves in looking for the missing DISH & SPOON. Janet Stevens has provided wonderful facial expressions for her characters, PLUS athletic bods! Amusing and colorful (Reviewer mcHAIKU is envious of the FORK's Hawaiian shirt), the characters sure sound like "down home folks" don't they? And we look forward to Stevens & Crummels' next collaboration.
