An answer to a question no one cared about:
All this CD does is answer one of the great "who-cares" questions of Rock n Roll: whatever happened to Ike Turner?

Work in style
I bought this OSHA compliant pink hard hat so I could cut down the branches of my tree more safely. It has a Standard Slide-Lock suspension and fit is easy to adjust by sliding the plastic strap through the guide tabs. There is cushioning along the brow of the hat for comfort.The hard had is lightweight but looks tough and durable. It's pretty; but I also bought the hot pink version and I think the hot pink is prettier.Overall, a great find for me. I can do the job in style with full protection.

OUTSTANDING!!! I bet I have looked at this book from cover to cover a dozen times AND STILL find it moving ever time I go back and look at it again. I feel a kinship to many of the people shown because they reminded me so much of my own family and the lives they lived as farmers.This is no "coffee table book of pictures!" Appropriately done in black and white, the photography is stunningly powerful. No sugar coating here in telling the story of the hardship these folks lived. The photos captures their lives and moods in a plane and simple way leaving viewers with a real sense of "the other side of America."If you purchase this book. be prepared to have those around you take a look at it and then talk about it.John Francis Ficara, you did good!

Beautiful Music
This CD brings back many fond memories. I first heard it on vacation in Eleuthera, Bahamas. 8 of us rented a beautiful home, and this CD was in the owner's collection that he had available for our use. If you have a favorite beach spot, this CD will make you feel like you are there. The CD was out of issue for some time, and it was an "extra" Christmas present this year when it popped up on my wish list as available again. It is an amazingly beautiful instrumental piece of music, that combines music with sounds of the ocean. I highly recommend this CD.

Not what was expected.
I am very unsatisfied with this book. It only gives instructions on how to setup a lamp using one distro only. And it was geared only to well experienced users. The book was incomprehensible to me.

A story about love lost and revenge
This is a review of the free Kindle Version.The focus of this story is on Gerald Venner, a wanderer as he is described. While dining with a friend he sees a man and a woman he knows very well. And a plot that has been delayed for three years, starts again with a Vengeance.The story of these people is quite interesting, and their connection to the Four Fingers mine. Why it is named that, well, I hope you aren't squeamish.The way the story is revealed is quite enjoyable. The characters are interesting and fun to watch.If you like a story of revenge, be sure to download this.

Needs work!!
After moving to CA from CO, and having used Colorado 14er guidebooks by Dawson and Roach, I was disappointed by this book. While there are many fine photographs, wonderful climbing history of the peaks, a slew of routes, and many routes superimposed on photographs, there were many elements that I find essential, that were missing. Topographic maps of the areas in question (with routes drawn on them), round trip distance information, elevation gain, and an estimated (conservative) completion time are essential pieces of information when planning a trip, and are not included here. While the difficulties of the various routes are described well, these other descriptors would make the book twice as good as it is now. Dawson's format, at the beginning of each route description, listing the aforementioned deficiencies (with the exception of the maps) is excellent. From the guidebooks I've looked at though, this is the best available.

My baby is happy
I've read some negative reviews on this book at this web site. All I can say is that thanks to this book, little Adam started sleeping through the night in his seventh week. He wakes up smiling every day. As Ezzo says in the book the sound of crying from distress is quite different from crying to unwind, so let them cry a little! There is nothing cruel about letting a child relax himself. Also, children are happy when they're in a secure, pleasant environment, not a sleep deprived and grumpy household!

Poor Design of Blade Lock
Appearance is nice. However, like the same knife branded and sold by other companies, the design and implementation of the blade locking mechanism seems nothing more than an afterthought. It is nothing more than a dimple in the latch that swings shut with some difficulty onto the blade.

some people i've talked with are disappointed that it sounds different than the Strange Cargo series. but..... ITS NOT! does it say Strange Cargo? no! this album is so good! it's its own thing and i love every single second of it for that very reason.the first song kicks off so beautifully and you know that you're in a ride for another adventure by William Orbit. beautiful beautiful BEAUTIFUL layers and melodies that i just cant get enough of. so layered and textured and pure genius. i love this album. if you like electronic, you would love this album

Killer Ending
Never saw this ending coming. There's nothing like a nice, fresh jolt of surprise at the end of a good mystery and "Killer Swell" delivers a healthy kick to the mid-section. Check other reviews for a sample of the overall plot but I would just like to add that Noah Braddock is a solid character because of his comfortable blend of permanent teenager and cold-eyed determination. As his female foil says to Noah: "You screw up, you do dumbass things, but in the end, you get it right. You just have to do some stupid things before you get to the right things." Yes, it's just Noah's way. "Killer Swell" is a very enjoyable meal of beer, sand, women, mystery and surf.

Worst camera ever
After owning a Olympus 2020 2Mpixel for 4 years I expected a slightly better Olympus with the Stylus 600. Use my digital cameras for auctions, many personal indoor/outdoor portrait photos and many landscape and scenic photos. Maybe there is something wrong with my 600 but I've tried for 3 months to get good photos and only a few are good. The 2020 took great photos, perfect color and light, great balance throughout and minimal red eye. Almost every 600 photo has big problems - whether blurriness or major red-eye or wierd lighting balance or lack of saturation, etc. I give up and will call Olympus tomorw to return this awful camera. I've tried almost all the 25 modes to get a few that work for me and it's very difficult. NOT a good point and shoot and NOT a good camera even after selecting the supposedly ideal mode.

Disappointed in Quality
I've purchased Hoya filters in the past and was very satisfied. I didn't realize until the filter arrived that it was multicoated and had serious reflection problems. Also, the filter had the Hoya name but was made by Tokina. I am familiar with Tokina lenses but didn't realize they had glas making capbilities. Did they buy Hoya filters? I strongly recommend anyone buying a Hoya polarizing filter buy only one that has the HMC (Hoya Multicoated)labeling. Multicoated polaring filters are a must as one of their primary purposes is to reduce reflections.

Worst Transfer of All Time
I was very anxious to buy this DVD cause Bruce Lee was one of my childhood heroes, but the image and sound quality is so bad that I might as well just use it for a coaster. It's like watching one of those old 8mm films.I hope that the owners of the film get smart and restore it. I'll be willing to buy it again if it was cleaned up.

so far, so good
i've only had this product for...maybe a month, and so far it has worked fine. I do think i have to reset it more than usual when i'm trying to turn it on, which i find weird. Basically, sometimes it won't turn on when i press the play button. i usually listen to it at night, and fall asleep before the playlist ends, and when i try to turn it on the next day, i have to do the 'reset' procedure. maybe i'm just not used to the little quirks of an ipod? battery life has been decent, since i use my ipod practically everyday, i do have to charge it every night or so, but i knew about battery life expectations when i was looking for an ipod. i bought a case for it, because i wanted to protect the ipod (since i use it on a regular basis). Other than these 2 things (battery and reset), the ipod has worked software-wise when i have to plug it into my computer. it has lived up to my expectations for an ipod.

Ersatz andy
I have yet to see Blade Runner so I can't figure how the story would work without the animal theme. This was a good story, though. It seemed like the androids were humans as we know them(generally indifferent to the plight of animals) and the humans were actually super-humans(had telepathic powers) and that was neat. The JR Isidore sub-plot was not as interesting as the main plot. The Buster Friendly - Wilbur Mercer sub-plot was cool, though, especially when Buster makes his announcement.

as a student I've found his text confusing and his exercises horridly dumbfounding. I bought 4 other probabity books to understand what he's trying to say. All the other books are better at explaining the examples and in general more patient with the student. If you are a student, buy another book to learn the material.

Rocking stuff indeed!!!!!!
I had not been as excited about a band live since the days when High Noon, Big Sandy, Dave and Deke, and Go Cat Go were in their heyday back in the 1990's, but then I saw these guys at the Round Up in Austin and I found myself pumped up. This band to me goes right up there next to the great modern American rockabilly bands. They found the pulse of rockabilly, were very tight as a band, and had a unique sound that jumped out at you. You would not mistake them for anyone else. I am sad to hear they are no more and I will leave off by saying that this is a must have CD.

They love it!
Both my younger cat (<1 year old) and my large dog love this toy. They will sit on opposite sides of it and push the ball to each other. My two older cats (16 years old and 3 years old) pretty much ignore the ball and just enjoy the cardboard scratcher part.The cardboard insert can be flipped over and the other side used before needing to completely replace it.I like the fact that replacement cardboard scratchers and replacement balls can be easily obtained through both local shops and online.I purchased this after seeing my mom's cat (7 years old) playing with it. Apparently it appeals to cats of every age, but I would think kittens would find it most entertaining.

Worth it if only for SHEILA!!
I stopped buying the live All-Starr cds after the third one. But I couldn't pass this up for the low price. Considering that, it's very much worth it. I understand there the previous All-Starr live disc has half of this material, so if you have that this may not be such a great buy. But I was happy to snag it for six bucks. I saw one of the shows from this tour, and it really was a good line-up (expect for Howard Jones). Sheila E. really stole the show right from Ringo. She's a great drummer and a great performer. This disc has both songs she did, and they are the highlights of the disc.

The Bottom Line
So this anime is loosely based on several immortals living in the 1930's. I know your like 'wtf'. It's anime though, so those of you not saying 'wtf', you know what anime is all about. I would rate this show 4/5, with the presentation (video/audio/packaging) at a 4.5/5. The bottom line is I wouldn't rank this as a must buy, but I think it's a well above average anime that should be enjoyed by the more intellectual viewer. No one under 13. Plot and characters are much more deep than the norm, so it is very, very, enjoyable, I promise.

This game had great graphics, effects and sound for a puzzle game! The puzzles were pretty interesting, and fun to do, though in the higher stages, I felt that luck had a lot more to do with winning than thinking about it, but hey it's a game. A great way to pass the time!

One Lousy Star?
Yes, the sound quality is GOD AWFUL. It's a shame, because this is an amazing show. The line-up is tight(same players as YCDTOSA V2). There's killer versions of some "Freak-Out" tunes, and the version of "I ain't got no heart" on this album is 10 times better than the one on "Tinsletown Rebellion," even with the cruddy sound. You even get an almost complete version of "Oh-no" (it starts at "...all of the fools, all of the hate...") that is similar to the way it appears on "Weasels." Most of the other versions of this song you find on YCDTOSA and "Ahead of their Time" are the instrumental one. So what if it sounds like it was taped from the John at Notre Dame University instead of the stage? If you listen to it enough, you start to pay less attention to the quality and realize how good the band is.

High-end trash
Everyone in my Book Club raved about this book (I may now have to find myself a new Book Club). The writing was bland and simplistic and the book was far too long for the simple story it was telling. The characters left me cold; there was not a sympathetic one among them. The women were all scheming and duplicitous; the men unfaithful to their families and driven completely by the basest urges. If this is what constitutes a best-seller, remind me to stay away from them.

Buyer beware...
We purchased the Booda Cleanstep and loved it!!! Until we started having to buy liners which have became increasingly difficult to source. Booda brand was rarely available and the other brands never fit right. Litter changes often involved collapsed liners, taping ill fitting bags, spilled litter and a lot of frustration. So disappointed we couldn't keep the Booda around. We've gone back to the traditional box and wondered why we waited so long!

Terrible Battery Life, Low Quality Parts, But it Works
While there is little doubt that this collar will have your dog responding to the stimulus immediately, I don't think it is good value for the money. The battery lasted no more than a week and these are not cheap batteries to replace. The plastic buckle is cheap and easily breakable. There is no loop for a leash to attach so your dog will need to wear at least two collars if you are on a walk and want to use both leash and shock collar. My strong recommendation would be to spend a little more money and get a collar with a rechargeable battery and higher quality craftsmanship.

Oscar Would Have Done Better
From the reviews I have read regarding this box set, I think I will stick with a set of really complete episodes that I bought years before on Ebay. These are DVD-R discs and they were taken from TV broadcasts, but there is every episode, complete and in the proper running order. Even at his sloppiest, Oscar Madison would have done a better job with the set Paramount put out. At least he knew that complete means complete. After all, he worked for a newspaper.

I had ordered this DVD so I could show it to my students who are reading O Henry stories. I was disappointed; the acting is so amateur; and the "frame" for presenting the stories is so corny. So I hunted for the 1951 film "O Henry's Full House" (Fred Allen, Marilyn Monroe) and finally found it on eBay. It may be 50 years older, but it's much better!

Hmmmm.........!
Oh, so my earlier review got taken off, I guess. I'm the most honest reviewer here. Well, I'll take the time to write a few things I failed to mention before. Jessica Bimboson has the I.Q. of a tomato, and is as ugly as her sister, but they at least make money doing nothing. They get noticed doing nothing so they get paid for it. Hey, maybe I can become famous! Forget my band, I'm gonna go get married and get paid a thousand bucks and hour for doing nothing! See? That's what these two are like. Jessica's singing is horrible but she's getting paid for doing absolutely nothing. So, folks, do nothing. You'll get paid enough to buy a mansion, a new car, maybe your own clothing line, virtually anything. Wow, what is this country coming to...- Brian Morrison

Chariots of the Gods
This book horrifies me. There is not one single shred of proof anywhere in it. All the conclusions he reaches are based on either an overactive imagination accompanied by psychosis or downright fraud. Instead of researching his findings he simply makes judgments on the fly that have no basis in reality. I couldn't even find this book entertaining as to how poorly it was written, how fervently he states is "facts", and the absolute lack of scientific integrity. If you really want to read it get it from a library don't waste money on it.

Not a bad clock radio
First off this is a pretty small clock. A good small, not tiny. Also, it does have two alarm settings, but alarm A is the radio alarm and alaram B is a buzzer alarm. No idea it was like that from all that I had read. No biggie tho. A nice feature is you can adjust the snooze time to be greater than 10 minutes if you want. Another nice feature is the nap setting. It can be set for as little as 10 minutes and as much as 90.Overall not a bad clock for the price.

A great book for adding that elusive element of greatness...
This is different from any 3D book I've ever seen. In most refernce manuals there is a ton of space devoted to dialogue, some useful most not. This is like a cook book, you look up an effect and follow the directions. No paragraphs that go on forever before reaching the useful information. This is a reference set up people who know there way around MAX, no nonsense modeling and animation tips and tricks. A definite must for serious animators...

I'm so much a Brandy fan that I refuse to burn her CDs for other people. I would strongly suggest that she contact the individual(s) who produced "Never Say Never", because this "Afrodisiac" CD is mediocre at best. I cannot hear the potential of another single that can be released on the radio. Where are my nice ballads?????? After the 'D' rated "Full Moon" CD, I expected a lot more. This CD can only get a 'C', and that's being generous. "Never Say Never" got an 'A' and maintains it's 'A' grade to this day. I'll have to chalk this one up as a lost, again !

Great Game, But Only One City Is Unlocked When You First Play
I like the game so much, but it is the way they do the cities, they had all cities availbile in the first game, in 2 and 3 they had 1/3 of the cities unlocked.Here are some grades for the game:Cities/Unclocked 3/3- F-Cars A++Graphics A+++So in conclusion, when you buy this game, do not expect all 3 cities to be unclocked. This game is an overall good game, but the cities are not unclocked, one is, the sucky city of San Diego, I would rather race in one of the three cities once a week.I quit playing the game because all cities are not unclocked.Break Started: Sunday, July 17, 2005Break Ends: Wednesday, May 25, 2006

DO NOT BUY THIS TOASTER !
AMAZON, DO NOT SELL THIS PRODUCT TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER !Beware. This toaster is unsafe. I purchased this product on September 27, 2008 and on December 15, 2008, it almost caught my kitchen on fire. The 2 left slots will not eject the toast. Also, the special eject push button does not work. Had I not been in the kitchen, the bread would have caught fire. The bread ended up being so charred it was worthless. So much for assuming the toaster works properly. I have tried contacting T-Fal via the telephone and email. T-Fal sent me an email with "incident # 081213-000013" but to date, no one has contacted me back. The wait-time on the phone is ridiculous. T-Fal should have more respect for consumers. So now, I'm expected to ship the product to a T-Fal service center and pay for shipping on a product that didn't even last 3 months? Please Amazon, remove this product from your store and do not sell it to anyone else. Model # 572727 Ref # TT750150/4YA-4707

Politically Motivated Shennanigans!
An inciteful not an insightful book. Fit for those that watch Fahrenheit 9-11. Devotes little time to fact, highly discredited and worth little less than the paper it was printed on. A great waste of money and useless diversion from the politics of the moment. Everything is fair in war and love , but in an attempt to present gibberish in the wool of intellectual analysis is not only disgraceful but once again re-emphasizes the politics of hate and destruction that have overtaken our nation, about a decade after the 1992 election was won and lost. God Bless George Kerry and no one else - that is the succint review.

Nice Anthology
This anthology collects a number of tracks from leading Scottish folk artists, including Aly Bain, The Boys of the Lough and others. A generous 17 cuts. I deducted a star because the title implies that these are live cuts recorded at a folk festival. However, they are all studio cuts which appeared originally on other CDs and have been licensed for this collection.

Tedious Wankery!
This album was made by a bunch of fake hippies, tootling on instruments they don't know how to play (or don't have the limbs to play, as with the two saxophones at once business), pretending to be ultra-crazy and avant-garde, and laughing all the way to the bank. An album for chumps who want to pretend that they're crazier than everyone else. Guess what, mates? You can keep it. Listen to this a million times if you want, it won't make you anything more than a buffoon with bad music playing on your stereo.

Great show.... in person and on DVD :)
I went to this show back in February with a friend, but was not initially going to go. I enjoyed it immensely, and the fact it was being filmed was great also! I had never been to a filmed concert before. One thing that you may not know, is that at the actual show, things were kinda messed up. The whole opening sequence went wrong when the dancers came down on the elevated platforms. When they got to the bottom, Janet et al. just walked off stage! We then had to wait a bit, and a guy came out and explained they were going to do it again! It was rather funny, but I'm sure Janet was mad! So what you see on the dvd, was actually a spliced version of two different opening sequences since the pyrotechnics did not occur the second time around. Anyway, the concert was ace, and I would recommend this DVD to anyone into Janet or the current state of Pop/R&B music today.

What teenager would write this?
no normal 14 year old i know would write this stuff even in his own diary. the book was incredibly boring, had no plot to speak of, and characters were undefined. I beg to differ with anyone who thinks this book is funny or interesting

"Grunts" is a terrific read... I couldn't put it down!
A high degree of detail & description. Very funny and at the same time brutally invigorating! A great cast of characters with plenty of storyline to go around. Mary Gentle's "Grunts" is like combining L. Ron Hubbard & David Drake together for an adventure you won't forget!

Seiko doesn't work
This watch is supposed to work by winding from action. Despite hours of back and forth movement, the watch would stop as soon as I did. I ended up returning it and selecting a different Seiko (battery operated).

Great beginner toy
My son got this as a gift when he was 6 months old, he is now 10 months old and it continues to be one of his favorites. He is still fascinated with the different instrument sounds and loves pushing on the keys.

Awesome golf game
Tiger Woods 05 is definitely a GREAT game. I bought 2003, and then missed out on 04 (which is when the gameface and stuff was added), so then when i got 05 i realized how big of a jump it was from 2003-2005. The Gameface II is insane, how you can mess with EVERY POSSIBLE thing, even if you have a dimple or not (like it even matters too much, but that even makes it cooler!) The gameplay is so good, and the graphics are amazing. The only thing i found that wasnt good was a few glitches, like grass floating in mid-air...but thats ok its no big deal really...Overall, there are so many things that you can do (Real time events, season, dream 18, legend tour...) that you will play this game for days on end without stopping. It is THAT fun...HIGHLY recommended

Lords of dissapointment???????
I bought this c.d not knowing it was mainly remixes. I gave it a try though. The further into it I got the more disappointed I got. I felt the new songs lacked the lords of acid energy. As for the remixes out of the bunch there where only a couple that stood out, and even these were no wear near as good as the originals. If you like remixes then this is the album for you. If your looking for the signature lords of acid sound I suggest you listen to their old albums until they release their next full length album

Does the job
This fan does the job. The cord storage space underneath is tiny and hard to fit the cord into though. But otherwise works well.

Good Effort, Pathetic Product
It was a truly good effort in talking about children with special needs, but this book is not well written. The grammar and spelling are not great, and the sentence structure is very childish. In addition, there is not much psychological information in this book. As a counselor, I was hoping that this would be a good memoir, but also that people could learn from this family's experience. Instead, there are glossed over life stories and "self defined" ideas of psychiatric disorders. While I'm sure it was written with good intentions, this book was severely disappointing.

The new "Bridges of Madison County".
This book would make a great movie starring Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. Makes the process of getting older much more exciting. The author has captured the beauty of love. flowers, and life.

Another angle on war
I served in the Vietnam War, and lately I've read two really good books that approach it from two different directions - - the novel Matterhorn and this unusual personal account: Fall to Grace. One is a gripping, grueling view from the trenches, and one (this one) an equally compelling adventure of a lost soul facing early death as a junkie in New York alleys, who joins the army as a last hope to survive and straighten up. It's not the military life that redeems him (on the contrary, he goes AWOL in Vietnam...), but the intervention of a higher power. Having been immersed in spiritual research myself for the past 20 years, and having some experience with overcoming addictive patterns, it's this book that really hit home for me, especially since it's based on the author's real-life drama. Amazing.

Hilarious!
This is a staple in every pageant girls' collection. It's one of those movies you have to see at least twice to think it is funny. It's dry and witty. Plus, the actresses are perfectly suited for their roles. The movie might not be for everyone. For those that can appreciate the humor, it's a blast!!

No color pictures
Major disappointment. Probably a ton of good content. But the little stick drawings of plants, at best, and no drawings a lot, for most, is a real let down.

Hidden Gem
I got the chance to hear one track on a compilation CD (Stories of a Hero) and was completely hooked. What a wonderful album that encompasses many styles of music. The best parts are the Emotion put into the music and the sound quality. Top notch.

Mercyful Hate/King Diamond sounding metal from Kansas
Heavy death metal and thrash metal influences coupled with King Diamond-esque vocals. Definitely worth a listen to any fan of mid-90's metal with a taste for something a little different. A lot of the lyrics are Christian based but one should not be scared off because of that fact, they never get preachy or point fingers. This is a high quality recording, don't miss out on a great band that never got the attention they deserved..

difficult to successfully purchase scent without smelling it....
Love SJP but was disappointed in her Parfum. Very common and one dimmensional; lacks sophistication and complexity. Didn't find it subtle and couldn't wait to shower it off. That's just one girl's opinion; I'm sure there are others who might feel differently....

A golden goodie blast from the past!
This cd is my favorite of all the Carpenters albums. It takes me back to the late 60's, early 70's- the way rock n roll radio used to be. Their renditions of the oldies and Richard as the dj are a super mix. If you like the music of that era (American Graffitti, etc.), you won't want to miss this classic.

Ideas: An Idea Whose Time Has Definitely Come
I just read this book, and every fiber of me is screaming, "Yes! Yes! Yes!" I LOVE what Joey Reiman is doing with BrightHouse and Thinking for a Living.I am reinventing my own life and business, finding innovative ways to combine both my passion for writing and spirituality and my love for birthing great ideas, both my entrepreneurial endeavors and my "real life" as a single parent of a 6-year-old.This book feels like the perfect fit for what I want to be about--creating great ideas that outlast me. The idea: it's an idea whose time has come. I, for one, hope it stays for awhile. Hats off to Joey Reiman for being a pioneer for the ideation corporation!Dawn Richerson, President, Creative Revolutions, and author of From the Heart of a Child: Meditations for Everyday Living

Great product, but finish needs improvement!
Overall, a very well designed and functional product. Too bad that the edges and corners of the aluminum sheet components had to be deburred, and the corners had to be rounded. If not done, the edges could cut your hands and the corners could tear your clothes or upholstery in your wehicle. Seems like fewer and fewer manufacturers are likely to completely finish their products anymore. I guess hand finishing is too expensive. That's why manufacturers are going overseas for cheap labor and hand finishing.

I don't get it
I have fine, frizzy wavy/curly hair, that on occasion, I like to wear straight. I purchased this product about a year ago after hearing a lot of great things. I thought it would help with the major case of frizz I get when I trying to blow dry my hair straight. It didn't help. It did, however, make my hair feel very soft.Personally, I don't think this product is worth the cost. A Brazilian Blowout works best for taking out the frizz, but then again, I lose all my curl potential for a couple months. I'm still on the hunt for a great defrizzing serum.

THE Childhood Favorite
This was my ABSOLUTE favorite book growing up. The art is just wonderful....magical really. The story is great and it never got old. I read this book over and over until it fell apart.Wish I could find a reasonably priced copy today for my niece and nephew!

Uplifting Downer
When a hugely popular writer like Hornby writes a book that's this consistently and persuasively pessimistic, you've got to give him credit for guts. The only thing not to like about this novel is its protagonist, who like all of Hornby's indulges in way too much whiny special-pleading. He really does have the number of a certain class of suburban, self-righteous liberal types, but the main glory of this book is the plausibility of its weirdos - the character of DJ Goodnews is a real triumph; ditto for the street kids who get taken in by the book's central couple. The couple themselves are a bit of a cipher, by comparison, but one sees enough funny stuff through their eyes to make _How to Be Good_ a pleasure to read in spite of its uncompromisingly grim message about the prospects of escaping from a failed marriage.

Nudity couldn't save it from it's fate
The movie is almost 1 + - hours long. It is all so boring you will feel it right away from the very beginning. Half of the movie is based on nudity and mixed with sex scenes. But was even this fun to watch? No, like the whole movie it was plain boring. I advice to skip it or watch without high expectations.

Endlessly bored
I had read all of Jodi Picoult's book. When I got my Kindle for Christmas, I found this one and thought I had to read it as well. I couldn't get into this one at all. It takes forever to understand who the characters are and then once you find out what is going on, you don't like them. Unless you have an intense love for the song of the humpback whale, don't bother. The characters are very badly explained and the back and forth is exhausting. Jodi's other books are so well written and pull you in to the story immediately. As my friend just told me...don't read it...who is going to care. So I quit reading it about a quarter of the way through.

Very Misleading!
though it was the album mentioned, it was not in fact VINYL as advertised! The fact that is was labled as the Vinyl issue of this album is why i bought it in the first place & it turned out to be a lie. This actually makes me very weary about ordering from Amazon. The seller should have not made this claim if it were not true. Very bad review for this seller...

Delightfuly Fresh
Lovely coming of age story of a young boy who is struggling to understand himself in relation to the world and the people around him. Love the narrative voice and the simple language which is perfectly suited to the character. Delightful and easy to read, finished in 2 days.

Calming and engaging for toddlers
My granddaughter, now 19 months, has been watching this series since she was one year old. It holds her interest, yet seems to calm her, unlike so much children's programming that tries to hold the child's interest by means of excitement. Oswald is a good choice close to bedtime.

Better than expected
Given the rather mixed reviews here I had only fair to middling expectations for this DVD. While the limited budget is evident, I have to say the movie (or novella if you prefer for a feature only about 50 minutes long) was much better than I expected.The silent movie feel suits the material very well. The acting is serviceable but in keeping with the overall tone of the film. In the end this is a very suitable telling of Lovecraft's classic story.All that being said, to make the purchase of the film worthwhile you really have to be Lovecraft devotee. I could see where someone new to Lovecraft might not "get" the film. Previous reviewers are correct in their criticism of the special effects. While the Cthulhu monster fits into the overall feel of the film, it lacks the terrifying zing modern audiences have come to expect in their onscreen terrors.

panasonic cordless phone
Big disappointment. Unlike previous Panasonic phones that have always been 'slightly ahead of their time' this phone is difficult to use and there are too many steps involved to make or take a simple phone call. It's designed as badly as MS software. One of the annoying features is you have to hold the button down for almost 3 seconds to take a call on hold - it's a mess. Stay away.
