I give this classic comedy 5 stars. It is particularly interesting because it makes fun of both American and English cultural styles, each side satirizing what they think is silly about the other side. That makes this movie an insight into how the two cultures see each other - lots to learn from this!

My 2 year old LOVES her Weeble Treehouse. She has other Weeble toys but this is her favorite. I can't believe that she's playing with something that I had as a kid. You know they are great with that kind of staying power.

I thought maybe this would be a good read. I thought maybe this white author would get it right--Jamaica.Instead I found a dispassionate, unloving, misanthropic, mysogynistic piece of drivel. The only passionatepart by Ian Thomson was when he wrote about homosexuals. At that point in this history drivel Thomson was oh ...

I went to school with Vaughn Booker and his sister Delphine. I was as shocked as anyone who knew himwhen I learned through newspaper reports of his heinous crime.

For its genre, this film was excellent. It missed it's mark a bit in some of the acting and script. Otherwise, it is anotherCult classic for that particular genre.Interestingly, many of the actors,then unknown, went on to become well-known BIG NAMES. Worthwhile script.

SAMBAO made me get up and dance. I am a devotee of Kenny Barron's work. This cd had me IN Brazil.Kenny is expert--he feels, maybe atavistically--the beats of the people in each note he plays.The Steinway never had it so good as on SAMBAO.

This was a young Kenny Barron. Excellent musicianship. But I didn't feel the LIVE part of the audience.Tht was disappointing. His sidemen drove the pieces. At this point in his illustrious career, Kenny had notfound his true groove. But I loved this Kenny Barron, too.

Shipping was quick, it was in mint condition, so was the box, even though it was shipped overseas. It came with a piece or two from the Yoda statue, and since I bought Anakin as well, I have most of Yoda, one piece left :)

Although it is hard to relate sometimes to this poor fellow, one cannot help but feel admiration for what he is attempting to overcome in his life. It is heart rendering to hear of his new found "feelings", but I cannot imagine he will ever be able to truly break free of all the terror he has known in his life.

Awesome toy for our chew happy dog. We cut up old t-shirts and tie in knots her biscuits in it. Then we stuff the knotted up dog treat into this roller. She works very hard on getting out her treats. It gives us a few minutes undisturbed to watch a show.

This is a great bag and belt. I wish it were a little bigger as I find I am taking a lot of stuff with me on the walks. It does not get into the way wearing it. The fabric is a little scratchy as another reviewer mentioned but it won't harm you. It maintains it's shape, snapping back after opening it.

These are worth the money as I feel like they are safe and healthy for my dog. She is a real chewer though and I wish they were thicker maybe so that she wouldn't go through them so quickly. She is always happy to get her treat.
