0 | Can I have My Time Back Please! | I was told by a friend with similar tastes in books that this is good series.I read the first book, and was underwhelmed. Denning has great difficulty developing his characters, and plots.While they are extremely imaginative, and may work well as a movie, they are terrible in book format. The number of plot holes you have to ignore, and assumptions you have to make is ridiculous.I was hoping that the second book would be better than the first. It is not. I will read the third one just because I want to see how it ends, but suspect I will also dislike it. | 4,901 |
1 | Sons Of Anarchy Season Four | Love Love Love these shows, and Jackson in the shower yeah I dreamed all night. I have all the seasons cannot wait for five to come out. | 35,947 |
1 | EXCELLENT | Eddie Palmieri, like most early-1970s jazz players, must have known popular music had taken over the world and caught the bug.Whether he wanted to make money or just expand his horizons, it really doesn't matter.He formed this band, Harlem River Drive, in 1970, and made one hell of an album. Truth be told, this project does not have much to do with the Latin Jazz Eddie is known for. Harlem River Drive is an out and out soul funk album: wha whas, grooving percussion, all the ingredients you would expect from a crack unit during the era.And more: with a baritone sax--an extremely underused instrument in all genres--in front, this album has a uniquely jazzy flavor, even though the beats could be off a Santana or War or Mandrel album.As funk, it works full bore, but the novel textures here make an already fantastic funk project so much more. | 8,006 |
0 | AL ROKER...A NON ROKKER | This is an autobiography as related to the author's two children. He doesn't delve into any other area of his life except about a few comments of his TV career.Al's sincerity comes through, shining, but this book is meant for the first time parent at a youthful age. There is not a whole lot of information to pay attention to, but this is just a simple story of how one man looks at his status of fatherhood. | 7,385 |
0 | This item is badly advertised! | I was told this item worked with mmc/sd cards. When I got the item, plainly on the box it says for use with Handspring Visor only, which is pretty much an obsolete PDA. It does not work with any of the new PDAs that house the SD cards. I have a PalmOne LifeDrive and it's way too big for it. Don't buy this item unless you have a Handspring Visor!! | 6,652 |
1 | Awesome Device | This product does exactly what it says it will do. It is well built and really is fun to operate. Don't waste your money on a bin, just buy a trash can to stick underneath. If you use a liner then when it's full just remove bag and take to recycling center for $$$. | 11,029 |
0 | a total disapointment | This is a badly written book on a very macabre subject. The idea that a serial killing postal carrier is killing off his customers is horrific. I lost friends in the Edmond, Oklahoma post office massacre, in the Oklahoma city bombing and in the world trade center. This book with it's pointless gratuitous violence is disturbing and horrific. The book lacks well written characters and has very poor dialogue. I highly recommend you ignore it. 'Reginald Buchanan' is hardly a P.D. James. He is only a wannabe writer. | 26,722 |
0 | 100 Words or Less | This was a case of heightened expectations crashing into the blah reality. I loved "Virgin Suicides." So, I ripped into this new novel with relish. Wow, was I disappointed.I adore Eugenides' writing, even in this novel; however, I was bored by the plot and characters. I slogged through the first 100+ pages, trying to wade past the grandparents' history, hoping that it would pick up. Nope. With each page my interest peeled away.This was so disappointing. Reluctantly I finally decided to give up. | 4,059 |
0 | Asoka | The beginning starts out a bit cheesy and seems almost home-made. Asoka's whip and the fight moves were a bit lame, but that's the action. The film was about love, the effects of imperialism, and union. The movie itself was not great, it shocked many viewers and did not meet high standards. The only real cool thing about the movie was that there really was THAT many elephants and warriors and horses. | 28,599 |
1 | Finally can hear the TV while the husband snores away. | Great product for a reasonable price. Does exactly what I need. I can watch TV in bed without disturbing anyone else in the house and I can finally hear the TV while my husband is snoring. | 33,285 |
1 | Murphy and Ackroyd at their best! | Classic movie must own, looks amazing, being remastered n all! This was obviously made when Eddie Murphy was still funny, Jamie Lee curtis looks amazing (as usuall), and Dan Ackroyd is great!!! | 27,582 |
0 | Counterfeit Batteries | DO NOT BUY! These are counterfeit batteries that do not come in Duracell packaging. They are obviously other batteries, possibly used, that are wrapped in a Duracell label. | 24,033 |
1 | We all enjoyed it | Bought this to watch with a few friends, and we all became addicted to the show. By "uncensored", it means they don't block out the swears/vulgar words that they do on regular television. If you're expecting porn you will be disappointed. All the episodes are on 3 discs with good picture and sound quality. There's also a bonus disc that includes "Before the Shore", the reunion special, Tips from Snooki and The Situation, and deleted scenes. Can't wait for Season 2! | 42,116 |
1 | Works as advertised. Great value! | This sharpener works as advertised and as reviewed on this site. It brings an incredibly sharp edge back to knives and is really very easy to use.However, the reality is (as some have pointed out) that the sharp edge does not last very long. The truth is though, it is so easy to use, who cares? Just a few swipes and you're ready to go again. I find sharpening with stones very time consuming and it does require practice and skill to do right, which is why I don't do it very often. This sharpener allows my knives to have more consistent sharp edges for longer periods of time because I'm willing to take 20 seconds every other day and give whatever knife I'm using a few swipes.Great value. | 18,087 |
1 | Compact, easily used, reasonable quality sound | Most competitors are battery-driven, requiring a separate A/C converter. This is a better deal for desktop play. | 9,574 |
0 | boo! read the book instead! | This painfully boring and mild screenplay leaves so much to be desired. It's slow. It just doesn't come close to the drama and emotion of the book. Left out are so many of the foster homes- some truly defining moments of Astrid's life. I was so excited to see the movie- but i had to watch it in 2 sittings - it just wasn't riveting in the least. A lot of the acting is forced- it seems to be they hurriedly filmed this just to get it out in a timely manner, ignoring art- except they did make an attempt to make it interesting with the "blair witch"-like cinematography (the shaky camera, etc.). Which shouldn't have been so noticable.Take the time to read the book. | 650 |
1 | it is the best album ever | this is the best trisha yearwood cd ever.she has a great voice and it shows on this album.its got beautiful songs like love alone,manancholy blue and i would've loved you anyway.not to forget inside out.each song is beautifully written with enchanting melodiiesgo and buy this album now | 45,371 |
1 | Good | I had this perfume before but I bought it more expensive than the price in here. I bought this one for a friend. She likes it but the smell is not exactly like the one I have. | 46,237 |
0 | Experiment Gone Bad | As another reviewer gave a low rating, the club head snapped on my second time testing this at the range. It was a clean hit but snapped on the shaft/head connector. From the limited use, my drive distance remained the same as my previous club but I didn't get the chance to see the benefits as everyone else reviewed. | 37,172 |
1 | Great for the price | You'll spend $10 at Target or Wal-Mart, so you might as well get them here for a bit cheaper. The quality's as good as any other ear phones I've ever used. | 42,396 |
1 | finest rock-history | this album really offers these guys on their artistical peak! fresh, perfect, innovative and great sound. seems to be one of the best live rock-concerts on tape ever ... | 36,776 |
0 | This book was lame!! | If you're looking for actual pertinent, insightful and useful information you will be disappointed (especially if you are an introspective, educated person with any degree of insight into your own functioning and disposition). | 23,090 |
0 | Wow! I love McDonalds music! | can I get a happy meal with this CD?? Pleeeze! NSync is the symbol of the fall of America. Mass Produced music is "in" these days, so what more can I say? Long live Britney Spears and N"Sync! long live the priviledged! Super Size my order, and i will have Sumner Redsto-- fries with that TEE HEE!! | 43,761 |
0 | Simon Vance lacks ability in making the story real | For anyone who loves to listen the O'brian's novels read with eloquence and great vocal characterization, go for Patrick O'Tull's version. Seriously, he is much better than Simon's insipid performance. | 37,805 |
0 | ho-hum | Preditcable dialogue structure and an irritating main character make this book nothing more than an average thriller. Smilla's angst would be more convincing to me if she was much younger. In her late thirties, she strikes me as the type that just needs to get over it and move on. Others with her strength of character have been able to rise above the tragic circumstances of their lives. | 6,203 |
1 | Classic!! | Awesome Classic! My seven year old son loves these old movies. Good wholesome fun, back when kids played outside and you had your best friends everywhere you went. | 27,993 |
0 | Marilyn Manson's worst album, but it has it's good ones | Don't get me wrong, Marilyn is a very good artist, but what happened with this cd? I have all of Marilyn's cds but once I got this one and popped it in, it made me think, where is the good Marilyn music I bought this for? This cd does have a few good songs on it, but nothing that is not on another one of his cds. I'd recommend downloading what you want off this or previewing it before purchasing it. | 19,264 |
0 | poor performance | I purchased this for my daugter's car,but after using it only a couple of times, it didnt work.It is stuck in her cassette player and is useless.quite disappointing. | 45,125 |
1 | Some pearls in it | In fact I give this book 4.5 stars. For most experienced folders, the first half models of this book cannot satisfy them. And along the rapid development of origami science these days, this book seems staying in the past time. However, there are some true gems in it. I like Montroll's Moose very much.(I think it is the best moose design so far) And I very much like the models contributed by Japenese origami nova Fumiaki Kawabata (this book is first published in 1995, and now in 1999 he is really a superstar in origami world). | 43,274 |
1 | Another excellent work by Dr. Wilson | Just like his other book on sale, "A scientific Investigation of the Old Testament", this book is an excellent defense of the historicity of the book of Daniel. Dr. Wilson takes on the task to confront the attacks made upon the book of Daniel which has stirred up so much controversy, a task to which he dedicated his life. Part of the fruits of his whole-life work is this book. Some of the subjects he deals with are:X. -Darius The Mede Not A Confusion With Darius HystaspisXI. -Darius The Mede Not A Reflection Of Darius HystaspisXII -Darius The Mede Not A Reflection (Continued)XIII. -Other Alleged Confusions of KingsXV. -Nebuchadnezzar's MadnessXVI. -Were the Edicts of the Kings Possible?XVII. -The ChaldeansExcursus on the ChaldeansXVIII. -Daniel and the Wise MenThis also is a difficult book to read, but it is really rewarding for anybody who decides to read it. Highly recommended.(E-mail: drz4007@gmail.com) | 23,537 |
1 | Haven't turned it off since we bought it! | We love our sound machine by HoMedics. In all honesty, we haven't turned it off since we bought it. The rain is my favorite and very relaxing. I wouldn't mind having another for our bedroom. :) There is an option for battery use, volume control, and timed settings. Small and very convenient for when we travel and want to take it with us. | 25,902 |
0 | Boring | While I admire the Bush presidencies, I found this book boring. It is written as a catalog of events. There seemed not to be any central theme or purpose in the writing other than that it happened. That made it about as appealing as if a cook went into the kitchen and put every available ingredient into one pot to make soup. | 5,731 |
1 | Very useful little reference | As someone who works with property and casualty insurance a lot, this has been a great reference. It appears more focused on that than life or health insurance, but certainly has some terms from all areas.Occasionally some definitions get bogged down in legalese or finance-speak, but if you read them carefully it's pretty easy to get a good idea. One thing I also love is the dictionary covers a lot of tangentially related teams that can frequently come up in an insurance context. | 46,360 |
0 | Where Are the Missing 30 Minutes? | We just received our VHS but when we pulled it out of the case, it says it's 123 min. long. I checked the ISBN and it brings up the VHS with a description of 150 min. What's going on here? I could have gotten this shortened version from the library. | 28,150 |
0 | not worth the money | this toy goes really slow.it only goes 14mph for 10 minutes.the rest of the time,it goes about 8mph.I put a custom speedometer,charged it for 2 days,and it would only go 14mph.in ten minutes it only went 7.3mph.A few days ago,i was riding it around my neighborhood and my throttle snapped off.to top it all off,yesterday my friends tire popped after hitting a rock.this thing is not worth the price.I recently got a gas pocket bike,which comes with a speedometer,and i went 34.7mph in 7 seconds!i dont have to wait 8hours to charge ,now i just give it some gas ,jump rocks,and go fast. P.S. the gas one was only 239 bucks! | 12,570 |
0 | No voice, No talent, just body | You know you're lucky you're with the "wanna-be gangsta" (puffy), it's because of him, (oh yeah you also better thank Marc Anthony for putting you up there for a while) that you are even known. You are not a good actress, and thanks to technology you sound ok, but even that can't hide the fact that you cannot sing. Go back "On the 6" and find some other talent. Do modeling at least. Your body is all you got. Plus, the lyrics to that song "Waiting for Tonight" was originally written by some other group that never made it either. How ironic, your not going to last that long either. Take my advice, do modeling! | 11,512 |
1 | What a voice! | I purchased this CD years ago before it was released by her new label and it remains a favorite. If you like mellow, acoustical jazz guitar (with a Brazilian edge) with beautiful vocals, kick back and enjoy! I've been a fan for several years and have seen her live as well. You won't be disappointed. | 4,753 |
0 | Not a Winner | This video was not nearly as compelling as the other mighty machine videos we bought. There is only one fire fighter episode on it - and it involves fire school - not fighting a real fire. It bored my three year old "vehicle crazed" grandson. | 26,824 |
0 | Waste of my Nickel and Dime | Waste of time. I don't really even want to waste my time writing a review on a book that was so boring, poorly written, narrow minded, and biased. | 37,155 |
1 | Price Pfister Bathroom Lights | These are really pretty lights for the money. Good solid contruction. One globe had a tiny chip but was able to hide it. Unfortunatly, PP appartently has stopped making the accessories (towel bar, etc.) that match the lights and faucets in the bright chrome. Free 10-day shipping was a good bargain. | 5,526 |
0 | very poor | After about 1 week of use the plastic cover would no longer latch. It doesn't appear that anything broke, but it must have worn slightly. I now have to continually apply a twisting pressure while grinding or else the grinder will stop.Also, you cannot use it repeatedly, so if you like to grind enough coffee for a few days at once, this is not the machine for you. Just doing two fine grinds in a row causes it to smoke quite a *lot* and emit a nasty odor. I am not sure how this has gotten such good reviews. It is inferior to all the basic, $10-15 models I've tried. | 34,727 |
0 | Less Than Sophomoric At Best | What a waist of time. I can not reemember the last time I saw a film with no redeeming graces. Like Mike Tysen himself (in this film)it has no finesse and bludgeons the viewer with attempts at sight humor. Don't expect memorable one liners either. In the end you will feel like your ear has been chewed on and wonder, what you are doing in the same building with this film. | 48,671 |
0 | It was ok | I personally didnt like the movie that much. Think I would of liked it better if I had not read the book, but I did. So I pretty much hated the movie, but loved the book. It was an awesome book, with a lot of suspence, and a good ending. Then I see the movie, and its totally changed! The entire second half of the book isnt even in the movie. Not a good ending at all. If you really want to know more about the firm, read the book, dont go and rent the movie. It seems like they tried to get more into the relationships of the people in the movie, where its more suspencefull in the book, dealing more with the mob and the F.B.I. I was going to go buy the movie because I loved the book some much. Good thing I didnt. | 42,272 |
0 | Frustrating to use | It takes FOREVER to get Elmo to pop out. By the time the very annoying song plays 10 times my one year old son is crying and frustrated because Elmo has STILL not popped out. It is also impossible for a small child to use because of the tiny turn handle. I can hardly grasp hold of it, let alone a child! This toy is a complete waste of time and money. | 33,366 |
1 | Let it pour! | I saw this movie in London last night and went straight to a record store to buy the sound track because I just couldn't get it out of my head. Unfortunately the cd wasn't available so I'll probably go and see the film again because it was an excellent story with great acting, dancing, humour and serious issues. | 27,375 |
1 | Read this for yourself and others | Leslie Vernick writes from experience a book that explains profoundly, yet warmly, not only the sources of depression, but steps to take in overcoming it. She does not discount the enormous feelings associated with depression, nor sugar-coat how serious depression can affect one. Rather, she leads sufferers gently to how thoughts and beliefs keep us from authentic living, causing a spiral into depression. Then she shows how crucial it is to know God's truth in order to counteract the lies we believe. Ultimately, Leslie Vernick gives hope in how depression can be used in one's life for good. As a speaker and writer I will recommend many to read this book for hope and healing.Soar Unafraid: Learning to Trust No Matter What | 28,437 |
0 | Excellent art, terrible story... | I picked this one up for the art, knowing it would be a lame story, but it truly exceeded my expectations in its terrible writing. What's the point of Superman without his powers? And why bother pitting him against something just because it's popular if you're going to have to strip him down to do it? Leave the alien stories to Batman, who actually has to outwit and out fight them. Also, everything takes place in what must be the highest traffic area of the Amazon ever...I mean, how many plots do you need to fill out this terrible book? This is slapped together garbage, pure and simple. Great artwork for the most part, though. Gave it an extra star just for that. | 41,707 |
1 | Remington EP1000 Women's Smooth & Silky Hair Removal System | I've always hated plucking because its so painful and you can only do one at a time. W/ this thingy, it was more pain, but more gain. I liked it and I would recommend it, but its def. not painless. | 39,128 |
1 | Brilliant speculative science | This book is of incomparable value in adding to your collection of works designed to stimulate imaginative ways of looking at the universe and of freeing one's point of view from conventional thinking. As a springboard to highly imaginative speculation about the nature of physical reality, Tom Pawlicki has journeyed alone to places that are valid and worthwhile, where conventional thinkers rarely go. | 36,705 |
0 | This is One Movie That Should Get "Lost" | I had high hopes for this film, but when I walked away from it I was more than a little disappointed. The film starts off well enough, but after an hour or so, things get really hokey and the story never really seems to connect. The acting is terrible, the screenplay needs work, and the ending leaves you with an empty feeling. Even die hard fans of the show will be disappointed because the movie isn't too ture to the series. The only thing they have in common is the characters names are the same. Bottom Line, skip right over it at the video store. | 20,133 |
0 | Half disappointed | I am an avid Hank Snow fan and have many CDs and previously cassettes and lps. The first portion is the worst example of Hank Snow. The first songs are old radio recordings and one can barely recognize the singer as Hank Snow. There are very few Snow recordings that I don't care for but some of these are not pleasant to the ear. The early recordings are like hearing your next door neighbor who can't quite sing. Truly part of the CD is that bad. I wanted to purchase Sammy Morgan's Gin on CD but I should have ordered another Bear family set. Half of the CD is wonderful. The CD is a Bear family release. As a collector one might want to own the early recordings done in 1937 and up. | 23,683 |
0 | product not received | Unfortunately still not received my product.hopefully it will be send as soon as possible.graciously | 39,068 |
0 | Only Lasted 5 Months | I loved, loved, loved this espresso machine until it stopped heating after only about 5 months of use. It was perfect in every way after I got the hang of espresso-making. I used it for 1, sometimes 2 espressos most days, taking off a month or so when I experimented with cold-brewed coffee. After reading the problems other folks had with DeLonghi's customer service I'm considering my options, but they don't include another Delonghi purchase. | 29,763 |
0 | LAME! | This might be possibly the worst book ever written by Stephen King. It was boring, slow, and could have used a little bit more excitement. I urge you not to buy this book, but just go the library and see how bad it is. I figured it made the best seller list by Stephen King buying a couple thousand copies of his own book! | 20,292 |
1 | Captivated but not Captured | This video is a rarely spoken truth that will set out future course --- sad. Can we change the course? | 38,325 |
0 | Paper thin cheap plastic worthless piece of garbage shield | Bought as a Christmas gift for a three year old. This has to be the poorest quality item I have ever purchased through Amazon. It would have been an improvement if it had been made of cardboard. Floppy doesn't begin to describe the cheap "plastic" that this "Deluxe" shield is made out of. Do not buy this trash. | 6,258 |
1 | big boy knife | knife has a nice feel to it and holds and edge for some time without needing resharpening. I use this knife everyday. It compares to some of the more expensive knifes I own at a fraction of the cost. | 36,463 |
0 | Another Disgraceful "Tribute" Cd!! | When will this madness end? This cd is worst than bad, its HORRIBLE. First of all, I couldn't understand what these "vocalists" was singing about most of the time. Second, the production is so cheap and lame I actually laughed. Third, these singers make Beyonce sound like Aretha or somebody like that. That's how bad they are. Avoid this and other "tribute" albums, unless you need an expensive coaster. | 36,269 |
0 | Really??? | Completely unbelievable story. The characters were completely opposite of each other and never would have attracted in real life. If you have nothing else to do I say watch this movie. | 20,147 |
0 | It All Went up in Smoke! | I got the Presto popcorn popper as a Christmas present. The very first time (which was also the last time) I used the popper, it started to give a light hum, which was not the usual noise most poppers make. I figured that was just the way it was made, until a few seconds later smoke started coming out of the unit. I was not impressed! Don't buy this product!!! | 3,056 |
1 | Great Flash Bracket | This is a great flash bracket it works well with various light modifiers. It's adjustable height is great. The only issue is you don't have a rotatable base for horizontal vs. vertical shoots. | 5,614 |
1 | A fantastic band at its prime, delivering top-notch songs | I bought this album as an LP many years ago after seeing WPA live at Club Soda in Montreal, Canada, and being mightily impressed. The album takes its sensability from the Clash and works it into an Aussie context. Each song is an original, featuring storytelling that strikes home. And they've aged well, at that. These guys are true song-smiths, and they pack a wallop in the studio, as well as on stage. | 24,401 |
1 | Heart, Soul, and a Voice from Heaven! | I am still amazed at the beauty, clarity, and purity of Josh Groban's voice. His phrasing and annunciation are above reproach. All of those qualities combined with an eclectic offering of songs makes for a most delightful CD. The thing I'd like to thank Josh the most for, though, is that he took the high road. Instead of offering an album laden with vocal gymnastics (and he surely could have done so) he constantly surprised me with his choices. Josh Groban--a class act in the midst of all of these vulgar, classless, and talentless people calling themselves artists. | 23,436 |
1 | Her Favorite | We have about 6 Barney tapes and my daughter thinks this is the best one (and so do I). The thing I like about it is that it's different than the TV show. They actually go on an adventure. There aren't all the characters, (just Barney and 4 kids) but the camera angles aren't from 100 ft back like the live tapes. One other thing to realize is if you buy really long tapes (70 min +) they are likely to break much faster than the short tapes. This is a factor because our daughter has probably seen this tape about 40 times. I give it five stars. | 35,058 |
1 | Sturdy and well shielded | I bought this to replace a cheap cable that was used when my satellite was installed. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a coax cable, since I'm hoping to upgrade some components and use superior connections soon.Conversely, I didn't want to buy something too cheap and make anything worse.I chose this one because it appeared to be a good cable at a decent price, and it is.The cable feels well made and the connectors feel sturdy and tight. It's a good cable. | 4,098 |
1 | 7th heaven is amazing | 7th heaven is amazing! I've always loved it. Buying the 9th season was a good choice because I want to own the whole series. 7th heaven makes me laugh, cry, and cherish each moment. | 29,314 |
1 | Terrific Thin-Ribbed Rubber For Your Use! | If you want the thinnest and most sensitive condom on the market for your mutual pleasure, then wrap your sheath in this specially designed ribbed and ultra light condom, guaranteed to make both your partner and you glad to discover the difference of an ultra-thin rubber that protects you at the same time it enhances the natural feeling for she and he. It is designed to fit especially close to the shaft of the male, so he loses none of the sensitivity often assocaited with wearing a more conventional condom. So, when you care enough to ride the range in style and comfort, choose this ultra-light and lightly lubricated one. Enjoy! | 48,081 |
1 | Wong and Wong: Inspirational and Helpful | Wong and Wong's First Days Of School is a must for any teacher seasoned or new. This will mostly serve the new teacher in inspiring and preparing them for the first days of school. There is advice and technique that will save time and frustration making class fun for the students and for the new teacher. | 29,200 |
1 | useful for practitioners | This book helped explain many of the paradoxes I had observed ofwell intentioned knowledge sharing efforts not bearing any fruit.As an independent consultant, I find that I can immediately putinto practise many of the ideas presented in this book in myengagements. I also found the practitioner focus box very usefulwhen I want to quickly refresh and refer back to the key learnings. | 35,080 |
0 | Not a Skinny Tie | I ordered 3 of these ties from the seller "Private Island." Although the description says "2 inch" tie, the ties I received were big, fat, 4 inch ties, as measured across near the bottom of the tie. If you're looking for a skinny tie, you might want to check with the seller before you buy. I am returning mine. | 36,364 |
0 | Rather disappointing | I had high expectations for this book, but I was disappointed. It concentrated too much on digital systems, rather than broadening the definition of noise to cover the natural environment. I lost interested in the last 1/3 of the book, and couldn't wait to finish. | 14,990 |
1 | Simply a masterpiece | Let me say that this album was my introduction to the Chemical Brothers. I'd seen "setting sun" on MTV and picked up the album. For some reason I didn't listen to it for about two years. One day I decided to give it ago and over the next several months concluded that every single song is excellent. I normally do not listen to music like this at all, but this album really is top-notch. | 21,608 |
0 | Cheaper than original, broke in just a few uses. | I had a plastic version of this for many years and it worked great. I broke it and it was my fault. I had no problem purchasing a second one and I thought the steel version would be an upgrade. I was wrong. They changed the plastic spinner top to a much cheaper non-flexible plastic. It broke the same way the other reviewers said theirs broke. This is not the same quality product I purchased before, do not buy this item. I wouldn't buy the smaller one either, it has the same lightweight plastic non-flexible lid. | 49,393 |
1 | Everything You Wanted to Know About Johnny is in This Book! | Okay....maybe not *everything* but there is a whole lot of wonderful information packed into this book. Stephen Cox has done a great job of compiling so many annecdotes and facts about Johnny and his "Tonight Show" years. On top of that, he even scored a telephone interview with Carson himself, no small accomplishment! With Johnny's passing, this book takes on a deeper importance and this effort will not disappoint! | 44,748 |
0 | Stay Away | Don't waste your money on these, they don't work. I've used these 3 different times and 2 of the girls got pregnant. These things cost me over $500 a month because of child support. WORST $15 I've ever spent. I think the fact that they are thinner than others makes them easier to break. I'm not big so I know it didn't break because of size. | 49,857 |
0 | Rated PG??? I DON'T THINK SO. BEWARE TEACHERS! | This movie is rated PG. I previewed it the day before showing it to my 7th graders and it has female nudity--female without her top on--full view of both boobs. Thanks a lot! I can't show this to my kids in class. What the heck. I purchased it for nothing--unusuable. | 44,941 |
0 | Bad | Interesting concept of no electric, TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE acting. the lead actress is TERRIBLE. Unbelieveable story line.... the world has no electric and we are going to follow a teenager to find her brother? who cares! | 8,196 |
1 | Goodnight Mood | This is a great book for small children, toddlers. The kids are drawn to the book and they can point to objects in the book when prompted by the parent. Both of my children love this book. | 26,944 |
1 | Great Movie...Excellent in Blu Ray | I LOVE this movie. I am disappointed that part 2 was such a BAD movie.This is a must have. | 12,907 |
1 | Action! | I enjoyed this terminator series reboot, very gritty and in general good action scenes. Plot was a little weak and the terminator actor could have done better but I suppose its probably tough to try and act as a machine :) | 17,563 |
1 | We love this wagon! | We got this as a birthday gift for my son's one year birthday. It was very easy to assemble, and as soon as my son saw it, he immediately went to play with it. He LOVES the wagon! He loves to play with the wheels, and he can sit in the wagon and we push him around, and he loves it so much he doesn't want to get out! He does not walk by himself yet, but he can stand up & walk around holding unto things, he tries to walk holding unto the wagon but the wagon goes real fast and he'd lose his balance so I have to help him. But as he walks better, I am sure he is going to run arounde with the wagon. And he can put all his toys and stuffed animals in the wagon. The blocks have a smell when you take them out, but just make sure you wipe them well and let them ventilate. | 13,250 |
0 | wrong picture product. | I ordered what the picture showed....... but received the "Smart Blend" type.The reason I ordered the type I saw in the picture was because our cats had a bad reaction to the Smart Blend type. I don't know why. but they were throwing up and had very loose bowels. We still had some of the other Tuna and Salmon dry food and found no more problems. I could not find the old type in the stores and that is why I ordered from this picture. I wasted $15.00. | 18,715 |
1 | Gripping tale, but lousy maps | This would have been a five-star book, had the maps not been so poorly presented. Of the three maps printed in the book, none of them have a scale, which is the cardinal sin of cartography. Ten miles? A hundred miles? Beats me. Also, while the map of all of Antarctica understandably does not have a north arrow (when you're at the South Pole, every direction is north), one of the smaller maps has south as up while the third has north as up, which is needlessly confusing.These quibbles aside, the story is fascinating and heartbreaking at the same time. Saying "never have so many done so much for so little" sounds cliched, but it's true. What a horrible exercise in futility, although of course at the time the men did not know their efforts were for naught. Overall, I highly recommend this book and just wish the maps could be corrected. | 35,846 |
1 | Great Show | Outstanding story development, Great acting, Great Screenplay, Great directing and it is more than what anyone could ask for in a televised show about a hero. The first season had me hooked. I recommend this show for people who like supernatural adventures even though this show isn't quite supernatural, but more on a crime scene type of show. It has some originality. | 25,649 |
0 | DO NOT BUY THIS HEATER | This heater is a waste of money. I had it on high for over 2 hours with the door closed and it only increased the temperture in the room by two degrees. I will be returning this item. | 13,641 |
1 | Forget the ending: read it for the joy of the journey! | Don't read this book to find out how it ends. Read it for the pure enjoyment of reading. One thing I love about Barbara Kingsolver's books is that I can relate to her main characters' solitude of mind and intellect. Love blossoms from loneliness. Hope blossoms from striving day to day. You'll find yourself yearning for the love interests of the two main characters as if they were your own. The book has a certain harmony to it much like the harmony of life: things are often left unresolved, people cope in the face of unexpected change, and nature continues oblivious to what's going on in my own little piece of life. When I finished reading this book last year, I was disgusted with the ending. But, a year later, I look back and realize that the book could have ended no other way. | 42,662 |
1 | Carex Overbed Table | This table is a nice size & very sturdy for over the bed uses. It is also is easily adjustable to different heights & has small indentations for a cup and things like pecils, etc., to keep them from rolling off. It was very useful beside my bed after surgery. However, it must be disassembled for storage. I was disappointed that it did not just fold down & did not come apart easily to store. | 26,195 |
0 | Fallacy in the Name of Hitory | This American (if this human being is an American) has not been taught the truth. The world is full of fads and fallacies and doesn't know it. The Rape of Nanking is your new clothes. You do not know your own Holocaust and frown on other nation's crime even if it is a fabricated one.Chinese Nationalist Party started co-operation with Chinese Communist Party on anti-Japanese propaganda in 1937. They recruited eye-witnesses of "Nanking Masscre" for the preparation of International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE), but very few applicants appeared and many people were quiet or even denied the massacre.I was taught a lie? No, this article appears in Chinese documentation reported to the court of IMTFE. | 5,193 |
0 | Unrealistic, cheapo movie... | Not exactly a high-budget blockbuster here, despite the three high-profile main actors. Rebecca DeMornay plays a complex character who seems to be juggling toughness, street smarts and independence with a vulnerability and sensitivity to the idea of relationships. Interesting enough, but then she just ends up being DUMB in the end. In fact, the whole end is dumb, with one eventful (but predictable) scene and the rest of the movie just fizzling out--blah. Keifer Sutherland plays the macho main role who handily takes on five gangbangers at once with a crowbar (and conveniently for him, none of the gangbangers had any knives or guns to defend themselves with against the 160 lb. businessman Sutherland character--yeah, right). He would have been wasted in a flash in real life, c'mon!Just a pretty lame movie, overall. The story was overall pretty good, but some of the more farfetched scenes and the weak ending just kind of ruined it for me. | 32,054 |
0 | Outdated | This might have been a very helpful book at the time it was published, but it is outdated now and most of the web-sites no longer exist. It is just an exercise in futility, so please, don't waste your time or money. | 42,499 |
0 | Is Clancy loosing his magic touch? | This is a very weak thriller, without a good argument.The story does not hold properly together.Tom Clancy must be loosing his touch.It would be better if he could stop for a while to preparare of of manificent stories of the past, but he should not write again such an uninteresting book. | 27,051 |
1 | Mastermind | Mastermind is a game that I have played for over 30 years, it is a classic. Easy to learn and keeps the mind challenged and sharp at all times. The only negative is the colored pegs are not as consistent as in years past, the new game that I recently purchased had a few colored pegs that didn't fit the holes that they were meant for. The game is still the same but the quality of the materials has dropped. | 31,824 |
0 | Whole Wheat Bredsticks | This product is not as good as the brand that you carried prior to this (Fattorie & Pandea). These aren't as crispy and the taste is not that of the whole wheat flavor that makes it much better than plain white bread sticks, these really have not much taste at all. | 15,441 |
0 | turbo airplane | The item arrived quickly, but is not very sturdy for kids to play with a lot. Would have loved for it to be a bit bigger & tougher. My sons liked it OK, but wouldn't purchase it again. The rubber on the tires comes off very easily & is dangerous for kids to swallow. The pilot doesn't stay on very well either. | 14,244 |
0 | Make Up Your Facts as You Go Along, Why Don't You? | Yes. This is strewn with errors like a mine-field is with mines. Fortunately, the errors are easier to spot and less lethal.Yes. The prose style is rambling, chatty and almost unreadable. Did he derive his style from instant messenger postings?I contribute nothing by hammering the poor man when he is down, even if deservedly so.I just wanted to second the motion, which is a few screens back if you use the default "newest first" sort, by Andrea Loughry that anyone interested in this topic would be well served to read The Doomsday Book by Connie Willis. That suggested itself to me while reading (I mean "slogging through") Norman's little book and what to my wondering eyes should appear but Ms. Loughry's review making the same point. Among other treasured ideas I derived from Ms. Willis' book was that the Plague contributed to The Reformation. Please go buy it now. | 40,188 |
1 | baby or no baby thats the question | exactly what we needed and expected thanks for the wonderful product and the great quality i would strongly sugest this to all my firends | 20,467 |
1 | Voices from a pastoral past | While you can certainly buy music with better production (these songs were produced "on the spot" in sometimes less than ideal conditions),better musicianship and more competent vocals, you would be hard pressed to find a contemporary collection that is more heartfelt and stirring as the one offered here. This music embodies our past ~ the roots from which grew blues and bluegrass. The "artists" represented on this CD are just plain folks that learned their instruments and songs from family and friends,passed down from the preceding generations. When taken within the context of the collection each selection is a gem on its own. Among these gems, many have a rare and haunting beauty. You should buy this CD if you have even a passing interest in American roots music | 27,861 |
0 | Nanopod | Zune, Ipod, other, all junk. When will someone come out with a media player that doesn't require poorly written, intrusive software to be installed on your computer? Here's a concept for the engineers designing these things: Plug your media player into your computer, it shows up as an external hard drive, copy and paste the media files you want from your computer to the media player, go listen to your music and enjoy.. It's really that simple, there is no need for anything more. Why is this such a difficult concept for Apple, Microshaft and others? While I'm making requests, how about a replaceable battery, maybe even a replaceable hard drive? They keep making these disposable pieces of junk because people keep buying them. Stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Refuse to spend your money until a company creates a product worth spending your hard earned dollars on. | 27,554 |
0 | One of the STUPIDEST books I ever read! ZERO stars | First off this book was published in the 80's. They changed the cover to take advantage of the 50 Shades obsession. Its 30 years old! Of course nothing would improve the story if it had been written recently either. This book is about all the princes and princess who walk around naked, with their hands behind their necks, get spanked non stop, have to act like horses, have fake phallus's inserted as they prance, get punished by being hung upside down for all to see everything...WTF????The story is absolutely stupid and absurd. There are 3 chapters explaining how one prince came to be a captive., Really...who cares? Its so bizarre I was just shaking my head in dismay while reading.The book is consistent. The ending is abrupt, and pointless....just like the book.Don't waste your time. | 22,064 |
1 | one of the best shows i have ever seen | i love this show so much. i will dedicate weekends to Dead Like Me marathons. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, it makes me feel better about death, even though i know its just a pretend show. i will never understand why this show was cancelled. there is something for everyone to relate to in this show. | 25,845 |
