DONT LET THE PICTURE FOOL YA!
No tackle box guide, no knot tying card. Only 4 small lures, which are worth $20, BUT IF YOU ARE BUYING IT FOR THE PACKAGE, NOT WORTH IT. I bought it for the tackle box guide, since shipping was gonna make the guide @$14 total, figured why not spend an extra $10 and get 4 lures and a knot card. Fooled me with the pic. and description.

Thorough, yet approachable introduction to 802.11b security
The authors have done an admirable job in making this complex topic approachable by readers with a basic understanding of networks. The coverage of cryptography was just enough to support the discussions on WEP cracking. I particularly enjoyed the step-by-step description of actual attacks. The overview of existing tools was also very good, though I detected a certain bias towards Microsoft solutions. Overall, this great book has earned an important place on my bookshelf. Kudos.

Paint rubs off
We bought these two years ago and I've thrown out all but one. The paint on the back, if it gets the least bit warm or wet will stick to our countertop and wear off. Not dishwasher safe either. Too bad, it was a nice idea.

I enjoyed the author's blog so much that I went out and got her book. Sad to say it was not as genuine, funny, touching, or engaging as her on-line writing. too bad!

One of Janet's best!
Although I think The Velvet Rope is the best Janet album, Damita Jo is by far better than All For You. Where The Velvet Rope was more introspective, Damita Jo is just all out fun. It sort of reminds me of the janet album. This album has a great feel about it and will be in my cd player non stop for a few months. I LOVE YOU JANET!!!

Keep looking for a better model.
I found it hard to use. There's a tiny button that has to be pushed in at the same time you push the larger button that controls the blades. You need both hands to operate this knife.

First time I ever tried Billy Blanks' Tao-Bo and I loved it!
I had always been interested in trying Billy Blanks' Tao-Bo series but had never gotten around to it. I bought this video and gave it a try and I totally loved it! The moves are challenging and you get a good workout without it being too exhausting. I finished feeling energized but also like I had really worked. Billy is very encouraging and really got me moving. I'm going to buy the older videos!

I remembered Sinatra as better ...
I guess I'm the only one here who really disliked this. I remembered Sinatra fondly from childhood, so bought this CD, but took it off halfway through. It's not that it wasn't jazzy enough for me ... I just hated how he starts the note flat and slides up to it - and then, even when he was finally dead on pitch, the quality of his voice was displeasing. I'm listening to Andy Williams now - at least he sounds as if he knows how to sing.

Great Review of W ll Africa
I think the series "Battlefield" is one of the best ever reviews of WW ll. Like all of them, this one covers the Leaders, the Equipment, the Men, as well as the battles. The main battle coered here is the last battle of El Alamein. The DVD however, covers the period from the beginning of the war in Africa until the end where the Axis is expelled. Keeps you on the edge of your seat even though you know how everthing ends.

Great for air circulation but weary about power.
This fan looks great, works well, and is very quiet. The breeze feature auctually simulates a outdoor breeze and it save space. Since I have only used it in the fall weather, I don't know how powefull it will be in the dead of summer when the weather is extremely hot. In addition, since you can't adjust the height, you have to be within the height vacinity in order to fully appreciate the air flow. This is not a problem for me because I use it my living and I am usually sitting down which puts me within the height vacinity of the fan. Despite these drawbacks, I do like the way the fan works and I am satisfied with my purchase.

Rugrats in Paris
It's pretty good but two of the games are IMPOSSIBLE! So don't bother going into OOey Gooey World to get your golden tickets. I got mine with the other games and the 4 puzzles(collect 120 red tickets-30 for each) and play those. Now this game is supposed to sell to the 4 to seven year olds, but many of the games are too hard for them. I can't even do the OOey Gooey world games and I'm an adult. I'd say they missed the boat on this game.

Scracthed discs abound
Received item in securely packaged box and was surprised to find that about half the stack had damaged discs. The outside perimeter (about .25 to .50 inches) of the damaged discs were were noticealby scratched. I just tried burning and reading a test disc (using Nero DVD Speed) and it failed with a read error. Hopefully, the rest of the stack won't be as bad.Don't know who is to blame for the damage: manufacturing or shipping. Hopefully, this was just a bad "set", but I'll be buying my discs "locally" from now on.

Pretty good book
I really enjoyed this book as a "fun read". I think it could have been better but it is for younger readers so it's pretty good. I learned a lot about how to care for cats and kittens because as you read about Mandy caring for these kittens you also learn how to care for kittens. The vocabulary is for younger kids so if an eight year old were to read it, they to would have been able to learn what I did.

Wusthof makes a quality product that's easy to use
How much needs to be said about a knife sharpener? This one works exceptionally well, is easy to hold and control while in use, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. It probably isn't an item you'll find in a professional kitchen, it's very well suited for your kitchen. REMEMEMBER: A DULL KNIFE IS A DANGEROUS THING!

Nice Presentation Folder
These Smead Slash Pocket Folders are great to organize and distribute documents that I did not want to staple or drill holes in. Made a very impressive and sturdy presentation, when I made the cover sheet align with the right margin, and the colors are truly bright and bold (unlike some folders in washed out colors). Using this type of folder instead of a regular file folder is a must if you do not want your papers falling out, wrinkled sheets and bent corners on documents. A place for your business card on the front completes this pocket folder.

Bought several of these shirts for my hubby to wear for work. Laundered these first, very little shrinkage, soft fabric, color fast. We silk screened this with my husband's employer's name, looks good! Very good price! Gave only four stars because shipping was very slow.

The BLADE broke in pieces making SOUP!
This machine sounds and look good at first blush. But when the blades BREAK, leaving shards in vegetable soup, this machine becomes a danger. After owning this and using it for about 8 months, I used it for 4 courses of a dinner party. When the roasted (quite soft, almost overcooked) vegetables were processed, one blade broke off in 2 pieces, and the remaining blade lost the tip. Shards of this machine were found in my soup! Luckily, I clean as I cook, so tragedy was averted, and we ate pizza, after cooking for 3 hours, with $... worth of food. Never again a Cuisinart!

Font is Unbelievably Small
I'm sure the story is good; most of the reviewers have endorsed it enthusiastically. I'll never know, however, at least as long as I own this particular printing of the book, because the font is unbelievably small. Arial 7 is a close approximation.

More of a Coffee Table Book
This is a nice book if you just want to display it in your living room. If you are a serious knitter, this is not for you. Most of the scarves are done in the garter stitch and the only things that change is the type of yarn and the amount of yarn to cast on. Nice book to receive as a gift - not worth buying

Junk
I purchased 3 of these scanners because it received such a great review. I can only describe the product as junk. To attempt to use it I had to "rig" the scanner by disconnecting and connecting it before using it and sometimes during use because it would freeze. Also the sound card had to be removed from the computer.Assistance from Microtek was of no use and they themselves did not know how to deal with the problems.If the scanner could actually work without all the hitches then the quality of scanning and the various programs that it came with would be of great use. I only know this as a result of using another scanner with the software that the Microtek came with.The 3 Microtek scanners are now serving as very expensive paperweights after 3 months of trying everything short of magic to get them to work on various computers in the office.

What happened to honesty and truth?
Let's be honest and admit that I'm not a traitor to our country when I call myself a liberal, support maintaining our Constitutional rights, and demand that those rights be made available to all our citizens. And yes dammit, I am a card-carrying member of the ACLU, and proud of it! Aren't you? Everybody who values our Constitution is already a member or should get busy and join.If she'd put her efforts into doing something beneficial, I wouldn't define her as either hysterical or smugly self-serving. I'll bet she has never read The Constitution since she claims that the ACLU is leading the, "Conspiracy", that will destroy the U.S.A. Please show me, when does she tell the truth?Some people could better serve their country by keeping their mouths, or in this case their laptops, closed.

I'm not a Sigur Ros fan, but I have a great respect for their music. Both Cd's are good, the disspaointed was the Blu Ray. There's two parts, one from the old times and one newest. The old one has a awful video quality but good audio (DTS HD). The newest has better video qualityI (as everybody expects) but the sound is just 2.0 pcm!!! I really can't understand why we can not has a great video and great audio?? Why?? Anyways the performances are right.

Twila Paris's best album yet-wonderful lyrics,great sound
This is one of those cd's that you hear once and want to play over and over. Twila Paris continues to display such a clear, sweet, voice that is so unique. The selections of songs are a good blend of upbeat rhythms and soulful ballads. The title cut, True North is one of my favorites. This music would appeal to almost anyone, but to those who appreciate the Christian message, it is an absolute MUST for your collection.

Better off with a pocket dictionary
This is like a synopsis of a pocket dictionary for English and Portuguese like Collins Gem or Oxford Mini but gives you much less. The vocabulary is quite limited, does not go beyond Clothes, Food, and the other headings. There are some basic sentences but most of what you want to say is left out. For the sentences it would be better a phrase book or even better a proper course. If what you want is vocabulary at your finger tips then the best is a pocket dictionary. I have taken this vocabulary book back to the shop and exchanged it for a pocket dictionary. You spend the same and get much more for it.

DON'T BUY THIS JUNK
I BOUGHT TWO OF THESE SWING ARM LAMPS. THEY WEREN'T THE CHEAPEST AVAILABLE, BUT I THOUGHT THAT I WAS BUYING SOMETHING SERVICEABLE THAT WOULD SERVE THE PURPOSE I HAD FOR THEM. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY WERE THE CHEESIEST, POOREST QUALITY THINGS THAT I HAVE BOUGHT IN MY MEMORY. I LATER BOUGHT A SIMILAR LAMP FROM HOME DEPOT FOR THE SAME PRICE WHOSE QUALITY WAS FAR BETTER. I WOULD HAVE RETURNED THE LAMPS, BUT DIDN'T WANT TO GO THROUGH THE TROUBLE AND AGGRAVATION INVOLVED. THE ONE LAMP I DID INSTALL IS PRACTICALLY FALLING OFF THE WALL NOW,TWO MONTHS LATER.

Definitely a waste of money
I bought this wanting to see my son in a rear-facing carseat. First, I couldn't properly secure it with either the latch or velcro. Since we have a jeep grand cherokee and he was in the middle of the backseat there was no place to attach it. I finally managed to rig something up though but after just a short time the mirror surface was fogging and unclear. I certainly couldn't see him in the tiny rearview mirror attachment.

The movie is very good because some parts are exellent but some times their is some parts of the movie that are not good . But the movie is good because Jeff Spicoli makes almost all the good scenes of the movie.My favorite actor is Jeff Spicoli because he is related to some teenagers life.The movie is good but the movies of today are better because their is more action , their are some better actors.IN conclusion Fast Times at Ridgemont High is one of the best movie I have ever seen but the movies of today are better!

a real soldier boy tale
Well I think the graphics of blu ray,the plot, the bad guy were all done excellently. However the story was very sad, (spoil alert!), captain america loses his best friend and later wakes up to find he was asleep seventy years but his foe was sucked into the deep dark voids of space only to return at the end of the avengers movie. Under normal circumstances i would give this three stars but since it was a "Army film" it really captured the sadness and loss war causes. Overall a good buy and the blu ray is well worth the excess money.

I always trust Edgar Cayce
I recently had my aura photo-captured with equipment that Edgar Cayce briefly mentions in his book. The psychic photographer had a copy of this book. Briefly scanning it, I knew I needed to purchase it in order to have a better understanding of my auras. It was the last writing of Edgar Cayce before he passed away. It's a brief, quick read, but very insightful. I wish it had been more in-depth which is the reason for not giving it 5 stars.

Almost Perfect
I had to order this to replace a part on my 01 Town and Country. If you look it up on the website, it says this is for up to 2000, but it was what my 2001 had on it.Two issues with the hanger: The bolt they supply isn't long enough, and at least for my muffler, the strap itself is shaped wrong. The hangers are in the correct location, but you're not going to get this thing to sit nice and flush on your muffler without a lot of bench bending.I went out to my local hardware store and picked up a 4 inch bolt, and 3 inch probably would have been okay. I used picture hanging wire to hold the two ends close enough together while I installed the bolt, then cut it and removed it once the bolt was in place to start tightening. Otherwise, it would have felt like I needed three hands.Anyway, the part works, it's just not exactly perfect for my vehicle's muffler. No complaints, plus cheap next day shipping thanks to Amazon Prime was a lot quicker than my local parts store could have gotten it.

Exorcisms R Us
On the good side, these shows are very well done, with surprisingly good actors re-enacting the stories. The effects are sufficiently spooky too. My only problem - do the hauntings all have to be evil and demonic? And they all start out the same - oblivious families moving into abandoned homes and finding out that they are haunted. Even though they are terrified out of their minds, they insist on staying in these demon-infested dwellings. I love a good ghost story as much as most do, but it's like they purposely showcased homes that have evil and demonic entities. If I had known that, I would not have bought these DVD's. So maybe my purpose here is just to warn some that if you would rather avoid viewing strictly demonic and evil spirited hauntings, don't buy this. Stick with Ghost Hunters. For those of you who get their thrill from watching exorcisms and people being terrified out of their minds, buy this and have a party.Oh, by the way, mine had narration. :)

A Good Album (With A Different Style)
Released four years ago, this album would have done much better on the charts. Marigold Sky suffered from the same fate as its predecesor (as will their next album in all likelyhood), it was released way too late after the Change Of Season album. It also had a much harder edge the previous albums. The majority of the stand-out tracks are on the first half of this CD. "Romeo Is Bleeding" is an excellent song, but fans who like the Rock & Soul blend Hall & Oates are famous for will find the song a little harsh & heavy on the electric guitar. "Love Out Loud," "Out Of The Blue," and "Hold On To Yourself," follow the same pattern, but to a lesser degree. "The Sky Is Falling," "Throw The Roses Away," and "Promise Ain't Enough" also stand out and remind me a lot of classic ballads like Sara Smile.

flimsy doors
For cheap discs, these do the job, but don't count on them to last. Under heavy-use (everyday in & out), the metal doors get loose and bend outwards. I've actually had quite a few come that way...just loose. I now have gone through all of the discs, removed the doors, bent them into a tighter shape, replaced them and they work much better. As for the actual media, they give quite a few TOC errors and have more bad sections than desired...not too hot. I wish amazon carried Lumina, Victor, or Sony ES...those are great.

Really regret spending $100 on this thing. Looks great but whistle is weak sounding, handle stays hot, risk burning yourself when you have to flip the spout open, and (best of all) it leaks water all over when pouring. Pretty much fails at everything besides looks.

This little thing is so effective that it saved my day. I tried to get rid of food born moth in the house with electric wire net racket. Boy they stink after a while. It seemed a loosing battle until a friend mentioned this works. Does not look the best inside the house - have to take the down when there is a party, but it works. I started from buying from Lowes, but recently use this brand from Amazon. Maybe they are the same brand, but it surely an low cost, effective way of controlling the food moth inside the house.

This movie it's very cruel in the plot, where a women are taken to a convent for their "sins". There they are treated very bad, with no respect, and to put them away of the society.

Not as easy as it sounds
The filler is well made and good quality but I had a hard time making the capsules.Separating tops and bottoms to put in the filler, spreading the material equally to fill the capsules and tamping that down took more time than manually doing the job with each capsule. The cleanup after capping was an unexpected added chore.Personally I will go back to doing the job by hand, one capsule at a time.

... why'd you silence kim?
Beautiful, that's the only way to describe this.Less upbeat than Surfer or Bossanova. Hey is amazing, but kim makes the record. The production is pretty, pastel shades rather than surfers' clear black and white, bossa's shimmering colours, and trompe's polarized gleaminess, but, unfortunately dave's drums sound false, he's one of the best drummers in the world, why make him sound like an EMU-drumulator? That's my only complaint.Or for those who haven't heard the pixies, they're:Far better than nirvana, or any imitators, the pixies trick was the 'soft start, loud chorus' stolen from 'petty theif lout' by the fall. the pixies are sort of like a slower, generally less [good] husker du. only better than the husker.p.s. buy all pixies LP's and about 15-20 of the fall's ones.

This album is amazing. It is a great combination of Janet's hits. Janet is an amazing artist and I love the songs that she picked for this album. From the sultry and sensual song Twenty Foreplay to the upbeat and romantic song When I Think of You all the songs are absolute perfection. There are other great songs like Rythym Nation, Runaway and That's the Way Love Goes. If you are a diehard Janet Jackson fan then this album is for you. Go out and get it now. Janet Jackson is an amazing singer, dancer, songwriter and a true diva.

They Are Not Forgotten
Any pro wrestling DVD is a snapshot of a particular moment in time, with a "main event" storyline possibly stale before the material reaches the stores. But these events chronicled on two DVD's are much more than the typical releases...or matches.The talent may appear in character, but they toss the soap opera-styled scripts aside for these special events, while reminding fans at home of the sacrifices from the men and women in the military. The matches are from the 2003 and 2004 tours, along with bonus material that includes tour highlights from the WWE program, Confidential.The performers include Undertaker, Hardcore Holly, Kurt Angle, Eddie Guerrero, John Cena and Big Show, along with several of the WWE Divas. The set is oftentimes difficult to find, but is one of the best releases in the bulky DVD catalog of the company.

Ugh!
I have owned Timex for decades. My current, beloved Timex has reached the end of its time (no matter how often new batteries go in), so I bought this one to replace it.First, I had to have a grown man smash the plastic holder that contained instructions.Then I read the instructions to have links removed to size it, which is surprising since I've never had to do that. First myself & a friend in construction could not find a tool small enough. So I took it to a machine shop where they found special bits small enough to push out a microscopic screw in order to remove a link. HOURS later, 2 broken bits, and 3 grown men, still no screw removed. The instructions warn that they are intentionally difficult to remove, but this is absolutely ridiculous.So, there it sits, unreturnable without package and unwearable without an adjustment.Don't bother with this one.

Abysmal
Clyde Prestowitz must be one of those Americans when he goes abroad he sits at his host's dinner table and nods approvingly when his fellow countrymen are described as backwards, provincial and not sophisticated enough to understand the world outside of the U.S. Why do I say this? Because Rogue Nation reads exactly like what you would expect from a sneering critic of the U.S., except this time the criticism comes from someone who could be considered part of the establishment.Rogue Nation has less to do with America's alleged policy blunders than it is a chance for Prestowitz to grind his axe and repeat line by line the same silliness the anti-war movement spewed for much of this year. Why is the world against the U.S.? Why because it failed to ratify the Kyoto Accord and Americans support Israel blindly, among other infractions. There are so many strawmen, dead-ends and pointless digressions in Rogue Nation that I'm appalled this book was actually published.

Not the kind of room filling sound I was looking for
I recently purchased these speakers to compliment my whole house audio set-up. I also have some Klipsch 5650 in-ceiling speakers. In comparison to the Klipsch, these speakers are a pale comparison for fidelity. Next time, I'll spend the extra $200 and spring for the more impressive speakers. I hate to cut holes into drywall, run wire only to be underwelmed by these polk units.

Politics and Injustice
This movie is the quintessential example of how politics and public opinion rules the day. Each of the actors in this criminal injustice movie are compelling. Cusack's plight is what endears him to the viewer--restive in nature, the Louisiana boy attempts to save Pacino's administration and future but, is unable to resurrect him in the end. While Pacino is resolute in his hopes, dreams and desires, his role as the Greek mayor of New York City is plagued with a plethora of problems that he can no longer control. His prior associations for good or bad is what is his final Waterloo. This film is resplendent in its depiction of police and political depravity. This is a must see film for political science and criminal justice students.Most respectfully,Dr. Charles Thomas Kelly, Jr.Assistant Professor of theAdministration of JusticeLouisiana State University-Alexandria

Too many unanswered questions...
I am a great fan of the Richard Jury series but this one was very disappointing. There were too many unanswered questions, characters thrown in that were never explained, main characters suddenly acting out of character and an ambiguous ending (which I won't go into in case you want to read this) that was annoying. One last complaint - if this book is taking place in the present day, then Richard Jury and the other children born during WWII would be in their 60's. Is Richard Jury - the heart throb detective - sopposed to be 65? Is the middle-aged woman who is the baby in question 62. How old is her mother? Eighty? If you are a Richard Jury fan you will probably want to read this book but be prepared to be disappointed. Too much atmosphere - not enough plot.

Beyond Disappointing - Poor Customer Service
I was really looking forward to pressing my coffee.My kit arrived and I was able to make one pot before the screws fell out of the push strainer. There was n fixing it. I caled the company, and they insisted I mail it back. I am disabled, on a fixed income, with no way to get a proper box or afford the return postage. I give the worst review I can think of. Horrible experience with tears. Defective product. Buyer beware.

Description does not match item
Buyer beware, this is a youth hat. It's tight on my 6 year old. The label on the hat states youth, but no where on the description does it state that. The description states that if you are a player or a coach and your team needs to have the "pro team" look that this is the hat for you. There is no way this hat would fit any coach, and the only player it would fit is a 4 or 5 year old playing t-ball. Very disappointed, as this was supposed to be part of a birthday present for my 12 year-old son. Aside from the misleading description, the hat itself is very nice and would be great if you have a little Ranger fan in your house.

I'm still lost...
Wanted more. Author didn't deliver. Second hand info and overt speculation are really all this book has to offer. Author holds himself in such a high regard that I thought the book was more about him and his visit to Brazil than any true crash investigation. Pass on this one. Not worth the time.

Still glad to have them
I knew that these batteries would meet our needs. The real test will be time, but they work great for the start. I'd be happy if we really do get more than 500 charges from these. The one dissappointment is that Amazon advertised them as being 2500mAh, but that is not what we received. We got 2300mAh. Not nice. It does matter. We're okay because we simply wanted more than 2000.

Nikawa's Travels
William Least Heat-Moon is not your Average Joe. He's not even your average Not-Average-Joe. Heat-Moon's epic 500-page recounting of his journey from the Atlantic to the Pacific (more than 5,000 miles) over the inland rivers and canals of the United States in a small boat called Nikawa, or "River Horse" in the Osage language, is his story of a brave undertaking. Heat-Moon, whose previous works have included a 400-page in-depth microcosmic study of a single Kansas county and a journey by car across rural America, is a legend among those who live life off the beaten trail. In River Horse, the author moves downriver from town to town across the Hudson, Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri and other waterways and meets and greets countless locals along the way. This portrait of the interior of America that lies beside its water highways is deservedly classic.

worse
The woman at the spa I go to is really hooked up on this stuff and praises it all the time. I've tried it and I am really not sure if it helps and perhaps even makes things worse.I know that zinc itself is great antinflamatory but this thing has a ton of vitamin B6, which actually is a probable cause for acne from what I've read. So perhaps looking for a zinc supplement without the B6 will be a better choice. Also omega-3/fish oil supplements might be something to try.As for this one (if you do decide to try it) the pills are not too big but I found them tricky to swallow because they are a bit porous so they stick to tongue/mouth. You have to keep them in your mouth with some water to make sure they've absorbed some of it and won't get stuck when you're swallowing. Weird.

Horrible CD
If she is the princess of Roc-A-Fella, I would hate to know who the Queen is!! This CD is so cheesy and so juvenile! I DO like the song "Make Her Feel Good" - I guess that's why I bought the CD. But she's what? Like 12 years old? I was SO wrong in getting this CD! The lyrics are bad, the songs are bad, I read a few interviews with her in magazines and she is just WRONG! The song: "No Daddy" My god......The lyrics speak for themselves "I didn't have no daddy around when I was growing up. That's why I'm wild and don't give a fcuk"! ISH!! Then the song: "Get Up On Ya Gangsta" Again - she is like 12!!! It's just bad!!! All around bad! I have given it chances but I am feeling no part of it at all! Bypass this one on the shelves and buy something else or just save your money.

Really Good Cookbook
I found the book fairly worthwhile! Some of the recipes were a little difficult for me to follow, but all in all my family enjoys it. The best tip I can give anyone who purchases this book, if you're not sure read it again!!

Un tributo a la musica de un genio
Rara vez me gusta tanto un album de tributo a ningun artista. Parece dificil para un fanatico poder asimilar versiones de los mejores temas de su artista favorito. Pero en "Serrat Eres Unico" se combina lo mejor del talento hispanoamericano del momento, para rendir tributo a la musica de un genio: Joan Manuel Serrat.Grabado en 1996, el album destaca particularmente por las participaciones de Diego Torres, quien versiona la legendaria "Penelope" de manera impecable; Carlos Varela, a cargo del encantador tema "Esos Locos Bajitos"; y Ketama, interpretando una inolvidable version de "Aquellas Peque�as Cosas".

Good choice for a padded bag
This bag is just right for my elementary school aged daughter to keep and carry her short scale bass to lessons in. Smelled very chemically straight out of the package, but once it aired out, the odor is no longer a problem.The box that the item arrived in was a bit beat up, and half of the tape was coming off, maybe even cut, leaving the item to easily fall out. The delivery guy commented that the box says "rate this package" in large type on the side of the box. HA! I give the shipping package one star.Overall, this will be a fantastic case/bag for my daughter's bass!

Look Good, Built Cheaply
I bought these headphones three months ago because I was really digging their look. Most headphones are kind of boring while Skullcandy admittedly makes some beautiful/edgy products. However, these headphones have been a big disappointment. First, the fit actually hurt my ears if I wore them for prolonged periods of times because of their circular shape instead of oval shape. Secondly the plastic piece connecting the earpiece to the band just split in two. Cheap construction. I haven't given up on Skullcandy simply because I love their designs, but I would recommend checking out other brands if you can't spend extra money on getting Skullycandy's more expensive/hopefully higher quality products.

5 stars for two great songs
I love this version of Pallet. I think it is MJH's best version of his best song. Can't get enough of that guitar pickin'.Coming in Glory is also great. Sounds like they are in the room with you.Five stars for each of those two. I did not download anything else from this one (FOTM).

sub par
They looked good on the website, but when I actually got them I found they didn't really cut aluminum all that easily.I don't know how they would be cutting steel, but I found myself very disappointed with these wheels. Then after a few attempts at cutting the very small screw holding the wheel on broke. overall a bad deal.I don't know if the more expensive diamond wheel would have been a better choice but I can only hope they use better quality screws.

I've never had anything this cheap in my life. Any normal amount of pressure that you might exert on these handles and the blades will break off. Yep, that cheap.

Poor Quality
After 4 days use, I have to agree with criticsms seen elsewhere about the elastic straps used to hold the PDA in place. With a Jornada 568, and with the screen cover attached, the straps quickly become "stretched and sloppy". Who wants to use velcro patches on the battery pack. This product needs a serious re-design!The Rhino 1100 will make a handy accesory case, but I wouldn't trust an [expensive] device in it. GripGear Designs makes a superior case, although it is 1.5X the price.

Too much repitition.
Although the stories themselves are interesting, the repetitive phrases used throughout the book take away from the validity of the stories. The author reminds us in almost every story that he is a very tall 320 pound fellow. We know that you're big . . . get on with the story! He also uses certain phrases too much which also cheapens the book that was not [inexpensive] at all.
