0 | Not as advertised | I've groomed my two Shih Tzus and wanted a guide to help me give a better cut. This book tells you all about the tools needed and how to wash them but nothing on how to cut or clip your dog. Book arrived in damaged condition on top of being totally useless and returned the same day it arrived. | 37,889 |
1 | Mechelle's Way | I have been working out with Mechelle at her class for 1 1/2 years now (the 1st time ever I stuck with a workout program) I am 34 years old and a mother of 2 little ones. Just 3 months after going to class only twice a week I lost a dress size and now another year later I am a little smaller then I was before I had children. I went form a size 16 after pregnancy to a size 12. I am more confident, happy and outgoing. I even joined a volleyball league (something I havent done since school). I was so excited when this video came out. I use it at home when I cant get to class and my kids pretend to do it with me. The better your technique gets the better workout you get and you will see results. I have tried working out with equipment at the gym, spinning, roller blading, step class, and aerobics over the last 10 years. This is the 1st workout I stuck with and saw amazing results. Thanks Mechelle. | 24,745 |
1 | Hilarious! | I laughed from the first page until the last. It is also filled with intelligent, insightful, useful information on the internet dating scene. This book is worth every penny and will save you time and energy when you decide to take the Match.com plunge! | 4,787 |
0 | Boring! | It reminded me of another boring soap opera with an extremely predictable ending. I'm sorry I wasted my money on this book. | 7,663 |
1 | A Marvelous Book | If you want to improve your understanding and skill in depicting the human figure, you must read Hogarth's books. And you must reread them and draw and read them again and draw again. | 15,122 |
1 | An excellent Video | This is a must for any photographer wishing to increase thier knowedge in studio photography. It covers all phases of studio operation. A professional will also gain from this program. | 42,561 |
1 | Product as advertised | Product works flawlessly. Had no problems installing product on lift gate of truck shell. Would highly recommend. Shipment was fast and on-time. | 19,966 |
1 | Intelligent Abient | I agree with just about everything the reviewer below states except the star ranking. I'd give a 3.5 but rounded up. This music is great for what it is, spacey ambient chill out music, but there is nothing really ground breaking or special here. Don't let that dissuade you though, it is a thouroughly enjoyable album. The best way to listen to it is with the lights out, on good speakers or headphones and with some cedarwood incense burning. I reccomend it to fans of this genre. | 46,308 |
1 | He said She said is a classic romance | I forgot how much I loved this movie! Purchased it over a month ago, arrived quickly and brand new! Love it! | 2,150 |
0 | If you have carpet or pets do not buy this vacuum | I bought the roadster because of the power nozzle since I have carpet and a dog. It is the worst vacuum I have ever owned. I clean out the filter several times while I am sweeping and wash it after every use and it still barely picks up anything. If you want a canister vacuum with a power nozzle you are better off spending the extra money and buy a real quality vacuum. I wrote to the company and told them how disappointed I was with their vacuum and have yet to hear from them. It is nice to know they stand behind their product. | 29,714 |
0 | this game is the pitt's | wow this game is the end to the spyro line. It lacks entertainment value,its hard to master the controls,and its also a rip off of a good 20-30 some dollars. if it was my oppinion i would discontinue the game, becausethis game really is a stinker! | 4,907 |
1 | Excellent -- Would be PERFECT with Roland's "Say It Ain't... | I loved the movie and even more so, the soundtrack. But, as many others are also wondering, why wasn't the best song of the movie (in my humble opinion) included! I would love to buy the CD again if it came out in a second release including Roland Gift's "Say It Ain't So". Still, the soundtrack is absolutely excellent! If anyone knows where or how to get a copy of that song I'd greatly appreciate the information. | 6,478 |
0 | Very disappointed | Screen is blurry around the edges and corners, most obvious with text (i.e. ESPN sports ticker, movie credits, etc.). Equally bad for satellite/cable TV, DVD, and Playstation. Perhaps I should have returned it, but I had to destroy the box to get it home. I do not recommend this TV. Get a Samsung instead. | 40,491 |
1 | Good Book | We used this for basic anatomy class. Loved the book as it was more detailed then we needed, but gave me insight on what was to come in later classes. I decided to keep the book and not sell it back as I felt it would be a great reference. I especially liked the blue boxes with clinical correlations to connect the class to real life medicine. | 32,532 |
0 | Eh ... revised to a 1 | Needed the terminals and a spare crimper.The terminals are ... terminals --- with inflexible, clumsy insulation. After using a bunch of them in a project I wound up clipping them out and using other ones. Horrible.The crimper is ... a paperweight.I don't have a tension scale, but my guess is 5 pounds to open them.I'm sure I'll find a use for the case. | 46,887 |
1 | Deeper, with More Impact | This movie was excellent. I had avoided it because I thought it was as the critics said. I should have known. The cast was great and worked together well. The premise seemed to have jumped from the airwaves of coasttocoast, which I happen to enjoy, and the technology, well, unobtainium says it all. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, since the real raw material for it was funobtainium. | 44,551 |
0 | Misleading Reprint Title - First Edition, NOT the Original Edition | As a collector of BSA handbooks, this reprint is misnamed and should have the word "original" removed from it's name here.This is a reprint of the 1911 edition, which collectors refer to as the "first" edition, not the "original" edition The 1910 edition, hastily put together by Ernest Thompson Seton and mostly adopted straight Baden-Powells' "Scouting for Boys" , is called the "original" edition by students of BSA history.Thus, because of the misleading word "orignal" in the title, I orderd this from Amazon and wound up getting a duplicate of what I already had. I'm thus returning it to Amazon.That said, a lot can be learned from all editions of the handbook. Just make sure you get your first aid and outdoor ethics (Leave No Trace) skills from the current one ;-) | 10,982 |
1 | Super Fun! | Hadn't heard of this until playing it with friends this Summer, then I had to have it! Fair warning, it's addictive! All the elements of a great game, strategy, endless ways to win, or lose, :(Highly recommended if you enjoy fun board games. | 15,492 |
0 | A LITTLE OFF | I'm not a George Winston basher, Autumn and December are cornerstones in my collection. I was put off by this one - it didn't touch me the way previous recordings did. Seemed filled with commercialism rather than emotion. | 42,165 |
1 | LOVE -- great gift | My absolute favorite childrens book; the first 50 times I read this I bawled like a baby. The illustrations are beatiful as well--- | 6,694 |
0 | Derivitive, Imitative, and Sub-standard British Fare | There are a lot better mysteries from Britain than this one (Inspector Lewis, for one). Nathaniel Parker plays a landowning Oxford grad who decides to become a police detective (a la Lord Peter Whimsey, who was far more interesting and entertaining). The decision is questioned by his peers, and rightly so, because all he brings to the table is a pretty face, a cow-eyed look, and an aggressive manner. The plots are standard--the hero and heroine are detective partners who secretly are in love with each other. And you really don't care about who the murderer or murderers are. The character of the medical examiner is a direct steal from the one played by David Macallan on NCIS, except that he is younger and better looking. In fact, the shows tend to feature handsome men and plain women, plainly dressed,some in need of dental work. On the plus side, the background music and the photography (beautiful looks of London) are superior. | 15,121 |
1 | Excellent Book | I am a mainframe programmer for 8 years and never had a good book like this one. I wanted to have a good book that will give me all the information I need so I selected this book after reading the review comments of this book.When I received this book and checked the contents I was disappointed so I thought I should return this book.But after started reading this book I was so surprised to see a book that was so organized and well explained.It was like when we study we make important notes of the concept which will be useful to refresh for interviews.But we don't need to do this if we have this book as after a detailed explanation , there is a picture and description .So I recommend this book who wants to train/learn/refer in their job and I couldn't wait to write this comment after reading for 3 days. | 16,820 |
0 | Effete | I bought the CD based on other reviews. The hymnish sound is OK for songs like "America the Beautiful" but I was hoping for more robust renditions of songs like "The Marine's Hymn", "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" and "The Caissons Go Rolling Along". | 30,309 |
0 | What a bore | I don't like BTWN at all. It's got lots of covers, and apart from "Jump they say" and "I know it's gonna happen some day", all songs sound the same. They're even of the same length. They just don't build up to something. They lack some sort of climax. I find it very hard to sit through the whole album. And all the extra's you get with this expanded edition just make things worse; more boredom is what they bring. | 7,748 |
1 | So funny, you'll cry | I got hooked on this show at about the 3rd episode. I hardly ever watch TV but I can't not watch this. It is so funny and brilliant. Sheldon is so anal its hilarious and Leonard is just so sweet that you can't help but love him. The other characters are so well matched and believable that you can truly enjoy the relationships. The banter is never forced and is really tear-producing funny. Now, we never miss an episode. This DVD kept us from jonesing too much over the summer for the show. The DVD is great with the extras they put on it. Really puts everything in perspective like having a real physicist as a consultant so all their geek-speak is right. It's great. | 34,617 |
1 | Worth the wait | This album is fantastic. I am a fan since the Wham days, and this album does not disappoint. Even friends that are not into him have said that the songs are great and that his voice sounds AMAZING. Welcome back, George! If we could now just convince him to not stop making albums!!!! Btw, saw him on Oprah and have to say that he is a real sweetheart. It is refreshing to see a celeb that is so open and honest. | 14,323 |
0 | An homage to neurosis, self-destruction, and self-absorption | Withdrawal from the world is not a quality worthy of admiration. There is nothing compelling about this film. The story it tells is not admirable in my humble opinion.If you want a movie with a moral, watch something else. If you want a movie with a compelling narrative, watch something else. If you want a movie with a character who places his own profundity over the lives of others, then watch this movie. | 31,631 |
0 | except for the noxema girl, this movie sucked!!!! | This had to be the worst movie I have ever seen. The only reason I bought this is because on the box it said in the tradition of American Pie, which I love. American Pie, this movie is not. The lead character is supposed to be this big time player. In short he has no skills of how a true player is. Dude, when you play a girl you are not supposed to tell her what you feel or even fall for her. What a Jabrone. Whoever wrote this movie should have done a little research. Besides all that the acting and the plot were horrible and unwatchable. I searched my dvd only to see Rebecca Gayheart aka "The Noxema Girl". As Heavy D once said"got nothin' but love for ya!" If you want to see a good movie on being a player get Def Comedy Jams "How to be a Player" with Bill Bellamy, you can't go wrong with this. I give that movie 5 stars!!! | 1,293 |
0 | I loved it until . . . | . . . my daughter began to feed herself! Booster seats are the way to go, but only if they can be cleaned easily and this one can not. Tons of food gets "lost" in the two holes in the seat where the straps come out. I too have tried stuffing papertowels into the holes, but my daughter just picks them out. I usually have to get the vacuum out to clean the chair after meals. My daughter is 18 months now and the chair has served me well, but we are going to buy a different one, now that we know what to avoid. | 22,428 |
1 | Sweet & Soulful | I found Toby Lightman via Pandora.com and knew I had to hear more of her stuff. I was not disappointed in the least.Standouts for me include "Alone", "Weight of the World", "One Sure Thing" and "My Sweet Song" | 20,073 |
0 | Great CD even when scratch to hell | This review would be a 1 star if not for the music on the CD but the product I received was super scratched, I only paid 3 dollar for it though. If your a WU fan and don't have this. I highly recommend it. | 39,239 |
0 | html is dead, long live html | You mean like how DOS was supposed to be replaced by better operating systems by 1982? Really -- we're going to be stuck with plain 'ol HTML for decades. | 42,721 |
1 | Recommended for your project-management shelf. | In the preface, the editor explains that this collection of essays arose from a "brainstorming session for a conference of the same name." As you'd expect with over a dozen authors, the results are uneven. If you're involved in software development, the following chapters will justify your purchase of the book:- Don Gray: "Solving Other People's Problems"- S.M. & K. Roberts: "Do I want to Take This Crunch Project?"- Gerald Weinberg: "Congruent Interviewing by Audition"- Johanna Rothman: "It's Just the First Slip"Although the critical reader may find some other sections offering commonplace or occasional misguided advice, the whole book is stimulating and easy to read in one sitting. Recommended for your project-management shelf. | 14,418 |
1 | THIS BOOK WAS HARD TO PUT DOWN! | This book was hard to put down i read it in about 3 days off and on. This was the first time i read a book by Solomon Jones and it aint gone be the last. I recently bought Ride or Die by Solomon and Pipedream by Solomon and I cant wait to read them. I highly recommend this book to people that enjoy street tales this book is for you! This book has you wondering whats going to happen next. Its Wonderful!!!!! | 47,799 |
1 | Great for kids | I am really glad there is a product out there that teaches kids values in an easy to read easy to follow way. My children love to read this before going to bed and can't wait for the next day when we get to read the next volume. Great illustrations. | 36,287 |
0 | Overengineering - Expensive and Lousy Shave! | I agree with several reviewers that this cleaning unit is really a lot of hype and overengineering. At the time, I did not realize I would be buying replacement cartridges every 1-2 months. Cleaning shaver stubble from my rotary shavers for >10 years has never really been a big deal. We have far more unpleasurable waste that we deal with everyday. Hey, we're human!As far as the shaver, it cannot do a good job on the neck if you have a thick new beard every morning. I am of Italian descent so take that for "whaddits" worth. As a test, I used my very old Norelco rotary on half my face and it blew away the Braun in direct comparison. Maybe there are foil shavers out there that are equal to rotary shavers, but this one turned me off completely to foil shavers.P.S.- I personally felt this product needed to be bashed. I am even disappointed with Costco for carrying this product in their limited selection. | 20,303 |
1 | Everything a GTA fan could ever want! | I got a PSP for Christmas and saved up all of my Christmas money to by LCS. This game is so cool! The storyline is understandable yet very descriptive and deep. Though the graphics such as occasional blurs and sudden stopping could be fixed the game is very strong. This game was my first GTA game. I had played San Andreas and Vice City at my friends houses. I was blown away! I had never seen games like these where you could just roam around and do whatever the heck you wanted. So when I heard that there was a GTA game coming out for PSP I asked for a PSP for Christmas along with GTA. As I said I saved up for GTA so I didn't get it for Christmas. When I bought it it was one of the greatest days of my life! Nuff said. | 38,627 |
1 | Another great book by Christopher Pike! | Once you read the first final friends book you absolutely have to read this one. The first one gets you hooked, the second reels you in. | 2,371 |
0 | Lagging | The tedious repititions and the incomprehensible garrulousness makes this book what it is. It took the entire chapter of THIRTY FIVE pages to explain simple relations between voltage, current, and resistance.The book is simply a random cacophony of words and diagrams. It is incoherrent with absolutely no order and random pieces of information are spread throughout its entirety of 1008 pages. The information you need for problems of the first chapter aren't covered until chapter two, several examples hardly relate to what's going on in the chapter.You'd be better off learning the things covered in this course... | 23,496 |
1 | Good product, great price. | I got the product and it works great. Delivery was ontime, even it was a little expensive on delivery. The price is good. | 20,509 |
0 | Not recommended | Some people really love this fragrance, however, this is a very controversial cologne that many people will not like. This takes a lot of patience to learn to enjoy, so this is difficult to wear in public.The smell is not clean, it is ashy and floral. The scent is strongly similar to a urinal cake and sweat(and I am not joking). You can see the hundreds of reviews on Basenotes.com for Kouros, and at least 1/3 of the reviewers acknowledge that this smells like a public restroom. Not everyone will make this association, but many people will.This is not safe to wear in public and I wouldn't recommend wearing this at least until you try a sample first.I don't want to be dogmatic and say that nobody will enjoy this. Some people really love this. But personally, I would never wear this. | 44,553 |
1 | Almost New | It's not almost new.I mistaked the address and they returned the item when it arrived back. Good service, althought I would like to have had the choose of the kind of send and not to pay it like. | 42,787 |
1 | For fans, by fans | I'm so glad I got my hands on this one. While I didn't read every single story, the ones I did read, I absolutely loved. Probably my favorite one was the one where Starscream looses his memory and ends up spending a surprisingly peacefully day with the Autobots. Great character development and inside look into one of the most infames of transformers. I also loved the last story, which retold the Beast Machines episode "Bad Spark" through Megatron's eyes. This book was clearly written by fans who truly know the Transformers universe. I just wish there were some more anthologies like this. | 47,131 |
1 | Beautiful | How could this not win the National Book Award? This is one of if not the essential Just novel. It is beautiful and fleeting, like a dream. This is the District, mysterious and perfect and eternal. | 16,844 |
0 | Bad CD | I think this CD ( )! Please do not purchase it!Flaws inCD! 1) bad lyrics - "do you want my love" "baby want myman back" 2) bad representation of Asian-Americans hair-dye poor taste in clothing 3) bad rapping for background music! keys are weak! 4) nothing to spectacular songs to general 5) please compare these songs to other American artists ; I'm sure you will not want to buy this CD 6) please buy other Sony artists! ( ) | 38,398 |
1 | It works! | This is a very good product that works the way they advertise. I am 70 years old and I can now walk my 65 lb lab without him pulling my arm out of my socket. Buy it. | 28,512 |
1 | Excellent | First I have to say that it was impossible to get hold of this book because it was out of print. One retailer made me wait for 7 month without any success. One day I ended up in a little bookstore called Shelly Leishman Books in Ottawa and the owner managed to get it for me within 2 weeks. Thank you.Lady of Hay continues in Child of the Phoenix and Child of the Phoenix goes on in Kingdom of Shadows. Each book is independent of course. What a read. Obviously if people loved the first two books they will go after this one too. It was worth waiting 7.5 months to end up reading in within 2 days.This book is a must read. I hope that Barbara Erskine will publish a new book soon. | 24,526 |
1 | Canon camera battery | I would recommend this Canon battery. I have bought generic replacement batteries in the past and have not had good luck with them. They don't seem to hold a charge as long and I just end up replacing them with the name brand ones anyway. Although the Canon batteries are more expensive, I believe they are worth the extra money. I did a lot of shopping around and Amazon had the best price, so I would not only recommend the name-brand battery, but I would recommend buying them on Amazon. | 11,500 |
1 | Quiet and lovely | Not many people had the fortune of hearing Joy Zipper's brilliant American Whip (which will finally be released next year), but The Stereo And God is an amiable stopgap to tide us over until it finally sees the light of day. Joy Zipper are The Raveonettes if they had more than one good idea, tripping on The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Velvet Underground and My Bloody Valentine. They've also stumbled upon a formula of pure loveliness. | 10,862 |
0 | Pure Garbage | If I could give it no starsz I would. Instead it gets two thumbs down and a "Booooooo"!!!! This movie was garbage in its purest form. | 21,406 |
1 | Better than liquid decloggers | With out a doubt better than any of the liquid brands. Those bottles are like $7 and they didn't do anything to declog my bathtub drain. I used the zip-it. And it is tricky to get down the drain at first because the bathtub drain goes vertical for an inch and then all the way horizontal. So you have to do some manuevering. Its also very durable.But once I found out the trick, I kept at it. And after about 15 minutes of using the zipit I was able to get about 2 tennis ball size of hair from the drain. It was disgusting, but also very cool at the same time.Pays for itself literally on the first try, no more wasting money on the expensive liquid crap. | 28,822 |
1 | The Doo Doo is rollin | This is one of the landmark cd's that never really landed. Often overlooked as a rap staple, Doo Doo Brown is where we first heard the expression "BOYYYYYYY" which was then popularized by Flava Flav. Don't get me wrong, I know 2 hyped brotheres are not Public Enemy but come on, what happened to giving props?? Seeing how true rap music almost doesn't even exist with the advent of hip-hop, do yourself a favor and get this cd. If you like old school rap or even just the movie Old School you'll be taken back to a time when rap was rap and boys became BOYYYYYY's. this CD ends with a track called "The Shoot Outs" (again a term first coined here without any props given to Doo Doo)this track is fresh even over 10 years later.You won't regret this purchase. Don't be left with the vapors, get this CD.I'm outty 5000.K330-44. | 34,017 |
1 | Def Jam has a Winner! | This girl is so amazing. Every track on the cd is the Bomb! My favs are Golden, Good Girl, In This for you, Is this the way love feels, et.al. There's not a bad track on the CD. I guess when you're in the company of LA Reid and Babyface, where can a girl go wrong? This is the only CD I'm listening to now, and I'm advising all my friends and family not to sleep on Chrisette. She was here in Detroit for a free concert over the weekend of June 22nd, and I missed her because of a family wedding. Never again! | 45,037 |
0 | Sandisk 6GB Sansa e270 died after 1.5 months. | I bought this player to replace my iRiver MP3 "brick".The sound quality is average, lower than my older player. This morning, after 1.5 months of LIGHT use (40 minutes a day 5 days a week) the player died without any reason. The wheel lights up but there is nothing on the screen. I cannot even turn it off. The power button does nothing.Stay away ! | 36,249 |
0 | How to Teach English | Check the publication date if you need this text for a class, as there is a more current version with a few changes. I cannot see why one would buy this particular book if they were not doing a TFL/ TESOL course, it is rather dry as far as texts go.As for the quality from this vendor, although the book had minimal highlighting and was in decent condition, the DVD was very badly scratched. This should have been sold as the book only. The book could have been 25% cheaper considering the unplayable condition of the DVD. | 35,550 |
1 | NO MANCHEN QUE PELICULA | A toda la gente que no entienda, que lastima, soy mexicano y se friegan. Es la pelicula mas chingona que hay.BIGGEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME | 49,564 |
1 | Small Children | The Wii system is wonderful, wish there were more games for small children ages 3 - 5: Downloads are slow:Wish DVD's could be used...Otherwise alot of fun. | 222 |
1 | Exactly what I needed! | This rake is exactly what I needed to help control underwater plant growth around the shore of the lake in my backyard. This item comes in a long box and everything is packaged well. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to put together.The razors are extremely sharp at the end of the rake and easily cut through and pull up underwater plants. Not an easy job, but my shoreline looks a lot better now after a few days work. | 15,900 |
0 | This is an old collection of games. | This is an old collection of games. The first games are from the MacDonnell - La Bourdanaisse match of 1834. The last games are from 1951. The book is in old descriptive notion. Coles is the author and Reinfeld simply checked the annotations. Coles was looking for hard fought games and not necessarily the most briliantly played games which makes this an interesting collection. There is almost a minimal amount of annotations and diagrams. Chernov's Most Instructive Games of Chess is from about the same period and certainly a better buy than this. | 3,091 |
0 | Meh... | This fragrance was not what I was expecting. It smells too musky and just blah. My boyfriend even said I smelled like an old lady. :/ Not impressed. | 48,474 |
1 | SD flash cards | The flash cards were delivered promptly and worked beautifully for showing our pictures on the WII system | 26,680 |
0 | expected more | This book isn't what I expected. There is much more you have to know, if you want to learn the proper way of Pilates. But I would say, it could be a start. | 13,788 |
1 | An Honest Story | I can't put my finger on it, but Guy Hoffman writes in a way that I like! The present article appeared in the first number of the Gurdjieff journal called Stopinder, but is also published separately.The short article is a presentation of Mr. Hoffman's contact with the work and focuses almost entirely of the difficulties with the whole thing: his life situation, his work situation and his writing situation. On the outset it is all negative. What is it that changes this negativity into a feeling of sympathy towards the writer?I've tried to find out and my conclusion is that it is the appalling honesty Guy writes with; through this the reading of the text becomes enjoyable. | 13,727 |
1 | Order for a friend | I ordered this video for a friend. It came just the way it was listed and my friend is very much enjoying it. | 22,141 |
0 | Breaking bits and dead drills | What's the saying? Three strikes, you're out? Well, this is the 3rd time this drill has died on us. The first one was under warranty and died during light use. The replacement died out of warranty, also under light-moderate use but we were able to get it repaired. This time, I'd just started drilling holes in to brick and after breaking two bit tips, the drill just died. It had been running for less than 2 minutes with breaks for cool down. There wasn't any telling smell of burnt motor, so its probably another electronic problem. I was able to finish the holes lickety-split with a small 3/8 corded drill.There are some serious design flaws in this equipment. Worked great for serious wood drills, but we won't be repairing it again. It's clearly undependable. | 2,412 |
1 | Interesting and comprehensive | Molly Ivins is one of the best political authors and columnists out there today, in my opinion. "Who Let the Dogs In?" is one of the better political books I've read recently. It's interesting and has a lot of information about the key political figures of our time-a must read for anyone interested in our current political scene. I, also, enjoy Molly's humorous touches. She knows her subject and is funny, too.I did note, however, that the on cover illustration ofGeorge W. Bush as a dog is that of a chihuahua. I thoughtRoss Perot was "the chihuahua". Bush should've been done as a pitbull as that would be more in keeping with his stubborn personality. The other illustrations of various political figures as dogs are definitely worth looking at, though. | 30,312 |
0 | Fell apart for me too!!! | It is beautiful to look at but birds can't land on it or it will tip (it's like a booby trap for birds). Squirrels are too heavy for it and tear it apart. The day after I hung it I looked out in the yard and saw a squirrel carrying something off - thought it was a hot dog or something. He grabbed it and ran over the fence and gone. They had knocked it down and ripped off the bottom piece of the feeder that connects to the base. Somehow my husband found that piece and glued the feeder back together. We have learned not to put any food in in but to hang it and enjoy it's beauty. | 35,600 |
1 | Delightful! | The Adventures of Milo & OtisThis DVD was a delightful depiction of the interaction between the tabby cat and pug dog. I purchased five copies to give to family members, my vet, a friend who has a pug and the family who gave me a rolly-polly ball of fur named "Hercules" on New Years day. Great story even though it's 20 years old. | 20,165 |
0 | Ineffective | The Bark Free comes with a cheap vinyl cover if you intend to use it outside. I spent the better part of a day building a nice weatherproof box for it. I should have tested the Bark Free with the vinyl cover first because it had no effect on my Sheltie. | 20,857 |
1 | A revelation about my mother's life | I resisted reading "Divine Secrets" for several months even though it was recommended by a friend whose opinion I respect. I thought the title was silly (still do) and I didn't like the cover (still don't). But -- the book itself really grew on me and the most important thing about it was that it made me re-examine how I thought about my own mother, who, by the way, is nothing like any of the Ya-Yas. It is so hard to access someone else's experiences and memories; the book helped me to understand some things about my own mother just because she grew up in the same era as the Ya Yas, and for that I am thankful. It also made me wonder--why do we so often seem to have unresolved conflicts with our parents? | 14,943 |
0 | One of the WORST Vidoes available | Very disappointing. Sickening actually, with the class doing one thing and Billy saying something else, every 6 seconds someone hoots or hollars, FOR GOD SAKE WOULD YOU JUST SHOW US THE MOVES AND SHUT UP ABOUT IT. Billy doesn't deliver much that's useful in this one. Steer clear! | 40,241 |
1 | A good game that could be longer | I purchased this for my daughter's 7th birthday, she really really wanted it! Installing it was a breeze, the controls were easy, and every move and puzzle was intuitive. There were some moments in the game where she became frustrated, especially the ending sequence which involved jumping onto moving pads. The only shortcoming is that it was not long enough. She finished the entire game in a weekend. It is pretty graphics intensive, so make sure your computer is up to snuff. | 10,989 |
1 | Modern Marvels Junkies Unite! | The collection offers a wonderful selection of some of the best programs. If you enjoy watching Modern Marvels, you'll be in heaven! | 9,159 |
1 | Good for its specialized task | This is a good product for its specialized task. The constuction is soild, the movement is good, and the holes clean. Still, I believe the price should be lower. | 17,084 |
0 | Would not touch | Long story short: I have been taking the following vitamins for 5-6 weeks and started experiencing headaches and stomachaches. When I stopped, the aches slowly went away. My body did not like something in the vitamins. Also, it scares me that the FDA does not police supplements - enough said for my body. | 40,588 |
1 | Great love story | This is a great love story. An excellent book worth reading. The characters in the book are interesting. Easy read. | 46,612 |
0 | who brought the funny? | Ok, so I'm only on page 64, but I kind of think any book worth it's salt should provide something interesting by the eleventh chapter. I picked up _Le Mariage_ at the library having heard of it and _Le Divorce_ in various magazines. I expected a light, witty, "chick book" that was also intelligent, but so far I've not even considered chuckling once. I'm afraid to finish the book lest I develop an incurable dislike of everything French. I feel like I've been told things about the characters but not shown anything, and therefore I feel no attachment to anyone. | 36,204 |
1 | Dinesh D'Souza | I appreciate Dinesh and his seeking the truth above all else. It took extreme courage and a heart of Constitutional Patriotism to put this documentary together and promote far and wide. Thanks to Dinesh! | 17,156 |
1 | For All Ages | I teach high school music and I found this book to by far, be the most hilarious work I have ever had the privilege to read. I felt the need to read passages to my friends with whom I was sharing a flight because I couldn't stop laughing out loud by the antics of Edward and his friends. Edward's narration was both witty and poignant, but most of all, it captured every nuance of the teenage mind and soul. | 5,572 |
0 | Nearly impossible to open, and hard on the fingers | I needed a rodent bait station, and bought this one because it was inexpensive. It does the job, but is exceptionally hard to open. It comes with a strange, two pronged key to "unlock" the station, so it can't be opened by mistake. The key is about two inches long, and must be pressed hard into the lock (you don't turn the key, you push it in). The two prongs are supposed to move the plastic clips out of the way so that the top opens. My key never worked. It also requires a great deal of finger strength. I finally just took a screwdriver and pried the station open, which wasn't bad when the bait station was new, but was disgusting when I opened it to refill it (when it was full of rat poop and bits of poison). I cussed the whole time.... There are better quality, and easier to use stations out there, like the ones from Protecta that open with a small allen wrench (included). The tomcat station is just too hard to use. | 40,178 |
1 | Life is what you make it. | When you forget to appreciate yourself this book tells you how in technicolor. Well written to be easily understood by anyone over the age of 7. | 34,118 |
0 | Unanswered | This is nothing more than a compilation of quotes from various religious books from various religions. For Christians the use of long discarded apocryphal New Testament era writings or false gospels is misleading. There is no conclusion that can be drawn about Heaven as so many and diverse views are presented. Save your money | 32,377 |
1 | Don't listen to the "EXPERTS" | I read with interest the review from the "professional" cockatiel person. What seems to be a 'one star' for them happens to be very useful to all of us "non-professionals".This book has helped beginners and that is what counts. Sometimes, the "experts" are dead wrong when it comes to the simpleness of a book helping the beginning cockatiel owner. This isn't bad, because most of us could give a hoot about genetics and showing your cockatiel at contests.Good book for beginners. | 19,671 |
0 | Who on earth made this garbage? | Okay so we are all entitled to our own opinion but this is the only film version of The Phantom of the Opera that is terrible! The cast, espcailly Jullian Sands, all need to get a little something called talent! Whoever wrote this is a sick person who shoould never be allowed to write anythign ever again! Same goes for ever directed it! Gaston Leroux is proably humilliated that his name was even on it! Don't waste you money on it! I loved thee one with Rob Englund and think that they were trying to remake it! Platrozism and a bad film! What A combination! | 12,735 |
0 | No better than stock | I bought this product to play Wii from further away. I have a 55" TV and a large living room, so I'm perhaps 12 or 15 feet from the TV. Most games work fine, but some complain and tell me to get closer to the TV.I get an extra...foot of range out of this thing. Regular sensor bar unplugged, regular sensor bar plugged in, I get one step more away from the TV. Still 2 steps from the chair. No help whatesoever.If you hate the cord, or it won't reach, or the cat eats it, this might be for you. If you want more range...keep looking. Maybe my problem is that I'm not directly in-line with the TV (perpendicular to the plane of the screen). If that's your problem, keep looking. | 13,526 |
1 | Just one minor criticism | Archer tells us about Whitechapel at the time of World War I. He misses out that Whitechapel was predominantly Jewish and it was here that the Jewish Legion (part of the British Army) was organized, paraded (right down Charlie's street) and became the model for the Jewish Brigade of World War II. | 46,426 |
1 | Is The Wavebird Worth It? | I heard about the Wavebird on 5/22. Now, even though I only have two controllers, the cords of the two get tangled up frequently. Not only that, but they get tangled with the two other cords on the Gamecube. When I heard this controller was wireless, I was very ecstatic. But I hadn't seen a picture yet. When I saw the picture, I was not pleased. I hate X-Box. Don't get me wrong, because I know its a good system, but I hate the controller. Its too big. This controller looks about the same size as it. But you should never judge a book by its cover (unless it shows a picture of Barney on it. In that case, tear it to pieces.) Anyway, I tried it out. It ROCKS!!! Buy it. Buy two. Its worth it. Here the pros and cons of it.Pros- No more tangled wires.Cord not too short.Cool looking.ITS WIRELESS!!Cons- Its expensive.Its big.People will fight over who gets it (or at least my friends do.)All in all, you should definetly get this. | 7,426 |
0 | Stalker | A disappointment. The characters were unusually shallow. The book seemed more of a TV script than a novel. I found myself trying to decide whether it was worth the effort to finish. In the past Ms. Kellerman's books have been entertaining. This book was a chore. I would like to have $1 for every time the word "but" was used.I think writers should stop trying to churn out a book a year. There seems to be a lack of creativity with the increase in volume. | 31,175 |
0 | The Butterfly Garden | I have read many books of the amish and this is the first one I have every read with the ugly words you have used in it,and sexual life you talk about between this couple,I will not read another book of yours.I am a christian and have enjoyed reading books with stories of the life the amish live, even thou I do not agree with what they believe in, They are true to their faith and they are a close net family, But the language you used in your book was all uncalled for. Other wise the book The Butterfly Garden would of been great. | 27,985 |
1 | Extremely Useful | This book is great! In addition to providing the fourteen simple and compound tenses of 501 Spanish verbs, it explains the reasons for, and formation of the various tenses. It has appendices that include common expressions, drills and tests, weather expressions and more. I have learned much from this book and use it often. | 36,841 |
0 | Good read | I like the story but some of it was hard to understand. I would have liked it to be translated better. | 6,923 |
1 | Well made | These straps are very good at a low cost. I actually like them better than a few high-priced straps I have and they’re lightweight as well. | 18,041 |
1 | Easy to assemble but hard to fill. | This is a great bag once you get it all put together and fill the bottom but the base is a real pain. The hole is too small but if you are going to fill it with water, you'll have no problems. Sand is a whole different story. | 38,118 |
1 | Works really well when you adjust it | Mounted on my 28-105 canon lens but it cropped half the picture off. Then I learned that by loosening the screws on the metal holders I could slide the unit up and down and adjust the viewing area. I have since copied about 75 slides and they turned out very well. So much easier than scanning them with my slide scanner. I can then download them and work on them if necessary. It is great fun to bring back the America my aunt knew shortly after World War II. I can share that world with the rest of my relatives! Results could be sharper, but it is pretty good for what I am trying to do. | 15,448 |
1 | I loved the book | This book really kept my attention. The development of the characters was great. I'd like to see more books by this author. Relationships are so important in today's world and even a broken relationship can be mended. It shows that time doesn't have to be a factor. | 10,327 |
1 | The Company She keeps | This is such a real writing. I couldn't put it down. This woman led an amazing life and always kept going. Talk about survivers. She is someone who should be recognized. For a first writing, she blew me away and I am an avid reader. I only hope she continues with her writing, I will be first in line, with many in back of me. I think everyone should read this book to see how we can make some wrong turns, but overcome them by the right turns. Georgia Durante is passionate in her writing, as well as living. Do not pass up reading this book............... | 20,075 |
0 | Yucky YUCK YUCK YUCK -_- | I did NOT enjoy this book.Interesting cultural aspects aside (that's about all this book is good for) I did not find the protagonist interesting. I didn't cry over her 'keeping her mother here' or whatever she thought she was doing when her mom was cremated and she wished for the smoke to keep rising. I found her a sad person. I mean, just SAD, not in her life circumstances but I just didn't like her, Genji and all aside.It's been a long time since I read this book, and I'm writing by the seat of my pants. I simply DID NOT like this book at all. And I will not ever be reading it again. That's pretty bad for me. o.o | 2,840 |
0 | Order Never arrived! | Never arrived after ordering, while I noticed it was posted cheaper in the price .. | 35,363 |
0 | Not what is used to be? | I just saw a new one. I have a 30-year-old General No. 36. It was made in the USA, had two round knobs to hold the pivoting arms to the base, and came with two threaded ground-to-a-point pins that went through the base to help hold it in place on rough stock, or which could be reversed to screw into the base from the underside to center the bit on narrow stock. There is absolutely NO runout on the spindle, which fits into precision bushings. I had upgraded the chuck to an LFA to match a professional chuck on the AC-powered drill I usually use with this tool.It sounds like the current production is yet another made-in-China cheapened and downgraded version of what was once a useful tool. [sigh] | 49,615 |
1 | Disappointing ending | This was my first time reading Carol Smith and I'm glad I found this author and will be checking out her other novels.I loved the book and did have to keep referring to the family tree in front, but didn't feel it detracted from the story. I love family saga type novels with lots of story in it.But I did feel a bit unsatisfied at the ending....with only about 20 pages left to go, I kept wondering HOW she was going to tie up SO many loose ends. I feel she rather rushed it and could have spent a bit more time. For instance....Clemency appeared to be the main character and yet...we never even got to "hear" her thoughts on the final outcome at the end. And it was a pretty dramatic ending for Clemency....yet, nothing.Going to try one of her other books though, as I like her writing style. | 47,927 |
