It's great in terms of giving you enough caffeine to perk you up but I can't stand the taste, but maybe I'm just picky. My boyfriend, a coffee addict, doesn't seem to mind it so much | 2 |

More than two years ago I purchased my first Sony PRS 505 Digital Reader. I loved it and I have read 25-35 books each year since then. Gradually the battery started running down more and more quickly and I learned that I would have to return my Sony to the factory to get a new battery which meant no book for several weeks and significant expense approaching $75-100. I learned on Amazon of a do-it-yourself battery replacement for under $30 and ordered that. The video looked very simple; unfortunately when I attempted the replacement it did not work out like the video and I wound up with a non-functioning e-reader. So...I considered switching to Kindle but since I have a couple of dozen unread books for the Sony that would have meant losing those books or embarking on a time-consuming process to convert them to work on the Kindle. I decided to get the Touch Edition Sony Digital Reader. It is attractive but as many have reported there are signifcant glare issues. I am supposed to be able to turn pages by swiping my fingers on the screen but that works only some of the time. The page turning buttons at the bottom work fine. My greatest disappointment, however, is the battery life. Even after fully charging it with the accessory charger (not the USB) it starts running down much more quickly than the PRS 505 did when new. At present I suspect my battery runs down enough that I have to recharge it every five days of perhaps 60-90 minutes reading per day. The PRS 505 initially would not run down for more than a couple of weeks if not being used much and for more than a week using it for daily reading. The Touch Edition battery is certainly not an improvement. I will likely stop buying Sony ebooks and when I have read the ones I currently have I will switch to a Kindle. | 2 |
Monsoon was a big step for a band like Caroline's Spine to make a name for themselves. What's evident in their debut is the fact that they really tried to put too much into one album, and didn't really work all as great as they may have wanted to.
I think Caroline's Spine is a great band, don't get me wrong. However, this album just sort of proved why they wearn't that big comercially. Song's like "trio-pain", "psycho", and "necro" (all in succession) not only sound similar, they just really have no substance. "Sweet and Sour" is ok, but not that great, "Sullivan" and "Monsoon" just painfully grudge on a little longer than they should, which prevented them from being better songs.
There are some major bright spots w/ this album though. "You and Me", "King for a Day", and "Say It to You" are very fine pieces of music. The song "So Good Afternoon" takes a while to get used to, but it also, has a lot of potential. "Wallflower" isn't too bad either.
The only reason this album gets 3 stars is b/c if you are a first time listener of the band, you'll simply say that all the songs sound the same. And true, Jimmy Newquist's voice just doesn't seem to carry much.
I would highly reccommend that you get Attention Please before Monsoon. It has 2 notably good singles, and a bunch more of catchy tunes than Monsoon. Overall, Monsoon, is still a good album, only if you accept a broad range in rock music, b/c Caroline's Spine definately sounds a lot different, and it's hard to compare them to anyone. | 2 |
I am not really sure what to say about this product except that my problem is not acne but large pores. These pores create what I call 'whiteheads' and that is what I don't like. So, I tried this Juice Beauty Organics to Clear Skin Kit and this is what I found.
This is much too strong for my sensitive skin....which I didn't even consider sensitive until I used this product. I used it at different times since it arrived and sometimes only one product at a time. This doesn't mean it is a bad product - it only means it's not the right one for me. I was sent this product for an honest review and this is my advice. If I were young and had ACNE I would not buy this product from anyone but AMAZON because their return policy is better than some. You get a lot of product for $29.00 and I would try it. If it produces any bad effects I would ask my doctor about the product (take it with you) and let him give you an expert's opinion. My opinion only counts for me - one person - and my skin is probably too old for ACNE. This company has a great many organic products to choose from and it is my understanding they are used by Gwyneth Paltrow. I don't know if her usage is important but she certainly looks great. Give these organic skin care items a chance to help you. I just went to the review page and a lot of other people like it. Maybe I should try again. When I do, I'll do an addendum to mine. | 2 |

I bought this to extend the range of a shared signal within a brick church building (about 50 feet) from source to target. It works, but only increased the "signal bars" by one bar. However, we're now able to consistently get online now which is an improvement. No fireworks here, but it works! | 2 |

Could not get this part directly from Vita-mix company. I needed it for the 32 oz container. It fits properly. Part is as pictured--be sure to order for your proper container size. | 2 |
This is my fifth version of Trend Micro Antivirus. This time around Trend Micro did a little better then normal by improving it's over-all speed. Install time wasn't that bad, taking only about 15 minutes on my laptop with a 2.4 GHz processor. Now this program does do a pretty good job on protecting my computer from viruses and spyware, but it does it EXTREMELY slow. I would highly recommend spending a little bit on a more more expensive Antivirus like Kaspersky or Vipre, and get well over 3x the speed! If speed is not an issue for you and you have more time than money this WILL do the job, like i said earlier, I've never really had much trouble with it NOT stopping a virus, so...
Overall, it's a good software for the price,I prefer it over Norton/Mcaffe but there IS much better software out there | 2 |
I will start with I love the color! There is a solid insole I would not all it cushioned nor is it hard. It is just okay. The tongue does flaps down into the shoe, so when I am putting it on, I need to make sure the tongue is up, so slip ons, you can just slip on with no issues not so much but this takes a half of second longer. Issue no issues that is just a personal preference. The mesh is not that soft it does not rub or anything it just is not very soft. The shoes are constructed well. I have tugged, pulled bended and twisted all parts of both shoes, even bending the toes to touch the heel and heel to toe no problems. The eyelets and elastic are fine. No issues. I do not believe this will be my favorite beach shoes but they will server the purpose to protect my feet on shell covered or muddy beaches. Sizing is spot on. I ordered the exact size I was wear and they fix prefect. No where on the shoes or label does it say where these are made, but for the attached label, I am guessing China. I was able to receive these shoes at a discounted price for a fair, unbiased and honest review. | 2 |
Purchased for my craftsman cabinet that has storage in the doors. These are perfect for spanning the doors to keep stuff from falling out. Seem pretty well made. Hopefully they'll hold up and won't lose their elasticity. | 1 |
It came scratched and seems a bit small, but I settled. Now I guess I wouldn't want bathroom trash sitting around long enough to fill a big can, so I'm happy with it. I like the step lid feature, as well as the removable liner. I must have turned the can so the scratch is not visible. It's okay. | 2 |
Disgusting and tasteless. Yuck. I would not purchase this again or recommend this to anyone. | 0 |
Love the sound these provide. I bought thinner than what I usually use since they are made from ultem material and it's very rigid. | 1 |
Once upon a time, these stands came with wheels. Now, it seems, you have to purchase them separately. This stand is sturdy and easy to put together but without the wheels, it's very difficult to move. | 2 |
If you have been on the search for the best delay pedal then look no further. I can easily put it up against any boutique delay pedal and I still love the carbon copy. I play on the worship team at church and gives me exactly what I need. However, I have played in the secular music market for over 37 years and have been through more gear than I can shake a stick at. Definitely one of the best pedals on my board. | 1 |
I have been using studio equipment for 39 years.. I purchased these for my office and I added the bass. If anyone is having an issue with these they are not connecting them properly or the source is poor.
this system is outstanding....I have connected them direct to my Mac Book Pro, I have used an interface and I also used a 31 band octave eq....
They all work and sound fantastic.
I went with these simply due to the fact i use JBL professional model speakers for performances.
Never have had an issue with them. So I was very confident these would also be of the same JBL quality.
And.... they are... | 1 |
Tried several times to keep this spice rack on my cabinets. I throughly cleaned them prior to sticking up but it still does not stick properly. After several months the backing slips off. | 2 |

I travel a lot and carry on. I would leave my toner at home in the past because it was too large of a bottle to carry on. I just put the jar in my carry on bag and haven't had any TSA hassles since they don't consider it liquid.
For home use, I like it as well. It is a lot more convenient to use the pads then to have to use a bottle and cotton balls. Like one other poster mentioned, it is nice having a toner designed for men that doesn't have a smell that is meant for females. | 1 |
Really small, would be good for 3 to 5 year olds. | 2 |
...but still a great game in its own right.
I wasn't really sure what to make of this game at first. From the screen caps and the description it certainly sounded like Far Cry. Large, non-linear maps; Realistic weapons; Lots of vehicles; Stealth and sniping; Lush, vivid environments. So what if there was no mention of mutant gorillas or mad scientists tinkering with genes? It's not like they can give away the entire plot on the back of the box, right?
Well, there are no mutants, no Faustian knock-offs. Aside from the hang-gliders strewn across the map there is little here that indicates a direct inspiration from Far Cry. The storyline and characters from the original do not appear anywhere in this sequel, nor is there any tropical island scenery. Other than the machete (now your default - and unswappable - weapon) none of the guns from the original's arsenal are available. If you were looking for a nostalgic return to the islands, and possibly more cut scenes of Val in her unmentionables, then Far Cry 2 is sure to disappoint.
However, if your tastes go beyond a mere sequel, or if you have not even played the original Far Cry then you might be pleasantly surprised by this title. This is one exceptionally detailed and finely crafted game. That's not to say that it doesn't have its quirks, but overall Far Cry 2 is an astounding achievement.
Some Highlights and Irritations:
- Incredibly detailed environment: Seriously, the pseudo-african "nation" where this game takes place has been intricately and lovingly crafted. Even at the medium settings the scenery is practically photo realistic and at the ultra-high settings it becomes a framerate killing showpiece for the graphics engine. Only a dedicated gaming PC will be able to handle the top-tier settings and still remain playable, but like I said, even on medium the game's environment is gorgeous. Grass, trees, and plants sway in the breeze; zebras wander the grasslands and gazelles will sprint across the dusty roads as they hear your jeep approach. There's a day and night cycle, weather... I could list the details all day, but the point is that the scenery really lets you immerse yourself in this fictional world.
- Realistic Weapons: Far Cry 2 features real-world weapons (or exact approximations thereof) from old stand-bys like the AK-47 to the more exotic grenade and rocket launchers. You won't find any completely out of place gluon-guns or experimental laser pistols here - the core concept is realism, so your choices reflect the types of weapons (one assumes) you could actually find in a black market shop in war torn country. Each weapon is incredibly detailed, both visually and in terms of game play mechanics: each weapon has a realistic fire rate, recoil and damage associated with it. Weapon reliability also plays an important role, as guns will jam with increasing frequency over time and will eventually break altogether. Weapons picked up from fallen foes are visibly rusty and worn and extremely unreliable . This adds an interesting aspect to the game play as you have to weigh your weapon selections wisely. For longer missions you may opt for the less accurate but more reliable weapon, and out in the field you might switch to your pistol rather than risk grabbing that crummy assault rifle your enemy just dropped. There is a good range and variety of weapons - several sniper rifles, pistols, heavy and light machine guns, assault rifles and shotguns. In addition to the standard FPS arsenal you can use IED's, (basically these serve a your remotely detonated explosives), a mortar (yes, a friggin' mortar), two types of rocket and grenade launchers and a crossbow that fires explosive tipped arrows. For the stealth fans there is a scoped dart-rifle, silenced pistol, mk5 and shotgun. Grenades and Molotovs are your standard throwables.
- Destructible everything: Pretty scenery is nice but if the environment is no more than a backdrop it does little to heighten the gamin experience. Fortunately, the environment in Far Cry 2 plays an integral role, offering cover, vantage points and multiple approaches to both the player and the AI, and creating a dynamic playing field where a safe spot can suddenly become a death trap as the battle takes its toll. Some structures are entirely destructible and will come crashing down around you if hit by a grenade. Others have roofs of straw that offer little protection from mortar rounds, or corrugated walls that allow larger caliber rounds to penetrate through. Almost everything that can burn in real life - the grass, trees, wooden posts and planks, can catch fire - fuel barrels, propane tanks, and other explosive containers can be set off by brush fires or errant rounds, quickly spreading flames and chaos. In this ever changing environment you learn to scout your targets and throw your grenades wisely.
- Virtual Sandbox: The game is basically a wide-open playground that allows you to approach objectives at your own pace and with whatever tactics your prefer. If you like to run in shooting with a SAW and tossing grenades left and right then the game gives you plenty of ways to sate your appetite for explosions. If you like the silent approach then you have a decent selection of stealthier weapons to assist you, not to mention, you can choose to prowl elusively under the cover of darkness. How you enter a fight has consequences beyond the current battle: because this is a continuous map (with no loading screens) your activities will draw attention from enemy positions nearby. If you make a lot of noise you will have to deal with reinforcements - suddenly the sleepy safe house with 2 guards is swarming with Jeeps and is in the scope of a distant sniper. Alternately, if you are discovered sneaking into camp you'll find yourself engaged in a close range fire-fight where your arsenal of stealth weapons is badly outclassed.
Minor irritations:
- No leaning: Unlike Far Cry you can not lean out of cover. I don't know why this useful combat feature is not present here but it bugs me to have to not be able to lean in and out while taking cover behind a wall or doorway.
- No scope "bounce": For a game as dedicated to realism as this one, it was disappointing to find that the scoped sights don't move an iota (in real-life it is impossible to keep your hands/arms completely still. This natural movement is amplified when you view an object through binoculars or a scope, making long range targeting much more difficult). This reduces even the longest range shots to a simple matter of pointing and clicking. This is a major oversight for an FPS like this, particularly given that Far Cry had this feature.
- Invisible walls and unscalable objects: Of course there has to be some type of border somewhere, the map can't go on forever. What irks me is when you run into invisible walls in the middle of a map where the game designers simply decided they didn't want you to go. Too often you'll spot a great location to scout or snipe from only to find it is artificially inaccessible. A similarly frustrating quirk is that you sometimes will not be able to jump or climb up to a height (like a rock, or the hood of a car) that is at the players waist level. There are occasions where you get the option to climb up on something, but these appear to have been specifically programmed in. This wouldn't have been such a big deal if the diamond side quest, which has you looking for hidden suitcases containing rough diamonds, didn't frequently take you to rocky ledges and so forth where the next step up seems just above the characters ability to jump up to.
At the end of the day this is a fantastic game for those looking for a well-crafted, non-linear FPS. Highly recommended. | 1 |
This album is unlistenable, but that's the point. This is really the sort of unrefined experimental new age work that people make today. And Reed's latest release is proof that he's always had his mind on this sort of thing. Guitars are under-rated, yet extremely over-rated instruments; many things can be done with them, and too many people use them in all the same manner. Reed is one individual who doesn't take the instrument for granted, and this is proof. I personally would've liked the record better though if it did have more to it; most of what you hear in the first few minutes is just about all you hear the rest of way. | 2 |
Maybe it's just me, but why would anyone want to play a game with no sense of plot. Granted, I liked the special abilities of Naruto, but not being able to play as one of the other characters without a time limit being set was lame. I would have also liked to at least be able to do the early missions of story canon (you know, Mist village and the Chuunin exam? No spoilers there), even if the later stuff with fighting Itachi was left out. It also might have been fun to have to learn the Rasengan rather than just having it at the start, and being stuck in a "time warp" between the time of fifth Hokage and Sasuke's defection. Nothing happens that is relevant to the plot, you don't get to see much of the girls (so it's heavily male oriented without love interest, and therefore without much depth), and for bosses? Don't make me laugh, for some reason you spend nearly all your time fighting the teammates they gave you.
That being said, the one highlight of the story I actually liked was the shopgirl mission, where you got to clear out the store from thieves to set up the ninja store to buy items. But then it all sucked again, when you realized in the absence of money you had to barter everything. | 0 |
I literally could never get this product to successfully install. That was back in the Windows 7 days, and Windows 10 isn't all the different. However, this is an older version. Maybe they fixed those bugs in the latest revision. | 0 |

That's the word that most aptly describes this game. I have never played anything like this before.
"Mini-games" is not a good word to describe the games that comprise "Warioware." "Micro-games" is more like it. You'd think you can't lose with 200+ of these games, but know that each one lasts about an average of 3 seconds. Usually you can finish them by pressing one button at the right time, or moving the joystick in one direction. You're given no instructions, except for a one-word command (Shoot! Escape! Choose!), and half the fun of each game is seeing how quickly you can figure it out.
The single-player game is played by finishing 24 "micro-games" in rapid succession, followed by a longer "boss stage." This was really fun the first time I tried it, but once I got through all the stages, I had no desire to play again. And unless I overlooked it, there's no multi-player games - just the option to take turns playing one-player micro-games and compete for score.
The graphics are not good but are 100% appropriate for this type of game. Most of the micro-games have "retro" graphics and are designed to look like old Nintendo or arcade games. This was the best part of the game for me, as there are micro-games based on The Legend of Zelda, Dr. Mario, Super Mario Bros., Excitebike, Metroid, and even the old Virtual Boy games. All of the games paid homage to old arcade games in their simplicity and ancient-looking graphics.
But I'd recommend a rental for this one. The replay value seems minimal at best. If anything, I might buy this to make other people play it and see their reaction to how incredibly strange it is. But probably not. | 2 |

MAJOR disappointment: Expected FAR more from WeatherTech...
Although they do NOT manufacture the more desirable and functional "floor tray" product for my Scion xB, I had faith that these "universal" fit floor mats would maintain the legendary WeatherTech reputation for deep well debris collection and containment: The do NOT.
Shallow, SMALL (especially the two rear mats), thin - not at all what one expects from an industry leader in these types of accessories.
MUCH better off purchasing the heavy-duty "generic" mat sets available at Target or Walmart - which these WeatherTech's replaced: My original sub-$40 off-the-shelf set lasted four years before wearing through (at the driver's-side heel position), and were MUCH deeper, MUCH heavier, and MUCH larger than this disappointing WeatherTech set... | 2 |
Cooler arrived well packed, however, once I took it out, both of the name plates glued to the side fell off. Then I noticed that one whole side bowed out so that when the lid is on, you can see the white inner liner. I am not going to bother returning it, but my particular one either was assembled poorly or it was damaged somehow. If it had not had the bowed side, I would have given at least 4 stars. | 2 |
Its tef tape. I am not expecting much. This saved me from driving to town and back, thx prime shipping :D | 2 |

Wow. Just wow. I expected a suburb album and I got a classic. :-) I don't see how anyone who considers themself a prog fan could give this album anything less than five stars. It is that good.
Someone put "My Cruel World" as a title in their review. That track is on the limited edition double German import of this CD which I desperately await. | 1 |

WARNING to anyone thinking about buying this product! Please understand that you will not be buying this product only RENTING it. If you do not renew every year the product stops working....COMPLETELY! I'm not just talking about updates, etc. It actually tells you that it has stopped working and it won't work unless you renew. I have just wasted more than 2 hours with Norton's online tech support. This is the case with ALL Norton products and I am quoting the tech. | 0 |

While it works and functions well, the inputs/outputs are so...loose and fidgety. I pray everytime I put in my headphones that it won't break. For this price, I really think they should have given me more stable connections. More solid. basically, it feels really cheap and breakable. | 2 |
Not much power and not worth what I paid for it. I only used it once, then went back to my electric shrub trimmer. | 0 |

Great idea, but didn't fit my pool skimmer, even though i got the appropriate size. I wish they looked into producing for sizes for different brands of skimmers. Try it as it would be a great idea if it fits. | 2 |
The only gripe I have is that the picture at the time did not match what I purchased. This is the model with the thick wide leash and I needed the one that was more string like.
If you let your giant dog get up to 88 mph and pull this thing out of your hand it is your own fault. I enjoy letting my dog roam and they do not pull on the leash. Start using treats to train your dog...lazy. | 1 |

My first 3D printer. Was wonderful for about 4 days, then had many many issues. Heat bed failed, the GUI lcd was losing color, the filament tube was held in only with a tiny screw which led to a print failing because it pushed it lose. Fan is extremely annoying to clip on and off, a simple screw would have gone a long way.
Returned, bought another one directly from Monoprice.
Second printer had very similar problems. Power randomly cut off during print. Heatbed thermostat failed, and would not read correctly. Filament tube again came lose.
When the printer does work, it does produce some wonderful prints! However I ultimately just decided to return, and bought a DIY kit which was much better for the 200 dollar price. The DIY kit had auto leveling, bigger build plate volume, and was cheaper.
This is a wonderful printer for a beginner, however I recommend an extended warranty and perhaps some modding to get this printer working efficiently. | 2 |
This is a great stand for SOME 212 cabinets and smaller 112 cabinets. It does not fit my Line 6 Flextone III 212 amp. The back is only covered partially on the bottom about 6" up and side to side, so it would tip backwards and damage my amp from the arms on the stand. The back arms on the stand need to be at least 6"-10" taller to accommadat MOST 212 amps/cabinets that have an open back. Other than that it is solid and will hold some weight. | 2 |
This balloon lasted was Ok. The color was gray not as white as I expected a snowman to be. However, it was a hit with my grandaughters. | 2 |
This is the WORST chip I have ever tasted in my life....Now, keep in mind this is just my personal opinion, but the best way I can think of to describe it is so: Imagine you went down to whitecastle and picked yourself up a bunch of sliders...You gulp them down, and you ate so much that you got sick, and vomited it all up. Then someone comes a long and dehydrates your vomit, and compresses them into chip form and packages them up to sell to you.
To me, that's how it tastes! It has a slight sour taste combined with a very strong whitecastle(And ketchup) flavor. It was so bad, that I almost threw up. My stomach kept going into convulsions and I couldn't eat anymore.
To be fair, I gave the rest of the tube to my cousin, and he seemed to love them...So, judging by that, and most of the reviews here on Amazon, I am very much in the minority I guess. Still, for me? This is something I will never touch again, and I love Pringles, but a part of me isn't even sure if I can look at a tube of chips again without getting sick. | 0 |
I already knew something was wrong, because much of the Spam I've seen in the past six months was from resellers of Norton products. For Norton to encourage Spammers by letting them sell their products is a very bad sign.
But I have been using Norton Antivirus for several years, and McAfee's online ratings aren't much better, so -- I purchased this product online. There was a lot of confusion and I ended up with a sales basket that included the product I wanted (Norton Internet Security Professional) and also the standard (non-Pro) version I didn't want. The website also had added automatically, without asking me, the "download warranty" that lets you download again for up to one year ($6.99) for both products. I zeroed out the quantities for the three things I didn't want and went to the next page, where I expected to see only what I wanted, and a chance to confirm it before making the sale final. But no, I was charged for all four products, including the two that aren't products at all.
The run-around they put me through to request a refund was MONUMENTAL, and apparently the download warranties CAN'T be refunded. I will complain to the credit card company and get my refunds, but all this run-around is another bad sign. Is Norton in some kind of melt-down, that they have to treat customers this way? If so, what about all that support they're promising, if they go down?
Next issue: within a few minutes of installing the software, Norton blocked and reported an attempted access from the Internet, called "Default Block NetBus Trojan Horse". Great, that's what I was hoping to prevent. BUT: what was that all about? How do I know who was doing it and who do I tell, in order to get somebody put in jail? And was it real, or did Norton make it up to justify the money I spent? Based on the other issues mentioned above, I can't really trust them.
My advice: avoid Norton like the plague. | 0 |

I am very happy with this glockenspiel. My 2 year old son loves to play it - and it actually sounds good! (loud, but good). The keys are in tune, and it has withstood being thrown and banged around. It's a good, portable size, and has enough keys to play familiar songs. I also like that the mallet sticks to the bottom - one less thing to lose. I recommend it. | 1 |

So let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of this author, I l love all of her books! This one I was just having a hard time liking it, I guess it states it's a romantic comedy but I don't think there's anything romantic in it at all. The man she likes she finally kisses him in the last chapter, yeah she goes on other dates but that's about it. Also, I couldn't get over calling a man Sebby, short for Sebastian, I just thought it seemed childish like I was a 4 year old that couldn't pronounce a name. It is a funny book tho, I laughed a lot. I just don't know how you can state something is a romance book when I didn't see it. This book just wasn't up my alley, kind of boring. | 2 |

I am really happy with the Corel VideoStudio Pro X2 Software. This video editing software is a nice balance between ease of use without compromising features for most users. I like that you can Direct-to-YouTube upload. The program allows you to choose a target size for your video, which is helpful for websites with file size limits. You can get the maximum quality for the size. It also supports high-definition video and output to blu-ray players, as well as iPod format (mpeg-4) videos. You can burn your video directly to CD, DVD or Blu-Ray. The painting creator and film effects are fun to play with and are not overwhelming for users unfamiliar with video editing. I like that you can do voice-overs on the video, draw on the video or put graphical overlays. You can correct colors, brightness - which was great to take out the "blue" tint on some underwater snorkeling films my husband took using an underwater housing for our Sony camcorder. Overall I am very happy with this product. It is not as intimidating as the FinalCut program on my Mac, which I've never used because it has a very high learning curve. While FinalCut probably has more features, I prefer the Corel VideoStudio Pro X2 because you can just jump right in and experiment with. | 1 |
Put these on my 2007 Escape. Now rides rougher than it did with the 10 year old factory shocks with 90k miles on them. | 0 |
Scent is strongly related to memory, and "Amen" evokes no memory so strongly as pulling on a warm t-shirt straight from the dryer. I asked several people for an opinion, and everyone hemmed and hawed the way people do when asked about scents. So I suggested "laundry?", and to a man their response was "Yes!, that's it!". So, if that's the effect you want, go for it. Full disclosure: I've been ruined by my long-term love affair with Chanel's Platinum Egoiste. No competition. | 2 |
Different type of scifi/drama. Has a unique flare to the premise. In retrospect a scary idea of totalitarianism in concept. | 2 |

Mediocre sitcom at best. Sometimes loud and obnoxious. Won't be springing for the rest of the series anytime soon. | 2 |
Ashcroft Glassware provides a set of two rocker whisky glasses that are both functional and stylish. The box itself is refined, bearing the Ashcroft crowned lion emblem. The set
features high quality, ultra-clarity glass with a curved bottom that allows it to rock without tipping over. The product adds a classy touch to ones own collection, or as a high-end gift.
I appreciate that the seller, Ashcroft Products LLC, contacted me with useful information prior to testing. "Testing" the product refers to the fact that I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
I highly recommend Rocker Whiskey Glasses by Ashcroft Glassware as a high quality product. If you found this review to be helpful, please click the yes button below. | 1 |
An amazing new ya series that combines Greek mythology with the supernatural. | 1 |
Developer Running With Scissors was obviously trying to cash in on the popularity of Rockstar's "Grand Theft Auto" series, and they failed miserably. The game is boring and pointless.
The plot is simple: the player assumes the role of "The Postal Dude" and, each day, sets off to complete a list of boring tasks, like going to the store for milk. Invariably each mundane task ends in disaster as various nutty groups in the game burst in and start shooting.
The game plays up the "choice" the player has, whether to be passive or to "go postal" with various weapons. There's no reason to play passive, and the novelty of the over-the-top violence gets old fast. Characters spout inane dialog, and the only high point of the game is when Gary Coleman (yes, Gary Coleman) makes an appearance at a mall which, of course, ends in a gun battle.
Although powered by the Unreal engine, Postal 2 looks drab. Out of the box, the game has some serious bugs, including ridiculously long load times between levels. This gets frustrating fast as there are so many level changes to get from point A to point B. A recent patch has fixed this issue, but the game remains a pointless exercise in futility.
Sometimes the saving grace for a bad single-player game can be the multiplayer option. "Postal 2" does not have multiplayer. Instead, you have to actually purchase the multiplayer add-on for $9.95. Running With Scissors might have scored an extra star had it released the multiplayer part for free, as was the case with the "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" multiplayer expansion, "Enemy Territory," which started life as an expansion to RTCW and ended up being a free stand-alone product.
You're better off spending the $20 on the vastly superior "Grand Theft Auto III" or, for ten bucks more, "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City." Either choice is a better one than the terminally boring "Postal 2." | 0 |
Battery life is horrible! I I have wired an ac powered dc power supply to each of them and NO more batteries.
I see that some have gone to AA batteries and another to C batteries.
There power supply works fine and NO batteries now! Wife hates vanilla (strong) scent; she has allergies and these are bad have diminished to tolerable now for her and me. | 2 |
they're thin, just like "underwear" - and will only hold a dribble - so, i'm guessing we're not quite ready for these over here... but they're cute as can be, and although a little plastic-crinkly where the plastic liner pad is, i'm sure they'll do just fine once she's slightly more trained. | 2 |

I live in an arid climate and have used the weeper hoses for ten years to water a small orchard and for other purposes. A few points:
1. The short hoses are easier to use than the longer and I would use two 25s in preference to a fifty.
2. The brands are all pretty much alike -- may all be made in the same factory.
3. This is a good price.
4. I will continue to buy these but the last two just broke totally in two sections after only a few days use. I am hoping that I got a bad batch and that the next batch is better. If not, I will have to look into something else. | 2 |
I am finding that it is easier to just keep my dies in the original boxes. Takes a little more space. Case is on the light side. Plastic hinged that is just bent/thinned plastic between side and lid. | 0 |
The title says it all. I got a few boxes of these and then bought a case of 60. I love them. They're non-abrasive and don't leave particles behind on the surfaces you clean. | 1 |
boring, childish,..the story panders to blacks hatred of white people,..ok I get that, but it ends up being so condescending it's embarrassing. Like..wow, amazing,..blacks aren't so stupid after all, they can actually (fill in blank...ride a horse, learn german, shoot a gun, speak english, outsmart bad guys,...yuck, stuff that normal white people do all the time is somehow cause for great surprise and admiration if a black guy can do it,..yeah, an extension of black history month, pure liberal condescension,..like, wow, my dog stood on 2 legs,..he's almost as good as a real human!)
The movie was way too long, like they forgot to edit it. You could walk away for 20 minutes and not miss anything. The story made zero sense, and it's obvious they knew it,..they had to keep explaining it over and over WHY they couldn't just go and buy the female slave like everyone else (because the movie would be over in 10 minutes) | 0 |
