The Wolf Man

Ok, this is another Universal monster movie, but an excellent one! The money spent on this production was pretty hefty. Claude Rains, Ralph Bellamy, Lon Chaney Jr. and others. Wow! Poor Lon Chaney Jr. loves a girl but gets attacked by a wolf. Poor guy, he ends up having some really sleepless nights when a full moon appears. What to do? Maybe Bela Legosi as a gypsy can help? Or that lady gy read more..

Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Earpiece (Black)[Retail Packaged]

I have had real bad cell service using my iPhone with the $100.00 iPhone bluetooth. In fact I had 3 exchanges at the MAC store with no measurable increase in quality of service. The Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Earpiece worked right out of the box. Some clients think I am at my desk on a land line, that is how great the Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Earpiece works! Best of all No Dr read more..

PHILIPS Hi-Def 1080p Up-Conversion Multi Region Zonefree DVD Player with DivX HD

I've been wanting to play my region 2 dvds on a dvd player seamlessly. I got this item because it's cheap and I didn't need bells and whistle. It does a good job playing dvds. The dvd tray responds a little slow and the remote just has the basics except an eject disc button. read more..

Manfrotto 190XPROB 3 Section Aluminum Pro Tripod

I wanted a decently affordable tripod with good stability, less weight and I was definitely sure that I wanted a "Manfrotto". After lot of research, visits to many local camera stores and playing around with several pieces i found this one meeting my needs. Light weight (around 4 pounds) & pretty good stable for my Rebel Xti with 70-200 mm on it.
Maximum load (11 lbs). One thing i didn't lik read more..

Jaws

JAWS is probably the best film ever made in a century besides Citizen Kane. Otherwise, Jaws still frightens millions of people. read more..

Why Good People Do Bad Things: How to Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy

This book is profound and I highly recommend it as a must read for anyone that is interested in making positive changes in their own life as well as being able to understand others.
This book systematically goes through the many masks we wear as well as aspects of ourselves that need tending to in order to grow.

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel

I am disappointed once again with a hyped-up book. I thought it would be a beautiful story about a mute boy and his beloved dogs, but it wasn't! The first part was all I'd hoped I'd be reading until the whole thing turned south. Instead of being a beautiful story, it rather quickly turned dark and ugly, and became a haunting tragedy. I don't like misery and disheartening sadness, and want to know read more..

Team of Rivals

Professor Matthew Pinsker has an interesting (cautionary) critique of Goodwin's book, Op-Ed section 11/18/08 LA Times: "Lincoln and The Myth of Team of Rivals." He offers some good points to keep in mind while enjoying the book. The three stars are what Pinsker might have given, maybe four. read more..

Apple iPod touch 8 GB (2nd Generation)

My laptop died. I use it when I travel, to get email, surf the net, etc. Also carry my iPod classic, for tunes on the road. Well, the Touch does it all. Get my email, surf the net, listen to music AND watch movies ! A great device that delivers all it promises. No, you can't type word docs or do Excel spreadsheets, but I really never used my laptop on the road for that anyway. The App store read more..

The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Lit

I downloaded a sample of this book on to my kindle and found myself laughing out loud the first couple chapters. So, I went ahead and bought the book. The problem was it just wasn't that great. The author is funny and clever, but the book was a whole lot of the same thing throughout. I got bored halfway. I found myself skimming for a while until I got to the part where he lives the new testament, read more..

Head Wearing Magnifier Can Be Used Hands Free And Worn Over Glasses. Has Dual Ma

I've tried several different magnifiers, this one is my favorite. The lenses are clear and give a good field of view without a lot of chromatic aberration. I really like the extra flip down lenses for additional magnification, this is great for close up work.
It is mostly plastic so I don't know how well it will hold up, but at $20 I wasn't expecting it to be too robust. Given the price I a read more..

Black & Decker 12 Amp 2-Speed Electric Leaf Hog Blower / Vacuum With Leaf Bag #

I just purchased this unit today and used it for about 3 hours. I must say I am impressed. It works well as a blower, and I was particularly impressed with its performance as a vacuum.

I shredded 13 large bags of leaves. If the math is to be believed (16 to 1 reduction ratio) that would mean that I would have had to bag 208 bags of leaves. Obviously that is a little overstated, bu read more..

Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution

I really wanted to love Civilization: Revolution, and I almost do. It's addicting and fun, but it also has a few snags. There are a number of civilizations you can choose from, all with their strengths and weaknesses. They are not equally balanced, but it is fun to try to win with all of them.

The gameplay is not as sophisticated as I remember the PC version being, although I admit read more..

Cook's Illustrated

I ordered a couple of magazines as gifts through Amazon, including Cook's Illustrated. A few months later, I started getting other magazines sent to me at my home address that I did not order. Then, charges for these magazines appeared on my credit card. I am still dealing with these mysterious charges on my credit card. Do not order magazines through Amazon - your credit card number will be u read more..

Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations

I am very pleased with my purchase. The book is excellent and was delivered in a timely manner and in superb condition. read more..

The Slip [Vinyl]

The downward spiral indeed. Reznor continues his artistic liberations via no record contracts, although it is becoming more and more clear that, unlike Radiohead, Nine Inch Nails used that platform to capitalize on it's popularity and fan base by releasing sometimes less restrained, but almost always less detailed songs. The Slip works well enough to provide ample counterpoint to his last snooze-f read more..

Samsung NC10-14GW 10.2-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel Atom Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160

The best netbook on the market at present. The 10" form factor is small enough to be portable but big enough to comfortably view and type on. I considered the MSI Wind and ASUS 10" netbooks, but the Samsung seemed worth the higher price for the better keyboard layout and better looks and more solid case. The 6 cell battery makes it weigh a little more than I'd like, but getting 6+ hours out of the read more..

Angels' Eyes Tear-Stain Eliminator for Dogs, 120-Gram Bottle

We used Angel Eyes on our Bichon Frise who had terrible staining. My husband put it on her canned food every morning and the stains went away! Our supply ran out, we didn't re-order, and the stains came back. Needless to say, we're ordering another supply! read more..

The Beach House

I loved this book. I wasn't surprised, as I am a huge Jane Green fan, and this book did not disappoint. The book was so richly detailed that you feel like you're right there on Nantucket! Bottom line, if you're looking for a deep, philosophical read, this ain't it, but if you want something fun and engrossing, pick up this book! read more..

J.A. Henckels 8 Piece Stylus Block Set

I bought this set as a Christmas present, but had to check it out before I wrapped it. I have a Henckels block and some Henckels knives as well, both the cheaper Chinese "International" and some more expensive German ones as well. The "International" Henckels knifes I have are wooden-handled, poorly balanced, flimsy and somewhat poorly made. I wanted to be sure that these knives didn't suffer fr read more..

UPS Driver Toddler Costume (2T-4T)

This item is really versatil. I bought two for my two boys (2 & 3) and they fit perfectly. I put long shirts and long underpants and no one got uncomfortable. The hat just needs to be a little sturdy, or more like a hat; it was too soft to keep on the head. read more..

The Appeal (Random House Large Print (Cloth/ Paper))

This book was lousy, just another in the long line of flops for Grisham. I miss the old style of great story telling, this was to slow, never really got my attention, I read a lot of other books, kept coming back to this one to finish, finally my wife said, just put it away. I did, save your money on this one. I'm still holding out for a great story to come along. read more..

In Odd We Trust

Dean Koontz's thoroughly enjoyable and readable Odd Thomas series gets the graphic novel treatment in the paperback IN ODD WE TRUST. The series has been a bestseller for Koontz for years, and here he fills in some of the missing details of Odd's life. IN ODD WE TRUST is a prequel, an original story that begins before the first book in the series.

The premise of Odd's life is that he s read more..

Brisingr (Inheritance, Book 3)

First off, Mr. Paolini lied to us. Trillogies are supposed to be in three volumes. He has decided to go for more money by expanding the series to four books. Secondly Brisinger has gone off the deep end in detailed descriptions of everything from every blade of grass that moves to each spatter of blood in the battles. The author has endevored to remove all imagination from the reader. He has read more..
