0 | Kahlil Gibran said it better | OK, OK, you made me cry......And I really did cry at parts of this book. And I have no doubt that Morrie was right in his approach to life. We could all do with more of his insights. But I kept thinking periodically, what is going on with his relationship with his wife, his closer family? Where are they as he dies?Well, let's give Mitch a break. It IS about Mitch's reactions to this man dying. (A little like my old college room mate calling me up after lo these may years and saying: "Rusty, we haven't touched base for 25 years, and I was sitting here smoking my pipe, talking with my wife and kids, and sudenly I found myself thinking we'll be dead in 20 years and I ought to find out how the hell you are.")But Gibran said it more completely, poetically, and ultimately more universally 76 years ago when The Prophet was published. | negative |
1 | Super cute, but... | super cute but they rub pretty bad on the heel. get some heel protectors!not bad for the price though. i would buy them again. | positive |
1 | The Grandpa Tree reviewed by J.G. | The Grandpa Tree is about a pine tree mighty pine tree that takes care of the younger pine trees around it. It grows up watching the smaller trees and protects them from harm. The tree saves them from being buried in deep snow by holding out his branches to catch all of it and sheilds them from the wind.I felt the book had a very good moral about taking care of youth and people younger than us. That moral is heavily shown throughout the book as the tree grows and looks after the younger trees.J.G. | positive |
0 | Actually, 2,5 stars... | This is just ok. Nothing else. But don't waste money buying it. There are MUCH better action movies... | negative |
0 | Battery Lasted 2 months | This "Powerpack" lasted 2 months before it stopped charging. Don't buy it for a power source and there's less expensive air compressors! | negative |
0 | Not For Children | This is a photographic story-picturebook. This book was (presumably) intended for children, but it verges on being a horror story.The book bumbles along with the narrator talking about her daddy the policeman, but no warning of the dark turn to come. All of a sudden, near the end, you turn the page and see a photo of a body face-down on wet asphalt with the line, "I hope my Daddy remembered to wear his raincoat." This juxtaposition of the image and the text would be confusing to a young child exposed to the story. It's the father, and he's dead, as you find out two pages later when the narrator states (on the final page), "My Daddy was a policeman."It would take a lot of explaining (or would be impossible) to make this not be a traumatic story for a youngster to read or have read to him or her. | negative |
0 | I've had no luck on non-stick | I seasoned it per instructions, fried bacon and other fatty foods, found meat, eggs stuck. Re-seasoned per other instructions, fried only fatty foods, etc. Never used soap, oiled a bit after use. After a month,I'm resigned to spraying with PAM for anything that isn't fatty. The only things I find it better at than my non-stick pans is searing meat. | negative |
0 | Needs to Strengthen Itself | This book was not very well written. I thought that the regimen was way too easy and that the programs moved along at a terribly slow pace. Also, the coaches from Nebraska didn't seem to know what they were talking about. I don't think they are very good coaches. | negative |
0 | Outstanding Series Ruined by Sony | This poor review is in no way a reflection on the content of the series. The shows are groundbreaking in their content. The series, however, has been ruined by Sony's rapaciousness. I purchase many series on DVD; this is the first that is so poorly packaged. Sony has stacked all the DVDs on top of one another in a single case sans a single sleeve or partition. This risks serious scratches befalling the DVDs even from normal and careful handling. Sony has used this type of irresponsible packaging for the entire series on DVD. Sony's greed is unacceptable! | negative |
1 | Not the Hitchhiker's Guide Series,.. but still good | A previous reviewer has noticed that this work is really nothing like the Hitchhiker's Guide books. While this is true, this does not make this a bad book. It is just that it is almost in a different genre.If you were expecting the hilarity that is the HGTTG series, you may be surprised. But if you enjoy detective stories that make you think, you'll love these books. Just realize that Adams often doesn't expressly tie up all the loose ends: he expects the reader to be able to reason well enough to figure it out. | positive |
0 | Good for hardcore Skinny Puppy fans | I like them quite a bit, but no song really captured my attention. Mediocre album. Disappointing. | negative |
0 | Expect the Unexpected | If you're a huge EG fan, as I am, this book will not be what you've come to expect from her series. It took me a few weeks to blast through her entire series -- I was hooked at Book One. So, this new one was eagerly awaited, but sadly it disappointed. It's hugely confusing, and really didn't present any sympathetic characters. The lack of detail about Havers and Lynley left this book feeling flat. I think Peach (the St. James' dog) had more exposure than St. James. | negative |
1 | This is better than private lessons! | Brooke is the only person who can keep my attention for 45 minutes! She does it by talking you through every step of the workout with such calm, clear and helpful instructions. She really gets me to work my "core" and I end up sweating and feeling exhilarated everytime I do it.She never stops talking you through the lesson, therefore you are able to stay focused. I cannot get that great of a workout from even private lessons at my club. Brooke's DVD is the best instruction tape I have ever purchased. Definitely buy this DVD. You will not be SORRY. | positive |
1 | Good, but . . . | Gavrilov's etudes are well-executed to be sure, yet without much tonal subtlety and a true legato. His typically aggressive approach can be exciting but I usually turn to other albums before this one. Recorded sound lacks warmth. | positive |
0 | Kind of boring, but not completely bad... | I read the 1931 version. This book is signifigant because it introduces Bess and George, but otherwise it's sort of boring. It was written more like the western adventure books that were being written at the time rather than Nancy Drew mystery story for the most part, but it was still okay, and well written, at least. | negative |
1 | great bioelement product | The product is one of the better exfoliation I have purchased. It has a fragrance like you would get at a spa and feels wonderful. The best of its kind for now. I would highly recommend the item. It feels like silk with a very fine exfoliant.It arrived a little slow but it was by no fault of the shipper. The mail delivery system can be slow. Excellent service from seller and product. | positive |
1 | Good For Everyday Household Use | I picked one of these up based strictly on price. I am not really 'into' knives and I have no other sharpeners to compare this to, but I think this 'no-frills' product has done a darn good job on my kitchen knives. I have a couple Santuko (sp?) knives I bought in the past year and it brought these right back into like-new condition. Most impressive though, was an older chef's knife that I've had for probably 20 years, which for the most part has been useless except on things like onions and carrots. In just a few minutes, and with no effort whatsoever, The knife was sharpened up nicely. It did the classic 'slice-though-the-sheet-of-white-paper' action with ease. I recommend this for the average home chef just looking to put that nice edge back on your knives. I am very happy with it and am so glad I didn't waste lots more money getting a more expensive sharpener. | positive |
1 | My favorite thing in my kitchen | These pans are pure pleasure to cook on. Everything is so fast and meat gets so tender. I love browning meat in them. My family laughs but most of the meals I cook these days are born in these pots. Highly recommend. | positive |
0 | What a disappointment!! | I should have listened to the people who watched this video and didn't like it. It was poorly done with a dry, almost non-existent plot. Watched it once and it went to the dumpster! | negative |
0 | Very Disappointing | While Ajami's analysis is engaging and literate, the author's bias shows throughout the book. Ajami refuses to call the terrorist group Hizbullah by its name, instead referring to it in translation as the "Party of God," and thereby hoping to deflect the reader's attention away from the true nature of this organization. He also translates jihad as "struggle," again in a revisionist attempt to bury the violence that certain sects of Islam have engendered in the name of holy war. He refuses to call the Yom Kippur War by its accepted name. Worst of all, in all of his references to the terrorsit mastermind Dr. George Habash, Ajami never once informs a reader that he is writing about a man who bombed school buses filled with children. This kind of selective ignorance has plagued many Arab accounts of the Middle East for years. Unfortunately, Ajami's work is no exception. | negative |
0 | Not "Ultimate" for sure. | I purchased this CD for about $5. Disc one was like being at church on any regular day. I did not hear much classical Christmas music, but lots of choir music. And, the first song was such a disappointment. I really loved this song and the rendition of it was just too mellow with one sorrowful voice and no instrumental backup. Disc two was better with more of the classics being played the way I remembered. My only favorite was the March from the Nutcracker Ballet performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra. Both discs were quite boring and very down beat for the most part. I was not inspired to bake cookies, shop for presents nor decorate. I did get myself a shot of Jack Daniels, though. | negative |
0 | Inferior after market battery | I purchased this battery hoping it would give me a reasonable amount of service. I charged the battery and I got about 10 minutes of run time. I would not buy anything from this company ever again. I don't think they ever tested it, inferior product period.>>>>> | negative |
1 | fast shipping...poor customer service with amazon | Love the product was worth the buy, however customer service was poor. Was on the phone for over an hour to use my gift card towards the purchase. The operator said everything went thru. A few weeks letters I get my credit card bill to discover they charged my credit card!!! They still have yet to refund these charges and claim there is not billing phone to reach them by it has to be thru email. | positive |
0 | Wireless static, with rechargeable batteries!!! | Some of us have HD radio, some have digital tuning, and some use those old-school dials to try to tune in properly. These headphones are like tuning in to the wrong channel...Want a quick preview of how this works? Do you have a local station at 104.3? Then tune in to 104.1 or 104.5 - that is as good as these headphones will be.We tried all sorts of tuning and adjustments on these headphones, and at it's *BEST*, it still had loud static. I have looked at other reviews and comments, where some people say the issue is wireless phones and wireless internet. Which basically means these would be good WHERE?Returned, good riddance. | negative |
0 | Very short, and not very interesting | Like another reviewer said, this was mainly footage of the Beatles arriving at various airports. I had a headache after I watched it, from listening to all the young girls screaming!There are two Beatles DVDs with the same title "The Beatles Around the World". I had thought I was getting a concert DVD, but ended up with this one. Make sure to read the description carefully before buying. The DVD cover pictures are different too. | negative |
0 | save your cash | This game [edit]. It is impossible to control. The cars look like mini-vans. Pretty background though. | negative |
1 | Tennis whodunnit does not disappoint | Having a vested interest in tennis, I have always enjoyed stories with tennis in the background including the movies 'Match Point','Wimbledon' and 'Strangers on a Train'. The combination of tennis and Harlan Coben was therefore hard to resist. Coben always tends to write tightly plotted novels that do not just plod along but actually race with several twists along the way to the finish line. With the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament as the setting of the initial murder, the story integrates this with an earlier murder of a senator's son and a few other killings along the way. Nothing is obvious and what seems obvious changes constantly and the author devilishly takes the reader from one wrong assumption to another to a satisfactory conclusion. Definitely worth reading even if one is not into tennis. | positive |
1 | Great Memories | Like other readers Halliburton's Book of Marvels had a profound impact on my life. I first read the book over 60 years ago and even at that time it instilled in me a desire to travel. I have been fortunate to live a dream that Halliburton made possible for me. His work started my personal journey.Last year I reread the book. The wonderment I had as a youngster all came back. | positive |
1 | Good And Very Entertaining | My 5 year old granddaughter really enjoys watching this whole series. She wants to watch them over and over. They all seem to have great lessons and messages for kids to learn. This one was good and very entertaining. | positive |
1 | WE LOVE BANANA NUTRAMENT | AS A MEAL REPLACEMENT, NUTRAMENT IS GREAT AND TASTE JUST LIKE A SHAKE BUT ONLY HAS 360 CALORIES, LOW SODIUM AND IT'S A ENGERY DRINK. IT'S GREAT AND VERY FAVORABLE | positive |
0 | Iffy | This book was interesting but it shows that Pat Brown really is not a profiler. If she is considered a profiler, I feel bad for the professionals. I suggest this book as a read for fun but not an educational read. | negative |
0 | Doesnt close tight. | The seal doesn't seem to have a tight close on it meaning it will lose humidity quickly. Good size for the money but your Gurkha is going to smoke like a Quorum. | negative |
1 | very nicely done | I thought this book was really good......yeah it had its slow moments but dosent every book....but just as he always does pike brings it all together and makes a smashing finish.....i loved it...i thought it was really an emotional part at the end when rela is talking with her grandfather.....i thought this book was really sad...i cried ALOT!!!...but it was still a wounderful book!! | positive |
1 | One of Bonett's Best | I've read nearly all of the Bonett books, by John and/or Emery, and this was the best plotted. All of their books have in common very good writing and characterization. Most of them, however, have murders easy to spot. This was not the case here and the writing is in top form.My two favorites of theirs include this one and Murder in Costa Brava with the incomparable Professor Mandrake. Inspector Borges, in several of their other novels, is a good detective as well, but there's just something endearing about Mandrake. This one has neither detective to solve the case, but the characters are similarly likeable, sharp, and a pleasture to get to know.Check out the Bonett novels if you're an Agatha Christie--and Golden Age--fan. The puzzlers may not be as puzzling as some others, but you get the same great writing and interesting characters to boot. | positive |
1 | The album that got Reo on the radio | Reo's Live you get what you play for was the album that finally broke them into the mainstream. Reo had been a popular live act for a few years, but they could never translate that popularity into record sales. They came up with the idea of releasing a live album and the record company thought it was worth a shot and it worked for them. With Live you get what you play for Reo got a lot of radio exposure and a hit single with the live version of Ridin the Storm, which is the best version of the song that has been captured on tape. Live You Get What You Play serves as a great introduction to Reo's early years. | positive |
1 | The BEST Garage Sale Book ever! | This is an incredible book for sellers and buyers as well! Just one of his tips has earned me four times the price of this book. This is the perfect book for Ebayers or bargain shoppers--or those who just want to declutter or make a few extra bucks.A++++++++++++++++ | positive |
1 | ENTERTAINING MOVIE | If you need an escape for an hour and a half, and love female vampyres like i do, watch this movie. Very entertaining. Love this movie,One of my favorite movies. | positive |
1 | Eisbrecher Rocks! | Any fan of German lyrics over dark industrial riffs will appreciate this CD! I am also a Rammstein fan, but after I listened to this CD I decided to feed my addiction by purchasing the first Eisbrecher CD and all of the Megaherz CD's. I have yet to be disappointed - Germans ROCK! | positive |
0 | Misleading Book Description | When I read the back of the book I expected a mystery novel not a novel where almost every character is gay and the overriding theme of the book is not a mystery as advertised but rather, the homosexual exploits of the characters. This book should have been in the "gay & lesbian" section instead of "fiction". I have nothing against gays & lesbians in books or anywhere else, however, I think that when the topic is so prevalent throughout the book, there should be some small indication on the book jacket description. | negative |
1 | I'd really like to give it 5 stars but....... | ... The story sounded sort of like "The Joy Luck Club" for young adults. I was right. The story is incredibly moving and most readers will find themselves in one of the 4 girls. Their summers may not be ordinary and some parts of the story may seem unbelievable, such as Bridget and her soccer coach, but anyone who reads this has or eventually will go through a defining period like the ones that the four girls go through. However I did have one problem with the book, the story switched around much too quickly leaving readers hanging at crucial points which the author might have thought was building suspense, but really only made me frustrated. An excellent effort and I anxiously await the second one. | positive |
0 | Too small | Item was of good quality but much too small for my taste. I think more size description should be given. | negative |
0 | Buy something else | the spout keeps popping off then loses its spring to keep it in place. for what we paid for it I'd rather buy something else | negative |
0 | Caveat Emptor | If you're considering a Karcher electric power washer, you should know that Karcher will not warranty their products unless they're purchased at an "approved outlet." They play this little game by talking about that requirement on their website, but fail to mention that if you buy from eBay or anyone else they consider "not authorized," you get no warranty whatsoever.I'm out $200 because, as one of the people they have the nerve to call a 'customer care representative' told me, "You should have read the warranty card that came with your product."When asked how a consumer could accomplish that before purchase, considering the warranty card is inside the box with the washer, she was stumped for an answer. When I asked why they don't disclose on their website that they won't warranty products from unapproved retailers, more silence ensued.Very disappointing to encounter a high-profile brand with deceptive business practices. | negative |
0 | Undrinkable - but you could eat it. Maybe... | We tried the most basic recipe in this book as a special treat over the Christmas holidays. I'm sorry to say, that while we were looking forward to rich cups of chocolate (our first love), we didn't have cups of steaming ganache in mind. Make no mistake, you'd better be really into chocolate to buy this book. We thought we were, but two melted Lindt bars later (that's for 2.5 cups of chocolate), we quickly learned there IS such a thing as too much chocolate. | negative |
0 | Wrong Translation. | The kindle edition is NOT the N.J. Dawood translation that is found in the Penguin paperback edition. Saying that a completely different translation is the same book is very misleading. | negative |
0 | A 1-star rating is pretty generous | Korn is a bunch of posers trying to make people think they are really cool by combining metal and rap. I'm not a fan of rap, but real rappers would laugh these losers out of the building just like real metalheads. Eventually, fans will find out they're just a bunch of punk losers and dismiss them. I can't wait for that to happen. | negative |
1 | Love conquers all | Not a particularly involved plot, but then I've seen just about all there are, but a very nice little film. My first viewing of Teri Polo and I must say she is the star of the film. Got the impression it was a near-copy of the Horse Whisperer. If it was, it was poorly done. If you're going to steal someone's work, at least copy exactly the good parts.LIked it because of my pleasure of seeing lovers finally overcoming the odd and ride off into the forever sunset to a perfect world.Fiction, of course, but fun to view. | positive |
1 | Wow - Look at the debate | There are a lot of negative reviews. This book is designed as an interesting story to make us think about what we believe.The arguments about the book could pretty much apply to Michael Moore's films.I found this book to be interesting. Not great - I usually don't find many of Crithton characters all that interesting - but the science backdrop is usually entertaining.This book delivers that. | positive |
0 | Word of Caution | I hesitated to write a review but after reading farther into the book I had to. The author suggests using such things as balloons, marbles, pennies, etc. as part of her activities which I strongly feel are not age appropriate "toys". I know some will read this and think that close adult supervision is all that is needed, however, if you're contemplating buying this book, you probably know how quick a toddler can be.With that said, there are some good suggestions in the book, my daughter enjoys them. Some though I will keep until she's a little older. | negative |
0 | Poorly designed | WARNING: This powerhead might be ok for an aquarium with large fish but if you have small fish, they will get sucked into it :/Lost two tiger barbs already because they got sucked into the black bottom portion of the powerhead.It's noisy, the adjustable portion on the back doesn't fit wider tanks, and overall, it's just poorly designed. | negative |
0 | THE ORIGINAL WAS WAY BETTER, THIS STINKS!! | Well, if you were as excited as I was when I saw the PAC-MAN Fever album was finally on CD, you need to come back to earth. THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS! They rerecorded it all. My favorite song, "Do the Donkey Kong" was trashed. So it's back to playing my old album, which does still sound good. My suggestion is to go look on auction websites and try to find the original recording on LP or Cassette. Of course I won't be selling mine. Unforunatly, CBS records is not releasing the original from 1982 on CD yet, and may never. K-TEL did the new release on CD. Which that's why I'm all that more discouraged. K-Tel did good in the 70's releasing records that are alot like the "NOW" CDs. If any questions please contact me at: [email protected]. | negative |
1 | the best disney princess dolls | i believe this ariel doll is the most beautiful of the little princess line. she comes in an outfit like the one in the movie, with a green star hair clip. her fin is removable to show a swimsuit underneath. ariel has her traditional fiery red hair(very silky) and big, bright blue-green eyes. ariel is very fun, with her accessories. the tropical platter really floats in water and flounder can sqirt water. she also comes with a brush, pineapples, strawberries, and oranges to have your very own pool party! ariel is a very durable and beautiful doll, soemthing you dont see much of these days | positive |
0 | DTS Pressings Defective | As another reviewer mentions below, there were several defective pressings of the DTS version of this video. I ordered a copy for my adult son's birthday. My son is an avid surround sound user, and noticed immediately he had one of the defective pressings (and fyi,you can't tell until you open the package and read the numbers pressed on the disc whether you have a good one or not). So we returned it to Amazon, and they sent us another defective one. Since this trading game could have gone on forever, I wrote an email to Universal Studios customer service who very quickly traded the defective copy for a good one. Beware of Amazon's inventory. Unless they have returned all the old ones to Universal to get good ones, you still might be at risk of an old pressing that will not give good surround sound. This problem is the only reason I gave 1 star. I would like to have rated it N/A or blank, but the website software wouldn't allow it. | negative |
1 | The best trance CD ever!!! Hands down. | Although Paul Oakenfold's "Tranceport" is up there, along with Digweed's "GU Hong Kong" and PVD's "Out There and Back"..."Buenos Aires" is to me the king of them all!I've probably listened to this masterpiece over a 100 times and I always get that magic feeling that only great music creates.Enjoy. | positive |
0 | not a good buy. | I recently purchased this door bell for my company. At first it worked great. After I unplugged the unit from the wall is when i started receiving problems. Now the door bell wont work at all. | negative |
1 | Better than you might think. | For the price they aren't bad headphones. A little bulky for a travel headphone, but so are several other models from other manufacturers. I liked the way they fold up (if a bit tricky to complete) and the amount of "noise reduction" ("noise canceling" is a misleading term on all of them) of 15dB. For the price that's pretty good. Other costing more give you less noise reduction. Mine are brand new so I haven't seen the problems described in the other reviews. They also don't quite have the bass response some people might be looking for. The real test is when I use them on a plane. | positive |
0 | Oh BOY | I love the graphics digitized graphics awesome one thing though gameplay much.Why couldn't have been a simple beat up the bad guys progress to the next level game Graphics over gameplay classic mistake. To use a gadget you have to put in a button combination like Mortal Kombat even the fighting engine was like Mortal Kombat. To get above and below areas is a chore. If I told you how to get above and to get below areas you'd be like WTF. Play Batman Forever Arcade on PS1 & Sega Saturan or download it on MAME 32 don't take my word for it Play it I dare ya? It's not as bad as some of the review's say but boy is this game baaaaaaaaaaaaad! | negative |
1 | Your collection is "incomplete" w/o BSB' "Never Gone!!" | "Never Gone" is a great comeback CD. The songs show kind of a flashback to their old music, but it's still so different at the same time. They have grown so much. The power ballad single, "Incomplete" shows their growth as well as where they come from. Fun pop songs, "Just Want You To Know, "Climbing the Walls," and "I Still...," along w/ many others, are fun to sing at the top of your lungs. They also show a serious side in "Never Gone"- the title track co-written by the group's own Kevin Richardson. It's a song in memory of Richardson's late father. "Weird World" is about a post 9-11 world. This CD is so amazing. They have a more mature sound. Go out and buy this CD!! You won't regret it! | positive |
1 | Wings of Refuge | I have enjoyed reading other books by Lynn Austin, Christian books with a Jewish background. This book especially in story form I purchased because she presented a good way to show Jesus was the Son of God to the Jews who love God and accept that Jesus lived but don't recognize Him for who He really is. I hope some time her thoughts can help me share with someone. | positive |
1 | picture perfect | i love books by jodi picoult...she keeps me wanting to read 'just one more chapter' she's hard to put down! i have read just about all of her current books... | positive |
0 | Not a good buy | These boots are not knee length and have no zipper, which made it really hard to put on. I didn't like it at all and ended up returning the item. | negative |
0 | not as advertised | very dissapointed when product arrived I immediately noticed the box had been opened and retaped. The product had been advertised by the seller as new. When I opened the box I noticed all sealed packages had been opened. It was missing the second remote for the 2 room (RF remote). could tell what pieces were missing because all packaging had been opened. In something like this I bought new because with so many pieces for install it is importatnt to know you have all of them. when I contacted seller they gave me the story that in thier opinion it was new because it was never hooked up due to some bull of a story they gave me in an email. anyway I returned the item to the seller and am waiting for my refund they recieved it back on 10-6 and still no refund.What's up with that! | negative |
1 | Loved it! | I thought this book was great, fast reading. I work in research so it held my interest through the whole thing! | positive |
1 | No CD with Blu ray | My only complaint is the Blu-ray version does not come with the audio CD like the DVD copy does AND it costs more. So unfortunately if you want the audio by itself for your music library you'll have to sacrifice Blu-ray video quality for DVD, which is probably just fine. I'm just bummed about paying more for less. | positive |
1 | The Agony and The Ecstasy... I love it. | Alright i'm not gonna give it a 5 since I didn't read the book. but I think it is the most brilliant of movies about Michelangelo. and I've always respected every role Charlton Heston has done.plan and simple. I love this film. | positive |
1 | This Hitchcock classic isn't for the birds | I had viewed this film for a class I was taking in college, with no real intention of paying too much attention except for the music (it was a music in film class). Surprisingly I enjoyed this film immensly! The only other Hitchcock film I had seen is 'The Birds', which I enjoyed but I found it kind of predictable. However, 'North by Northwest' is constantly turning you in different directions so you don't really know what to expect next. I havn't bought this DVD yet, but it will soon be added to my collection. | positive |
1 | Great for Training | I will admit, I ordered the wrong size, but that aside,this is a GREAT product. My dog trainer introduced me to itwhen I was training my Malamute, a natural puller. It didn't takelong for him to realize he shouldn't pull. I then used it formy Black & Tan Coon Hound, a scent hound through and through.While I had hoped for the same results, this pup is just goingto pull toward any scent he picks up. Still, the Gentle Leader stopshim. I don't use it all the time because he seems to think I am"killing" him with the train over his snout, but it does work.Just remember, you can't pull it or you will hurt your dog. Letthe dog pull and the Leader will automatically redirect the headtoward you. He will stop pulling right then and there.Well worth the purchase! | positive |
0 | "Global Warming Edition" ??? | What kind of nonsense is this? This is an obvious attempt to cash in on the global warming bandwagon. There is nothing in this movie that has anything to to with "global warming", especially in something made in 1961. | negative |
1 | Aztec | One of the things I like about Mr. Jennings work is that he manages to describe the cultures he writes about in the contex of that culture. It's rare to be thrown so completely into a world that no longer exists and discover only when you've put the book down that you had left your own world and all its judgmental comparisons behind for a few hours. | positive |
0 | Rhino bombed out on this one. | I never thought I'd ever give anything by Bread a low rating. And a 2 is being too easy on this collection. Rhino has a very good rep of giving us collections that has the original recordings and artists. These are the originals. But, I'm sad to say I agree Retrospective is the best collection. So Rhino Recordings if you happen to read our reviews I've got a suggestion. Talk David Gates into releasing the album "Lost Without Your Love" on a CD. Or a box set with all of Bread's albums. And/or maybe David's solo albums in another set. | negative |
1 | The kind of reporting you want to see | I've been reading hundreds of articles about the war in Iraq. The Long Road stands out in that crowd. It's a story about B.D, the Doonesbury character who loses his leg in an explosion near Falluja. I'm not an expert on war and war casulties, but to me it seems that G.B Trudeau has managed to get the psychology right, B.Ds reactions as well as the family's. It's a very touching story, and it makes you understand that there will be a lot of people in U.S with a long road home, a long time after the war. | positive |
0 | Too much money for the piecemeal work. | I received the foldable mission cart and once it was put together, I found there was an inner curve to the bottom side making a set of the folding bottom tray into it's hook impossible. I had wanted the foldable mission cart for the express reason of being able to roll it. The contents would spill out of the bottom tray, so I received excellent service from the chat service, receiving a return slip by email. Pleasantly surprised by this quickness of delivery of the second unit again, this quick delivery was also the case with the first unit and most recommended, I repackaged the first, but first put together the new one. It was a different color, green and slightly oily and there was a large crack in the cover tray. Though the covers for the screws in back were slightly different size, I put it together piecemeal, proceeding to send the rest back. This is too much money for the work. | negative |
1 | Comprehensive | If you have ever read one of Clare Walker Leslie's books before, then it won't surprise you that this is a Journal that invites you to go out into nature daily, but gives you ways to make your journal special and your own personal work of art. She shows you the basics of how to draw birds, flowers, trees, etc. to make your time in the outdoors more fun. If you follow her ideas, you will find that you will get down your old journals for years to come and look at them. They will all bring back fond as well as bad memories. You will find yourself putting them all down. | positive |
0 | Worthless book, and I am a fool!!! | My compliments to the photographer, but the content of this book is mighty thin. I thought I had finally found a book that would go beyond the basic pasta techniques and that would tell how to make noodles and dumplings. Burn my soul! This book has the basic pasta recipe along with a few recipes for sauces and such. There is nothing in this book that you won't find in a comprehensive cookbook like Betty Crocker. Spaetzle isn't even mentioned! Save your money, friends. Or wait a year until they sell the remainders for 50 cents. | negative |
0 | entertaining but.......... | The movie is entertaining enough. Soundtrack is okay if you like that kind of music. The martial arts is very good, as can be expected of yet li. The story is ....... well, you all know Romeo and Juliet. Nothing else special to mention.You can spend 2 hour being entertained but don't expect a good plot. Just wait for the next fighting scene and you'll cope. | negative |
0 | Matrix? | After Christmas I purchased several DVDs in an effort to add variety to my walking routines. Of the DVDs I purchased, this is my least favorite. I found the matrix thing gimmicky, and ineffective. Perhaps I am just a klutz, but also found that many of the "steps" were impossible to do and added nothing to the workout. The background was beautiful, at least at first, and the people in the DVD were too. They seemed to have no problem with the steps, but that did not help me. There were other "gimmicks" with the background, such as putting it on a billboard, side of a train, etc. As you can tell, I got distracted by elements of the DVD which did not add to the effectiveness of the workout. I do not use this one and feel it was a waste of money. Nice location and hat. | negative |
0 | Dont like it. | This condom is small and less lubricate. It is is less sensitive. It is strong. More expensive than any other brand. | negative |

1 | A great tub. | My daughter is 9 months old and we are still occassionally using it. We fill the big tub around this tub so she has a barrier between her and the tub. | positive |
1 | I recommend this cd | If you havent heard this cd I suggest you buy it, one of the best cds I have heard. Diferent sound from what you hear on the radio which all kind of sounds the same now adays, this cd has music to dance to or just to relax and listen to. my favorite ones are well actully all of them but I really recomend1. Pupilas Lejanas3. Te Juro (I Swear)6. Perdoname7. Cumbia De Los Muertos8. Todo Es Posible | positive |
1 | Good | Fast shipping and the book arrived in good condition. I thought the book was a hardcover, but it was a paperback. I think that was my fault though. | positive |
0 | IS THIS BRITNEY OR A MUPPET SINGING ??? | If she is a singer I want to be a singer too. I know that I don't have any talent, but she does not have it neither. I completely sure that everyone sing better than her after listening this piece of garbage. I feel really offended with this cd, how her company allows britney to did this cd? The US lawS should prohibit this cd, it is so awful that it can be considered environmental contamination. | negative |
0 | Gag! | Pure unadulterated drivel. I couldn't even get to page 20, let alone page 48 with the political faux pas several readers have complained about. I am soooooooooo thankful I checked this out of the library. I would have been sad to have wasted one penny on this twaddle. | negative |
0 | no limit has reached there limit! | I give C-murder 1 star and that's only for the effort.(...)C-murder is nothing but a wack mc. He steals all tupac's style. He even tries to sound like him but sounds like an idiot. (...) There's not much to talk about on this album accept for the fact C-murder wishes he had tupac's talent. (...) | negative |
1 | :0) | was a good quick read for me i gave it a 4 but would aim for 3.75 stars. But don't let that discourage you from reading it great love sences, the plot didn't really like so much. | positive |
0 | Not so great. | I registered for this for my son because it was very neutral and not as ugly as most of the chairs out there. He was not a fan from the very beginning. The chair doesn't really bounce; there is nothing for his feet to do; the colors aren't exciting; the toys aren't fun.We bought the Fisher-Price Aquarium bouncer and he LOVES that chair! There were instant smiles and laughter and he can kick and grab for the dangling toys. He loves to watch the bubbles and the fishies, too.Now our "soothing and neutral" chair is in the closet. Maybe we'll use it in the summer outside when we need it zip out the flies... | negative |
0 | live center | Not good, I didn't want this one, it wasn't the one in the picture. Why is is the same order number as the fully tapered number. You should change it! | negative |
0 | Went bust in few uses | Was disappointed. Got this product as a Christmas gift - used just a few days literally and started smoking. As per Eureka, got to take to a dealer. Customer service was polite, but I still have the hassle of taking to a dealer, etc. Would NOT recommend. | negative |
1 | Best Potty Book and Chart | Very cute book and stickers. My daughter loves it. The stickers can be peeled off of the chart and used again, which helps when potty training lasts longer than expected ( : We bought several potty books and charts and this is my and my daughter's favorite. | positive |
0 | Psychic Babble | The author uses little science to support her claims and assertions but "psychic visions" from the likes of Edgar Cayce. Though the book is interesting and easy to read, it cannot be taken as a serious work. The author should try to seek scientific facts to back up these psychic claims. If you are looking for a good book that provides scientific evidence for the former existence of Atlantis, don't look here! | negative |
0 | This book is very slanted towards "Daddy leaving" | I bought this book for my stepchildren when they were about 2 years old. The book comes highly recommended from other users on Amazon, but if you are looking for a book that portrays both parents in an equal light, this is not the book for you. I found this book to be extremely slanted towards portraying an image in which "Daddy leaves." I haven't found it applicable to our situation at all. A better recommendation would be "Two Homes" by Claire Masurel. This book is a favorite of ours and you can expect a fair representation of both parents- emphasis is given to building an environment of love and belonging at two homes.Two Homes | negative |
0 | I never got it!:-( | Due to my Mail Man and the post office I never got it because there was never a tracking number available and my post office didn't have no information on it!!!!I really wanted to see it too because I like Trina! I really never have problems with Amazon. | negative |
0 | Buy with caution! | Many of the reviews comment on how this collection is both a DVD and Blu-ray collection, but when I ordered this from Amazon, it was a blu-ray only. If you're looking for just the blu-ray, obviously this is the way to go. If you want the DVD version, I'd recommend trying a different collection. | negative |
1 | Fuma and Kamui make their choices | X the TV show is a wonderful, well thought out anime that is both intelligent and action packed.This is the pivotal DVD in the X series. Kamui chooses what side he is going to fight for. This makes Fuma's choice for him. And once that happens, Fuma wastes no time. The actions he takes will forever alter Kamui's life. And certainly alter the future of the world.X, up to this point has been beautiful and surreal. The episodes on this DVD change the mood of the show. And sets a new darker tone for the remainder of the series. The events that occur in this one are harsh and cruel. But then again this show is about the end of the world. | positive |
0 | Can't Recommend This | I love Morning Song products, but not the Berry Punch suet because a) our birds don't seem to like it much; and b) it has no fruit in it. It's artificially flavored.See my reviews of other suets. Our birds like "Nutty Safari" best, followed by the variety with sunflower seeds, followed by the 'year round' suet.Pam T~mom and bird lover | negative |
1 | Accessible introduction to post-modernism | While many books on post-modernism obfuscate themselves in philosophical mumbo jumbo and self-referential exercises, this is a very straightforward introduction to the post-modern condition. It is also a great introduction to social construction, and the idea meaning (including the meaning of our selves) is a socially created truth rather than an absolute. Unlike a lot of books by academics, Gergen has crafeted a very readable book, that I not only learned from but enjoyed immensly. | positive |
1 | The Big Brawl (Battle Creek Brawl) | This movie was my first Jackie Chan. I had anticipated a serious KUNG-FU type movie and was pleasantly surprised by the humor is this spoof of the genre. From the breath-taking physical challenge at the bridge to the skating to the actual hand/foot to hand/foot, I enjoyed this. From the standpoint of Oscar willing dialog, no, this movie didn't rate but if you want a movie that will amuse you without taxing your brain, go for it! | positive |
1 | A true romance | I love it when a book grabs by attention in the first chapter. If you are looking for a true romantic novel to read, then this is the book you have waited for. | positive |
0 | A "B" Film that gets an "F" | "B" films can be enternaining enough to pass the time away, however, Hostile Hauntings makes you want the nightmare to end. All the films on this DVD are like a school film project gone wrong. Poor filming, poor acting and poor plots. No wonder the "artist" is not provided. I would be afraid to have my name attached to this too. This DVD is not worthing of the $5.00 bin at Walmart. Save your money. | negative |
