| Where Is Trilogy? | Most of what is here is ok but where is Trilogy? Can't beleive they would leave that off (it could be their best song) and include some of the really BAD tracks here like All I Want Is You, Brain Salad Surgery (could be THE absolute WORST song ever recorded and is totally unlistenable!!!!), Affairs Of The Heart, Pirates, Great Gates Of Kiev are all garbage! At least they have the full-length "Fanfare For The Common Man" which is criminally missing from the Essential ELP. |

| Another great Tom Robbins masterpiece | If you read this once, you'll want to read it a dozen times. Like all of Robbins early novels (Still Life with Woodpecker, Even Cowgirls Get the Blues, Another Roadside Attraction) Jitterbug Perfume is fun to read. It's lively, light, great characters. Some of his later stuff (Fierce Invalids from Hot Climates, Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas) fails to recapture the early magic. Or maybe I'm just getting to old for this. But I can still read Jitterbug Perfume today and enjoy it as much as the first time 20 years ago. |

| A complete waste of time and money | This is probably a good example of how dangerous online shopping may sometimes be. I would never would have bought this book, had I had the chance to glimpse at it in a real store. So far this is my worst online purchase. Here are the reasons. It's not really a book - it's a collection of dim-witted aphorisms related to men's fashion. There is an average of 4 such phrases per page ("The Hawaiian shirt: no" or "Expensive shampoo smells really good") x 150 pages = 600 common sense proverbs in all. Basically this book is good for men who have absolutely no clue about fashion (Ricki Lake makeover candidates), as the first stepping stone. If you already know that socks are a must and that sneakers don't go with suits, you will be as disappointed as I am now. |

| How hard can it be? | I have 2 brita water filters in my home. Both of them leak after i fill them and then pour water. They have hollow handles which for some reason get water in them, then when pour the water it leaks out of the hollow handle. My floors are wood and tile, they become damaged or they become slippery when wet. How hard can it be to design a water filter bottle that doesn't leak? Too hard for Brita apparently. Still they are major provider of these type products. I hope they improve or someone else enters the space and designs something better. |

| Light Fluff with Almost no Redeeming Qualities | I was disappointed with this book from Janette Oke. Her lack-luster writing style makes me wonder if perhaps she just scribbled this off on the weekend to meet a deadline, which is really too bad because the plot idea is excellent, but it could have been done oh, so much better! Her characters were flat, and the way she jumped over long periods of time, I thought perhaps my book was missing pages. It wasn't. If anyone is looking for a Christian romance that has depth and endearing, Christian characters, I strongly recommend Lori Wick- especially her book 'The Princess'. Maybe next time, Ms. Oke. |

| The idea sounded very interesting, but | the book went on and on. All the descriptions of the town, weather, ocean, people, etc were too boring and I started to skip paragraphs and pages to get to some kind of action. I couldn't see, what was so special about Laura to have 2 such good men fell in love with her. Seemed to me, she didn't want to make any decision and was waiting for either one of the them to give her an ultimatum. That way, she sort of didn't have to decide for herself. And, actually, Dan was the one who started the legal proceedings, not Laura. Last couple of chapters were easier to read, since there was something going on there.That is the first book I am reading by this author, and I am not sure if I am going to read any of her books again. |

| Another great story in the series! | Help! I'm hooked! People of the Sea was another one I hated to put down. I love how each book in the series teaches me something new. The story line was excellent and kept me reading into the "wee" hours. On to the next one............ |

| Lifehouse shines its light for new artists to see | Straight out of the box, Lifehouse is a young, unpolished, and yet superbly talented group. With the hit single, "Hanging by the Moment" listeners are grabbed, and hopefully tempted into the purchase of the entire album. Rest assured this purchase is not in vain, as the slower tracks such as "Somebody Else's Song" and "Simon" are just as much a part of this bands sound as their radio-rocker single. Lead singer Jason Wade tends to sound a bit "Creedish" at times, but the deepened tone of his voice shows edge as well as a soothing tone. I highly reccomend this album, and I cant even imagine where this band could go as they learn even more about themselves and their music! |

| A great little device | This is a great little device. Unlike the other types of ipods, it clips directly to clothes so your hands are free. It only plays songs at random, so you cannot select specific songs. However, this is perfect for a younger child or during exercise. It's also not so expensive, so you don't feel like you have to protect it as much. |

| Terrifying and Touching | Nicholas Gage (Nicola Gatzoyiannis)wrote a book that was both terrifying and touching. It was terrifying because it exposed the brutality of Communism and touching because it told of a woman's undying love for her children, especially the boy who would one day pay tribute to her. The descriptions of torture Eleni and fellow villagers endured at the hands of the ELAS/DAG were some of the most horrifying things I've ever read. The scene where Eleni tells her son, Nicola, to be brave and gives him a gift of a cross is one of the most touching scenes of family love I've ever read about. This story is a must-read for everyone. It is both instructive about the moral degradation caused by Communism and about the courage of a family. Also read Nicholas Gage's followup, "A Place for Us: Eleni's Children in America," which chronicles events leading up to Gage's life today. Excellent writer! |

| Great Price but a Little Thin | The price of these are really good but they are a bit thinner than other brands I have used. My dog is 4 pounds and it works fine for him but I would imagine that if you have a larger dog that it might leak. I would recommend them if you have a really small dog like I do. |

| Horrible user design | Does it's job in cleaning the water. Instantly tastes better.Does take a few minutes for the thing to fill. You fill the reservoir in the top and wait for it to drain to the bottom, come back a few minutes later and repeat until filled.It has a filter use counter in the top that measures the number of pours and then tells you to replace the filter. The filters are expensive - bad for the consumer and good for the company. I would guess the counter runs a little on the short use side.The design is horrible though when pouring. The lid doesn't anchor to the top - it simply lays on it. Tilt to pour and "BAM" the lid falls off onto your glass of water. I have cleaned up more filtered water than I have drank with this.I'm not sure what that does to the filter counter - probably throws it off.Really BRITA - how did this make it through user testing?I would tell you to look at some of the other models. |

| Better Than I Thought | This CD was so much better then I thought it would be!

| Incorrect item description | The track listing for this item shows 2 discs, with more than 15 tracks on each disc. However, the item I just received is only 1 disc consisting of 17 tracks. I'm working w/ Amazon to try and resolve it, but if you're looking to purchase this cd, be aware that it is not the same item described. |

| As much fluff as a bag of cotton balls | If you're looking for a quality read, don't pick up Oke. On the positive side, there are no curse words or lurid sex scenes. If this is your only standard for a good read, you're in luck. The characters are cardboard cutouts, the dialogue is stilted, and the plot unrealistic. The moral is not hinted at subtly, but thrown into the reader's face. |

| Warning - Stay away | I purchased this battery and upon receipt, noticed that the battery was already over a year old (2006 production date.) After the first charge, the phone lasted 3 days. Now after 4 weeks the battery barely lasts for one day with 15 minutes of talk time. Don't waste your money! |

| Blah, blah, blah ... yada, yada, yada | I was bored. It's not that this band lacks talent, it just seems to lack innovation. The first single was grossly overplayed which didn't help a song I was already bored with. This whole CD just sounds too much like everything else on the radio that's in the same genre. Again, this isn't a "bad" CD, it just lacks pizazz. |

| Top Doesn't Fit! | Not even close...what kind of quality control does this company have? This was supposed to be a cheerful splurge -- instead it's an aggravating disaster. Impossible to fit the top on, impossible to pour it with the top on....Too bad I can't give it "No Stars" |

| Phenominal Debut Album | Have been following these guys ever since they got signed to Pete Wentz's label. Its a very refreshing cd. If you like Fall out Boy, and Panic at the Disco, you will most likely enjoy this album. It's dynamic, dancy, upbeat and all around fun. The only problem I have with this band is the fact that im going to have to see them all over MTV in a matter of months..... |

| People actually like this album??? | Strange, I thought it was really bad. Actually DM hasn't put out an audibly palatible release since Violator. It's too bad I used to really love them and could always rely on them. Well at least their back catalogue is still available. Too bad we can't go back and delete this one especially. Ugh! |

| It ended thankfully | To say the least I was pleased I did not pay for this book. It had inconstancy such as she worried that Plil was so much older when she was willing to marry a old perverted preacher! Another thing I disliked was all he needed to do to be save was say the "sinner prayer." Tell me where in the Bible it tells you you will be saved by a "sinners prayer"? The writting was not that impressive. The character's were forced into their situations. I thought he liked her to fast and was stupid acting. Like I said glad it was a free read. It wasn't even funny. The girl acted like a helpless ten year old. |

| Not an Ipod 1 gb but a knockoff mp3 player | I wanted an Ipod 1 gb shuffle but got a knockoff that was an mp3 player. This is why when I plugged it inot my computer the itunes did not recognize this mp3 player. With some reasearch I saw many knoockoffs online that were made to look like shuffles but had the workings of an mp3 player. I reformatted the mp3 which rendered it usless abecause I didn't know it was other than an aplle product. So they gave me full refund but I was dissappointed just the same. Now I am a little apprenhensive to order used items. |

| Great Stand | We lost the stand for our 43" Pioneer Pro HD Plasma, so we decided to give this a try. Not only did it arrive in just 1 day, it was perfect for our tv. The assembly was very easy and the instructions were very clear. All parts were clearly marked. The tv is over 80lbs and this stand supports it perfectly and is very stable. We also left the wall mount plate on the back of the tv and it attached to this stand perfectly, shortening the assembly steps. The only complaint is that it is 38lbs, which really adds to the overall weight of a plasma tv (but probably necessary to support it properly!). Would highly recommend this as a replacement stand, or for a large flat screen that did not come with one. Very satisfied with this product and the seller. |

| a memoir of an angel | This book was an exceptional easy read from start to finish; mostly because you can't put it down. The real struggle is having enough tissue handy to dry your eyes. The author puts his heart on his sleeve by opening his floodgates to his grief over the loss of his son, and the amazing discovery of his sons' everlasting presence. This book relates to anyone who has rode the emotional rollar coaster of infertility, loss of a child, and the surprising joy of adoption. This is a truly touching book that has opened not only my eyes, but my heart. A wonderfully written personal journey of love. |

| iPod shuffle x 2 | It would appear most have success with this product. Unfortunately, I didn't. Simply put, I ordered two of them for my family and neither one works. iTunes shows both of them as having corrupted hardware. I am returning both of them to Amazon. I will probably purchase directly from an Apple store or buy an mp3. |

| Stupid Main Chracter | This movie is horible. Why? becuase of the stupid main charactor. The guy is a horrible fighter that doesn't know how to use the sword properly. The director should concern high level of movie watchers. The director might cheat some viewers, but not some sword experts like myself. In my point of view as a sword expert, the main chracter is horrible. He ruined the whole movie. I think a reviewer well pointed out how the main character could not fit properly in this samurai movie. Horrible main character. |

The story starts off with george and lennie(retarded) on the run because lennie got in some trouble in weed and there were men after him. Them they went to another ranch and found work, food and shelter and became freinds with other people.The story has a suprise ending that is shocking i liked this book and recomend it to other folks. THis book is alot better than his other bookies. |

| Ready to organize more than spices! | I love these! Will be buying more and using for crafts also. There is one small problem though, the adhesive is seperating from the organizing strip but staying attached to the wall. Goin to try super glue, want them to stay around for a long time! I like that they fit more than one size and have even figured the glass spices can be used with them, they just have to be turned upside down but they do fit and hold! |

| Outstanding! | Aside from the Bible, this has got to be the BEST book I have read. I highly recommend it.

Changed my life. I've re-read it four times. Enough said. |

| You know the song, maybe not the band....yet | Ok, you must know the song, "hanging by a moment," and if you don't, you must be living under a rock. you may be sick of the song, as i must admit i am since it's way over-played, but the cd is spectacular. lifehouse hasn't really hit it big with any other singles, but their other songs are just as good, if not better, than hanging by a moment. |

| Ipod fan here | My wife and I use Ipod shuffle still to this day. They are good for the gym and great for running. This is good for people who don't need a screen to know the song and can just listen to full albums or a playlist. Monster Cable has some good headphones these fit in and it makes it great for running. We have 4 (pink, orange and 2 silver) and carry then running. For longer hikes and bikes rides when the wires are not big deal bring along the full size ipods. |

| pleased with my purchase | Once I ordered the iPod - it took only a few days to receive it. I was very pleased when I got the chance to plug it in to my computer. The person I got the iPod from - They left some music on the iPod, I guess they where giving me a chance to listen to their type of music? I was very pleased with the condition the iPod was in. It was very clean and it looked like almost new. Thank you for your immediate response & mailing this product as fast as they did. I am very pleased with my purchase. Thank you,Steve K. |

| British bias | I didn't know the details of Richard Bennett's background but it didn't take long for me to know this book is definitely biased toward the British. Bennett appears to think the Irish would have been perfectly happy to remain under British rule had those in charge in Dublin not bungled their 'rule' a bit and had a few ruffians not insisted on pushing for Independence. And wasn't it nasty for those Irish heros to wage their war when the Brits were otherwise occupied elsewhere?! |

| Inspirational | WOW! This is a moving and inspirational story of a family determined to survive. Told simply and concisely. While the Oufkirs' experience was horrific and unthinkable the book left me with a surprising feeling of warmth and inspiration about their survival and courage the simple closeness and support that got them through years of torture and imprisonment. |

| Chelsea Quinn Yarbro | I have read just about all of of Ms.Yarbro's books and especially love the St. Germaine character. She peaks your interest in his advertures and love life. The book was slow in starting but immediately became a cannot stop reading one. I have been reading Ms.Yarbro's books for years and had lost a contact in purchasing them.

| Lid Falls off | I bought this because Brita has such a good reputation, and it was an extremely attractive product. However, the lid is very poorly designed, and frequently falls off during use. Everyone in my family has had problems with this. I never had an earlier version of the Brita, but I wish there was an alternative, because the lid issue is a real nuisance. |

| Beautiful Illustrations For This Classic Folktale! | This is a great book! One of the BEST illustrations I have seen in a children's book in a long time. Better suited for older preschool aged kids/ younger elementary school kids since it is a little scary. A classic folktale that every child should be familiar with. Recommend this edition for any child's library. |

| Horrible Product, not even Airsoft Quality | After reading the reviews here for this product, some even describing how good this product is for various field applications, I figured it would be ok for the Range and utility. Not even close.The zipper tore the second time I put it on, while I was trying to adjust everything. None of the Velcro "MOLLE" knock off acc. would stay on either. The "quick draw vest" support anchors make it difficult to use effectively. Also the holster will not support any attachments on a handgun.Returned it, bought a better brand. Amazon was awesome per usual during the return process.After my experience with this UTG product I will never try UTG gear again. There is a reason its cheaper. Buy Maxpedition. |

| "For what it does, it doesn't get any better than this!" | PS--I would still like to republish this wonderful book. I continually use it and recommend it to others! If any family members from the Chester Wilkins estate has changed their mind regarding republishing this book, I would love to obtain the rights to do so.This work is long out of print. It was never widely available when it first appeared, but there is (still) nothing much better than this for what it does.Many books are available which align the four gospels by passages. This one, however, inserts every verse--even partial verses--precisely where they come in chronological order.While this may be more than most need to study the life of Christ, it does show the care and detail which Mr. Wilkins put into this work. To top it all off, there is a detailed index in the back.Having taught the life of Christ on many occasions, I can say without hesitation--it doesn't get any better than this. |

| This lady is a better recipie writter than mystery writter | Ms. Motts had an interesting idea for a detective novel however she failed to research the topics in her book at all. For instance blue roses have been around for decades if not centuries. Her descriptions of characters are haphazard at best and non-existent at worst. If she wishes to continue a career as a writer I strongly suggest that she at least read a few books in her genre and take a few novel-writing courses. This could have been a charming story if the plots were not so muddled; she had stuck to one main plot and no more than two sub plots. The preponderance of sub plots scanty clues, sloppy introduction and description of action of the characters make this book scream amateur, leaving the reader to wish the bleach had spilled upon the only copy of the manuscript before a publisher could read it. I would urge anyone about to purchase this novel to reconsider and look into a cat who book instead. |

| Dont buy this - Horrible Lid Design | Brita has been adamant about not redesigning this lid. Since this model has been out for a long time. Amazoners have been pretty vocal about this for some time but Britta has NOT listened yet. May be if we stop buying this, they will. Also, filters are really inexpensive at Amazon or Costco or Kmart during a sale. |

| Not good for humid or hot climates | This product is a wonderful concept, however, it does not work that well in hot and humid climates. I loved it when I put them up, but slowly but surely within a couple of weeks, the bottles (with the clips) attached started falling down. The sticky on the backside does not stick well. Even the little bottles of spices fell also. Love the concept, but needs improvement. |

| Had to get this shuffle before there where none left! | Does everything it is advertised to do. Could not bare to get a new one that had a computer voice talking so rushed to get this before they were all gone.I am glad I did. As far as all the bad reviews on the base I don't see the problems with it. I would imagine if you are careful it will last forever. If not there are loads or aftermarket adapters for next to nothing. I have been using it for the gym and it is fantastic. Sounds great with the supplied headphone but sounds fantastic with my better Shure headphones. The best part is that it converts larger songs down to 128 and that was a feature my large generation ipod doesn't have. I was actually able to fit almost 500 songs on it and trust me, that is more than enough music not to hear the same song for a long while. Anyway I enjoyed going through my library and selecting songs for it. If you can still get one grab it as they are all going fast! |

| Thorough description of the software development life cycle | I read this book as a text book for an Introduction to Software Engineering course. The book starts with the planning and requirements stages of software development and progresses through develop, test, and implementation. Terms, processes, and procedures are described. A thorough introduction for a new engineer, or an overview of current trends and buzzwords for seasoned professionals. |

| Tragic or Pathetic | I expected this book to give insights into the porn industry and its ride to ruin, but I didn't get that. All I came away with was a junkie who sold his body, used dope when people treated him like an object, then died. The author kept a neutral attitude toward the pornographers that was journalistic, to be sure. I don't think I would have been so objective. |

| Interesting premise, but falls a bit short | The concept of a husband long suspected lost at sea returning to find his wife married to his best friend is certainly an interesting concept, but ultimately, I feel, this story falls short of its potential. I did not feel sympathy for Laura and felt that her character was weak and did not inspire empathy or compassion. Rye, while I felt sorry and empathized with his situation, was rather annoyed by his lack of respect for the Laura-Dan situation. In the end, I liked Dan best of all and felt that he conducted himself the best given the situation, and actively felt sorry for the man. Not really how you want to end a novel, feeling sorry for a man other than the hero! |

| I should have read the Amazon reviews first ! | You DON'T want to read this book if: you are sensitive, you avoid horror movies, you don't like to get depressed, you find the idea of a couple breeding babies to be freaks for their carnival by loading the mom up with drugs to be the least bit repulsive. Since I am in that list myself, I wish someone had warned me and advised me not to read this book. Better yet, I should have gone online to Amazon and read the reviews, and I would have known !I do agree with some of the reviewers' comments about the brilliance and creativity of the author, and I appreciated the subtle working of the theme of our culture's emphasis on physical appearance. However, I wish I hadn't read it. |

| Works Well | These clips are definitely maximizing my shelf space. They hold the weight of the spices with no trouble and are easy to get spices out of. The only caveats are that it really works well with the McCormick style bottles that have a skinnier neck. Generic bottles that are wider are more difficult to get into the clips. And make sure you get them where you want them before you put them on. They don't come off once they are even lightly stuck. I think I will have to sell mine with the house, they will probably damage the cabinets when they are removed. |

| Easy to Use with an incredible zoom!!! | I LOVE this camera. FIrst of all, the Optical ZOOM on this camera is a wonderful 8X, where most camera''s now-a-days are maxed out at 4x! The pictures were excellent, both in and outdoors. The other review on this camera, the reviewer states there is a lag-time... untrue if you have a faster memory card! I experienced NO lag time, but was stapping pictures back to back, nearly no time in between.I would definately recommend this camera to anyone lookig for a well=built camera... From beginner to Professional, this camera is well worth every penny....and then some.Nice features, also. Easy to use AUTO mode takes the guesswork out of all conditions. |

| Poor Quality | The box for the DVD says new digital transfer and yet the video on screen was nearly unwatchable it was of such poor quality. Definitely not truth in advertising. I love this movie and couldn't wait to see it again after all these years, so this was a major disappointment. |

| MADE IN CHINA | Just a heads up for those that care. The product is made in China, and when I buy stuff that comes into contact with anything I put inside my body, I always buy things from first world countries because the laws are stricter there. I rarely hear about products being recalled from the USA, Canada, Britain, Germany, etc because of health risks (eg lead paint on children's toys). And I've recently found out that the screening procedure for products that are imported into my country are laughable. And that of the ones that do get checked and rejected, a large majority come from China. Finally, China is the only country that consistently tries to re-import products that have been rejected by govt officials. They just re-box them and and try again. |

| Worst player I've ever used | The shuffle is the perfect size to use while running and that's why I chose it. Unfortunately its a horrible player.It doesn't allow use of a standard mini-USB cable to upload songs. It requires the special base that you will need to tote from location to location to access the player and you have to use iTunes software rather than just simple drag-and-drop. Also finding a song can be a pain - you may have to click and listen, click and listen.... over a hundred times to find your song. I prefer my previous mp3 player that is also very small but allows you to drag and drop, uses a standard mini-USB, doesn't require a special base, doesn't require proprietary software, and has a small back-lit display to help find specific songs and has an FM radio and was cheaper.I can only recommend the shuffle if you like iTunes software and only need to access the player from one single computer where the base is located. |

| Wife No. 19 | This book is good, but I'm disapointed in the printing. With the cost what it was I really expected a book that I could at least make out the pictures. They are so dark and blurry that I can't see what they are. The print is also not clear in some places. |

| works great, could feel a bit more secure though... | These work great - got them to keep my toddler safe around our 2nd and 3rd story windows. The only thing is they could feel more secure - after reading some other reviews I'm thinking they fit a bit funny because we have newer vinyl windows. Seems that these would work best for you if your windows are a bit older or wooden. Just be sure to measure the track on your window - any bigger than 1/4inch and they wont work, just an FYI. |

| Getting Married in Buffalo Jump | I am very disappointed to see that this book is out of print. I borrowed it a couple of years ago from my local library and have been looking for my own copy ever since. It is a highly enjoyable romance, with realistic and likeable characters. The story involves a young woman returning to her family farm (ranch?) in the American West after becoming jaded with city life. It provides light and escapist reading, without being sugary or silly. |

| not very good | This video is not very informative. It in no way shows you how to fish out west. I live in Washington and it taught me nothing. |

| Awesome! | Just came in the mail and looks awesome!!! Great adjustablity with the size. Im a medium build and i adjusted it to fit me perfectly. but disadvantage is it wont go any smaller, so if your a small person it might not fit, at least not snug like it would be for a slightly larger person. Overall This vest is awesome, so many pockets and straps for anything you could ever want or need. Feels soft yet very sturdy when you have it on. Great material, not some crappy off brand build. Haven't tested it out for real, but im sure it will take the test/beating. we will see. recommend for anyone who wants a good quality vest. |

| Like a big sponge | This pillow is very comfortable, but the foam just absorbs the water and it's very difficult to get dry. It doesn't "ring" out and when it's set out to dry - it doesn't.I have used this pillow maybe five times so far and the foam already has large tears in it all over.This pillow is great in concept, but not for actual use. |

| Perfect !!!!!!!!! | I was A little worried about buying used. It could of been package better. I got it in a ziplock bag, at least a little bubble wrap or popcorn. It works like a champ and came within 3 days. I would buy again from this seller. |

| The Traveler's Gift | This is the best inspirational book I have ever read. It is easy and fun to read. I found it challenging, emotionally moving, thought provoking, and most definitely inspiring . I've read a ton of these kind of books and most of them I enjoyed, but I don't see any of them having the lasting impact on my life that this book will. I'd highly recommend this book to everyone. |

| " 15 minutes of lame" | This CD is a double take of repetitive lyrics and melody. The never mood of the music never breaks away from a group of melancholy love sick guys. Each song sounds exactly like the one before; and as far as variety, tragically the listener will find none. It is sad that the only "winner" on the entire work is the first song. But one can only listen to one song so many times. Overall this CD would be one of the worst and least original sounds to hit the industry. |

| Wast of Money | What a waste of money this was. The brace runs about 7 sizes to small no matter what size you order and it has very little support and is very hard to get on and off. |

| Too Slow to ship | I bought this needing to work on a project. It took almost 3 weeks to arrive after paying for expedited shipping. Needless to say I had to use something else and ended up just put it in the refrigerator for the next project because we couldnt wait anymore and were under deadline. Hopefully it will hold up and can be used next time |

| What' s all this fuss ?!? | [...]Now,let's talk about the double CD : this is a syrupy collection of all her OLD Canadian songs.There are only four unreleased tracks,but they are all in that ugly,kitschy,grand Las Vegas style that Celine has made her own...Well,you know what I'm talking about...Plus there is the ...unfamously super-hype vocal quartet Il Divo in one song 'I Believe In You'...horrendous!Backed by a huge media blitz from Sony, expect to see a lot of phony "great reviews". Probably the worst album of the millenium thus far.Avoid this like the plague, and buy Edith Piaf ! Trust me! |

Having lost her husband to thieves and violence, she is petrified having the stranger heal in their home, especially having two young children to worry about. But her father-in-law feels it is the Christian thing to do, and she reluctantly abides. As the days go by, she comes to see that Ian Sutherland, a Scotsman, is kind, helpful and even humorous. Still, she keeps her guard up. Not until she is faced with an unexpected incident nearing Christmas Eve, does she find her own healing and future happiness, and accepts God's Christmas gift for her and her family. |

| Excellent A+ !! | This is an absolutely wonderful story. I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE who is going through trying times of unemployment and underemployment. This should especially be given as a gift to every corporate employee and management level employee. That's where I was and I turned my life around within 12 months of Reading the Traveler's Gift. |

| A real friend to all writers! | This book combines craft and creativity and provides writers with the knowledge necessary to write at the highest artistic level. The exercises within can be reused time and again and push a writer to think outside the box.Not a paint-by-numbers approach, instead this author guides you into unlocking and strengthening your own, original voice.What are you waiting for? This is a great resource! |

| Why So Much??? | I own one purchased long ago, thought they would be cheap since they are oudated and hold much less then others out. Even more with less compression and sounding better. Am i missing something? This is 1 gig. Per gig thats 4 to 6 times the cost not trying. I'm off to get mine now, Never really inspected it for alien plants or omniatomic gas particles. That would be crazy expensive. |

| Variety is the Spice of Life | There are no two songs alike on this album, and for listening in the car that is essential. Everyone wants that CD they can listen to over and over and never get tired of. This is the one! This CD will take you through all the emotions and styles of music. You can listen to upbeat one minute, and the next something slow and romantic. The individual performances are different from the show, but every CD is produced that way. You want to be surprised at a live performance at how the artist is able to change a song and give it something extra when they are performing live. This CD allows you to get to know them a little better as recording artists. There are few CD's that are good from start to finish with such diversity and talent. You can't put a price on how much this CD is worth when you consider all of the talent and variety that is included on one CD. Pick it up today and be a part of music history! |

| too dang funny | The authors have a smart-aleck attitude that makes this so funny to read that you won't feel you're betraying your gender by reading about *fashion.* (No crocodile shoes in a color other than black or brown unless you're Barry White!) |

| The Strike | This movie suck . I would rate this movie minus 100 . You can see the person missed the kicking or hitting . It is like a home movie made with probably less than $100. to make .The sound effect is very bad . This movies is like in the 1970's but to me alot worst . Don't buy or rent it . It is just a waste of my time . |

| not impressed.... | While the characters in this tome are compelling, I found the prose to be lacking in the depth and maturity necessary to sustain a story with as many facets as this one has. The result is a story line that feels illogical, chaotic and predictable. |

| My wife's favorite watch ever! | I got this watch for my wife and she absolutely loves it! She likes the color, the way the band feels on her wrist, the fact that she can program it herself, and that it's not "too sporty". She likes it so much that she sleeps with it on and basically only takes it off when she takes a shower... Sometimes it seems like she likes that watch more than me! :) |

| Coby CX-CD241 Portable CD Player w/ radio | Very disappointed with the sound quality. (Am not a fussy sound quality person.) The footprint is also very large. The price was excellent but not worth it. I purchased it to listen to audio books. |
