Lid does not fit properly!
Although the Brita system itself does work and the water, surprisingly tastes better than expected I am underwhelmed with the design of the product. The lid does not fit securely in place so it needs to be held while pouring. This is a large unit and it is awkward to hold while pouring.

Really great CD and loved the rocking and high feeling to it. It's really different from CD's like Dude Ranch and other albums blink have made but still a lovely album with catchy songs.

Doctor will never commit genocide
First Dalek is over. The prophecy of Caan cannot be more clear. Every Dalek was destroyed. They were gone. Why not just try to create another enemy for doctor?Second Doctor will never commit genocide. In this episode doctor was so eager to destroy the daleks. That is simply not what doctor will do.Anyway the story is just so inconsistent and poorly imagined. I miss Russell.

Poor Pretty Leslie
Leslie Uggams is another tragic example of multi-talented beautiful black female entertainers who face institutionalized racial discrimination in Hollywood. Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, and Eartha Kitt had to sing for their supper. Halle Berry hasn't had a decent role in years while her aging peers - Nicole Kidman, Meg Ryan, and Julianne Moore - continue to flourish. Is there any movie that Kidman HAS NOT been in? Surely her long run is the result of a backroom deal - the Supreme payoff for keeping her mouth shut and not outing you know who!And poor poor pathetic me for watching EVERY disgusting minute of this tragedy while waiting for Leslie to do something other than look stupid.

It Had Potential...
A trio of sisters and their friends take a trip to check out a piece of property they inherited from a grandfather they never met. The twist is that the grandfather and his family are inbred mutant rednecks...And so are the sisters!! Sounds interesting enough in theory. And actually it was very watchable for the first 30 minutes. However, the movie goes downhill after a very fake looking rape scene jars the viewer back to his senses and reminds us that this isn't a very good movie. From this point on the bad guys commit a number of incompetent blunders and the heroic male lead shows us his superhuman strength and tenacity a number of times.The movie takes a more comical turn which ruins any suspense that may have built up previously and leaves the viewer wishing for better days...

Smooth
Sometimes I don't feel like there was quite as much... I don't know. Body? Depth? to this season as the Tennant years that preceeded it, but it was enormously entertaining, and I like Matt Smith and the new companion so very much. It seems very smooth production-wise. Very much the distillation of the most successful elements of the last several seasons (or series as the case may be).

Spice rack organizer
A very good idea in concept, but fails in reality. The plastic clips hold the spice containers ok, but the adhesive strip on the back is very weak. It won't hold the rack and they fall to the counter. We have 12 of these and 10 failed. We had to replace the adhesive strips with 3M Command strips and now they work fine and stay where we want them.

Sad
The song titles reveal a cry for help - Are You Alright?, Unsuffer Me, Everything Has Changed, Rescue, etc.I began listening to Lucinda when I first moved to Austin, TX (mid 80's)with Happy Woman Blues & Ramblin'. She has really fallen into a glorification of her pain.

Poor quality colored plastic
The colored versions use a significantly lower quality plastic then the rest of the white brita products. Due to this, the pour flap wouldn't open, spilling water. Solved by just removing. The lid hasn't been improved in this model and comes off fairly easily compared to other models. I'm using this to replace my Brita oceania model which has poorly designed shape and top water reservoir (angled top). This model does have a great shape for fitting in the fridge.-G

Worst. Episode. Ever.
I'm a big fan of Doctor Who, both new and old, and this is easily the stupidest and worst written episode I've seen. I serves no other purpose but to introduce the candy colored daleks to sell video games.Especially since the daleks don't appear again for the rest of this season, this supremely sappy episode can easily be skipped. Go straight to River Song and the weeping angels. You can thank me later.

Frame Rate is so bad, it's unwatchable.
The Frame Rate is just so bad, I can't even describe it, almost as if it's just a little too slow. I've probably waited too long to return them and I'm scared to purchase replacements - out of 3 blu-ray sets of Doctor Who I've purchased (Tennant Goodbye specials, season 5 & 6, all have this frame rate issue.

The main reference on Objective-C.
The first three chapters are conceptual, and compare various approaches to object-oriented programming. Chapters 4 until 8 are highly technical and give detailed information on the Objective-C runtime and class libraries. I find the chapter on user interfaces a bit sloppy. Interesting, on the other hand, is the final chapter with projects for extensions.

Big mistake
I was trying to save a little money by buying a "refurbished" IPod Shuffle. Obviously, the problems that sent it back in the first place were not solved. The IPod loses both all its charge and all the tunes downloaded into it after it sits for more than 24 hours. If you remember this several hours before you want to use it, these problems can be overcome; a major irritant. I should send it back but that, somehow, doesn't seem worthwile.

Excellent, well done Tribe, an instant platinum hit.
The Tribe does it again. An excellent instant platinum hit just like the the essential, must have, Low End Theory. The beats are just superb and relaxing in almost all 14 songs. Even though the Low End Theory to many was the greatest album made by the tribe, I'm gonna have to say this one is better. This album is a must have in any household. All I got to say is that A Tribe Called Quest is the best rap group ever after this major hit. Best 3 songs on the album are: Award Tour, Electric Relaxation, and Oh My God.

Review on the Packaging, not the series.
I love this series, I watched it on Netflix and decided to buy the series because of how much I liked it.That being said lets talk about the packaging. The previous packaging for the series was good and the usual style that you see when you get a season of a show. But this one kind of sucked. Each disc is in it's own plastic tray which is fragile. They trays are put together like a book and it's hard to get a disc out because the center thingy doesn't release easily.I like the series but hope that next season the packaging is done better.

What Happened?
Blink 182 had all good rock CDs up until now. This Take Your Pants and Jacket is lame. Anyone who had been a loyal fan of Blink 182 will despise this CD for a lot of reasons:1. The band's song's all sound the same2. The lyrics are forgettable3. The shots at humor are pathetic (Like the CD title) This can't even be called a punk CD-it's more like a laughable farce.

Good introduction
Decided to learn new a sport at age 36. Bought this DVD on-line, spent money on a full set of snowboard gear at local sports store, and went snowboarding. I also paid 3 hours of 1 to 1 instructor. While this DVD can't beat a live personal instructor, it allows your skill to progress when not physically snowboarding. The video will help you to get off the lift chair the correct way. It will also show you how to ride either goofy or regular. This DVD gave me an edge over other first time snowboarders. It also helped me to progress from novice to intermediate in snowboarding. Bottom line: Watch this DVD, then get a personal instructor.

Ok now, i hear and read a lot of reviews that knock blink and other "punk" pop bands...i like this CD cause i like the music..what MTV does with it is what they do, soo what if it is popular? is it soo wrong for a punk band to be signed to a major label? people should be glad they are cause the music gets to the masses...i like all thier CDs and they have matured through all of them...you can be glad they arnt shoving thier image into your face like BSB and N*sync....they are just a bunch of kids playing music, and thats fine with me

I now have knee issues...
I purchased the LTT at a Target store. I was in the process of moving and when I finally got it out of the box and tried it out, I had misplaced the receipt. The first couple of days were great. I would use it for about a half hour to an hour a day. I normally walk but wanted something to work on more target groups. Well, after about a week, I noticed a catch in my knee. I stopped using it for a while and restarted a few weeks later. The same thing happened again and the machine began making a creaking noise. I have since discontinued using it but periodically my knee will catch now if I am doing any type of hiking over hilly terrain. I now wish I never bought the machine.

A "Must Have" CD
I think that the album is mixed a little too low in volume, but overall this cd is hot! It has a variety of styles....from contemporary gospel to traditional. The narrarations are excellent, the choir has powerful voices, and the musicians are annointed. "We Give You Praise" is my favorite because it is simple in words, but profound in musicianship. There are sweet songs throughout the entire cd, so it is worth getting.

bad customer service
Upon putting the panels together we realized we had been sent a duplicate piece and we were missing one of the panels. I contacted customer service for the company that makes the product and was told I could purchase an entire new set of panels for $10.00 and $4.95 s&h. As the mistake was clearly on the part of the company I was certainly not willing to pay another $15 to get the complete puzzle.

BE WARNED - THIS SUCKS
blink-182 is a poseur-punk band that strives for attention. Obvioiusly anybody who listens to this album has NO taste for music. All of the songs are about having sex when none of theband member's balls have come out of their sacs.The album mighthave nice sleeve art but the album itself is horrible. Try real punk bands like The Dead Kennidys or perhaps The Rammones. Kids,this music is for eight-year olds trying to act cool not teenagers with no music taste. Anybody who has bought this record has made a mistake. If you don't throw it away I'll bite you.

WORTHLESS
If I could have given this film "no" stars as a rating, I would have. Unfortunately the rating system requires at least one star. Listen. Don't waste your money on this crap. This is perhaps the most ineffective and boring film that ever dared to call itself "horror". The manifest "horror" in this film..., two mentally warped idiot twins born from incest..., looked like little more than hunched over stage hands in overalls with shaggy hair. They carried hand axes that were too small to chop wood let alone bones. Yet they seemed to make short work of cutting people up. And then there was the family-incest theme..., VERY poorly done..., sickening yes, but hardly horrific. The real horror was that I wasted my time watching this nonsense.- Mike Silverman

USELESS!!!
Bought this (not at Amazon) because I needed to replace a very old Brita pitcher that I had (and loved) for many years.I didn't research this purchase too heavily (because I'd never had an issue with Brita before) but I wish I had. This thing is just awful! The small 'flip up' lid falls off EVERY time we use it and the larger lid has to be held down when we pour. The filter can process about 1/2 a pitcher full of water but if we refill the filtration chamber once the first 1/2 pitcher is done, it won't filter at all, and if you try to pour off the filtered water to make room for the water in the filtration chamber, it all leaks out around the insert...mixing filtered and unfiltered water together.In short...USELESS!

Great product for children with skin allergies
My son had eczema many years ago as a baby. The dermatologist who I took him to recommended this soapless cleanser for his baths. I used it the entire time until he was 4 years old. It was wonderful as it did not dry up nor irritate his skin at all. Now that my son has a baby daughter of his own, unfortunately she has the same issue with eczema. I told him about the Oilatum that I used to use on his skin and he began using it. It is still just as wonderful a product NOW and it was then. I will buy again.

Well, I HAVE heard worse
It's nothing THAT great! Sure, the first time you listen to it its highly enegetic and outrageous and you love it, but this CD has no replay value whatsoever. Veni Vidi Vicious? "use once and destroy" is more suiting, but thats already taken by Superjoint Ritual. Anyway, this CD is decent, but not if you are looking for depth, lyrical prowess, instrumental skill, talent, or anything else. This is a FUN album, which you dont see much anymore. But Thats about it. Main Offender is actually a really good song, but nothing else really stands out. "Find yourself another Girl" somewhat stands out, because its different, but that doesn't mean its good! However, I do respect the fact that they are making a valiant attempt to revive punk rock in these awful times of self proclaimed punk, orpunk bands like BLink 182, Good Charlotte, and Simple plan, who actually all .... This CD is decent but ultimately not worth buying.

BREAKS!
I think that the water pitcher is not only confusing (my room mates and I had the top on the wrong way!) but it also needs to not break when we drop it. We are college kids who are clumsy, thirsty when drunk, low on counter space, and poor. So we should be able to balance the pitcher on our leg while jumping across the room and if it just so happens to fall, it shouldn't shatter. Thank you.

Waste of Money
I have one. It died after 3 months of use. My neighbor has one. It died in 6 months.The ink cartridges don't last. They aren't refillable, and they are twice the cost of competing products.They didn't bother to battery backup the clock, so you have to reset the fax timestamp every time it loses power.Besides the fact that you can't count on Xer-smucks to keep up with demand for their cartridges. For about a month mine was a paperweight because every store around was backordered.Buy an HP printer. A Cannon copier. Or a Brother Fax. I will never buy another Xerox product.

Well Worth It
The IPOD Shuffle is a gem. It's tiny. Slightly larger than the average wrist watch with a belt clip for convenience. I clip it to my tee shirt during workouts. Sound quality is outstanding, and i-tunes software is easy to understand and use. Store unlimited numbers of playlists in your PC, and use "autofill" to move them into/out of your Shuffle. A charging stand is included. It connects to a USB port on your PC. Ear buds also are included, however, I prefer headphones. The only drawback I see is that the Shuffle is so small and lightweight, it's easy to forget you're wearing it, possibly resulting in damage.

Pack it up, boys
This is a TERRIBLE album. I couldn't get through it without cringing. It is the most blatant case of a sell-out I've ever seen. The tracks are nauseatingly poppy, and no thought has been put into the lyrics. Contrary to The first albums, the melodies aren't catchy at all. Blink 182 is clearly pressured to cater to the MTV kiddos, who care more about publicity than they do music. Let's see if they can pick themselves up after this disaster of an album.

Not for my skin
I had such high hopes for this product. In fact, before I purchased it I told everyone I'd found this amazing peel on Amazon but I take that back.I won't advise anyone to stay away from the product as it obviously worked for many people. I'm african american with a medium complexion. I have combination skin with blocked pores and dark marks all over my face from acne. I used this product for 4 weeks, once every 5 days and the only outcome was incredibly dry/old looking skin even if I used a good moisturizer. All of the marks on my skin are now darker than they were prior to using the product and it did nothing to combat acne. I didn't leave the product on for more than 4 minutes yet the last and final time I did, the skin on my chin burned off leaving bruises.For me, it wasn't worth it.

Blink and Pop
Most of the album is typical Blink 182 with songs about getting with girls, and breaking up with girls. This is basically just pop-rock (punk if your offended) and nothing more.The album does have it's share of DUDS in "Reckless Abandon", which is annoying as [heck], and "Every Time I Look For You" which sounds like a filler. "Story Of A Lonely Guy" has a great chorus and music but the stupidest lyrics. If you want something that sounds all their other albums, and just want something to make you smile, go ahead and buy this.But if your looking for real rock, definetly avoid Blink 182.Hoped this review helped you. If not, I'll try better next time.

Great book for someone learning Spanish
This book is about the life of a young woman in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War. It is written in the language of a young woman, and, coupled with the fact that there is an English/ Spanish dictionary in the back with a section on idioms, makes it easy to read for someone learning Spanish. Beyond that, it is interesting, exciting, shocking, sad, and funny all rolled into a wonderful accounting of what life was like in this tragic era.

A Xenophobic Traveler's Story
I have enjoyed several of Bryson's books in the past so finally got around to this tour of Europe; I'm sorry I did. This is like one man's mid-life crisis dream of re-living an adolescent fantasy journey, with little real thought about the people in the places he visits. Sources for drink--often LOTS of drink--and the occasional museum are the primary focus of his entire journey, and the xenophobic comments that pass for humor here get very old very quickly.Probably the saddest part of the entire book was being reminded that less than 20 years ago, he could visit Sarajevo and watch families playing quietly in a park. For anyone like me who is just now considering reading this, don't. There are far better, more current travel books and far better Bryson books out there, so do yourself a favor and skip this one.

wut the this band is bad
ok this band is pop punk. it really wouldn't cut the cheese if the sex pistols,ramones,the clash, or misfits where still big. to start off this album ruined punk by trying to make complex songs with like 100 chord eep it simple like 4 or 5. 3 would be awesome. Second stop thinking about girls and deal with the government. I like green day better than these guys they have a variety of topics these guys just have girls. plus there another band who's has to mix "sk8ing" in to punk. The first punks didn't have skateboards. There lyrics are vulgar but they don't do it like anarchy in the uk did. The sex psitols got thrown out their own coutry all these guys ever did was get thrown out of a mall.

IsThis Your Company?
This novel about office politics in corporate America will likely have a familiar ring to it for anybody who works for a living. It relates what happens to employees when a new CEO is appointed to reorganize Crapper Companies, a manufacturing conglomerate. I had to keep reminding myself it is a work of fiction because Crapper sounds a lot like the company I work for. My husband read it and said it sounded like the company he works for! The author captures the drama and comedy of inside-corporate action. All of the characters, from officers at the top to the people trying to get there are totally believable. If you like business novels, this is a very good read.

Boring Beyond Belief
There is nothing "gripping" about this book. The beginning of the book, the tale of life with the King, is interesting. Once the family is arrested and incarcerated, it becomes boring beyond belief - and this is the part of the book that should be riveting! Instead, I found the narration totally self-centered and the "story" absolutely colorless. I quit reading about page 138 (just after the escape) because at that point I could have cared less what happened to this family. The travesty is that these events were real and I should feel outrage and compassion for this family. Instead, I'm annoyed I spent money on this horribly written/edited/translated book!

Um...
I have been a really big Blink fan until this cd. After I was finished hearing the whole ablum I was disappointed. This is definetly a change for Blink- whether people want to label it as bad or good. I don't like most of this cd. It's pop rock with a bit of punk popping up here and there (but not too frequently).If you really liked their previous cds like Chesire Cat and Dude Ranch, this cd isn't like them. It has the pop rock feeling of Enema of the State; however, this cd is more mature. This is one of those cds that I have to skip over every other song just to get to something that I wouldn't mind listening to.

I'm generally very happy with Amazon's service and shipping times, but this was flat out frustrating. I ordered the iPod on September 5 and when the ordered was confirmed, I noticed a far away shipping date of late October. Still, it was at a good price, and it wasn't a terrible rush. 2 days ago, I received an email saying I just wasn't going to be getting the iPod because "We are sorry to report that we will not be able to obtain (it)"This is obnoxious. I mean really? Why is it even still listed here if they are unable to obtain it. It needs to be marked as UNAVAILABLE. Total amazon fail.

My favorite Doctor yet.
My wife is the one in the house who watches all of the episodes of Doctor Who. I have sat through a couple of the episodes, but I really could not get into the series until season 5 came out. The writing of this season is superbly done, and very witty. Matt Smith plays the doctor who appears (at least to me) to have some sort of ADHD. I am waiting eagerly for the next episode, and have even started watching Doctor Who from earlier season, to include David and Chris, but this is by far my favorite season.

A Different Opinion
I'm a really big Lifehouse fan, but I don't see how this album deserves all the 5 star ratings. It's got a couple of good songs, but the rest are pretty boring. If you like slow, meandering songs then this album is quite nice. Don't listen to it while driving, you might fall asleep.

you can't get much worse than this
Green Day=good band, brought something new to the mainstream in '94. I love punk rock. Blink192 is not punk. It's n'sync with guitars. Every song sounds the same. Each single is copy of the last, with the exception of the generic Stay Together For the Kids. Don't waste your money if you like intelligent music, songs with meaning, and something different. my rating is 1 star because you can't go any lower on the scale.

Classic Swiss design, from a Swiss company, made in China.
Looks great, works great, a little heavy. 170 g for the flask alone, without cap, cup, or strap. Compare that to 130 g for a 1L SIGG aluminum bottle. However, like all the SIGG stainless products, it is made in China. Don't be fooled by the "SWISS MADE" imprint near the threads of the cap. The cap is, but the rest isn't. It's kind of disappointing that SIGG has stooped to hiding the details about their products, which is why I'm knocking off one star.

The lid is AWFUL
The lid sits on time--literally. There is nothing holding it in place. It's a big pitcher. You need to hold onto the large pitcher AND hold the lid in place or it will fall off when the water is not completely full. The slightest jarring knocks the lid off.This is day 2 and, already, we have had a major spill. We don't have kids in the house. I cannot even imagine having this thing around kids.

It's an excellent C.D. After downloading a portion of Surgery in the Sky as my ringtune, I decided to go in search of the whole song. I couldn't find it anywhere except as part of the whole C.D. on Amazon. I mean HMV didn't even have it, better yet - recognize the group name. Others give me dirty looks when I play the C.D. in public, but they wouldn't understand. They listen to popular radio programs 24/7. They don't know any better. Anyway, Birds and Fishes, Surgery in the Sky, and 72 Degrees are by far my favourite songs.

Best of Blink-182 Yet!
I don't know how they did it, but they did... Blink-182 has gotten better and better over the years at making their albums perfect as possible. Every song that is on this CD is nothing less than MIND-BLOWING! If you have been a fan of Blink-182 and don't have this CD, you're missing out on so much! If you have never heard of Blink-182 and interested in wanting to find new punk rock artists, this is the one I prefer to listen to FIRST out of ALL the others! You won't regret it!

Before there was G@y Charlotte there was Blink 182
Thats right! This is the album that started all of the crap-a$$ poseur punk that rules MTV, VH1 and the radio now. I hate Mark and Tom, they are probably two of the most talentless musicians you can find, they both cant sing for s***, Tom cant make quality riffs and Mark cant even follow with some good basslines. The only talent in the whole band is Travis Barker, he's the reason why I'm not going to give this one star. But not even Travis can redeem this band for being so terrible so until a revolution in the music world takes place (like Nirvana and Van Halen) then we're going to have to put up with talentless bands like G@y Charlotte, S*!tty Plan, Avril Lavigne, New Found G@*ness, very little talent bands like Blink 182, poseur rap like Eminem, bubble gum pop divas who think they're Madonna and very crappy non-poseur rap. I hope something happens very, very soon.

How can anyone call this "rock"????
Warning to consumers grazing along looking for "Rock". I see review after review labeling this release as rock. I'm not saying this is a bad effort by Lifehouse because clearly I would be wrong since there are over 600 reviews with a 5 star rating. The production is really good. But personally, using my definition of rock ... you can't go to sleep listening to rock ... rock wakes you up ... this effort in its entirety is not rock ... not even close.Really I think the amazon review nailed it best with "melodies that mark Lifehouse's radio-friendly sound are not unlike those of matchbox twenty or Live in their softer moments" and "think Crowded House at their lilting best".

San Diego, the greatest place on earth.
Blink 182 is a good band. This record is a nice outing with some memerable songs on it. Not as good as other albums out there right now, but still a nice and fun, have a good time sorta album. I am sick of people saying how much Blink have sold out. They have not in the least bit. When ever a band hits it big, everyone accuses them of selling out. Going big just means that they have made even better music, thats why they have sold so many albums, and that goes for every band that is accused of selling out. This cd is a good one, I recommend it to all who like a fun little album.

My Experience
For the first three months, I was extremely happy with my purchase. The quality of screen display was excellent. Unfortunately, after 3 months of use, the monitor started randomly turning off and on during use. This could happen anytime and continue up to eight times in a row. I sent the monitor for warranty repair and was told that the main board needs to be replaced with a turnaround time of one week. It has been over three weeks and now I am informed that Sony had sent the wrong parts and I will have to wait. It is very annoying to pay a Sony price premium and experience the problems that I have encountered. Sony has lost the trust and custom of my family. You may wish to read the feedback of R.V.Hatcher who has experienced similar Sony monitor quality and service problems. His feedback can be found under the reviews for Sony SDMHS75/B 17" LCD Monitor (Black).

Customer Service Review -- don't know about the product yet!
I'd love to tell you about this product I ordered on Sept 9 and today is Oct 4. I've tried contacting this customer 4 times without response and I still don't have my product. Amazing how they immediately charged my credit card and can't even call me back with my concerns. Soooooooo, if you have money to toss around and time to be patient and even ignored then I'd suggest going with this company since they're so customer oriented. Oh and Amazon, what a friggen joke, I was not only continuously on hold to place a complaint but the person did not speak American English well enough for me to understand anything they said. Everytime I asked if I could speak to someone else they'd continue talking as if reading off a script ... so really, I don't even know if I've been issued a credit back to my credit card. I'll keep you all posted.

I use this book many times each week. It is easily the best book in my busy household. The recipes are easy to follow and they give me a sense of accomplishment when I produce something so delicious. I am going to get all her other books. Home made meals really are the best!

Didn't work for me
Nice concept. Easy to install. But my spices keep popping off the clips every time you close the door. Sometimes they even pop off after the door is closed. Most of my jars are glass, so I don't know if the added weight makes a difference (vs plastic jars)? All I know is these didn't work for me. I will get removing them (hope that goes well!) and getting something else.

Surprisingly Bad
This is the 3rd Brita water pitcher I've ever owned. The first two were great (needed a new one because they were left with roommates). This pitcher is unlike them though.Cons-Top cover doesn't fit at all, falling off far too easily-Water leaks out the back handle-Filter comes loose while pouring-Bad filter fit means black carbon particles get in to drinking water belowWe'll buy another Brita, because we have 4 unused filters and are used to the taste, but hopefully the next model we try will work better.

Not Worth Buying
Product does not hold its shape. Once plastic "arms" are stretched to fit one spice bottle, another of a different size (if at all smaller) will not stay secured - it falls out. However, the tape to hold the plastic "arms" is very strong - it was hard to remove before I threw the product away and chalked it up to "buyer beware" experience!!

Near perfect...
Isn't refreshing to hear music not associated with pop. That's what I consider this album. Refreshing. It reminds you of years gone by. That is because it sounds like others, as has been pointed out. Is that bad? No. It's like listening to the "Velvet Goldmine" soundtrack thinking new classic Bowie music had been created. It just makes you happy.

Good
I got it on time. I am a completist and an avid 11th Doctor fan. It came as advertised and I would highly recommend getting it just for the complete change of how the 11th Doctor operates within Steven Moffat's governing ideas.

Trippy with an old-school twist
Enjoyed this series for its character development, it's wacky storylines (and characters, for that matter) and Matt Smith's superb acting. Looking forward to checking out season six on Prime!

A brilliant album
This has to be one of the best rock albums ever. The lyrics are fun and relevant to teenagers, but at the same time no one takes them to be offensive or serious. The guitars are amazing and the speed and melody of them are just great. The drumming is also fantastic, really loud and hard. I would recommend this album to teenagers wanting a fun time, and seriously ADDICTIVE music! Ever since I cuoght this album, the words have stuck in my head and it has not been out of my CD player. An impressive collection, some of my favourites are:Online songs, Anthem Part 2, Shut up- (because it lets me sing along and release my anger!), and story of a lonely guy. Although the oldest member of Blink182 is 29 years old, they are still an awesome teen band.

It's certainly not cutting edge ...
I ordered it because of a comment in the New York Times about one fight scene filmed along a narrow path. It turns out, that was the ONLY thing of interest in the film!

Accessible, informative, and well written
Along with John F. Kasson's *Rudeness and Civility: Manners in Nineteenth-Century Urban America*, I found this book accessible, informative, sophisticated, and well written. These are the qualities that I look for in reading a book. While we tend to focus on the more obvious, the two books tell us a lot about the not-so-obvious in modern living. Reading etiquette and conduct books after having read these books proved a lot of fun and thoroughly enlightening.

Fifty years of experience.
My wife and I have been using lubricants for close to fifty years. Since finding "WET" years ago it has been our only choice by far. Nothing even comes close to its quality.

Love that Jessica Harper!
We have been listening to Jessica Harper albums from the library for years now, and finally have gotten our own. She sings about things that both children and the people who love them understand, and sounds so catchy, upbeat, and danceable!

Not like the hardcover I grew up with
I grew up reading the hard cover version in the 80's, and this paperback version is a far cry from that gorgeous book.
