| The "Greek" is Disappointing for me also | Although it's painful for me to agree also, but I found the Greek concert by Josh Groban disappointing also. His one true talent is his voice, his beautiful voice. Not the paino, Not the drums....couldn't care less. His beautiful voice is not quality all the time and it is painful to hear. I sincerely hope Groban understands this and pulls back on the concerts. Otherwise the live audiences will be the only ones he has left, and that doesn't sell millions of CD's. |

| One down, two to go. | Plot description on this book's Amazon page. Interesting and attention getting story. Some sexual buildup, but you have to wait to the very end for the big scene. Good solid character development and growth as two people who are strong and vulnerable learn to live with and love one another. A little mystery story thrown in, some plot tension from the bad guy, but more a love story. There are 3 loose ends, the other two women from the wagon train and the young woman who works (?) in the local whorehouse. There is a preview of one of the other stories at the end of the book. Hope it's as well done as this one. |

| Lame. . . | OK, sure, it's the new Doctor Who, but. . .they should have just retired it when David Tennant left. BORING. What happened??? I've TRIED to like it, but he's just too lame, too pale, overly animated, and the music is usually too loud to understand the dialogue! No, I won't be buying this series. I'm sure Matt Smith is a nice kid, but he's too young, too stiff, and just not experienced enough to do The Doctor.I'm sorry, kid, but. . .go back to university or something, OK? |

| Inspiring And Exciting | "When God Whispers Your Name" is an inspirational book based on Biblical stories presented in modern disguises. Max Lucado tells the modern story and then identifies the Biblical original. He does so in a way which holds the reader's interest and is never boring.My daughter is in a challenging, Biblically based Theology course I had gone into this book in the hope of enhancing my familiarity with Bible stories in order to help her. I obtained what I wanted, and more. Lucado tells Bible stories in ways that make them memorable. I approached this book with some trepidation. As a Catholic, I expected this Protestant minister to overwhelm us with quotes and citations. There is some of that, but they never interfere with the story.This book provides the reader with a road map to a more intense personal relationship with God. As I went through this book I found myself to be both inspired and excited. It can do the same for many Christians and others too. |

| Stinks | I never did like this phone much. I only bought it because it was cheap. Boy, was it cheap. Like R. Farish said, the second line has just stopped working altogether so it's useless as a 2-line phone. |

| You've seen this before | SPOILERS!!!Yet another one of those movies that ends with a "twist" where the main character has had a psychotic break with reality and is the killer all along. Honestly, it doesn't matter if the rest of the movie has been any good leading up to that because that ending just ruins the rest of the movie for me. At this point, it's probably tied with "It was all a dream!" for worst twist ending. I really wish screenwriters would stop falling back on this cliché. Take a cue from David Lynch; if weird stuff is happening, just leave it at that. I'm sure more people than just me will respect you for it. |

| Do not buy - light comes on in the middle of the night | We have had the same experience as the other reviewer that said the lights go on randomly, almost 100% of the time that we leave the wall switch on for a few hours. This can happen in the middle of the night, the middle of the day, or anytime. We have changed the code and don't believe it could be interference from a neighbor as the lights sometimes come on at 4 AM. We now have to use the fan with the light bulbs taken out. Very, very disappointing. DO NOT GET A REMOTE ONLY FAN!!!! |

I would say for anyone that has more then a little knowledge about food and terms then you'll be fine, other wise you might have to do a little homework, but even then this is a great book and do not let that scare you. great chef, great book, in my eyes it is a def must have for a chef of any degree!! |

| NSYNC-182 | If you don't have a drivers license and you like Dawson's Creek, you'll LOVE this CD. If you like creative punk music, I'd suggest going elsewhere. Pre-enema listeners will be in for a big let down.The record industry has taken hold of Mark, Tom, and Travis and made them sound like a bunch of whining babies. They threw in some explicit tunes that'll surely make the kids snicker with delight.I heard two songs that were decent, you may too. That is why I gave it a generous two stars. |

| Ozbo: do NOT buy from them | I cannot find the link to leave the seller feedback, but need to warn you about their service. Ozbo failed to ship this rat bait for a week, with ZERO contact or notification. Amazon had to cancel this order. The product is great, but do NOT buy from this merchant.About the product: I switch up rat poison so that the rats do not become used to seeing/smelling the same food. This product kills them quickly, within a few days. Be wary of where they die though. They are dehydrated by these products and often seek water sources (bathroom, kitchen and outside.) If they die while seeking water, and that happens to be inside your house/attic, you must remove their body... otherwise the smell can be horrible. Also, as they decompose you will have maggots and flies. I don't mean to offend those with a delicate stomach, but you should be forewarned :) |

| Heard the Problems with Groban's voice too | Yes, I heard the nasal twang too. I heard it during the PBS concert also. Too bad because Josh Groban is really a terrific singer, just not this time. Since I don't buy music where the artist sounds so bad, I didn't buy this one. From the looks of it I made a very sound decision. I work too hard for my money to buy something that doesn't make me thoroughly happy. |

| Forgets Who Nursings worse enemies are | I found the book entertaining, because like Heron, I used to work as a nurse and am now a full time writer. I also lived and worked in the Bay Area, and know the hospital that she writes about. However, Heron seems to find enough people to lash out at, but she seldom mentions that nurses are their own worst enemies. Nurses rarely if ever stand up for themselves, they are great at complaining among themselves but when it comes to doing something about a problem--well, nobody wants to rock the boat. Nurses are great at backstabbing, they don't stick together--in short, nurses are treated without disrespect by doctors and hospital administrators because they tolerate it without a peep. So it always bugs me when high and mighty nurses complain about everyone under the sun except themselves. As for Heron's writing, it is okay but a little melodramatic. |

| Sliding Window Lock | I felt compelled to write this review because I just bought this item for a fraction of the price at Home Depot. Actually, I bought a 'double,' which is to say it is a bar with two little screws, not one, for about $2.47. The item itself isn't great, I'm using it on patio sliders and what I've noticed is this item is only as good as the window frame it's installed in - in the case of my slider door that's not great, as the frame is very thin. If someone were to wrestle the door they could still probably rip it right off, even tightened down maximally. So it's more of a deterrent in that regard. For windows, though, or sturdier door/window frames, this is probably a very practical and economical solution. I have installed one along the top and one along the bottom of the door frame. Since I'm installing this to secure the slider with a 'dog patio door,' which prevents the slider from locking the usual way, I am definitely going to back it up with a security bar. |

| a look at punk rock | This review is for the Criterion Collection DVD edition of the film.Border Radio is a student film made by Allison Anders who later went on to direct episodes of "Sex and the City" and other TV shows.The film is about a group of musicians who track down a thief hiding in Mexico. The film is not very good in my opinion and probably would only appeal to fans of punk rock.The DVD has a lot of special features also.There are deleted scenes, two audio commentaries: one with the directors and one with the cast. A making of documentary, a music video of the group portrayed in the film, a theatrical trailer and radio spot, and biographies of the cast and crew |

| American Idol? | I don't think this is helpful. We used to live in a world that worked and I don't think it was because it was a commercial from start to fini. Now days, it seems to be a non-stop commercial and it definitely doesn't work. I think Simon, particularly, is a very bad joke. I remain truly amazed that living and breathing people, mostly young, are able to take this program seriously. |

| The Best Josh GROBAN concert yet!! | I was also present at the greek theater for this taping. I have been to 10 concerts also , and these by far were the best shows I have seen. So I know for a fact that this CD/DVD will be a best seller. Josh RAWKS out on the synthisizer, and the drums for Canto Alla Vita. He sings in Italian, Spanish and english... something for everyone, you will really enjoy it .I will be buying everyone I know this for Christmas.And who knows maybe you'll even see me in the 3rd row.. :)Jennifer |

| They've done it again... | Blink 182 has never reall dissapointed me, and Take Off Your Pants and Jacket fufilled my expectations and more. Theyve turned slightly from more of a pop/rock style in Enema and turned it into a more punk rock love song feeling. You could classify them anywhere and they still would rank high on any chart. People think Blink's songs are too similar. I guess you need to be a fan to realize how many diverse songs there really are on this album. My favorites after listening through are, First Date, Story Of A Lonley Guy (which i believe could be their next single) Roller Coaster, Reckless Abandon, and Shut Up. Rock Show is great too, but that one has already collected its fame. I believe this is Blinks best group of tracks ever, and i hope they just keep on putting out albums, because there are alot of people who will never get old of their great sound. GO AND BUY IT |

| An Incredible Waste | Josh Groban had such promise, with a tremendous voice with incredible range and a budding, strong presence. Then came "Live at the Greek." It saddens me greatly to see that Groban has sold out and is now paying for it with voice problems. They're notable from the very beginning of this concert DVD, where Groban sounds strained and nasal. There's no denying that Groban is a grown man in control of his career. He claims credit for this concert as a producer, writer, creator. Even if he didn't, he's getting paid mega wages for it. So I find it impossible to cut him any slack for such a poor performance. "Live at the Greek" is a waste of Groban's talent, and (I agree with other disappointed buyers), a complete waste of money! My advice? Get it at a used CD store. I'm sure the stores are full of them. |

| Who's giving these reviews?! | With all the glowing commendations for this product, I figured I couldn't go wrong by purchasing it. Wrong, wrong, wrong. I followed the directions; I didn't leave it on longer than 8 minutes, and I didn't use it more than once a week. I rinsed with cool water and used a noncomodogenic moisturizer afterwards. I didn't lay out in the sun. Now, 6 or 7 weeks later, my skin has never been in such terrible condition. Where I was only having mild breakouts before, my face now resembles that of my acne scarred adolescence. I cringe when I look in the mirror. Please, save yourself some trouble and DO NOT buy this product. |

| Brita Water Filter Pitcher | This pitcher looks nice and gives you 40+ gallons of clean drinkable water. Saves you at least $20. You need to replace the filter every 50 gallons. It has a digital meter that tells you when you need a new filter. This pitcher comes with a filter. The set up is easy, make sure you read the instructions which are labeled 1 2 3, that easy. Takes about a minute to fill up the pitcher. If you drink a lot of water you should get this pitcher because it will save you money. It's not too big and fits easily anywhere in your fridge. |

| Somewhat disappointed... | Heron's experiences are entertaining. She writes with humor and with honesty. However, her writing is somewhat choppy and even slow in places. I felt disappointed at the end of this book, somehow let down by her lack of 'depth' and insight into the suffering that she witnessed daily. Her clinical evaluations and uplifting sense of humor were a treat, but spiritual and psychological observations were not easily found in this work. |

| Pros & Cons | Pros: Nice size, fits nicely in my hand, easy to use.Cons: Sure requires frequent battery changes! After a couple of two-hour lectures, the special-order odd-size battery must be replaced. Also, the laser beam is weak and really exhausts the battery life, so I stopped using it. To be fair, this is my first such product to use and perhaps all of them soak up lots of battery power. |

| Horrible Editing Kills Lovely Book | This book should have been a great biography of Johnny Pesky, a Nice Guy who is finally finishing first. The author took the time to interview many people, and found much material that was not widely known about Pesky's personal life.However, he never bothered to edit the book. It is a nightmarish mish-mash of material. Many times the same story or fact is repeated in several consecutive chapters because there is no strong outline of what material is to be covered when. This jumping back and forth effect also causes confusion in understanding the sequence of events in his life. The poor editing turns this book into primary material to slog through to garner information, rather than a book one can read for enjoyment.This book is a fly-by-night job. There are other books on Pesky now; I recommend searching them out. |

| Unnecessary Movie | I never thought that John Carpenter's movie needed a remake. I did NOT know, at the time, that this one is actually supposed to be a prequel. Even so, I didn't think that was needed either. And I was right. The Kurt Russell version contained characters that I cared about, and graphics that - for that time - stood out. This movie...none of that. I didn't care about the characters at all. Maybe because, except for the helicopter pilot, I didn't know who any of the actors were. I really only got interested at the end, where it goes into the tie-in with the John Carpenter movie. I'd just skip this movie. I wish I had. |

| Button sticks... a big problem! | I purchased this product to be primarily used as a tool for advancing my classroom PowerPoint slideshows. At first, I loved my new freedom to move about the room while giving lectures. After a couple of weeks of gentle use, the advance button started to stick which causes the presentation to advance out of control to the end. I called customer service, and they kindly sent me a replacement. During the first day's use of my new pointer, the button stuck and a slideshow advanced out of control again.I will be looking for a different model. I suggest you do the same. |

| Sad... | It's sad that people can get a record deal for beinga good kareoke singer. Yeah, maybe my fish can get a record deal: They "sing" in tone, can breath, but refue to lip-synch(I know it sounds gay). This is just sad because bands that PLAY THEIR OWN INSTRUMENTS, WRITE THEIR OWN SONGS, and PERFORM THEIR OWN SONGS can pretty much get almost no attention. Let's take the band King's X: Doug Pinnick (vocals/bass) is an amazing metal singer who can sing in perfect pitch and writes good lyrics about God (King's X is a Christian band); Ty Tabor (guitar/vocals) has some of the bestguitar solos you probably don't know; and Jerry Gaskill (drums/vocals) has some pretty complicated rhythm patterns...yet only like a few dozen people (I know a lot more people than that like KX; I'm just exagerating) seem to like this band. It's sad. If you want good music, listen to the band I just menioned (King's X if you weren't paying attention).(If amazon doesn't post this I will SERIOUSLY get POed!) |

| Oh YES it rocks! | Everyone, including myself, seemed to be doubtful about Matt Smith as the new doctor, replacing the great David Tennant, who had brought a whole new generation and fan base to Doctor Who.

| I Won't Be Buying "Greek" | I watched Josh Groban's "Live at the Greek," and it was obvious that he was having multiple problems with this performance. Of course, the mail issue is with his voice. He was unable to hit the stronger notes and sounded nasal from the start. I also have "Josh Groban in Concert," which was "Live" and far more superior. This concert is just one big disappointment. |

| A sizzling performance from a top-rate cast | Whether it's the romp and stomp of 'Don't Git Sassy' or the way the reeds and muted brass tackle the daunting harmonies and rhythms of 'Little Pixie', the energy and class of this band always amazes. Not only were Thad Jones and Mel Lewis fine (and often underrated) musicians themselves, but they surrounded themselves with a band that brimmed with talent. This live recording (from the Vanguard in 1970) leaves the sound a bit dry and fuzzy, but doesn't take away from the enjoyment of listening to this disc. A great sample of this group at the top of their game. |

| Useless product | buying this is one grave mistake I did..I thought this book will contain all solutions from text book or atleast good explanation to the existing solutions. it has nothing. 10-15 solutions from each chapter is not worth buying at this price. Those 10-15 solutions we can do if we want. The reason for buying solution manual is to have a quick review of all the questions before going to exam.Then what for is this. I strongly recommend not to buy this book. |

| One of many good books on the subject | This is very good book, with a lot of references to consolidate the author's approach to where really was situated in Europe the homeland of the early Indo-europeans, who lived somewhere in Europe some 4000 years BC and spoke a so-called Proto-Indo-european family language, from where a lot of branch langues (English included) originated.In fact, the task is gigantic, given the few support each one of the approaches he takes (myths, language and archeological analysis) gains from the others. But this is the beauty of it all, seeing a respected scholar paving the path to the truth with sound work and plenty of patience.If you like to know a bit more about the origins of many languages like English, this a good book to buy. |

| Back cover description very misleading | This is a cardio workout, with hardly any toning. It talks about strength training on the back- you wont increase any muscle with this workout. She pulls a rubber band out several times and pulls on it a little. Dont buy this if you want toning. It is nothing like the Firm toning/cardio workouts. As far as the cardio goes, its good and I would say moderate.There is a hypnosis cd with it which I did not listen to, so I cant say anything about it.Bottom line, dont buy this is you are looking for toning. |

Way fun! |

| Sarah McLachlan - Afterglow | I loved it the instant I started playing it, what else can I say? The transcriptions are quite accurate and sound good on the piano. The vocal part requires that you listen to the CD to know what it is actually supposed to sound like on the verses, as Sarah changes them a bit. The piano part is a good mix of the original piano part plus some of the synth and guitar parts, a mix that is very pleasing to the ear. Enjoy! |

| Bad. Not good-bad. Just bad. | The ONLY good thing about The Room is the hysterically funny Rifftrax by Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy, and Bill Corbett, available from rifftrax.com.Otherwise, imagine this: You can't sleep. It's 3:30 AM. You turn on the TV and the guide tells you you've got 287 channels playing infomercials, two channels playing The Nanny, and one channel playing The Room, uncut and commercial-free. What do you do? You watch the infomercial for the colon cleaner because it has better production values, better acting, better writing, and a better plot than The Room.The Room is not camp-funny or cult-bad or so-bad-I-can't-stop-watching. It's just bad. Bad acting (from every actor). Bad characterizations (from every character). Bad casting (all of 'em, but the mugger actor should be playing a preschool teacher). Bad-but-not-funny-bad dialog. And pointless PG-rated love scenes every few minutes.It's not even so-bad-I-am-getting-angry bad. It's just pointlessly boringly bad. |

| Lava Buns Review | Fantastic product. Heat up for 6 minutes (3 minutes per side), slide into the protective sleeve (protects you from getting burned, among other things) and then have a nice warm seat when you get in your freezing car in the middle of winter. Cover with a pillow or towel, and it's till warm (enough) when you get back to the car 8 hours later. Can't say enough to recommend. HOWEVER, this is my second. First one I had for 5+ years and it just exploded one day (in the sense that the seam broke and the "goo" leaked out so I couldn't use it anymore. Glad to see they're still sold on the web as I bought one from Amazon the very same day mine died. Makes the early morning commute so much nicer. Plus, you can slip your gloves inside the sleeve while you're getting ready and Voila! you have toasty gloves as well. |

| Can someone please cry Sellout! | topher 1 has no idea what punk rock is. Blink 182 are the biggest sellouts i have ever heard. If you want punk rock listen to Rancid, GBH, Dead Kennedys, Vandals, H2O, Bouncing SOuls,Misfits or pennywise. Blink is not a punk band. There has never been a punk band that has been nominated for any MTV award. There never will be. Punk Bands do not need major labels, MTV, or Radio play to establish themselves. THey need their own talent. Blink 182 have established that they have none. They are an insult to everything punk stands for. THey have proven themselves too be more like Backstreet Boys with guitar. Come forward and say you're alternative. |

No more stiff back and legs after hockey! Added bonus- the cushion folds up compactly when not in use. |

| Remarkable Imagination | This is a must have book for every preschool classroom (and home). The pictures are true to life and since tricycles are easiliy identifiable by children it was easy to get them activily involved in the story. The pictures tell the story and children can easily predict what can or might happen next without being able to read a single word. The book elicits much language development encouraging the children to generate ideas and use imaginative learning. This book will literally take your children (class) in a new direction developmentally. Let their imagination run away with them... |

| Get the original instead. PLEASE, do yourself a favour and get the original instead. | This remake will only sound "better" to you if your definition of "better" is nothing more than replacing real instruments with hi-tech synthesizers. If you care about the technological aspects of music more than the music itself, you'll probably like this one more. But if you care about emotional resonance, PLEASE, do a favour to mankind and forget this one. Tubular Bells will remain timeless and awe-inspiring, while this remake will date very, very quickly. If you already have the original and want something more, go get "Incantations" or "Amarok", and only get this one if you worship soul-less exercises in technology like "The Songs Of Distant Earth". |

| Returned My "Greek" also | I've read about 20 of the reviews and see that I'm not the only one disappointed enough to return the "Greek" DvD. I won't keep it around because it's just not good. Josh Groban sounds poor, but it's not my problem, it's his. |

| Great Sophomore Effort | Young Buck did it again. This CD shows a lot of growth from Buck. He focuses on a range of subject matter throughout this album. On "Slow Ya Roll" and "Buck The World" he gets introspective, talking about hood life and how tough it was for him and his family. He has loud, anthemic songs like "Get Buck", "Buss Yo Head", and "Lose My Mind". His voice glides with ease over "I Know You Want Me" and "Hold On". All 18 tracks on here are good if not great. I personally like his first cd slightly more, even though this cd offers more diverse subject matter and a larger variety of songs. The whole cd is great from start to finish. It is the best G-Unit cd to come out since, well, his last one! |

| Just Watch the Movie | I was hoping that we could glean more information about the characters in the book than what was in the movie, but alas, I was wrong. I've seen the movie many times and each time I find a little more social commentary than the last time I watched it. I guess that's the reason I bought the book, but I got very little new information from it before I finally gave up on it :( |

| Josh Groban "Live at the Greek" | omg I thought it was just me!! I LOVE Josh Groban but when I saw his newest concert I was shocked at how bad Josh sounded. His beautiful voice was so bad that I couldn't watch any more than the first half hour. Unless you've been going to the concerts to see how he has transformed himself, you're also in for a shock because Josh looks different too. I just think the whole concert package was disappointing. I'm giving it two stars because I can't bear to give it one. I hope this change isn't permanent because I'll just not be able to buy Josh's songs anymore. |

| Fairly good | Yes the Blink cd is good!it is very! the only thing it lacks are new guitar cords! it almost has the same compared to enema. The only other thing about the cd i don't like is that Blink 182 released 3 different cds! you could tell what cd you have by wat sinple is on the actual cd! on each different cd you have 2 different hidden tracks. |

| Tastee Treat | Sounds Great. The band is really working their buns off. Gives songs a totally new perspective. Heartfelt tracks done superbly. The crowd is juiced from the opening track. Finn always underappreciated lets it rip. Just what the doctor ordered. |

| My Prerogative | Wow! This DVD covers her life-time career ...of only five years.I'm not even going to write a review for the DVD.I'm reviewing Britney in general. Her music isn't fake, but she is. I mean, look at her. She looks like barbie. And what's up with her changing her religion? Come on, be yourself, don't try to be like Madonna. You're never going to be like her so get over it. If you can't handle the press then maybe you shouldn't have thought about becoming "famous" in the first place.This is really original ground breaking music for Britney! What an "artist"! It doesn't look like a cheap copy of every other CD (or DVD) she's made with a little bit more Britney-esque sluttiness to try and sell it. |

| I loved how they tied it into the Kurt Russel version | I thought that was one of the coolest factors of this movie!!! I will be owning it as I own the Kurt Russel version!! CG was a little fake.. I so miss the good ol days when they used puppets and make-up.. Other people have already told you the basis of the movie so I dont' need to rehash it..I liked it and will be owning it!! |

| YAWN (zero stars) | All right, what do we have here? Lil Wayne raps about how stinking rich he is in almost every track and they all sound the same. Hmmm. This sounds very familiar. Where have I heard this before? Oh yeah, that's right. EVERY other Cash Money Album. So, since it is a Cash Money album, of course there is nothing new here. Just the same old tired theme.Sorry, I don't listen to rap to hear how stinking rich you are. I listen to it for good beats, cool lyrics, and a good delivery. This guy has ZERO on all fronts. The rapping is bad, the lyrics are very poor, and the beats are weak. Go back to school, Lil one!A prime example of why I am not the big rap fan I was in high school. Avoid this one like the plague.I'd say more, but it probably wouldn't make the posted review, if you catch my drift. As for the rest of the stuff, it better, because I did not use any offesive language or anything rude and crude. ... |

| Broke after 18 months from approximately 1 hour use a night | I bought this for my daughter. It broke after 18 months from approximately 1 hour use a night. The break was faulty power. The plug only powers it when jiggled a little bit out of the wall jack; that trick no longer works. Buying something else and doing a search for non-Coby products. |

| Worn out the original | I'm just about to replace this as I've damaged my original.One of my favourite records. First heard this back in the early 90's and I still play it. Timeless piece of music with gorgeous vocals.I' would be proud to write this.Where are they? |

| SMALL | This is a great backpack. The reason I bought is because of the durable zipper which broke on another Targus backpack I had. Beware, you can't fit much into this one! |

| A bit too graceful? | Wouldn't fault this compelling movie in purely cinematic terms. I would have given it 5 stars were it not for the nagging suspicion that it might have somewhat stylised the dysfunctional traumas involved. |

| An enchanting tale, brilliantly told | Bonnie Turner is an experienced childrens' novelist who clearly loves to write and does it very well indeed. This book is captivating, vivid and set in the beautiful North of Canada. Definitely a recommended book for younger readers.Ian Ruxton, co-author of "Japanese Students at Cambridge University in the Meiji Era", also available on amazon.com. |

| I thought a name like Brita would know how to make a lid | Boy, was I sorely mistaken. I saw reviews on here about the lid, the fact if falls off when pouring. I thought, yeah sure. Well, I found out I spent $32 bucks on a leaky pitcher where the lid does not fit securely, falls off when pouring. DON'T waste your money on this poorly made piece of plastic. Sure, they are pretty colors, but c'mon - the thing is not made well. |

| A definite thumbs up! | Well if you were thinking about purchasing this season... do so! I must say I have been a Doctor Who fan for some 27 years now and I have seen more episodes than I can count or recount if you get my meaning. As with the change from Christopher Eccleston to David Tennant I was not sure I would like the new Doctor, but Matt Smith nice job mate. I have all of the newer series and I have to say each one has been very entertaining and wonderful. I have a 9 year old and we have been watching each of the new series as they come out. This year has been wonderful and different than all the others. I thought the writers did a nice job bringing in new content and weaving in the old. I am really looking forward to the next season and I do hope they expand River's role some more. The characters of Amy and Rory were lovely as well. I will admit I would actually give this 4 1/2 stars because although it was truly lovely I'm saving my 5 in case next season is even better! |

| JUST A GLIMPSE OF JUDY GARLAND ! | IT'S SURPRISING TO ME THAT THIS DVD ONLY SHOWCASES A TINY MUSICAL CLIP OF MISS JUDY GARLAND ... IT'S ACTUALLY PATHETIC TO PUT A HOLLYWOOD LEGEND IN THE SAME CATEGORY OF SIMON & GARFUNKEL ! |

| Seems like a quality pack | This pack didn't fit my dog. I ordered the medium because she has a 28" girth and weighs 60 lb. However, she is a pretty compact, muscular dog, and this pack was too small. The chest strap was way too long and is unadjustable. I ordered a new pack from a different company. I don't like that there is only one belly strap on this one, but I couldn't tell how well it actually works. If it actually fit my dog, it may have been a very good pack, and seems to be well-constructed. |

| awsome | I have been a fan since the first album and it seems like every time that blink-182 comes out with a new cd they keep getting better and better. This cd is the best by far. |

| I TRIED!!!!! | Terrible. Can not take this new doctor. Have been a fan for years and always found it difficult when a new doctor I liked left and a new one appeared. But I always ended up liking the new doctor and stayed a fan since the Tom Baker years. The new series I thought would never work but to my surprise the first season was amazing. Then I see Christopher Eccleston is leaving the series and David Tennant is taking over as the new doctor. My first thought was what a dumb move they will never find a new doctor like Chris Eccleston. But to my amazement they found an even better doctor in David. I even loved Billie Piper and hated to see her leave. But this third doctor is pure torment to watch. I have tried, I honestly have tried, and it saddens me there is no possible way into tricking me into liking this new doctor. Horrible and terrible!!!! Should have ended the series after season four. |

| The Thing | They say 2011's The Thing was intended to be a prequel to the John Carpenter classic of the same name, but whether you call it a reboot, a remake, a retread, or a prequel, most agree on one thing: it was unnecessary. Rule of thumb: if you're going to invoke the name of a beloved classic and slap it on your film, it better be a damn good film, because comparisons to the original are inevitable. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is the ostensible lead here, as a paleontologist who is brought to an Antarctic research station where a spacecraft has been discovered beneath the ice, complete with an extraterrestrial survivor. When the alien promptly escapes its icy prison and begins taking the form of the various researchers, jump scares and gore ensue. I found The Thing far inferior to the original, meeting only the bare minimum for a horror movie; you might could check it out if you're curious, but you're probably better off going with the original. |

| Won't be keeping Mine either | The Greek DVD doesn't deserve to share shelf space with my other Josh Groban music (I have everything he did). Whatever the excuses, whatever the reasons, it's just not good. Nasaly? Congested? Strained? Yep, I heard it too. Josh Groban is the man with the beautiful voice. It was a big mistake to sell this one with the problems. I love Josh and because he's always so darned terrific, this one won't stay in my house. |

| trash | If you want punk.. go buy some RAMONES. If you want Rock, go buy some KISS. If you want some teenie bopper radio music buy Blink-182. Period.This album is terrible.. just like every one they put out before it and every one they'll put out after it. I am also dismayed that every 11 year old in my hometown seems to have at least 3 copies of this sugar coated [stuff]. It's really a shame that people can get rich off this "music?".If you want to buy a CD.. I might suggest one of the first four Ramones albums that are sold on this very website. You'll thank me later for recommending them. |

| Pathetic excuse for what America calls "music" | Okay, let me start off by saying this album does not even deserve the one star I gave it! This has got to be one of the absolute worst albums to ever go on sale. All it took was one episode,and I was completely nauseated. These are people trying to pass themselves off as artists,though they really don't understand the word art.These are people putting out pathetically cheesy albums,making money off other people who are completly, totally ignorant to what music really is,maybe even because they never really listen to real music. These are not people with raw talent. A dying whale could sing better than half the people on the show.Once again a utterly stupid manufactured pop song, that was was sung by another Mariah Carey wannabe with a "pretty" face will sell over raw talent.If you want to hear music by a beautiful woman who actually has talent,buy one of Courtney Love's albums. I mean really, is this what America calls "Music"? |

| Too Many Problems at the Greek | Josh Groban's "Live at the Greek" DVD just contained too many problems for me to enjoy. The most obvious one, of course, is his voice problems where he sounds really nasal. Then I can also add in that I didn't enjoy his new image and style. I can't understand why I still see advertisements on TV telling us that this is a tour of "Closer." The concert DVD has so many of his older songs and ones he did on the first concert. I agree that they weren't as good as the first. Groban couldn't improve on "Alejate" from the first concert it was so beautiful and he sang it so perfectly. Well, if this is what he's become, I'm out of it too. This DVD wasn't entirely bad, but bad enough for me to be angry with myself for buying it without a preview. Now I know I can listen at these websites before I buy. IF I every buy anything of Josh Groban's again, I'll check it out first. Right now, that's a big IF. |
