| My Thoughts | I think that this is a good album, not his best, but very good. My personal favorite is #2, it is off da chain! For those of you who have just been dogging this record, I just don't think that it was made for you. I believe it's for those of us who like to have a good time and are fans of Nelly. |

| New Old Time Music | I enjoyed the O.C.M.S. very much. I have been dismayed for the last decade or so about the homogenization of pop music. I can't tell country from rock or rock from hip hop. Along comes the O.C.M.S. and I can hear something that stands out from the rest and is a lot of fun to boot. I realize that their music is not ground breaking or visionary but it is not self absorbed or annoying like most of the so called folk or singer songwriter crap that is dominating the adult alternative market (which is where the program directors are probably pigeonholing them) these days.If you just want to hear some great goodtime music to have a hillbilly party with, pick up O.C.M.S. crack open a bottle of Jim Beam and grab your honey.P.S. I can not find any Bob Dylan song called "Wagon Wheel", and I've searched long and hard. What up with dat? |

| I'm not the only one! | I thought I was the only fan who was unhappy with my DVD of "Life at the Greek"!! This makes me so sad because I love Josh's voice. Since I'm also studying voice he was a role model. Now Josh seems to be just another rock star now that he's let his voice go for sure. I can hear the strains and my teacher would too. Josh just needs to re-train his voice to get the quality back. He truly sounds better in his first concert. |

| It does not stay charged long enough to listen to even 3 songs. | I have tried everything to see if it is my charger but sadly no. It turns green after a few hours of charging and then I will try to use it and then it suddenly dies. : P I have already notified the seller to correct this mistake. |

| Propaganda and lies from the daughter of a traitor. | The first thing to look for when you want to read a book is the credibility of the author. And unfortunatly in this case the author has no credibility. Malika Oufkir had without a doubt been traumatised by her experience to a great extent. She portrays herself as a victim and tries to get the sympathy of the reader. I was born and raised in Morocco and familiar with the story of this family. The author omits to mention in her book who her father really was. General Oufkir tried to overthrow the head of the moroccan government but his attempt failed. .... |

| Josh Groban Live at the Greek | This concert set won't be making my collection. It's simply a trash cousin to the first. Actually there's very little to compare to the first except that Josh Groban was there. I just found this second site. All the major reviews are at the other site (yes there's two). |

| Fine Movie, Disappointing DVD | I won't comment on the movie except to say that I do like it and would agree with the other favorable comments here. I've seen it more than a few times and it always is an enjoyable experience. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for the DVD release. The audio is adequate though it is only stereo. I didn't notice any particular problems with it. The video, on the other hand, is decidely inferior. It looks like it was transferred from a medium quality video tape. I have seen better looking presentations on broadcast TV. I had a tape recorded off the air that looked as good as this DVD. But the tape is gone and the DVD will at least last. The best thing that can be said about the DVD's video is that it is widescreen, but it is not anamorphic. Very disappointing. I hope some company will do a decent release of this in the not to distant future. |

| Raisins aren't suppose to be green | Not sure if I just had bad luck with my last order of Ener G Foods. I got moldy raisin bread along with my moldy sweet potato muffins. Expiration dates were in 2010 so I didn't think I should have a problem. The weather in Wisconsin isn't that warm and humid yet to promote mold growth. I have frozen the remainder of my packages to stop the mold process but I will hope for the best in my next ordering. |

| Disappointing | When I first flipped through this book, I was surprised by how many entries did not have any story about how the place was named. When I started to dig deeper, I found that the places I was looking for (mainly rivers and lakes) were not even in the book.Alaska is a huge place and 191 pages do not nearly do it justice. I'd suggest, at best, looking up Alaska Place Names in the library before buying it. Chances are the information you seek is not in there. |

| Red sashbuckler | CAPTAIN SCARLETT is a real turkey that was surely kiddie matinee material six decades ago.Here you have a princess" disguised" as a man in clingy shape-enhancing trousers that reveal what's missing up front, and a satin blouse that doesn't hide her naders too well. Capt. Scarlett is a hambone in red sash and cape who runs around defeating a half-dozen or more swordsmen with ease.The only good thing to arise from the Technicolor stinkcloud this one raised is star Greene's collaboration with writer/producer Howard Dimsdale on theROBIN HOODTV show, another kidfest.Avoid at all costs!.Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 IMDb viewer poll rating.(4.6) Captain Scarlett (1953) - Richard Greene/Leonora Amar/Nedrick Young/Manuel Fábregas/Eduardo Noriega/Carlos Múzquiz/Isabel del Puerto/Jorge Treviño |

| Josh Groban's Voice is better than LATG | I think someone wrote here that Josh Groban is better than what we saw at his Live at the Greek concert. I agree. It was a bad night and a bad time for him. But we're rating the DVD, not an actual experience sitting in a concert audience. While I don't want to rate anything by Josh Groban so low, I can't help it. His voice is very congested and it's difficult to listen to. We are seeing re-runs of the concert because it's pledge week! Even seeing it again, I came to the same conclusion. |

| The Future of European Punk | We all remember the days of The Sex Pistols and and The Clash rocking our worlds with their new european sound, and now covet the albums of such bands as The Hives to save ourselves from the torment of pop music. Such albums as this seem to have cemented their spot towards the top of our collection. The cd starts out with the contagious sounds of Declare Guerre Nucleiare, and never lets up. Although nothing can compare to the wonderous days of The Ramones and Elvis Costello, The Hives come pretty close. Bands such as this enlighten me with hope on the possibility of good music actually being available to the mainstream audience since the days of Nirvana. If you enjoy to be blown out of your mind with the rocking tunes of fast drums and guitars with amps set to blow your mind, I highly reccommend this album. |

| Excellent quality, a bit light for espresso? | This is the lightest roast I've encountered that calls itself "espresso roast." The quality, however, is so much better than what I've been drinking that my wife and I are torn on the issue of purchasing more. On the one hand, we'd like a darker roast. On the other, the quality of this coffee is so much better than what we've been making espresso from that we aren't sure we want to change coffees. I think we'll probably search for a darker roast that has the quality of this Lavazza, but, if we don't find it we'd be likely to come back to this quality rather than drink a darker roast of lesser quality. Excellent coffee. |

| Best Blink-182 cd | I think this is blink-182's best album. My faviorite songs on it are "Stay Together for the Kids", "Shut Up", "Online Songs" and "First Date". This album was great, but I didn't like their next one as much. They changed too much and if they make another album, they should stop trying to be some other band and be themselves. They are my faviorite band. I am excited about Plus-44 and Angels And Airwaves. I think Plus-44's song, "No it isn't" was great. If you haven't heard it, go to Plus-44's website. |

| Not universal | The Book cover blurb doesn't tell the buyer that the auther is an Episcopalian Priestess. If the reader is a liberal Episcopalian, the reader will probably love the book. However, Heart Wisperers isn't for everyone and might be a disapointment or even offensive for some readers.The book is fairly well written, but not for the general audience of Benedictines. Roman Catholic Oblates would find there are many pages with theological and moral unsoundess.Frankly, what is disapointing, is it wouldn't have taken that much effort to strip out the snipe at the Fundimentalists and tone down the social re-engineering comments. Perhaps in the future Canham will write books that have a broader appeal. |

| AMC huh? | None of these six John Wayne programmers can in any way be considered CLASSIC, and don't be fooled by that AMC logo on the front cover. You are NOT getting pristine studio quality copies, but dubs of half-century old, well-used 16mm broadcast films.The six titles are in the public domain and widely available from every budget label DVD maker out there. They're mid-1930s hour-length oaters, typical undistinguished Saturday matinee double feature stuff.In the past, this label --GENIUS ENTERTAINMENT-- has issued DVDs in slimlne cases and cardboard envelopes.A big caveat emptor here!PS--Check out that first customer review of"AMC" MOVIES: GREAT DETECTIVE CLASSICS. |

| A STRANGE, HAUNTING WORK OF SURREALISM | The Orange Tree is a book of unusual beauty. Fuentes, once again playing the historian, presents a reiteration of Latin American history which is utterly convincing as a piece of pure mythology. This perhaps lies in Fuentes' uncanny ability to assign either perfect charm or horrifying ugliness to so much of what he describes: the spectacular fall of the Aztec Empire; the complex seige of a Spanish city by the Romans; the dreamlike arrival of Columbus to a ambivilant paradise.The five novellas of The Orange Tree offer the reader voices which seem to speak from beyond life and history. We are presented tales of death and suffering in a context so huge, so ambitious, that Fuentes has destroyed the barriers of history and constructed a reality all his own. The lavishness of his vision is hypnotic.Read this book with abandon; allow its mythology to consume you. |

| Pretty great for the price. | It does what I wanted it to so I'm happy with it. I wanted a DVD player that would play .avi files and could not find a single one that I could actually afford. I tried my luck with this and it plays them! The only reason I'm giving it four stars is because it will occasionally take a couple of opening and closing the drawer for a burned DVD to load. |

| Life changing | I now mark my life into two parts - life before and after The Room. After seeing The Room, things seem differently. Colors now have taste. Taste no longer exists. My ears are filled with Tommy Wiseau's "Oh, hi there!"See The Room, and be transformed into another consciousness that never knows how people behave, or talk, or think. A fever dream in which situations arise and disappear without leaving a trace. Where leading men can look like shambling corpses a few weeks old. Where the meaning of roses and chocolates have become perverse symbols of love. Where perversion is normal, where normal is perversion.This is... The Room. |

| Packaging Issues | Let me start by saying that what I've seen of Matt Smith's tenure as the 11th Doctor is very promising so far. That's not what this review is aboutI was shocked, having purchased previous series of new Who as well as everything available at present of classic Who, to see how cheap and shoddy the packaging is the Series 5 releaseJust one piece of tape theoretically holding together all the trays the various DVDs are in. And numerous cracks in thoseBut the worst bit was being right in the middle of the two-parter The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone and, when I went to put in disc 3 to continue to story, having it not play. And then, turning the disc over, seeing a huge crack in itI'm not sure if something happened during shipping or what, but I'm quite disappointed and will be returning it. It's put a hamper on my enjoyment of Series 5. Maybe I should have gone to Best Buy to get it or some such...Doctor Who: The Complete Fifth Series |

| Nice watch, 24 hr count down times, good light, loud alarm | Pretty watch, band is easily slid out to remove for washing but sturdy enough it won't come out on it's own. This is definitely a watch that can fit adults and maybe kids 9 and up. Thinner canvas type band which I highly prefer to the rubber. Only thing worth mentioning negative is under the watch face but on top of the band there is a plastic "sticker" to keep it shiny during manufacturing and that is made to be removed by the customer . Not obvious and was worried I could have forgot it on/ baby chocked on it removed it. Very remove possibility :P |

| Offset cards are not good; I want new cards or my money back | There is a white border around the entire card that is totally offset...take a look at the cards and you will see what I mean. I have never had this problem before, but I don't want offset cards. I'm paying good money for these cards, and they are not good quality at all. I want new cards or my money back, but I can't use these in my business. I work as a professional psychic/tarot card reader and Astrologer. I want top quality tools when I work with the public.Sincerely,Whitney |

| READ A CITY IN WINTER!!!! | A City In Winter is a wonderful book. It's about a little girl who goes on an adventure to find the person who killed her parents. When she gets to the village, she meets two bakers who's names are Astrahn and Notorincus. They help her throgh the story. They told the little girl that if she ever got caught, to tell them that she's a yam culer. During the story, the little girl works in the yam kitchen and finally meets up with the tutor, that raised her when she was little. He knows that she is the queen and in order to keep her safe, he sacrifices himself to tell everyone that the queen is alive. Also in order for the queen to be safe, Astrahn and Notorincus ran up the stairs to the tutor's room. On the way, Astrahn is shot and can't go on. So Notorincus finished running up the stairs and kept the queen safe.In the end the little girl opens the door and everything and everyone gets silent, for they know that she is the queen.I thought that this book was a great book!! |

| Trick or treat! | Listening to the Hives is a bit like answering your door on Halloween and finding your neighbor's ten year old kids dressed up in homemade Iggy Pop, Fred 'Sonic' Smith and Sky Saxon costumes. They're simply adorable, and you love their spunk, but there's no way in hell you'd mistake them for the real thing. The Hives have obviously spent quite a lot of time perfecting their trashy lyrics, wailing Ron Asheton guitar licks and rock & roll attitude, and therein lies the problem. Everything about this record is flawlessly executed, and totally predictable. It's easy to grow your hair out and jump around with a vintage guitar hollering about tearing things apart, but it's a lot harder to do it like you really mean it. |

| Believe the Bad Reviews | I purchased the Coby CX-96 to use for local broadcasts in my gym -- basically to hear the broadcasts from the TV monitors. I figured, despite the criticisms I read here, that it would be good enough for my purposes. It isn't.My gym broadcasts on three channels. This unit picks up only one of these and it receives it over a wide range of its different digital channels. I'm still using it as the sound is okay and the one channel it gets is useful for me, I guess, but I am basically shocked that the product is as poor and ineffective as it has turned out to be. I've also found the arm band to be completely useless. It's not strong enough to hold onto my arm. If you tried to make a bad product, this would be it.It's not a good value at any price. If you get one for free, you might consider keeping it. |

| Not what I expected | After watching "The Whole Nine Yards" I tried very hard to buy a CD with the Charlie Biddle Trio, but couldn't find one anywhere. I discovered he owns (owned?) a jazz club in Montreal(?) (the one that appears in the movie), I wrote to them and received a very polite reply saying Charlie didn't have any commercial recordings. What a pity!! Some time later I had the incredible luck of finding a very good MP3 complete version of "Les Feuilles Mortes" (as played in the movie) in one of the music download sites. Seek and you shall find... Good luck.Biddle Jr is of little interest to jazz lovers. |

| Ergonomic, durable and fashionable! | I have used many backpacks with my dogs before and this one is by far my favorite so far. I have a 60 pound lab mix and like to climb 14ers with him so he must carry all his own water, scree shoes and other gear. I ordered the medium and it fits him very well, does not interfere with his movements and stays securely in place. The excess strap length needs to be tied back around otherwise they will drag, however. The long straps will ensure that the pack will fit all sizes of dogs; I am considering permanently shortening mine. As with all backpacks, dogs need to learn that they are wider than before and must practice going between boulders and other obstacles before you set out on your long trek. Happy T(r)ails! |

| Winter Love, Winter Wishes | This easy-reading novel is a 5-star book in my views!! I read it in a mere two days, because I could not stay away from it. If you are looking for an easy reader, that has a good plot, and an enjoyable ending, this is the book for you. It was well written, and VERY cute. The character variety was also a plus, because almost everyone could relate to one of the characters. |

| The Best CD I've Ever Come Across ... | The first time I heard "Hanging By A Moment" last year right after 'No Name Face' was released, I instantly loved it, so I ran out and bought the CD, and I have to say this is the first album I have ever had that I actually like all of the material on it. All the songs from the deep love song 'Breathing,' to the hit-you-hard-there 'Quasimodo' are wonderfully written and preformed. If you want a really, really good CD, 'No Name Face' is a must have ... and no body I know disagrees. Lifehouse is for sure not going to be your typical one-hit wonder. |

| Wonderful | The "American Idol Greatest Moments" CD is wonderful to own if you were a fan of the show and are going through Idol withdraw.Along with everything else, you get four Kelly Clarkson songs. "Respect" and "Natural Woman" are extraordinary and "A Moment Like This" and "Before Your Love" are great, too.The other songs on here that are worth the money are Tamyra's stunning rendition of "A House Is Not a Home," Christina's soulful "Ain't No Sunshine," E.J.'s beautiful "I'll Be," Ryan's bubbly "If You Really Love Me," Justin's memorable "Get Here" & "For Once In My Life" and Nikki's rockin' "Piece of My Heart" (although I wish they would have used "Black Velvet" instead).Overall, the record company did a fantastic job of choosing which songs to put on this compilation. This is a great buy for American Idol fans! |

| Love the movie, hate the DVD! | This was one of my favorites as a kid. I was really disappointed with this DVD. You can see the film grains, especially in the live action/animated scenes. Also, I don't remember the film entirely, but it seems like they left ALOT of stuff out that was in the original movie. Its weird that they would NOT take the time to perform a restoration of some sort when transferring from VHS to DVD. |

| LIVE IN COPENHAGEN 1973 | This quartet session was recorded live at the Montmarte Jazzhus 7/73 a day or two before the classic encounter with Dexter Gordon. The sound is better here than on his previous Montmarte quartet live recording the year before. The tunes are all originals. Kenny Drew's Callin' was good enough to be recorded again with Dexter aboard. Where Is Love is a good ballad. A Ghetto Lullaby starts out slow then picks up, shades of Gone with the Wind. The rhythm section is led by pianist Kenny Drew. |

| You Got To Be Kidding | If this is the future in music we are [in trouble]. With all the hype about these guys I expected something better than a cheap imitation of early Kinks or Romantics. Punk is just a code word for I cant play this equipment,but I look cool. These guys cannot play,the guitar playing is somewhere above Sid Vicious & less than the dead Mark Bolan,and he knew all of 9 chords. If you see this in a budget rack for 3 bucks,it might be worth it if you are hard up. Save your money and spend it on Coors & the twins. |

It is one of the few books that I do not tire of reading over and over and over again to the kiddos.Only draw-back is that it is permanately stuck in my head. Can't go to the zoo without finding myself saying the rhymes. Oh, who am I kidding, that's not a draw-back...it is kinda fun! hee hee |

| piece of garbage, don't buy | This is a piece of garbage, the top green portion was in so tight we could not get it out, numerous people tried, we put it in the freezer thinking the cold would shrink it, we tried to put olive oil down the sides, NOTHING WOULD BUDGE THAT GREEN PIECE OF PLASTIC! So we got some pliers and started to pull, CRACK, it broke into two pieces, into the trash, we were all so angry at that point! I read the reviews saying buyers were dumb and didn't put the thing together right, we never had a chance to take it apart to put it together right, the green piece was just way tight and would not budge. I hope others don't buy it, ths is the only way they will learn not to mass produce garbage. (And no, I didn't want to repack the broken pieces, trot to the post office, then fight and explain that it wasn't my fault it was broken to get a refund, my time is money.) |

| Looking for the Perfect concert DVD?? | If you haven't heard Josh Groban in concert at all and you're looking for the perfect DVD/CD set you may want to pass up the "Greek." I would suggest that you buy "Josh Groban in Concert," his first concert set. It was perfection and was a great showcase for Groban's impeccable voice. Groban's "Live at the Greek" has left many people (including me) incredibly disappointed. Even though it's only been two years it hasn't been a good two years for Josh. I bought both DVD sets and the difference is so obvious. So are the reviews by people who have seen them. Just compare the reviews (and overall grade) here to the reviews for Josh's first concert. But don't take my word for it. Most stores have a listening area where you can compare them for yourself. I couldn't listen to Greek for more than 30 minutes. |

| Dog Hikes | I love this back pack so much I bought one for my brother-in-law's puppy. I have a 60 pound labrador puppy and Cesar Milan recommends giving working dogs a "job". At first my dog did not like having it on her back, but once we get off on the trail, she forgets about it. She does walk well (no pulling) when she is wearing it. I load it evenly on each side with small frozen water bottles, and as they melt - I use them to give her water. Two things to be aware of - the belly strap will work its way loose on a long hike and will need to be readjusted. I am thinking of adding a snap to keep it tight, but am waiting until my puppy stops growing. The two side bags must be weighted equally so the pack does not pull to one side. |

| The Room | The absolute worst movie and funniest movie ever made. You can watch this movie over and over again and find something new to laugh at. The acting is soooo bad, the storyline is soooo flawed, the production values are soooo bad and the only thing that exceeds this is the acting by the star, author, producer and director, Mr. Tommy Wiseau. The funniest thing is that Mr. Wiseau actually believes he is a good film maker and actor and somehow raised 6 million dollars to make this movie. I recommend this movie- it is the ultimate movie that raises the question "What were they thinking?"The Room |

| A remarkable melodic fusion of style and substance | The fusion of Jonathan Byrd' new folk and Dromedary's world country makes for an out of this world musical experience. Jonathan is a songwriter extraordinaire whose talents, when combined with the virtuoso instrumental performances of the Dromedary duo of Rob McMaken and Andrew Reissiger, creates an exceptional musical journey. The sound clips of this album do not do it justice. It is a remarkable melodic fusion of style and substance. |

| Attractive space saver, though slow to toast | In the aesthetics department this item is top notch for anyone going for a stainless steel look in their kitchen. Brushed steel on front, with a black glass window - black metal on sides. Surprisingly, this is more important that I would have thought.It microwaves well, though at 650W. The controls are convienent, and fast - with a single "one minute" button to save time on reheats. Seems to cook very evenly.A nice function is the ability to turn the sound off completely - ridding your home of one source of beeps and chirps.The oven works well for cooking. The toaster works surprisingly well, but it takes close to 3 minutes for a slice of bread. In the toast department, I'd recommend a stand-alone drop-in style toaster.You can combine cooking and microwaving in steps (thaw then cook, not both at once). |

| Overpriced markers | I bought these for my 5 yr old who loves drawing. I can't believe I paid $10 for 4 markers. She was never able to blend the colors properly. The darker color always over-powered the lighter color. These markers are nothing special and certainly not worth the money! |

| "Live at the Greek" DVD+CD are Terrible | Before adding my review about the "Live at the Greek DVD," I wanted to check out some reviews here. Everyone who have a 3-5 star review talked about being AT the concerts and how great Groban was. HELLO!! This is the review site for the DVD+CD!! That's why people are talking about what they heard and saw on the DVD.I really don't care what goes on at other concerts or for that matter what went on at this one. What I cared about is that I bought this DVD set and it was beyond disappointing. Groban's voice was so bad I couldn't believe it either. Visually it was annoying. When you're AT a concert, you don't see all this. But here it is on DVD for all to see.This was not a worthy second concert by Josh Groban. I have the first one and it is spectacular. So now he wants to do other things....Let him. I'll be buying other music. Something where the singer doesn't sound nasal. Hmmmm. That shouldn't be hard to do. |

| Terrible, I mean just terrible. | This alien gore fest was a big let down. I really expected a lot more then another zombie flick. Got two stars for the special FX. Bypass this one, you are warned. |

| Waste of Money | Total waste of money. Bottles pop out when door is opened. Holders do not hold item properly. If I could give zero stars, I would... |

| awful and not reflective of her brilliance | Rory Block is the best country blues guitarist and singer on the planet today. She was trained as a kid by the elder statesmen of the blues, people like Son House and Mississippi John Hurt, and she has done more than anyone to honor their legacy. My respect for her is boundless. That's why I am incredulous that she created this just-plain-awful album. The idea of producing an album of children's music is not inherently bad, but the execution on this album was terrible. Every song on this album made me cringe. I could not even listen to the album in its entirety. Even as a Rory Block completist, I chose to discard this album and try to forget that a woman whom I admire so much was ever capable of creating such garbage. |

| accident waiting to happen | You have to check the filter often or you can get an overflow can cause damage. The potential water damage outweigh the benefits for me. |

| I didnt like it | I bought this lookout on tuesday hoping to connect it to my hamster cage. When I got it, I tried to attach it from the top. First, it wouldnt slide into the whole from the top so i had to open the whole top on the cage and put it in like that. Second, the lookout wouldnt stand up! the hole was bigger then the lookout so the lookout would slide everywhere. I hated this fun-nel! Its very annoying! I wouldn't recommend this item to anyone because I ended up returning it and its really a bother. |

| Stopped working in only a few months... | The CD player just stopped working after only a few months of use. It isn't expensive but now I have to buy something else. Don't waste your time. |

| Opened the bottle - stinks to high heaven! | I am not sure when the odorless part starts (after ingesting????) because I am afraid to try taking it now that I have received it and smelled it. I bought it and opened it, so now I can't return it. I am out of a good bit of money and I couldn't choke down one of these caps if I tried. They stink something fierce. I am pretty frugal and pretty adventuresome, however in this case I am afraid if I take these caps I will stink like they do. I have a job dealing with the public, and do not want to offend my family or pets either, so I will have to take a loss on this product. Buyer beware! If I could give lower than 1 star I would. |

| A gift | I have given this novel to countless friends and relatives, particularly those who say "What should I read?" Beautiful, lyrical prose that still tells a story (sometimes beautiful, lyrical prose doesn't). I love the collective voice of the narrator(s) -- two sets of sisters, all cousins. A masterpiece. |

| Awesome ! | Before having "Take off your pants and jacket" I really wasn't a fan of blink 182. But I've to admit that I was wrong thinking Blink was only three teenagers who wanted to have a lotta fun and didn't have any musical sensibility. Well all the songs of the album sound the same, but actually it doesn't matter because the album gives off an irresistible energy.Every song stay in mind I love Blink 182 |

| Rock and Roll Lives!!! | Imagine the lyrical brilliance and melodic sensibilities of Lennon/McCarthy, the molten riffs of Jimmy Page and Tony Iomi, the soul and passion of Robert Johnson, and the force and energy of the Ramones, all in one band. The White Stipes is all this and more. They're quite simply the best "real" rock and roll band performing today. In a world of prepackaged, computer generated garbage that gets past off as "music", the White Stripes are proudly carrying the torch.The chemistry between Jack and Meg is amazing. I've never seen a band this much in synch since Led Zeppelin with John Bohnam. They literally can finish each other's sentences (musically speaking).If you've only heard the White Stripes on radio or CD, then get this DVD. The true measure of a band is whether or not they can cut it live. The White Stripes could easily wipe the floor with any other live act performing today. |

| Bad Movie Night | First off, this rating is for a Bad Movie Night, thusly, I've chosen to invert the rating scale.This movie is so horrible it's funny. While watching it, feel free to point out the plot holes, various continuity errors, and just about everything else. The acting is as good as a horrific soap-opera gone wrong -- random movements and actions where they just don't fit in.The direction of this movie suggests that it was originally meant to be a drama, however, after audience walk-outs and the cultish following it gained in LA, Wiseau now covers it up as if it was originally meant to be a black comedy. |

| Satan is alive and well | Just the fact that this mess of a CD exists and people bought it shows the power Satan(or whatever name for evil you prefer) is running rampant in the world. I once wrote a song called "Dave Evans Must Die" because the music here is so boring. |

| Described as new. Was not new. | When I ordered this item (DVD of "The Thing" 2011), it was described as "New in shrink-wrap". When it arrived, I opened it to find that it was not new. It was a Rental. I noticed a few light scratches. I thought that if it played okay, I would let the fact that is wasn't New, slide. It played fine. I got to the "Bonus Features" to find that I could not access them because it was a Rental.That pissed me off. How can someone describe an item as "New", when it is clearly "Used"? I contacted the vendor via email through Amazon on Jun 17 2012, to resolve this issue, and have received no response.Amazon needs to screen these vendors a little more closely to make sure they are selling items as described. I will not use this vendor ever again and I am VERY UNSATISFIED.How does one resolve issues when the vendor does not reply to your request?If I could have rated this with zero stars, I would have. That's how pissed I am. |

| Smoothing the way for love | Originally recommended to me by my doctor and it is an excellent product. It is not sticky, not staining, about the same consistency as massage oil without the oily feeling. It is not an irritant. If you need a product like this I think it's the best. |

| Very confusing. | The watch is cute and water resistant but hard to use. I even tried googling the directions but I couldn't find good help. I wouldn't recommend this watch if you are not tech savy. |

| A pleasure from start to finish! | I first heard of Amanda Wilkinson through my American friend, who is a Country fan. I was hooked, and had to get my own copy of this CD. It is beautiful--a wonderful mix of uptempo and ballads, love gone wrong and love just right... She hits all the right notes!I'm a New Zealander living in Japan, and know very little about Country. But if I liked this, then I think nearly everyone would! |

| Live at the Greek: Poorly Done | I bought Josh Groban's latest concert, "Live at the Greek" to enjoy a second concert by one of my favorite Pop singers. Unbelievably, I couldn't bear to watch the first 30 minutes. I kept fast-forwarding hoping Groban would sound and look better. He didn't. Whatever he decided to do on his concert tour it certainly isn't much of "Closer" as advertised and it certainly isn't the quality that anyone should expect from any singer. His voice is so poor I just turned it off. I also determined it wasn't worth keeping and returned it to the store. |

| Amazing Little Tool | I love kitchen gadgets and tools. The Anolon Small Strainer is the perfect size for my small galley kitchen. The conical shape is especially useful for my morning coffee which I brew in a ceramic Turkish style pot. I never liked the extra grounds and this filters them out perfectly. It is worth the price. |

| NIce Toy | I bought this for my 10 month old and she likes the movements and the sounds it makes. I thought it would move and play music when the balls were thrown in but it doesn't. I do enjoy seeing her trying to figure why the legs are moving and where the noise is coming from and also I enjoy watching her learn how to throw the balls in and take them out...not really educational but a nice toy for infants |

| David Halberstam is a wonderful writer. | This book really explains the inner workings of coaching. It gets the reader so interested in the mechanics of the game offootball. It also is a story of a wonderful father-son relationship. David Halberstam is a great story-teller. |

| Watched "Greek" on PBS | I watched Josh Groban's concert "Live at the Greek," when it was televised by PBS in December. I heard the vocal strains then and decided not to buy the DVD/Cd combo then. I can tell from the comments here that I made a good decision. Hopefully the next thing Groban does is better. I don't think he has more room to disappoint anyone again. |

| Blu-ray? If you purchase a product it should be what you pay pay for! | Yes the problem I have with this is that the Blu-ray Disc would not play on my blu-ray player it tried to connect to the internet on my blu-ray player. Not all blu-ray owners own x-boxes or playstations. I shouldn't have to buy a x-box or playstation to watch a blu-ray movie when I have a blu-ray player already. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT UNTIL THEY COME OUT WITH A BLU-RAY DISC THAT WORKS ON BLU-RAY PLAYERS! |

| Cheap piece of junk | This is a flimsy piece of junk. The laser pointer stopped working for me after a day or two. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because the changer did work, but only for about 6 months and then that broke too. Now I have to get something else but definitely will not buy this again. |

| It doesn't get any better than this!!! | 2001 is one of the greatest novels written by Arthur C. Clarke but 2010 is even greater. It is perhaps the best of them all! Before I read this book I had strongly suspected that it would be a weak attempt to follow up on one the greatest sci-fi stories ever written but I was mistaken. Fortunately, because this novel explains much of the stuff from 2001 which weren't that clear in the first place all the while it expands the odyssey universe to an extend that is even greater in scope than in the first novel. The only negative thing there is to say is that the first half of the novel is a bit technical. Some of the things going on can be a bit tedious I think but this is entirely made up for in the second half which, for my part, is probably the best work of fiction I have ever read! Clarke's imagination is apparently infinite and it is no wonder that he has recieved the status of both guru and prophet. |
