This Samurai doesn't lose face now.

Wed, 18 Apr 2001 15:57:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Overall, I do recommend this electric shaver. It was more than I wanted to pay ($119.99 at Target), but worth it. Why did I want it? It gives me the versatility to save face once in a while. Ummm. Lemmee esplain. I am cursed with a heavy,...

A very pressing matter

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 12:08:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I got two of these as a gift, and I find them to be a useful addition to my platoon of clamps (affectionately known as "C clamp Troop". The inability of these clamps to generate the bone crushing pressure of a pony pipe bar clamp does not make them...

Pump the Chump

Thu, 23 Nov 2000 02:54:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I got this product for the same reason most middle aged people do: to check if I'm still alive. No, that's not why. It's because I'm as hopelessly addicted to gadgets as Pogomom. No, that's not it either. It's that scattered checks of blood pressure...

"With your finger on my trigger....."

Fri, 17 Nov 2000 23:35:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Wish I could say "Happiness is a warm Toastmaster,", and actually it ain't bad, but it can't compete with lichee flavored castor oil, either. Specifically, we be discussing the Toastmaster 2207 model, rapid repeating, hand held can opener...

Honeeee, did you leave the Boeing 747 running in the garage?

Tue, 14 Nov 2000 10:56:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - First the good stuff. This is without doubt a quality tool. The noise chases the dog and the kids away so I can work in peace. The highway construction crew borrowed mine and removed an entire hillside with it. It is sturdy, and the case is made...

MAY-VAC, and then again it MAY NOT!

Fri, 10 Nov 2000 10:53:02 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I have had the dubious pleasure of having one of these submarine slithering rats for about eight years. I can best summarize its performance by quoting the Vocal Half (with apologies to PogoMom): "Warthog, I TOLD you to get the...

Sun, 8 Oct 2000 00:20:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Three days aboard the Viking Serenade from the Los Angeles area to Ensenada was a wonderful experience. My wife, Mary, and I did this cruise with Carnival two years ago. Take Royal Caribbean anytime. Carnival has larger rooms, but HEY, how much time...

Kenmore Manual Defrost Upright Freezer: BOY! Does this freezer FROST my ___!

Thu, 3 Aug 2000 10:01:29 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Well, it's like the spousal unit says, "Warthog, WHY are you so cheap?" I mean, she's right. Shoulda gone for the frost free, but in a way we did. I have never gotten a bill for the tons of frost that this jobbie generates. Can't get any...

Start your morning with a Bump and Grind

Tue, 4 Jul 2000 06:33:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I picked up one of these puppies for the office. It's sturdy and durable, and leaves a small footprint on your counter top. (Darn it, Kruppie, take off your shoes!) The lid is clear plastic, to allow you to see how finely the coffee and the 50 cents...

"Boy Toy" or.... Hardware Heaven!

Tue, 27 Jun 2000 01:50:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Yes, I confess, this is a tool I posilutely did not need. That made it all the more sinfully delicious to take home. This happy acquisition came about by judicious use of Christmas money. What more could a person of the male persuasion want? Well,...

Kenmore Countertop Microwave Oven: How I had a hot time with only micro equipment.

Fri, 26 May 2000 18:29:49 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - This is a Kenmore Microwave Oven, Model 721.68100791. Yes, that's really the model number, not the serial number. That's Sears for ya. If you want to complain about this, Sears' phone number is 7. This is a portable, table top model which retailed for...

Sperry DM-350A Digital Multimeter: Multimeter, Multimeter, How Shall I Use Thee?

Sat, 20 May 2000 20:22:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - If you are a just-starting-out homeowner, consider splurging for one of these devices. You can get one for $20.00, or you can pay more for one with more gee-gaws. If you don't give it to your bambini to play badminton with, you will have it for...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - And what an honor it is to be Epinion No. 369 on this fabuloso flick-o. Just what the world has been waiting for.

First let's cover the requisites. Verrrry well acted. Good pacing. Just enough human interest to keep interest. Issues...

They don't get any more reliable

Sat, 6 May 2000 05:13:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - There are few products about which I am sentimental enough to indulge in "brand loyalty". Maytag is one of them. We've used nothing else for our home for 25 years (By crackee. Hand me muh ear horn Momma!) They have treated us well. We buy...

Toshiba 27" TV, Model CZ27T31: Queen of Toshiba TV

Sat, 22 Apr 2000 13:26:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - We got our Toshiba 27" color TV (Model CZ 27T31) a month ago, and are pleased with it. We bought it at Best Buy as an "open box" special. They will discount any item that has been opened or returned. We paid $259 for it, but it sells...

Scrumptious And Healthy Salad

Fri, 21 Apr 2000 10:33:19 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - You can hardly open a magazine or newspaper today without reading how Americans are eating too much processed carbohydrates, how heart unhealthy we are, and how overweight. At the same time, much study is now devoted to how to lengthen your life...

Aggressive, Bipolar Gate--- Yuk!

Sat, 8 Apr 2000 14:16:29 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - What is interesting to me about this gate is that from the picture, I recognize it as the selfsame gate Mary and I bought 20 years ago for our eldest son, Matt. Matt's now at Berkeley, and if this gizmo were better made, I would install it in the TV...

What is Circulon good for? Awhile.

Sat, 8 Apr 2000 02:40:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - The spousal unit acquired a full set of the Circulon pots and pans about four years ago. The pots and pans are very well made, and they are not going to warp. The metal shell is thick, and the rivets that fasten the handle are heavy weights, not...

Have drill, Will travel!

Mon, 3 Apr 2000 01:29:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I bought the Ryobi 12 volt cordless drill a year ago for home handyman type work, both indoors and outdoors. I'm jealous of PWeisenberg, because he got his for $79 when I paid $99 for mine at Home Depot. Since it included two high quality batteries,...

MacGruff takes a bite out of Brokers!

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 02:18:45 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - Ummm. Lessee. I'm supposta tell you why I went to see this movie. Because nothing else started early enough so we could still pick up the princess after her party was over?

Voice Xpress Professional 4: Bye Bye Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.`

Wed, 9 Feb 2000 10:50:54 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I picked up this program, which comes with a microphone/earphone headset. You might want to get a better quality headset. I do not have the USB connector, which they recommend, so I might get even better results if I spring for a USB board.

Magnificent eye candy!

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 11:19:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - This film gem excels from the first moment of pastel images of the past, to a moving, feeling musical score that cradles and caresses you throughout, to the final heartfelt dialogue of defeat with hope.

What is unique about this film...

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 11:25:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - "You are about to experience the greatest treat on the Sonoma Coast, Brian," the legendary Gunheim brothers told me. With that, Geoff popped an abalone fillet into the pan with garlic and butter. This sucker (literally) had been blissfully...

Harris the Embarrassed

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 10:13:01 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Dinday - I won't drone on in this review, since the stench of this novel has been pointed out by many others, but I want to add one thought. What seems apparent on my reading of Hannibal, is that Harris "finished" the book, and was then told by his...
