Okay entertainment if you need to kill an otherwise boring evening

Tue, 21 Oct 2003 14:16:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I miss enough movies AT the movies, that we end up renting a lot of DVDs; this one being no exception. Sometimes I’m glad we spent only $3 instead of $16 (two adult movie tickets); this one being no exception. It wasn’t terrible. After al...

Natural Look with Maybelline's Lash Discovery with Mini Brush

Fri, 19 Sep 2003 10:46:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - The key here is the mini-brush. Okay, I’m not the most graceful person, so putting on mascara (particularly in a rush) can be a less-than-pretty venture. This mini-brush helps me NOT get mascara smudges on parts of my face ill-suited for mascara (chee...

Perfect for me; may be overkill for others

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - After trying every set-up known to man to get accurate SCANS of the jewelry I sell, I decided some things were just NOT meant to be scanned. I should have purchased a digital camera ages ago, but didn't because of one freakin' comment from a friend whi...

Webvan: Webvan can change your life for the better!

Mon, 5 Feb 2001 14:34:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - When this much time has gone by between epinions, it's a dubious task deciding which product to use to re-introduce myself to the community.

I feel so strongly about Webvan, though, it soon became the obvious choice. Oh, by the way, please...

Gold's Gym in Oakland, California

Mon, 19 Jun 2000 12:23:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Over the years, I've belonged to my fair share of gyms and health clubs. To me, there seem to be two distinct differences: some have overweight people as members, and others don't.

I will admit that I was a bit intimidated at first by the...

Clarke, Arthur C: The Author Who Inspired Me to Write

Fri, 9 Jun 2000 18:56:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Doing an epinion on Arthur C. Clarke is like asking someone to design a skyscraper using toothpicks.

I started reading Clarke at a very early age because we lived out in the country and I had easier access to my parents' books then to...

Wed, 7 Jun 2000 13:06:21 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Vengeance is mine! Sort of.

As I was driving home last night, I heard a news story that caught my attention. I'm afraid I might do a lousy job of paraphrasing, but I'll try my best to get it right.

Backstory: I wrote an epinion...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Why GREAT AMERICA?

Feeling guilty about my kids' only wish being temporarily denied them (they want to go to Disneyland), I settled on the next best thing... Great America.

Okay, maybe it's not really the next best thing... I still...

Wed, 12 Apr 2000 17:01:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - And once again I'm showing my complete ineptness at finding the right place to put my epinions. This, again, is the best I could do...

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:25:29 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I don't much like doing movie reviews because I feel obligated to give a bunch of information that requires either looking up or at least remembering and I also hate synopsizing plots. But I'll try to do my best here, as well as tell you why I'm writing...

Thank goodness they make this... I was looking for AGES!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I bought this teapot for several reasons:

-- I was on the look out for a teapot to use at the office to encourage me to keep up on my liquid intake seeing as how my dentist forbids me to drink lemon water anymore... Gggrrr....

An Unnecessarily Long Epinion

Mon, 3 Apr 2000 15:11:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Well, after using this adapter as an analogy in my piece about long versus short epinions, I now feel obligated to go ahead and actually review the product.

Here's the deal: we all know what AC adapters are for, right? You save battery...

Fri, 17 Mar 2000 18:41:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - As I've said before (in other children's software reviews): I'm the mother of two young children, and I work a full-time job and a part-time job, so my goal in buying software for the kids runs something like this:

Will the kids be able to...

Stewart, Mary: She's the First Author I Ever Became Loyal To

Fri, 17 Mar 2000 15:52:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I was first introduced to this author's books by a good friend of mine in High School. We were both interested in medieval and magical things, so she told me about Mary Stewart's (then) two books about Merlin:

Hodge, Brian: Amazing! Sets a New Standard for Horror Authors

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 20:24:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I've not read enough Hodge to be any kind of expert on him, but I see this category here with NO opinions yet and that slays me, so....

My two cents on Brian Hodge:

I used to review short stories, so most of my Hodge reading takes...

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 15:59:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - My first introduction to Tom Piccirilli's work was in the format of a short story in one of my favorite horror magazines.

The reason this story made such an impression on me was two-fold. First off, the guy can write! He writes the way I...

It even put ME to the test... but we all LOVE IT!

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 15:15:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - My experience with MCI WorldCom was with their capacity as a long distance carrier. But since the name/company's the same, I'll give my opinion here.

My opinion is in the form of a chronological history of the events of my dealings with...

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 14:51:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - I generally learn things the hard and slow way... quite after the fact and too late to have saved myself a bunch of strife.

But I lucked onto THIS item with only a minimum of previous stupidity to the issue.

I purchased a Gameboy...

Pokemon: Don't hate it just because it's a fad

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 01:31:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Lighthouse - Look, what's the harm? Kids love it. It's not gory violent. There's no sex involved (unless you count Brock's goo-goo eyes every time a new girl character's around). And Pokemon really sharpens your children's short-term memory. I mean, there's a...
