A Cheap Alternative

Wed, 16 Jun 2004 01:33:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - A few weeks ago, I decided I would build a simple drip irrigation system for the plants in my front yard. I jumped right in with only the insight I gained from a few web searches. One of the largest components of any irrigation system is the valve...

A Computer AND a Phone!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I purchased the Hitachi G1000 six months ago with my tax return. Sprint was offering a deal that marked it down from $650 to $500 and my wife actually encouraged me to get it (sorry guys, she's taken). I felt very nervous dropping so much...

What a surprise, I make fun of Compaq!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I was thrilled when I heard we were replacing our dinosaur 700 MHz computers at work with brand new systems. I was disappointed when I opened the new box. There I was, staring at a Compaq logo. I HATE Compaq computers. It had been my...

Smokin!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - When I recently moved, I decided to try Cox@home high speed cable rather than having to deal with QWest for my old DSL connection. I was pleasantly surprised with my new ISP. Over all, I have had no real problems and have found the service to be...

They put this thing in the TOY category?!!

Wed, 4 Oct 2000 00:21:32 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - UPDATED: I took some advice found in my comments section.

This review is going to be mostly about the idea of the Ouija board, and not so much about the product itself. After all, what is there to review aside from a piece of...

Burn me some boot leggin!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - During my trip to Best Buy for a new modem, I decided to bring my computer up to date with all the other computers on the market. I have a small hard drive and a large collection of MP3s, so I decided to go with a CD burner, or rather a CD RW drive. I...

There are modems, and there are US Robotics Modems

Tue, 26 Sep 2000 00:55:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - The Background

A lot of people call US Robotics the Nike of computer modems. They're the biggest brand name out there, and they carry the highest price tags. The big difference between USR and Nike is that you're paying for more than...

Turn your Ex into a frog!!!!

Thu, 21 Sep 2000 20:58:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - To Ride a Silver Broom Stick. The title all in its own brings on the usual Halloween fantasies of a group of overweight green skinned women dressed in black with pointy hats and noses. Its an attention grabber, and stops there. My title was very...

This movie is anything but "FUBAR."

Tue, 5 Sep 2000 20:29:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Saving Private Ryan will soon be a classic. This movie sets you directly into the center of a World War II Soldier's mind. It lays out the tragedies and general morals of our wars in that era. It is said that when Saving Private Ryan was...

I can't feel my face! ::Drools on floor::

Mon, 4 Sep 2000 00:51:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - They're not kidding when they say MAXIMUM STRENGTH. This stuff comes is a very small plastic tube, and smells very strong of mint. I have an impacted wisdom tooth and the swollen gums to boot, so I went directly to the strongest stuff in the...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Its a 500lb Game in a 5lb box!!!

Oh the 80's. Aside from the tight pants and leather jackets, we had Arcade games! What kid didn't spend all his time and quarters, plastered to Mario Bros. or Donkey Kong in the corner of...

Beautiful style and sound!

Wed, 16 Aug 2000 00:52:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I started playing the guitar a little over a year ago. I was lucky to get a good deal on my Ibanez, since I didn't even know where to begin. I walked into our local music store, stood at the counter, and said, "I want to buy a guitar."...

There is no "Real Slim Shady."

Sun, 13 Aug 2000 23:06:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Would the real slim shady please stand up?

I doubt it. I wouldn't be the first person to say that Slim is one of the all time biggest posers. That's what sells him music. If you become a well known jerk, and you rap about anything...

Definatly NOT uplifting.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Here on Earth definitely scores a 9.8 on my Sob-O-Meter. This is definitely the saddest Chick Flick I've seen in a long time. I'm not one to complain about chick flicks, but I’m not much of a crier, so I let my girlfriend be the judge on this...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I just recently paid $52 for an AMD K6-2 3D Now 500 MHz processor. For those of you who don't know a whole lot about CPU's, $52 is a very good price for any modern processor. So far, I have had no trouble with this at all, and the upgrade what...

AOpen FM56 SM: This one is a solid "good."

Sun, 6 Aug 2000 20:35:48 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - A open FM56 SM. Now there is an awkward name. It sounds funny, but how does this bad boy perform? Well... It performs. To be fair, I really haven't run into much trouble with this modem.

The A open modems are produced by Rockwell (Which is...

Bad modem for a good name.

Fri, 4 Aug 2000 01:09:35 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I just have one question... WHY?! Why would an Awesome brand name jump onto the bandwagon and created a dirt cheap modem that works worse than the competitors.

Let me start off by explaining why I have such a lousy modem. I have...

Google: Don't forget the "

Wed, 2 Aug 2000 19:20:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I stumbled into google.com a few months ago after a guy I was talking to swore by it. I was skeptical. It sounded like one of those sickeningly cute little purple fuzzy creatures off of some new kids show. But my curiosity got to me. I clicked into...

::sniff sniff:: Is something burning? Oh... Its me...

Sun, 30 Jul 2000 21:05:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - I love camping, hiking, and especially swimming in the lakes/oceans anywhere I can. The only problem is I burn easier than a TV dinner. I have to wear that 40 SPF sun block and put it on every hour. I still manage to burn, and there is nothing worse...

Creative, good idea.

Tue, 18 Jul 2000 23:16:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Okay, The Sixth Sense seems to be like AOL. Either you love it, or you hate it. I'll be the first to stay in-between. It was good, not incredible, but certainly not bad.

The movie starts off by introducing the psychiatrist, and revealing...

ANARCHY!!!

Tue, 18 Jul 2000 20:59:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - If you haven't already seen Fight Club, rent it as soon as you get a chance. You won't be let down. Not only is this a great movie, but it really makes you think. There is lots of action, plenty of drama, and even a few side jokes. On to the...

"5 Million dollars to be divided by the survivors."

Sun, 16 Jul 2000 20:36:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - House on Haunted Hill is by far, the scariest movie I've seen in a long time. The effects keep you on the edge of your seat, and the plot is not nearly as predictable as that of its competitors (Scream, the haunting, etc.).

"Falling Away" from the Korn style

Mon, 10 Jul 2000 00:00:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - What's happening to Korn? When they first became popular, they were full of hate and resentment. They whaled on the bass and screamed. They were in your face, and they did it with their own style. Although the MTV world has not fully assimilated...

Childhood Treasure Hunt

Wed, 5 Jul 2000 00:18:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - What makes an excellent family movie? Action, adventure, treasure, a little magic, and a group of kids deeply involved in the fun. The Goonies has 110% of the above mentioned.

I watched this movie over and over again as a kid, and recently...

Burger who?

Tue, 4 Jul 2000 21:32:33 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - For some reason, Burger King seldom comes to mind when I'm hunting for a place to grab a quick bite to eat. As far as marketing goes, they don't exist. I hardly ever see Burger King commercials, and when I do, they aren't nearly as funny or creative as...
