CDNOW Online Store: CDNow: Big and Broad but Shallow

Sat, 22 Sep 2001 02:00:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - My music collection is fairly eclectic. I'm prone to moving from main stream hip-hop, the likes of A Tribe Called Quest or Wyclef Jean, directly into punk/emo influenced music, bands like Q and Not U or The Stereo, then melodically flow into the...

A beautiful interlude

Fri, 23 Mar 2001 04:15:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I was originally turned onto The Stereo because I was a fan of Animal Chin (Jamie Woolford's original band) and upon their breakup I still paid attention to where Jamie landed with his next musical venture. The Stereo just happened to be that landing...

It Blows...Well

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 02:22:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I really enjoy the snow...from a distance. I really enjoy looking outside at a beautiful snow covered yard, but I hate it when the driveway is covered in snow. So to remedy that, I used to employ illegal immigrant labor to shovel off my driveway. The...

When making a call, dial 9 to reach an outside line

Tue, 9 Jan 2001 13:38:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I have been disappointed in the past with cordless phones. They are terribly fickle items. Sometimes they will fail to attain a dial tone, sometimes they'll freak out and start beeping at you...I just want to answer the phone. In the past I've been...

A Best Western Plus Casino

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 14:47:05 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I was momentarily taken by the Excalibur’s outer facade. The castle with beautiful colors and the nighttime dragon show makes the hotel a decent attraction worth visiting Las Vegas. However, once inside the hotel you quickly realize that the term luxury...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - As a child I loved playing monopoly with my family. As a person on the brink of becoming an adult...I love the prospect of buying property for 200 dollars. Monopoly is a great game that encourages human bonding. It is very rare that you can attain a...

Wed, 3 Jan 2001 14:43:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Cook's Essentials Silver Stone surface must be one of the greatest inventions of all times. I recently received a set of their cookware as a gift from my mother. She's been using the same Cook's Essentials for year or two now and has been more than...

Tastes like burning

Thu, 6 Jul 2000 01:17:47 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I'm not a big fan of anything that could cause my intestines to go up in flames and I am pretty sure that Bacardi 151 could do that. My first experience with 151 was watching a friend use it to light a lawn jockey on fire, it made for a great picture...

The loved enigma

Fri, 30 Jun 2000 12:05:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - The Saucony GRID Swerve has an enigmatic character to it. Retailers fail to be consistent in describing what type of shoe it is; neutral, supponation, pronation, high mileage, moderate mileage. No one can agree. The manufacturer describes it as a...

It's A Trip

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 01:26:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - As a collegiate athlete I have experienced many new things. Physically I've been put through hell and mentally I've been exhausted by not only my own pressure to perform in races but also in academics. I've seen some of the worst in politically...

Lives Down the Stereotypes

Thu, 30 Mar 2000 20:54:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Being from the northern part of the country originally I've always gotten the impression of nothing but hicks, farms, pigs and incest for the state of Arkansas. Fayetteville lives down all of these stereotypes. It's is a very lively town with beautiful...

Take Route 66 Right On Past

Tue, 28 Mar 2000 13:52:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Historic Route 66 will take you past many interesting places, Oklahoma City is not one of those interesting places. If you'd like, you could stop and get a big slab of beef or pay homage to those that suffered in the Federal Building bombing. Other...

Wed, 8 Mar 2000 16:14:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - My first trip to Mackinac Island (as I must say my only trip), was wonderful. I took a school sponsored weekend to the island and was struck by it's beauty and it's overall feeling of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Have you ever wondered if you could find one of those old Voltron lunch boxes you had in grade school? Ever had the craving for a first edition autographed version of "Slaughter House Five"? Would you like to get rid of your old high school...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Daily Bread has been around longer than any other inline skating magazine that covers the dynamic world of the "aggressive inline skater", "rollerbooter", "rollerblader", "skater", or any other name you'd like to...

Grand Conclusion.....Nothing

Mon, 7 Feb 2000 00:03:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - So you listen to punk rock. So you're a jerk to everyone you meet. So you use safety pins to adhere the names of bands to your black hooded zip up sweatshirt. You are not a punk. You are a poseur...but it's okay because SLC Punk is more concerned...

Over a year and still my favorite

Sat, 5 Feb 2000 15:44:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I was late to start playing Age of Empires, the first time I saw the game was in 1997 and I wanted to get it. However, my home computer was not powerful enough to run the game (it requires a 90 MHz processor). Then I got my own computer and I knew that...

Fri, 4 Feb 2000 14:47:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Roller Coaster Tycoon is a game that I played for about 6-7 hours straight when I first got it. I loved it, was enthralled by it. Then the idea of building and managing a park lost its appeal and I pretty much stopped playing, except to make my own...

Why don't I like this game????

Fri, 4 Feb 2000 14:29:24 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I for some unknown reason hate Starcraft. I can't exactly figure out why. I love Age of Empires and the Rise of Rome Expansion and I also really like Total Annihilation. Why then do I not like Star Craft...a game that is in most senses the same darn...

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 23:16:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - One of the things that brought me to a school 1,000 miles from my home was the excitement of the faculty and administration about the growth of this school. President Boren, a former Congressman, has been a great influence on this academic community...

I've only tested it...Many swear by it

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 05:51:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I sincerely wanted to log miles upon miles on a pair of Saucony Grid Hurricane's, many of the people I run with (the men and women of the OU distance squad) are semi-religious about this shoe and I wanted to try it. My problem is that I am flat footed...

Almost A Steal

Tue, 25 Jan 2000 20:52:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - My Sony MDR-CD60 headphones constitute one of the best 20 dollars I've ever spent. It was almost a passing thought, I lucked into this great deal.

It's Time to Study...

Tue, 25 Jan 2000 14:13:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - I use this CD when I do homework. It is unobtrusive and allows you to think without being constantly blown away be screaming, heavy beats or fast lyrics. All of those attributes make it difficult for me to study. This CD is always spinning in my CD...

Tue, 25 Jan 2000 13:32:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author PhishBrane - Logitech makes great mice and trackballs. Everyone I know that uses them is very satisfied if not outright preachy about their experience with their particular product of Logitech.

I have had the MouseMan Wheel for over a year now and I love...
