The Bone People

Wed, 24 Apr 2002 16:06:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - The Bone People was assigned as part of a non-western lit class I took last semester. I hadn't really read much non-western literature so it was an entertaining introduction.

A brief summary of the plot is as follows:

Would YOU marry John Cusack? If not, you may be alone.

Fri, 12 Oct 2001 15:20:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - What? John Cusack do a movie NOT set in Chicago? Bizarre, I know. Even more bizarre was how much I liked this movie, despite its "romantic comedy" label, which can defnitely be a big cinematic stumbling block.

Basically, Serendipity is...

Before ZE GERMANS get here?

Wed, 22 Aug 2001 22:53:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - Where to begin. Where, indeed.

I've never seen Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. Since I loved Snatch so much, I've been told -repeatedly- that it is necessary for me to see Guy Ritchie's previous film but I haven't. The only negative...

I'm sorry, Charlton Heston. I'm so very sorry.

Wed, 22 Aug 2001 22:22:51 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I loved the original Planet of the Apes movies; my friends and I had a sort of obsession with them, really. I bought action figures from Planet of the Apes when I worked at a toy store, and just because they've gone gay on me and fallen in love (Dr...

Anthony Hopkins, you rock.

Wed, 14 Mar 2001 17:46:51 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I, like most Americans, was avidly awaiting the release of Hannibal. I read the book, which was very satisfying, etc, and I loved Silence of the Lambs. I love Anthony Hopkins. I loved Anthony Hopkins IN Silence of the Lambs. In fact I don't think you...

Compact and easy

Wed, 14 Mar 2001 17:13:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - As anyone who has read my previous epinions or knows me personally is aware, I am technologically backward, or at least slow, at least for my age group and circle of friends. "Aww, Theresa's trying to use her Gameboy...".

I don't even really like...

Quite an upgrade

Mon, 19 Feb 2001 21:34:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - Let me begin by saying this is my third attempt at owning a cell phone. I like the idea of cell phones as added accessibility, contrary to the fact that I hate the idea of cell phones as a status symbol. Working in an electronics store that sells these...

I don't listen to rap

Wed, 7 Feb 2001 13:52:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I really do not have much exposure to rap music. None of my friends listen to rap (with a few exceptions), I don't have any cultural pressure to listen to rap music (I'm white and suburban) and I don't even live in an area where much rap is played on...

Modern classical music that doesn't disappoint.

Mon, 29 Jan 2001 14:20:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I first heard Glassworks in a 1984 Volkswagen Fox, which for a lot of reasons, (including this one) has become my favorite kind of car. My friend came to pick me up at work so we could eat dinner together, and on the trip from the parking lot of Best...

And the Award goes to...Helen Hunt's Forehead

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 20:12:47 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - "Cast Away" appealed to me for a few reasons. One, I like Tom Hanks's movies in general and expected at least a likeable character from him, even though I heard the writing wasn't spectacular. Second, Tom Hanks looks like my dad and therefore, I feel...

Mighty Blue Justice

Wed, 13 Dec 2000 12:23:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - Well, it's come down to this. I have to see Tick episodes on RENTED VIDEO TAPES. Can you believe this? Personally I don't know what happened to the tape I had with just about every episode of the Tick ever aired, but what can you do.

So...

Bring it on.

Fri, 8 Dec 2000 15:45:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - If anyone here has read my other reviews, or knows me personally, you probably clicked on this opinion accidentally, because it's likely you're sick of hearing about Tetris.

I, on the other hand, am not sick of hearing about Tetris, and will...

Even a dumb-ass like me can use it.

Fri, 1 Dec 2000 14:58:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I am considered blessed, because I have at my fingertips the greatest discount known to man: I work at Best Buy. Do not be fooled. Despite my employer, I do not know anything about televisions, (or for that matter electronics in general).

Hollow Man?? Hollow WRITING.

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 17:12:46 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - What I thought was least interesting about Hollow Man is that it was, like a lot of movies, your basic rip-off. Some flicks can pull it off and do mildly entertaining things with the storyline in a modern setting, or whatever it is they are aiming for,...

Not for me-a

Fri, 20 Oct 2000 13:54:27 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I work at an electronics store. Through our store, we are able to receive discounts on cellular equipment, and the accompanying service. The discount on Primeco equipment is the best deal out of any; out of all the available phones, the Nokia 6185...

Anal Assault by National City

Thu, 19 Oct 2000 18:16:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - You know, I should have understood the way National City operated on the first day I signed up for a checking account. I should have known that my anus would never feel quite as violated by a financial institution as they made it feel over the course of...

Pieces of Flare

Fri, 8 Sep 2000 15:39:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I frequent TGI Fridays often enough to say I frequent it. Usually I order a plat of potato skins, if we're just there after work or something, and if it's a dinner thing, well, typically I order the same thing, which I can't even remember. At any rate...

Crazy Dipsy Does it Again

Fri, 8 Sep 2000 14:16:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - To start off with, let me assure you I am an authority on the Talking Teletubbies. I'm no random consumer, familiar with our multi-coloured friends only through hearing of them on the news. ("Faggut, faggut, bite my buuuuuuutt") No sir...

Hardcore and Turquoise

Wed, 6 Sep 2000 14:48:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I first saw an ad displaying my phone almost exactly one year ago. Target,or somewhere similar, had it in this flowery arrangement with three other phones of the same kind, all different colors.

Sad to say, my first impression wasn't...

Southwest Airlines and Captain Kirk

Wed, 6 Sep 2000 14:10:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - More often than not I fly Southwest. That is largely due to the fact that I am a cheap ass-hole and I don't care about putting my arm in someone else's ribcage.

I love Southwest because I think it is the most honest of all the airlines. I...

Nintendo vs Playstation: especially for parents

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 17:34:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I am 20 years old, and consequently two things qualify me to write this evaluation:

1. I am not old/experienced enough to get a real job

2. I play a good deal of video games myself

Now, the reason not being old enough...

Hershey Park vs Six Flags Great America

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 16:34:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - I live in pretty close proximity to one of America's largest, or at least most often visited, theme parks: Six Flags Great America.

I have never been to another Six Flags Amusement Park, and until recently I had never been to another amusement...

So glad it's free

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 15:53:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - Some of my friends and I have a philosophy on free things: if it's free, take it. Now of course there are few exceptions, but The Onion is not one of them. Nothing makes me as happy as the fact that if you live anywhere close to Wisconsin (i.e...

I can't believe you would want to go here

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 14:04:07 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning -

Just based on the fact that you have begun reading this review, you disappoint me. How could anyone conceivably think to themselves, "I think I'll go to Detroit, Michigan." for any reason?

Let me begin by recounting...

Good old Fashioned Gag Reflex

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 13:41:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author TMWerning - Mothers have a habit of using one remedy to cure every physical ailment under the sun. With one of my friends' moms, it's aloe vera:

"What? You have a sunburn? Here, have some aloe vera lotion."

"What? Your skin's...
