Food Network, cooking fun for the whole family

Fri, 19 Jan 2001 00:31:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - The Food Network is one of my favorite channels. There are a variety of shows that I tape, just to make sure I don’t miss them, they are so fun, informative, and well done that I really wish they were shown more often.

My absolute favorite...

This movie was an insult

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 18:41:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I saw Vertical Limit in the theater with my siblings on a night out. It being the compromise movie, I have to admit that I was not in the pro-Vertical Limit sect, so I would warn you to take my review with a grain of salt.

A magazine for anyone who enjoys cooking

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 18:37:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I like to think of myself as a cook, during my breaks from school I have always worked in restaurants and when I have at home I love to cook. I subscribe to one cooking magazine, Cook’s Illustrated, and it is everything a cook could want. It has a...

Maus tells a story you should not miss

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 04:01:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - Maus was the first graphic novel I ever read and the best way I can describe it is an experience. Don’t be fooled by the comic format, this is a serious book by a great author. I realize that is yet another Holocaust story, but if you haven’t been...

You need to read this book

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 03:46:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky -

Understanding Comics is one of those books that I think everyone should read, especially anyone who is an English Major, professor, or just has a condescending attitude about comic books. I’ve only been reading graphic novels (serious...

State and Main a funny, yet unusual movie

Thu, 18 Jan 2001 01:37:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I saw State and Main on the opening night because a) I wanted to take my girlfriend to a movie, and b) being from Vermont I was curious to see how they depicted it. Don't believe everything they say about Vermont though, we aren't quite that nice :-)...

An amazing book, especially when spoken

Mon, 21 Aug 2000 01:26:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I was first introduced to David Sedaris on This American Life (a Public Radio International show, that everyone should listen too because it is absolutely amazing). Since then I have heard him on NPR, and a few other places, and his writing is just...

This album is amazingly cool

Mon, 21 Aug 2000 01:15:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - Superfly, although I have never seen the movie, is known as a funky 70's movie about a black drug dealer. I bought the soundtrack after hearing a couple of songs off of it on the radio, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Most modern bands...

It was all right

Sat, 5 Feb 2000 16:52:13 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I might be slightly biased with this review, since I saw Tarzan (the Disney version) last night, so this man living with Gorillas is a little tired for me. But this is defiantly a different look at the situation.

I rented this movie because I was...

Will break your heart

Fri, 4 Feb 2000 17:05:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - Well, let me start off by saying this is my favorite book of all time. My favorite book by my favorite author. Graham Greene, for those of you who don’t know his work, also wrote The Power and the Glory, The Captain and the Enemy, The Third Man (made...

Amazing

Thu, 3 Feb 2000 16:45:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky -

What can I say about this movie? Well it can be summed up in one word: “wow”. The main character Barry Champlain, (Eric Bogosian, a great, great actor), is an egotistical talk radio host who, every night is barraged by a wide variety of calls...

Driest Campus my butt

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 01:55:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - First of all I love this school, it is pretty much my home, and I've met many, many people there who are just great. But recently I saw Wheaton rated as the second driest campus in the US, in some category. Though it pretty much bubcis, unless all...

A commentary to all of you who think, "britney is the best that ever was"

Wed, 12 Jan 2000 03:02:57 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - Now, I hate to go off on what people like, but this is insulting to anyone and everyone who has made good music, to call Britney Spears the greatest artist of all time.

I'm sorry, but have you noticed that all of her songs sound a like? I...

A lot of fun for a stupid name

Tue, 4 Jan 2000 03:38:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - I got this car for Christmas, I am 19, but I asked for a remote controlled car, and to my surprise my parents actually got me one. And what a car it is.

I was very impressed by this thing. It looks a little hokey with the...

A little bit of heaven on a winter afternoon

Fri, 31 Dec 1999 12:18:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Twinky - Well, I am not an expert on beer, and could not tell you what kind of stout this is, or anything other than this is one of the finest brews you will ever taste. The thick sweet, with just a touch of bitterness, taste slides down your throat and fills...
