Microsoft FrontPage 2000: Finally made the switch

Wed, 26 Apr 2000 19:01:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author alex_aaron - I've had my own home page for about 4 year at GeoCities, and in that time I've used 3 HTML editors. The first was Netscape Gold 2.0, this started me on my way to being a "web weenie". It allowed me to graphically place items, and view the HTML...

A real "Tear Jerker"

Sun, 23 Apr 2000 18:46:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author alex_aaron - This is one movie that really pulls at your emotion. The first time that I watched this film, was with my girlfriend (now my wife). Though I'm not a big fan of Anime I thought I'd watch the movie. It was a "bootleg" Japanese language version of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author alex_aaron - The DX-10 I'm using was given as a birthday (4/99) gift to my dad. He used it about once a week to take pictures of a variety of subjects. I asked to borrow it about 2 months (2/00) to take some photos for my brother-in-laws web page. Since that time...

Driving in Taiwan

Mon, 29 Nov 1999 14:07:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author alex_aaron - I will start this off by saying driving (either driver or passenger) in Taiwan is not for the faint of heart. If you don't hear parts crunching then everything is OK. The mentality is that everyone is driving a scooter, whether it's a scooter, car, truck...

EVA Air Deluxe Economy Class

Sun, 28 Nov 1999 20:32:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author alex_aaron - I've flown EVA Air 4 times (2 round trips LAX-TPE) in the Deluxe Economy Class and have been very happy. The seating is wider with a bit more legroom. The seat back video screens are nice to watch the in flight movies and to keep track of your flight...
