History then Mystery

Fri, 27 Jul 2001 19:15:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I love this book. I have been reading it in my spare time and I can't say enough good things about it.

The book starts off by giving a long history of the quantum. The history sort of jumps around a bit temporally, but it's organized well...

Periscope Eyes and Great Thighs

Thu, 25 May 2000 04:12:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - This movie has three great things going for it and it has two bad things working against it. Since I'm an optimist I'll start with the three great things.

Great Thing #1:

Cameron Diaz.. Even though Cameron Diaz plays a wild and eccentric...

Sacred Cows have sacred grommets. But the meat sucks.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - Why anyone would want to buy this album is beyond me. Why I bought this album is beyond me and all the lengths that I'm capable of. I have only heard one of their songs on the radio. "I want to thank you" is the title of that one song. The...

FREE MONKEYS!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - Already I know that you're interested. You're tired of going to BofA, paying money to speak to a teller, paying money every month to "maintain" your account, and here's the kicker, being scared that I might cancel your check card.

CD's from scratch

Thu, 18 May 2000 19:35:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - No, don't scratch your CD's, you misunderstood. With Adaptec's Easy CD creator 4, you can create any kind of CD from scratch that you wish. You can make an Audio CD from .wav files or you can make a data cd consisting of any number of files up to the...

What are all these holes for?

Thu, 18 May 2000 16:10:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I love my sound blaster live x-gamer. I just have one problem with it. I never know which hole accepts which plug. The labels for my card are imprinted on the shield plate. They're the same color as the shield plate, just inset a little bit. So when I'm...

Abit BX6: Motherboards hurt your butt when you sit on them.

Thu, 18 May 2000 15:21:06 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - This is one mother I don't mind getting a spanking from. I personally own this motherboard and if your into building your own system it's a great base for your super system.

The board setup is easy and self explanatory. When you enter the...

Tiajuana Officials don't take Discover for bribes

Sat, 6 May 2000 04:26:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - Discover may very well be the greatest credit card on the face of the planet. With exception to of course my personal credit card (made of love) from good ole mom and pop. You know that credit card that says, "Son when you get in a bind, even if...

Do you really need 2000 limp spoons?

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 16:43:49 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - Although windows 2000 is the next editions of windows it isn't for the general user. Windows 2000 was designed with the goal of safely networking and managing computers while proving a stable window based operating system. This does mean that windows...

I knew a guy who broke a toilet by standing on it once.

Mon, 27 Mar 2000 05:08:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I can't believe how absolutely hilarious this movie was. I wasn't expecting the amount of hilarity that I saw.

The basic storyline goes as such. Four members of a garage band dubbed 'Mystery' are set on going to a KISS concert in detroit. But...

Beurocratic, bogus or both?

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 06:38:41 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I don't know how any company can afford to run business the way that covad communications runs theirs. Now I understand that covad communications is subcontracted by other major dsl providers to install and maintain some dsl networks but that doesn't...

LeechFTP: I can't believe it's free

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 05:17:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I have used a plethora of ftp clients. Cute, WSftp, warclient and many others. LeechFTP is the best bar none. It is the only ftp client that will automatically keep you from being kicked off of an ftp server by timing out. It sends a special command...

If only I could afford to smash it to pieces.

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 04:53:28 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I hate this thing. Not only is it slow, hard to insert a cartridge and incredibly difficult to get to work, but nobody has them. Ok it was a good idea to go with a higher amount of storage, 1 gig is a good amount for just about anything, but the access...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: I have been assimilated

Fri, 10 Mar 2000 04:33:12 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I've never used a joystick before I bought this one. I bought it mainly because it looked neat and it had so many controls that I couldn't resist.

Let me tell you the good about this joystick. It has everything - this version of the cyborg...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: My Ears, My Bloody Ears!

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 04:32:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - Never, ever before could I have imagined that anything so small could ever sound so great. These little twenty watt wonders are so incredibly powerful that I cannot have them set to full volume without making my neighbors ears bleed.

Not only...

One Button Mouth Joy

Tue, 7 Mar 2000 04:18:18 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - The electric toothbrush is the epitome of laziness. If you're really looking into getting an electric toothbrush you should use your money on something that you actually need. Like a life cycle, or a set of ten pound weights.

I can see the...

A great reason not to do homework

Tue, 22 Feb 2000 01:21:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - If you loved Banjo Kazooie. If you couldn't peel yourself away from Mario64. If you have a strange urge to collect colored bananas. If you have any type of serious work to get done. This game is for you.

I started playing this game about a...

Tue, 22 Feb 2000 01:01:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - This drill, whew. I was and still am amazed at the power of this drill. The responsiveness of the trigger is truly amazing. It's variable speed mechanism has the best trigger system I've ever felt. The chuck and key fit seamlessly providing a good solid...

Sony SAT-A4 Digital Satellite System: All this and it's cheaper than cable?

Sat, 5 Feb 2000 05:36:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - I can't believe how great this is. I just bought the SAT A4 system and installed it with the basic cable replacement package. I can't believe that I get digital picture, digital sound - AC3 encoded when available - vcr synch options, an !!Easy to use...

I don't even own 300 CDs

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 07:48:59 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - This CD player is great. I'm only 20 and I have 75 CDs. I was proud of the size of my collection. It almost filled up my album. That is until my parents bought me the most belittling present I've ever gotten. I put all of my CDs in this player and it...

Hanson: Furniture levelers, those hanson boys

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 07:38:28 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - While visiting my new apartment my sister had pronounced her distaste for hanson after buying a couple of their CDs in a blind drunken rage and she wanted to find something creative to do with the CDs she had purchased. She didn't want her hard earned...

Hot nurses and naked men.

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 07:30:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aslansford - This disc is great if you love listening to Blink. They've gone and released another smash album. A far cry from the bland boring boy band of the teenybopper era. Blink puts out a loud, high energy sound with a great schtick for lyrical genius. As a...
