Some missionaries lived long productive lives and some were killed quite young (in 1956) so it is probably not a good movie for small... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222571171460 Sun, 5 Mar 2006 15:53:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222571171460?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_218377064068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - From 11 to 18 January 2006, I rented a Dodge Magnum SE with a 2.7 liter 6 cylinder engine from Dollar Rent a Car in Phoenix, AZ. I drove the Magnum 1363 miles and averaged just under 25 miles per gallon using regular. Most of the driving was on... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~218377064068 Fri, 20 Jan 2006 17:59:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_218377064068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_214783004292?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - Wait a minute. What happened in this movie? If a person has no idea about how the big oil game is played, no concept of how the CIA insiders take care of their uncomfortable field personnel, and no idea of what it takes to turn a trusting believer into... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~214783004292 Wed, 21 Dec 2005 01:38:42 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_214783004292?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_171516661380?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - This little printer worked flawlessly for approximately 18 months. We put about one and a half boxes of printing paper through it, printing photos and documents. All the print jobs were completed quickly and with top quality results. The printer gave us... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~171516661380 Sat, 29 Jan 2005 01:14:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_171516661380?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_171512794756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - UPDATE CAUTION: After just two months of use, the Ethernet card in my machine went bad. I hope to be able to get it fixed at the local MicroCenter where I bought the PC but if not, I'll have to send it back to Gateway for repairs. I'm connected to the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~171512794756 Sat, 29 Jan 2005 00:08:07 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_171512794756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_139364961924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - Having just returned from what one of my colleagues jokingly but fairly accurately describes as Sopranostan - the land of lovable killers- I started reading Jason Elliot's book with a bit of nostalgia and prejudice. The prejudice against a tourist travel... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~139364961924 Fri, 28 Jan 2005 22:57:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_139364961924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_171507289732?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - Having read both good and bad reviews about Anchorman, I thought it could not be as bad as some reviewers claimed but I was wrong. It could hardly be worse. The highlight joke was probably about fuzzy feces shaped like a squirrel. This film was... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~171507289732 Fri, 28 Jan 2005 22:46:12 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_171507289732?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_137068449412?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - If you are old enough to remember when to use a FAX you were working with thermal imaging paper on tiny rolls, you may appreciate this machine. This is just a FAX, no scanner, no printer, no built in video display, etc. The machine has a copier function... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~137068449412 Sat, 17 Apr 2004 03:15:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_137068449412?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_137065107076?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - This is a good spot to stay in Phoenix if you want to be near the downtown area and don't want to spend much money. If you are driving and can provide your own kitchen ware and bedding it is very cheap. If you fly into Phoenix, you will probably want... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~137065107076 Sat, 17 Apr 2004 02:18:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_137065107076?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_89171988100?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - It took me a long time to decide to enter the digital photo age. I wanted a camera that would at least take photos of the same quality as my old Minox 35mm and possible approach the quality of my favorite 1949 Rolleiflex twin lens reflex. Its photos... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~89171988100 Thu, 6 Feb 2003 01:30:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_89171988100?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_55478423172?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - Most aspiring spy catchers spend their government careers doing mundane tasks and following dead-end leads. This book tells about the lucky few who were able to come face to face with the real spies and through persistence, hard work, and a bit of good... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~55478423172 Fri, 8 Feb 2002 21:07:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_55478423172?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/book-review-8EE-3202621C-3A592FFE-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bob2world - Jacques Barzun has been a favorite author of mine for many years. His name appears on many collections used as college texts but in this book he puts his own writing in a final (?) tour de force. Barzun examines in topical areas much of Western... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1343000196 Mon, 8 Jan 2001 00:35:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/book-review-8EE-3202621C-3A592FFE-prod2?linkin_id=8003929
