Pretty but a waste of money

Thu, 4 Jan 2007 00:43:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I bought these from OfficeDepot.com purely because I was already placing an order and didn't want to pay for shipping elsewhere (and couldn't get all I wanted for cheaper elsewhere). It was advertised as a package of 8 and cost $5.79. Unfortunately...

Great diving ...if you like wrecks, check out the Antilles wreck

Tue, 26 Jun 2001 02:08:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - The Antille's wreck is from WWII. It is located about 15 minutes from the island by boat, so it is a very convenient for a short day trip. (If you are staying on the island.)

The wreck is located on the NE part of the island (I think). It is...

A little extra money will make your tank that much more beautiful

Mon, 25 Jun 2001 02:23:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - This tank was my absolute favorite when I worked at PETCO. We had it set up on the floor as a salt water display tank - with a variety of fishes in it. Most of the fish were small to medium sized - but that is only because we got they sold so quickly...

Great Cruise - but not worthy of Carnival Name

Thu, 21 Jun 2001 00:50:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I've been on 2 other Carnival cruises - and loved them both. This one however, was not on the same level as the others. The main reason is the food - the buffets were just normal meals. They did not have the typical grandness associated with them...

It may be cheap but it doesn't last...(Epson 400)

Wed, 11 Apr 2001 19:58:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I have owned my Epson 400 printer for almost 4 years now. I purchased it with my Compaq for college the summer before my freshman year (I think I paid $230 for it). Now, in my senior year, my printer is on the verge of being nothing more than JUNK...

Great skis for a beginner skier (or a bad one)

Sun, 10 Dec 2000 01:21:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I bought these skis last year (November 1999) and used them several times - both at Killington and in the Poconos.

<bold>The skis</bold>

They are size 160 and cost me about $135. (I got them before the ski season started -...

No thinking necessary - just set and watch

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 02:43:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - This heater is well worth the money. The $28 I spent is well worth the money. All I had to do was set the the knob at the top of the heater at the correct temperature, place it in the tank (suction cupped to the wall) and watch it do its thing!
...

If you like your fish then don't buy this heater....

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 02:22:25 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - Of all of the heaters I have ever used, this one was the absolute worst. Not only did it not keep a constant temperature, it also "blew up" inside of my fish tank.

I bought this heater for my 10 gallon tropical fish tank. I...

Archived Computer Hardware Reviews: Smart One 56K PC Card Data/Fax Modem

Thu, 20 Apr 2000 02:39:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - This modem is fairly reliable and has some cellular capability for a very reasonable price.

I bought this modem in June 1999 and paid about $80 for it. I was essentially looking for a 56K v.90 modem with cellular capabilities. When I found...

Solid camera for a reasonable price

Thu, 13 Apr 2000 02:37:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I have owned this camera since December of 1996 and have no major complaints. Over the 4 years I have owned it the overall quality has remained pretty much the same.

My pentax camera was given to me as a gift so I am not sure exactly how much...

Netsetter.com: Not worth the faster speed!

Wed, 5 Apr 2000 02:41:41 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I recently joined Netsetter.com in hopes of loading web pages at a faster rate. They claimed that by routing the requests through Netsetter's servers that the overall speed would increase. I figured it was worth a shot because it was FREE and it...

Too many islands in too little time

Tue, 21 Mar 2000 14:55:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - On March 11th I took my second Carnival Cruise. Overall it was just as fun as the first, but the itinerary on this cruise ship was a bit too much. Don't get me wrong, the islands were all beautiful - green and great beaches - but there was a port of...

Sailor Moon good influence on young females

Sat, 4 Mar 2000 04:47:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - Sailor Moon is one of the few female role models out there. With most of the cartoon heroes being male, Sailor Moon gives females a chance to shine and show their strength.

This great Japanese animation cartoon is about a young 14 year old...

Sat, 4 Mar 2000 04:05:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - With 200 trails, Killington offers a wide variety of trails. They have everything from green to double black diamonds - and even hail the trail with the biggest moguls on the East Coast - the Outer Limits. There are 7 mountains total, with 3 being more...

It keeps getting better and better

Wed, 16 Feb 2000 02:12:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I do not ever remember liking Rowan, however more recently things have been getting better. The school has received many financial gifts that have continually added to the school. New to the school are the university status, the engineering program, a...

A great place for a family vacation

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 04:59:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - Hershey is truly a family oriented town. The town has all the things associated with a major city - museums, a zoo, a theme park, shopping, stadium/arena - with a non-city setting.

I've been going to Hershey since I was about 8years old, and...

Cedar Point Amusement Park a MUST for rollercoaster lovers!

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 04:34:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - For those rollercoaster lovers out there, a visit to this place is a must. With over a dozen rollercoasters (I think they have 13 now - always building more) this place is heaven for diehard fans like myself.

Honestly, I haven't been there for a...

Beautiful islands and worthwhile cruise

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 03:49:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - This cruise is ranked #1 for favorite vacations. Not only did I get to meet a lot of new friends, but I also had the chance to see numerous archaeological sites. Included were the excavations at Santorini and the ruins at Ephesus, Turkey. At each...

Fun Times to be had on this cruise ship

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 03:20:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I found Carnival to be a fun ship that's full of energy! The employees are helpful, the cabins are a good size, and there is plenty to do. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a fun time. However, if you are looking for a relaxing cruise with few...

Gateway Solo 5150: Stay away from Gateway Notebooks!

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 02:32:58 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bowbiter - I would NOT RECOMMEND anyone to buy a gateway notebook (desktops are ok though - I have one and never had any problems - which is why I bought a Gateway notebook). From what I have now heard (after I bought it), Gateway is notorious for having problems...
