Best Battery Boasts Beautiful Brilliance!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - The Nikon L4: small, compact, medium-quality digital camera. Nature's killer. One of these creatures can devour up to 16 double-A North American Energizers per day. The L4 has been observed by Camerologists for years, and the experts agree: your...

Funny looking, great sounding horseshoe.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - I was in the market for a horseshoe-shaped pair of headphones, as the pre-market ones that came with my MP3 player were total tuckus in the sound department. It takes a strong man to admit that he prefers bizarre headphones in this day and age where...

NetGear FVS318 (FVS318NA) Firewall: A tough but tasty nut to crack.

Wed, 8 Dec 2004 15:56:52 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - As an IT professional, I have to come up with interesting new configurations for clients day in, day out. One client of mine is an MRI doctor who wished to be able to view his MRI images on his home PC. Due to the nature of the data, an encrypted VPN...

An Eyre-born, frolicking read.

Tue, 8 Jun 2004 20:16:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Being a published writer means I've become one heck of a snooty old goat when it comes to reading for pleasure. I no longer have any ability to turn a blind eye to the technical gaffes of other authors - I had to rewrite my novel no less than five...

What an utter POS

Sun, 20 Apr 2003 23:23:40 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - If there's one thing I dislike more than a bad piece of electronics, it's a piece of hardware that works beautifully for a little while, then breaks in a way that makes it less than usable.

Case in point would be my Vivitar 3315.

Baby goes down for the count.

Mon, 2 Jul 2001 14:54:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - As a recent father of a baby girl, I was thrust face-first into the wonder and magic of being a father.

One of the wonderous things that any new parent disovers is that they no longer get to sleep for very long. That's "get", not "need"...

Who are you?

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 16:52:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - This one took me by surprise. I should warn you now that this review will, as always, have spoilers. I will still try to keep it as low as possible on the Give Away Plot scale.

But you need to see this movie.

Imagine, if you will,...

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 16:35:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Having heard this group via one or two songs on the local radio, I decided to snag this album. I was looking for something high-energy to try while repainting the impending infant's crib, and this looked like a good one.

When I buy a good CD,...

Anime of a finer scope.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - I saw this movie for sale at a local store, and almost picked it up. Then I decided to rent it first, thanks to Blockbuster.

I will be buying it.

It should be noted that I am not the MOST hardcore anime nut out there, but I have...

Tear Out My Eyes Or I'll Do It Myself

Wed, 20 Dec 2000 21:24:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - If you read my Heavy Metal 2K review, you know that I am without mercy when it comes to reviewing bad movies.

Prepare to understand the brunt of my wrath when it is set to "frappe".

My wife and I, two gamers, decided to...

Moogles II - Fuzzy Wings Of Heck

Wed, 20 Dec 2000 20:24:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - You know, I wish I could write an Epinion about this that differed from the glowing praise of all the other reviews of this game on here. I wish I could be different this time, and state the different things about this game that I hate.

But I...

Sat, 16 Dec 2000 22:49:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Mkay. So we moved to Boulder, and I was trying to figure out where to go skiing. However, working with a full time job, a wife who is taking 16 hours of classes, and very little fundage due to moving bills, I was left with no resources to plan my first...

I'm going to wash my brain now.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - I only recently read this book, along with another by Poppy. After meeting her in person in July, I decided it would be a good idea to get to know her body of work.

Drawing Blood is very well written. Exceedingly so. It reminds me almost of...

HM put their tag on THIS cr@p????

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 22:26:54 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - I just watched this last night. I saw this at the store, picked it up, paid good money for the rental, and took it home under the impression that I was about to view a modern feast of eye candy, not unlike the previous HM movie.

I feel...

Best of the Batch.

Sat, 2 Sep 2000 19:28:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - It can never be said that KMFDM has put out a small amount of albums. Ever since Blow Your Top hit, they put out record after record, year after year, until the crew disbanded last year. Anyone who discovers this band will have a LOT of catching up to...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Stop the presses! Release the hounds! Pepper the mints!

THIS IS ONE OUTRAGEOUSLY BADA$$ GAME!

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Having just moved to Colorado, we decided to completely trash our old litter boxes, and pick some up once we got here. However, just to save ourselves some hassle, I happened to notice this flimsy piece of plastic in the pet aisle.

I took it...

On your case and in your face.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - This album was one of my faves from my late High School years, and I just found it again in my old tape collection.

I think I'll pick it up on CD this weekend. It's still one of the best albums I have.

Just plain fun...

Marvel? Eh.....

Tue, 18 Jul 2000 20:38:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Like many of you, I was, in my teens, an X-Men fan.

And, like most of you, Wolverine was my favorite.

With this being a prerequisite, the movie was just plain spiffy.

Like many a Comic Book Film, this one has its major...

Power Pop Punk at its Best

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 21:46:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - Having grown up at a Ski resort for a great deal of my life, I was used to hearing Snowboard bands. Some of them caught my ears- Pennywise, Butthole Surfers- while others just made me say "eh" and walk away -Porno for Pyros.

I first...

Like a strange Metal Buffet lunch...

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 18:14:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - I saw this album a few years ago, and bought it without giving a preliminary listen. And it's a strange one, indeed.

I like compilation CDs, and Tribute albums are usually fairly good, or suck like a hoover. A tribute to Sabbath? How can...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author deadcoil - There is no doubt in any good Metal Lover's mind anymore. There is no other option.
