Microsoft MS Wheel Mouse 1.0 (062-00140) Mouse: great little mouser

Sat, 15 Jun 2002 03:16:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I'm sure there are amazing, high-tech mice out there with laser red lights on the bottom and cushy soft areas for one's hand to rest on and designed to the ergonomically perfect extreme; but for me, this Microsoft wheel mouse is just fine! It's more than...

informative book, fun to flip through

Tue, 27 Mar 2001 01:12:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This book immediately earns a high rating, first of all just for BEING a book about DeSotos (and Plymouth) cars. Such a thing is not easy to find! Secondly, it's an overall good, helpful, well-written and well-illustrated book!

The title of...

PATHETIC compared to book and '56 film

Tue, 26 Dec 2000 01:45:20 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - In itself, this is a perfectly good movie but compared to what it was SUPPOSED to be this movie is a TERRIBLE excuse for a film! If I hadn't seen the 1956 version, then I might let this go and believe that it was the best rendition possible of such a...

true to the original story? YES - it's almost perfect!

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 04:44:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - ~WOW~ I was amazed... This movie actually won my picky approval. Usually all I do is complain endlessly that movies just butcher the story from what the author meant it to be, but this one is different. You can totally tell that the producers tried...

SNZ swing rules!

Sat, 4 Nov 2000 23:43:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I bought Perennial Favorites on the basis of one song, and since then I've been launched into an insatiable craving for more and more Squirrel-Nut-Zippers-style swing music! I've since bought even more of their music and I'm never let down. This...

Thehungersite.com: painless way to ease others' pain

Fri, 6 Oct 2000 23:02:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This website is totally free, and all you have to do is click a button and ~voila~! - you've donated food to starving people. It takes two seconds to do, and you don't have to read anything or do anything and buy anything and even LOOK at anything at the...

creepy, makes u think

Sun, 10 Sep 2000 15:51:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - The Crucible by Arthur Miller is a really creepy look into what was actually BEHIND all the witchcraft accusations in the Salem Witch trials. It really changed my view of that historical event. I never knew so many hidden psychological motives were...

entertaining, but not fantastic

Mon, 7 Aug 2000 22:22:58 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - Even if a movie has it's share of "problems" (it totally clashed with itself!) it usually DOES manage to keep me entertained SOMEWHAT.... I think it's hard to make a BAD movie, most are okay at least, and that's where this movie falls in -

Beer: strange

Mon, 3 Jul 2000 03:30:10 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - Like most commercials nowadays, this one hardly tells you ANYTHING about the product. All it is is this little text thing at the end. It brings to mind those Nike commercials where you watch the entire thing having no idea what's it about, then...

great (for certain things)

Mon, 3 Jul 2000 02:54:53 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This shovel is strange. It can't decide if it wants to be a snow shovel or a regular old dirt shovel. It's shaped like a dirt shovel, but with grooves. It says it can used for snow, but I find it's best purpose to be picking up dog poop.

a stupid idea

Sun, 2 Jul 2000 16:47:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - The "Grapefruit Diet"??? Give me a break!! Why are americans so darned LAZY nowadays, looking for miracle cures for everything... No one wants to face the simple truth that if you eat well balanced meals, take everything in moderation, and get...

if you like cars...

Fri, 30 Jun 2000 23:57:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This is a MUST SEE for the car-crazy! It's a great action movie, with wonderful special effects and chase scenes. One thing I will come right out and admit though is that it IS an action movie - nothing more, nothing less. If you accept that, you'll be...

just the EXPERIENCE...

Fri, 30 Jun 2000 17:38:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I could write endlessly and never do this movie justice. It's quite possibly the best film I've ever seen, and I can't get over what I went through while watching it. This review, therefore, will focus entirely on the EXPERIENCE the viewer is put...

ew spinoff

Thu, 29 Jun 2000 20:42:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - Let me just say that I have an automatic hatred towards anything that's a spin-off. It's just the way I am. I think it's demeaning to the original movie or show. I also hate remakes of old movies (can't they think of their own ideas??? Jeez!) and things...

an excellent book

Tue, 27 Jun 2000 15:11:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I was hooked the first time I saw the movie based on this book. I was very little, about six years old. I made my mom take me to the bookstore the next day so she could buy me the book, which I read in four days. It was one of the most interesting and...

a timeless, great movie!

Thu, 22 Jun 2000 01:06:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I'm not going to talk about academy awards and things like that, because I'll admit I don't even have a clue. I wasn't born yet when this movie came out, and I only know a few of the actors in it. I'm eighteen years old and saw it for the first time a...

a really bad author

Thu, 22 Jun 2000 00:44:59 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - How could these books possibly have been such a craze? They're terrible! I'm sorry, but R. L. Stine has a long way to go before he becomes a GOOD author. I know I'm older now and looking back at these books written for fifth graders (they were quite the...

great story

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 13:13:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - a Merchant of Venice loans a "friend" several thousand dollars... and if the friend can't pay up, he owes a pound (of his own!) flesh! This story starts out interesting and just keeps getting better. If anyone says Shakespeare is boring,...

Yahoo! Messenger: voice chat rules!

Sun, 14 May 2000 13:18:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - Yahoo (voice) chat is the greatest (FREE!!!) way to keep in touch that's available on the web. It's so easy to go to their website, download the program, register and voila - you can type or TALK to your friends in real-time chatting.

yummy subs

Wed, 10 May 2000 01:35:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I can't believe I went almost my whole life so far having NEVER tried a sub... Then, one day I finally tried one and was so impressed by the taste, I've been addicted ever since. Our high school has a deal with them, so every wednesday you can buy subs...

down with mcdonalds!

Sat, 6 May 2000 22:24:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - It was always the same thing in my house - Burger King versus McDonalds, and I finally decided that Burger King wins out big time! For one thing, their chicken is a million times tastier. I'm talking about their chicken fingers vs McDonald's chicken...

intriguing book!

Sat, 6 May 2000 16:34:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This stunningly different, thought-provoking book about a possible bleak dystopian future hooked me from the very beginning, when I didn't know what the heck was going on because the singular individual was referring to himself as "we"...

Archived Electronics Reviews: a dumb idea

Sat, 29 Apr 2000 16:46:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - WebTV is one of the oddest things ever invented - going online through your television??.. It's absurb, and uncomfortable, mainly because you have no privacy. If you don't have a computer and want to go online, then I'd suggest this, but otherwise.....

No Doubt: WHAT DID THEY DO TO THEMSELVES??? it's sooooooo depressing

Mon, 24 Apr 2000 23:47:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - I wanted to cry when I realized how bad this CD was! I can’t believe my favorite band let me down. Everything they used to stand for, everything I used to love and respect them so much for is now gone, gone, gone. It’s so frustrating to see my favorite...

dumb, annoying

Sun, 23 Apr 2000 13:39:37 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author desoto_girl - This game is not very good. For one thing, I'm not exactly a loyal fan of these annoying lets-see-how-impossibly-dark-and-hard-to-see-we-can-make-the-screen "action" games where you run around dimly lit halls filled with chunky graphics and...
