Billy Rocks The Ballet

Mon, 4 Dec 2000 16:50:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - How, I wondered, could Billy Elliot be compared to The Full Monty and Brassed Off? After all one film deals with a boy who wants to dance, another with men who decide to bare all, and the other with a bunch of dysfunctional band members. But there are...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - When I moved to S.W. Florida from Omaha, Nebraska two years ago my son helped me carefully pack my good old Sony Trinitron 27 inch TV. It made the journey in good shape and served me well in my new surroundings for about a year. Suddenly the color...

For-Get Carter

Fri, 6 Oct 2000 19:59:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - What a waste of two hours and $4.50. Thank Heavens I qualify for the senior price. These are harsh words from a Stallone fan, but Get Carter was almost as bad as Judge Dred, or whatever that awful sci-fi thing was called. I can't figure out why...

Letterman Should Let Up

Fri, 6 Oct 2000 14:09:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - In my humble opinion David Letterman beats Jay Leno hands down. It's not that I dislike Jay, I just appreciate David's sense of humor better. His laid-back approach and clever wit bring me a lot of pleasure. Even when he's talking to members of the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - Having worked most of my life, daytime television was not a luxury I could afford. I always felt I had never missed much because Soap Opera's were certainly not my thing. Years ago when I worked for a radio station we carried all those soaps from NBC...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - After trying a few other brands, I couldn't be more serious in saying the Regalware Kitchen Pro is the breadmaker to buy. I tried a couple of those $99 specials and in my opinion it's $99 totally wasted. They were promptly returned to the store. It...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - Boy have high chairs ever changed over the years. Back when my kids were little it was those wooden high chairs where the tray lifted over their head and you had to strap your child into them and keep your fingers crossed that they wouldn't fall out...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - Is there a woman alive who has not at one time or another had a little sample bottle of Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion? It's been around forever and is still working wonders. Like others, I have lots of the little sample bottles...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - I am a recent convert to Nike running shoes. For years I had purchased Reebok. I think it was the many fashionable colors that grabbed my attention. I had them in about ten different shades. Most of them have bitten the dust by now, all except two...

Thu, 28 Sep 2000 18:55:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - I don't care how many ads you see on tv about the Pepsi Challenge where people don't know what they are drinking and they sample the little paper cup of cola, only to end up saying they like Pepsi best. If, in fact, this does happen, it's because once...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - Shower intrigued me from the moment I saw the poster in the theater. Then I read a review in the local paper and decided it would be one of the better films this year. I was not disappointed. I'm still trying to figure out why the poster shows two old...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author disaggau - Seems to me I have used this brush somewhere on some of my dogs. I can't swear that it's the one I used on my Afghan Hound Alex, a beautiful blond dog that lived up to the dumb blonde jokes. Beauty was what Alex had plenty of, but brains, I don't think...
