Tue, 18 Jan 2005 11:32:19 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Being a broke law student wanting for her loans to come, I decided to have a more inexpensive Christmas this year and giving out presents like burned cds. That was the plan for my mother up until I saw a commercial for The Phantom of the Opera a...

The Most Important Fake Textbook ... Ever

Thu, 21 Oct 2004 11:17:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - The second I heard that the Daily Show was putting out a book, I knew I had to have it. It was a question of whether or not I could hold on to Christmas and wait for someone to get it for me. Luckily my friend Megan solved that problem for me by...

Head Down to the Yards!

Mon, 20 Sep 2004 16:17:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I’ve been an O’s fan my whole life starting from when I was six years old and saved up my allowance to buy a little radio so that I could listen to the games as I went to sleep at night. Though my passion may have waned since then, I am still a...

I'm glad I saw it, but I never want to see it again!

Sun, 16 Nov 2003 23:33:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - The title of this review is what I heard someone else say in the bathroom after the showing. That sums up my reaction pretty well and is just how I felt after watching it. The Basics The Magdalene Sisters is a haunting movie about a M...

A True Blue Comparison Test

Mon, 2 Jun 2003 23:13:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - First off, thanks to shantel575 for helping me get this posted to the right place.

When shaving my legs I use Skintimate shave gel, if I use one at all. A lot of times it's some shampoo or body wash stuff or plain old soap...

Cross-dressing, Racial Integration, and Over-eating have Never Seemed so Wholesome!

Mon, 27 Jan 2003 22:35:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - That's actually a quote from the wonderfully wicked John Waters that really describes the musical Hairspray. I would love to do a review on the actual musical, but I can't seem to find a place for that on epinions, so I decided to do the next...

Yes Virginia, There Really is a Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy

Wed, 24 Jul 2002 01:35:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I'll admit that a large part of why I am writing this review was to use that title. But it’s also because I loved this book. It gives an inside look at the backroom tactics of the conservative movement in the 1990s from some one who was in the middle...

If You Thought Indecision 2000 was Chaos...

Mon, 13 May 2002 14:44:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Here is an example of taking a hypothetical situation and running with it. This novel looks at the Electoral College and what happens when the laws governing it aren’t exactly clear. There are many characters and many twists and turns from beginning to...

The Truth about Attack Ads

Mon, 6 May 2002 22:22:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Dirty Politics by Kathleen Hall Jamison is a look into the ad campaigns of mainly presidential candidates. I found it extremely interesting but that is because I am a political junkie. Attack ads are looked at in this book and Jamison attempts to...

Abstaining from a Decent Movie

Wed, 27 Feb 2002 13:44:11 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Rarely does one find a film that offends them on so many levels. But 40 Days and 40 Nights is that film. For those of you who don’t know, 40 Days and 40 Nights is the latest offering from Miramax featuring boy-of-the-moment, Josh...

Sacrificing Story for Reality

Sat, 2 Feb 2002 15:25:06 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Black Hawk Down is one of those movies that screams “I’m important! Look at me!” And while the subject is important and we deserve to look at what exactly we were doing in Somalia in 1993, this movie really doesn’t grasp that. Sure we get some...

Another Parody that isn't Completely a Parody

Sun, 16 Dec 2001 19:55:33 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - When exactly did parody become synonymous with gross-out humor? Sorry to start out the review with a rant, I actually liked this movie but this is something that is really bothering me. I guess it started with Scary Movie but it really doesn't belong...

Keep on Talking

Thu, 29 Nov 2001 00:09:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Talk To Me is the book written by accomplished playwright and actress Anna Deavere Smith about her impressions of the presidency and the media. It seems odd that someone in Ms. Smith’s position would have any insight or authority to comment on...

Not to be Missed!

Sun, 11 Nov 2001 22:03:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I seem to love Sandra Bullock. I don't know how it happened. I never made a conscious decision to like her or not but as I look back at her credits I realize that I have seen a great deal of movies she's been in. And I liked a lot of them too. While...

Tue, 30 Oct 2001 21:50:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Primary Colors by Anonymous follows a Democratic candidate named Jack Stanton through the presidential primaries. This novel was the source of much discussion and controversy when it was originally released in 1995. It is a loosely veiled...

Drop Dead Hilarious!

Tue, 10 Jul 2001 00:02:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - It took me a long time to see this movie. I first wanted to see it when it came out in the summer of '99 but it was only in theaters for a couple weeks and I rarely see movies in the theater. So when it came out on video I almost picked it up a few...

I Loved the Musical, but Will I Like the Book?

Mon, 9 Apr 2001 23:57:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - The answer is yes. Like many people, I read this book after seeing the musical. I loved the show and wanted some more information on the characters. I thought that this was a book that I was capable of handling. My last experience of reading a book...

It's Raining Ashes!

Sun, 25 Mar 2001 22:34:22 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Everyone else seems to be raving about this attraction so it's up to me to be the sole dissenter. This was probably the worst experience I ever had at Disney (with the possible exception of when I was one and my parents were running and pushing me in my...

You call that Disney?

Fri, 23 Mar 2001 15:06:53 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I love Disney. I retain endless amounts of useless knowledge. So you would think this game would be perfect for me. Where did they go wrong?

This game was basically Disney's response to Trivial Pursuit. That is obvious from the setup of...

Not the ONLY, but Really Good!

Fri, 16 Mar 2001 14:03:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - What's the first thing you look at when you see a Broadway collection CD? That's right, the songs that are on it. But I had absolutely no idea what to expect when I got this. I won a little prize through my school's fundraiser which said I could pick...

How much will you love this? I don't know, it's a mystery!

Thu, 1 Mar 2001 21:57:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - This has to be one of my all time favorite movies. Every time I watch it I see something that I didn't catch before. It is one of those movies that you can watch over and over, appreciating every moment.

For those of you living in a tunnel,...

Gee.....Thanks Mom?!

Tue, 20 Feb 2001 00:57:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Well this opinion isn't exactly on this model. It is on the MP-105 model which looks very similar to this model. I would put this in the right category, except Epinions doesn't have a category for this product.

Okay now that I've gotten...

One to Add to My Collection of Death Books.

Wed, 14 Feb 2001 14:26:32 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I must admit it. I love Lurlene McDaniel's books. I think I started reading them at about age 12 and haven't stopped. I know that they are considered to young for me but I don't care. I still love reading and re-reading them.

So when this...

The Only Instrumental Cd I Own

Wed, 7 Feb 2001 15:10:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - Right off the bat, this album is very personal for me and you probably won't get the same reactions from it as I do. You see, when I was a senior in high school (a whole year ago) we put on a production of Little Women for which I was the assistant...

Still am Enchanted

Wed, 31 Jan 2001 14:55:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author epogurl - I read many of the other opinions on this attraction and felt a need to defend it. I was a disciple of the old show and am still a fan after the "new management."

First let me tell you about my experiences with the old show. The first time I...
