rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - This Epinion is my better-late-than-never (I hope!) contribution to a write-off hosted by tinasamuels entitled "Random Thoughts Editorial Write-Off". At the end of my essay is a list of the other fine participants, if you haven't already checked them...

Aging, Lines, Wrinkles - I OBJECT!

Fri, 20 Apr 2001 16:14:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - In the last 7 or 8 years, I'd suddenly realized I could no longer afford to ignore all the "product propoganda" ads in Women's Magazines for anti-aging products. I guess being blessed with good Irish genes, and giving up smoking and drinking 29 years...

Sex,Drugs,Rock 'n Roll=Almost Famous, almost a Perfect Movie

Sun, 24 Sep 2000 01:06:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - Watching "Almost Famous" was one of those rare movie experiences, where I continued to sit in the theatre, reading all the rolling credits at the end, and wishing I could watch it again, right then.

I didn't want it to be over. This...

28 Days - Pretty Darn Right On!

Sun, 14 May 2000 11:22:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I was reluctant to see this movie initially. When I read the reviews, saw the excerpts on talk shows, and previews at theatres, it turned me off. Something about making fun of a fatal illness that destroys families, health, careers, self-esteem,...

"A Grief Observed" - C.S. Lewis- A must-read (someday)

Tue, 9 May 2000 22:53:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I just read Poseidon's excellent (what else?) review on another of C.S. Lewis' books, and what came to mind was one of the most life-changing books I've read in my 50+ years, - "A Grief Observed", also by C.S. Lewis.

When I saw the...

Bocelli, Andrea: A Transcendent Voice - Andrea Bocelli

Sun, 30 Apr 2000 20:34:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I first saw, and heard, Andrea Bocelli last year - on Dateline, or 60 Minutes. He actually did very little singing; it was more of an interview, on how he had reached the heights of his career - still young, blind since childhood. At the time, I...

John Denver - still hard to think about...

Thu, 13 Apr 2000 12:24:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - Steve,

Thanks for this review. It brought tears, but that's OK. I have this CD, and every one John Denver ever made. And duplicates of most on tape, to play while driving. Like you, when I just plain need to feel good, more than any other music...

Gateway Essential 500: I'm In Love with my Computer!

Wed, 12 Apr 2000 12:22:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - Well, not really. But we do have a genuine mutual admiration society going these past 2 weeks. It does everything I ever dreamed I'd want in a new computer, and I treat it with care and respect. (i.e., no coffee on the desk, no playing around with its...

3 Cheers for Canada!!

Wed, 12 Apr 2000 06:07:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I loved the review on Canada by Missbehaving! I was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and only moved to West Michigan (200 miles away) when I was 38. Visiting Canada several times yearly with my family was always a great excursion! And then as an...

Great Magazine if You're Over 40 and Female!

Wed, 23 Feb 2000 14:10:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I just discovered "More" Magazine last week at my dentist's office. After looking through it for 30 minutes, I was told I could take it home with me. She had such positive things to say about it, I was a bit doubtful....a womens' magazine??...

Have seen 10 times!

Tue, 8 Feb 2000 04:55:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I think "The Breakfast Club" is probably one of the most important movies that high school, (and even junior high age) young people could see.

I used to work as a high school counselor, and as a family therapist with...

Cosmetics: Flax Seed Oil - Dry Skin Gone!

Tue, 8 Feb 2000 03:25:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - For the last 5 years I have been trying every cosmetic cream or lotion, and medicinal or herbal remedy available for my dry and itching skin. It was at the point by this summer where I wouldn't wear tank tops, I was so embarrassed by the marks from my...

Thehungersite.com: Yep, it's legitimate....

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 21:04:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I too, wondered whether this site was another time-waster......although a click of a key really didn't take THAT much time from my day~

But I've researched the sources from which I heard about it several months ago. It's definitely on the up and...

HP LaserJet Paper: It Really Doesn't Jam!

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 19:19:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - After 4 years of trying every paper on the market, I'd decided all printer paper must at some time do this "jam" thing. It sometimes happened after I reloaded, but just as often, occurred randomly. Although it seems like a minor annoyance,...

A Super Car in Every Way

Mon, 24 Jan 2000 14:45:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I bought my second Nissan this summer, a 1991 Nissan Stanza. After purchasing a 1988 Nissan Sentra new, 10 years ago, I decided to upgrade to an Automatic Shift with a few more amenities. But for the record, the Sentra was the best car I'd ever driven,...

More Sad than Happy.....

Mon, 24 Jan 2000 14:26:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fiona32 - I saw this movie with my grandsons 8 and 11. Although I found myself smiling during the many scenes evoking an "Oh, isn't that sweet! That darling little mouse is so bright and loving and grateful for family", I found these moments...
