rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author girlfriday1 - Fellow epinionator, mashimaru, wrote a very thorough and spot-on review of this pricey, but oh so worth it straight iron. If I were to be as thorough, would be redundant. So, let me just be the girl in the back that nods and agrees that this hair...

Wed, 3 May 2000 15:20:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author girlfriday1 - Just when I thought it was safe to review Disney's James and the Giant Peach purely from a child's stand-point, I come across a review of this quirky little movie that makes a good argument for Marxist tones that are hard to deny. Wish I could say...

Mon, 27 Mar 2000 17:13:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author girlfriday1 - "Miss Manners". That title has followed me for quite some time. Nothing irks me more than ignorant oafs hosting bridal showers and dinner parties. I am known to get my feathers ruffled when thank you's are not properly addressed or...
