A Voyage Long and Strange: Rediscovering the New World by Tony Horwitz

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 22:04:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - From Vikings to Pilgrims, this delightful book by Pulitzer Prize winning author Tony Horwitz uncovers historical facts in a way that is exciting and, at times, quite humorous. The neat thing about his books is that they are also "travelogues" - he...

Sun, 14 Jun 2009 04:07:11 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - I have discovered a new way to find book recommendations. Watching Book TV on C-SPAN2. The authors themselves give lectures on their books, answer questions from the audience, and I discovered this completely by accident while staying up all...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Late at night, I was flipping through the more "obscure" channels with my remote, (at least "obscure" to my viewing habits) and was captured by an author simply describing his recent book on America's first school bombing. I confess, I had...

Wed, 17 Sep 2008 13:59:20 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - I see from some of the other reviews here that Curves for Women is pretty popular and well-liked. And I admit, the concept of a place where women can work out without a bunch of men leering at them was long overdue . . . here in Portland, Oregon we had a...

US Airways - Paying for my In-Flight Ginger Ale Was the Last Straw!

Sun, 7 Sep 2008 23:55:12 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - US Airways is a bare bones airline. I first flew when the company was America West, before the merger with US Airways, which went smoothly enough. I flew because they had the cheapest flight to Guadalajara, Mexico, and then like many other customers, I...

Wed, 3 Sep 2008 02:52:33 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Making hotel reservations sight unseen is always a nerve-racking experience. SO if you are planning to take a trip to Disneyland, and want a recommendation, allow me to give you my unbridled opinion of the Best Western Park Place Inn and Mini...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - I joined Bally Total Fitness two years ago and purchased a two year membership. I chose to only select my local Bally to visit, meaning I had no access to any other location. But that was fine with me. I had never "worked out" before, except on a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Clinique foundations have been around for years. I remember thinking how glamorous my Grandmother was for using her Clinique skincare 3-step program and makeup. I tried hers, but it was always too dark for my skin, and felt greasy to boot! Estee...

Sat, 5 Jan 2008 09:34:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - HOW TASTELESS ... and I like it that way! Nordic Naturals Arctic Cod Liver Oil in orange flavor is completely tasteless. I have to laugh about the fact that they sell both orange, lemon and peach flavors, because I've ordered them all and...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - I have had two haircuts from the same expensive stylist in the last couple of years. The first one was very layered and short. I tucked it behind my ears and used MOP's Molding cream to make it separate and flip up at the ends. The picture I have on...

Family Guy - Perverted, Inappropriate, Excellently Done Cartoon

Sat, 5 Jan 2008 01:16:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Family Guy is an Emmy award winning adult-oriented cartoon that should not be watched by children, and most adults probably watch it with a bit of guilt in the back of their heads. If not, I'm scared for America just a little! I count Family Guy as...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Before Christmas, when my Crest Whitestrips Premium Plus were requested of Santa but had not yet arrived, I was hanging out at my local Walgreens store and noticed much to my DELIGHT, a $1.99 way to whiten my teeth. It was by Natural White, and called...

Thu, 3 Jan 2008 01:20:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Why Whiten? The Advantages! Look at a young child with healthy teeth. The color of our teeth should be close to the color of the whites of our eyes. Seriously. If you are seeing a big difference, plain and simple, whitening your teeth is...

Wed, 2 Jan 2008 03:02:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Who DOES like rinsing with Listerine? I don't know any who do! My dad has rinsed daily with the original full-strength, knock-you-on-your-bottom formula ever since I can remember, and every once in awhile as a child, I would try to be like dad and pour...

Wed, 2 Jan 2008 02:03:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - There are no quick fixes for pimples. I think this is the most important thing I want to stress in my review of Proactiv's 1 oz. Refining Mask, most often included with the purchase of their complete system of Cleanser, Toner and Lotion. I love this...

Wed, 2 Jan 2008 01:37:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Burt's Bees Peppermint Foot Lotion is amazingly composed of 100% natural products. In fact, after reading the ingredient list, I tasted it and it was DE-licious! O.k., not quite delicious, but it tasted like pure peppermint and I have to admit, I can't...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Pick your poison with this product. Would you rather have a sunspot or a red, irritated spot that remains on your face for 6 - 8 weeks and then STILL leaves you with a sunspot? For me, I found Sunspot ES by Lane Labs to be not only irritating to my...

Sat, 29 Dec 2007 22:17:28 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - LUSH‘s Dreamtime Bath Melt is a product I would not purchase again, because it doesn’t really do much of anything except smell like lavender and look pretty. Now that’s a good thing – lavender smells great, and looking pretty is great too. However,...

Fri, 28 Dec 2007 21:35:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hempem - Once I got over laughing at the clever title, especially the term "Self-HINDER" and the giant yellow sad face on the cover, I opened this tiny gem of a book prepared for some witty comments poking fun at the self-help movement. What I found instead...
