rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - I've played tour guide in the City many times for friends and family visiting from around the world. I was born in San Francisco and have lived in the Bay Area my entire life. I've got a large extended family who live all over the world and we always...

My Orange Martini

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - Well this isn't really a review. There has been some talk in this area of an Orange Martini and I thought I'd share one I created a few months ago.

I'll give it to you first then a little history behind it.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - Beyond the Sea of Ice begins Sarabande's multi-novel epic "the First Americans". It probably falls into the general fiction category since it's rather difficult to classify a genre for it. It's not historical fiction; the events and people...

Have we left the 21st century?

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - Why Molokai?

If you're looking for an undiscovered tropical paradise Molokai is the place for you. To say Molokai is not for everyone is an understatement. First thing you should do is gather up all your ideas of what Hawaii is, the post...

As promised an update

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 19:45:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - Well, I've put some significant mileage on this car since that first 150 mile review and have a few new things to add.

First read my original review "Brand Spankin New" to see why I choose the Envoy. You should get a chuckle at...

Now I'm King of the BBQ's

Thu, 22 Jun 2000 18:55:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - I'm not quite over the edge when it comes to BBQ's. You know I don't chain the thing to the back of my pick-up and head out to Nashville to spend my vacation debating the merits of oak vs hickory at the great Pork Roast. But, if you were to fire up all...

Apple Studio Display: Modern Art

Thu, 2 Mar 2000 16:14:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - It's pretty, it's cool, and the price is not bad for a Mac product.

Resolution is excellent and it supports a wide range of settings. Colors are true and deep. Visually it's a great monitor. I do suspect it will need frequent degaussing...

Brand Spankin New

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 19:36:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - The odometer just turned 150, so in all reality I shouldn't be writing a review on this car yet, but what the heck. I'll come back and let everyone know how it's doing in 3-4 months too.

This SUV is a hidden treasure. It's amazing how few...

ETRADE: EService Loser

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - You want a difficult task? Looking to try and achieve the impossible? Up for going boldly where no one has gone before?

Try getting customer service from E*Trade. Mr. Spock would probably flip out in a total rage of frustration and anger...

Spoiled now

Tue, 29 Feb 2000 19:43:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - This was our third cruise, and by far our most enjoyable. We're definitely spoiled now. I don't think I could cruise again on a smoking ship. Coming from California, where you NEVER battle public smoke, this was great.

The crowd was a...

Keep Looking

Tue, 29 Feb 2000 18:56:36 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author hermmy - Not sure how this place started of with 4 stars. People need to get out more often I guess. It's unique, that's for sure. You pick your food out, and stand and watch while it's cooked up on a huge grill. Kind of like a cafateria sytle Benihana's.
