Long legs, beware!

Wed, 17 Sep 2008 14:59:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Elliptical training is my workout of choice. I can easily last a full hour on an elliptical without any of the knee pain that I feel when running and still burn about the same amount of calories. Unfortunately, I do not have, nor can I afford at the...

Sox fans really are nuts! :)

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Chilling is a very good word for this book. I say this because the basic plot could be a very real possibility in some parts of the world. Sure, those of us who live in the city or even the suburbs could never quite imagine the horror that Trisha...

I'd play it again...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Don't ask me why I rented this game from Blockbuster. I hated the movie when my husband tried to get me to watch it and never once watched any of the television episodes. The box display from the store didn't even give me an idea about what kind of game...

What, no swimming?

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I took the kids here one day because I was curious. I had read about on columbia4kids.com and it was so close to us that there was really no reason not to pass the time there for a day. It's really kind of weird when you're looking for the park. It's...

Worth the read

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 13:47:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I completely forgot about this book until I pulled it off my bookshelf the other night when in search of some reading material. I only keep books on there that I don’t mind reading more than once and here it sat, front and center. I started reading...

I'm a cheesy chick, what do you expect?

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 12:45:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Dawson's Creek was your typical teenage soap. It aired for 6 seasons and included all of your basic coming-of-age scenarios, the characters dealing with issues about drinking, sex, jobs, death, college choice, etc. It started when the kids were in grade...

Plenty of features, even if I haven't utilized them all

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 10:59:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - The phone we purchased is actually the Beyonce model. There was no listing for this model on epinions, so I'm doing the review here. If one is added, I will move it then. The only difference between the Beyonce model and the regular one is the...

The End Of A Historical Era Is Fast Approaching

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Ironically enough, I was in Boston visiting my brother when I heard the terrible news. "Their closing Yankee's Stadium?!?!?!" I was aghast. They can't do that, it's packed with history and greatness. Oh, what a travesty. My son and I are big Yankee...

Now I Know My ABC's, Won't You Take This Product From Me

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 10:46:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - When my son was about 2, somebody gave him this for his birthday. He played with it for hours on end, so much so that it got thoroughly annoying! I suppose I have to admit that if it can hold a child's attention like that though, it is most certainly a...

I hate bacon

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 10:12:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Back when I used to eat meat, I was a sausage person, never a bacon person. There was just something about the grease and crunchiness that did not appeal to me.When I saw Morningstar Bacon in Walmart for $2.98, I decided to give it a try. I...

Beef...It's What's For Dinner. Or Not.

Thu, 21 Aug 2008 09:43:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I've been a vegetarian for quite some time now and have always had the freezer stocked with veggie burgers, either the Morningstar brand or the Boca brand. I think it was about three years ago when I decided to start experimenting with some of...

My spidey senses are tingling.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - My husband found a pretty good deal on this game and picked it up for $20 (the regular monopoly was $35). **Of course, I just noticed that it wasn't such a great deal as now it is marked down to $10 in Walmart*** My seven year old son absolutely...

You'll see the screen in your sleep!

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 11:35:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I was addicted in the first 5 minutes of playing! My son's friends were staying over one night and asked me if I wanted to play this game. I had never heard of it but I love video games, so I said "sure". They ran home to get the game, leaving me...

He's the king of authors for a reason

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 09:56:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I might be a little biased here. I LOVE Stephen King novels. Always have and always will. There was a short once on Family Guy where Stephen King was sitting with his editor with no ideas on what to write about. He looks around the room and sees a lamp,...

A Handy Little Gadget

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 17:21:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - "Couldn't find her way out of a paper bag". "Can't get there from here", "Doesn't know her right from her left"...o.k., that last one isn't quite true, but I have forever been known as having a horrible sense of direction. I remember moving to...

I love my little car

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 15:46:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - We bought this car new in February of '04 and I have never really had any major problems with it. Overall, I'd have to say that it was well worth the reasonable price we paid for it. We first thought about buying a new car because I was truly sick of...

This stuff is a must for pool owners

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 13:32:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - I had never heard of this product before doing extensive online research for ways to keep my pool balanced. When I read about numerous people using this product and pure baking soda as their pool chemicals, I must admit, I was extremely skeptical. As...

Seems ok but I don't want one

Sat, 9 Aug 2008 21:05:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - My husband purchased this phone about two months ago. I think he is fairly satisfied with it but I've borrowed it and played with it enough times to know that it's not the phone for me. Don't get me wrong, this phone is full of useful features,...

Might be outdated, but it's everything I need

Sat, 9 Aug 2008 15:55:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jackie_skye55 - Typically, I will not buy new phones. There are too many new technologies that are being released daily and I have no need to keep up with them. I love new gadgets as much as the next person, but I like to wait until they are a little bit cheaper and any...
