Eternally perfect

Sat, 15 Jan 2000 14:54:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I've been to Rome several times, for different reasons: business, pleasure (even a honeymoon!) and I can't get enough of "The Eternal City". From its rural outskirts to the madding craze of its city drivers, each aspect is compelling,...

Does it get better?

Sat, 15 Jan 2000 14:32:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - The ultimate masterpiece! This is an album that could only be conceived of by Pink Floyd. Each song makes it own unique statement and moves you in different ways, yet the whole can be taken together - as a profound examination of materialism, war and...

Excellent analysis

Tue, 11 Jan 2000 00:51:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - Karl Keating does an excellent job of examining the different views of Catholicism and distilling them to their roots. By breaking down the differing arguments, you can easily see their error and provide a scriptural rebuttal that even fundamentalists...

Napster: Enjoy your music

Sat, 8 Jan 2000 14:01:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I was still new to the MP3 world when a friend recommended Napster. The program is great - and free! I'm using the current beta version and it's kept me enjoying music for hours.

Simply type in some keywords - singer or song title - and...

Worth The Money

Tue, 4 Jan 2000 23:01:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I have been using this product for four months now and I am very impressed. Although it is a bit pricey, the ability to grind coffee beans or use ground coffee is great. The product is not complicated to use and is easy to clean up. I prefer to buy...

a disappointment

Tue, 4 Jan 2000 11:36:19 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I kept hearing good things about 103 West, so my wife and I went into Atlanta to try it out. I was extremely disappointed with the service and food. I expected an elegant restaurant with well-trained servers and excellent food. While the restaurant was...

Insightful industry magazine

Fri, 31 Dec 1999 16:30:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I'm the website director for a large company with several sites and I began receiving this magazine just over a year ago. I've been very impressed with the content and direction of the magazine. Rather than focusing on the technical aspects or small...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - This Christmas our daughter turned 6 months and received the Graco Stationary Entertainer as a gift. It's a wonderful toy that she loves. We've tried several different entertainment toys, but this is the first that keeps her happy for more than a few...

More fun than expected

Fri, 31 Dec 1999 15:43:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - My wife loves the show "Wheel of Fortune", so I got her the game this year. I expected her to like it, but I loved it as well. The only downside is Vanna White's place in the game - you'll hate hearing "That's too bad" when you go...

An eye for Atlanta

Sun, 19 Dec 1999 03:45:08 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - Tom Wolfe proves that he can see through political facades in this pretty decent book with the terrible ending (more on that in a minute). I've lived in Atlanta for more than 26 years and I was impressed by the political dissection that Wolfe did on...

Civ 2.1??

Sun, 19 Dec 1999 03:01:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - I've been playing Civ II for a long while now. The game is very addictive and enjoyable, so naturally I ran out and grabbed Call to Power as soon as it hit the shelves. I was excited to tear into a new version of my favorite game.

However,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - This holiday season, I decided to treat myself to a new laptop. After searching and testing several, I chose to purchase the Sony Viao F350. This is an incredible laptop. Mine includes a DVD player and I increased my RAM to 124 mgs over the 64 that it...

A big, comfy vehicle

Sat, 18 Dec 1999 20:09:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jallen30 - Recently, my Jeep Cherokee was in an auto accident. While it was being fixed, the insurance agency gave me a 1999 Chevy Suburban to drive. When I bought my Jeep, I didn't even look at the Suburban - I thought it was too big, but I've begun to change my...
