rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - I've banked with several of the majors and a few of the minors. I of course have a horror story from Bank of America and Wells Fargo, but then, who doesn't? US Bank suits my needs just fine.

Tue, 21 Nov 2000 21:32:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - One of the best offerings from the best Rock and Roll band this country has ever produced. That's pretty much Pump in a nutshell.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - I'm a Reno resident and so I've stayed at Circus Circus and occasionally head there for dining, gaming or even to play around in the midway.

Tue, 21 Nov 2000 19:14:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - It was this book, and Mr. Adams' writing style which convinced me that I must become an author. It also will be this book and Mr. Adams who will surely sue me when my book comes out and make a killing off of me. Perhaps not, but honestly this is a...

Nice Hotel, Nicer Location

Sun, 19 Nov 2000 19:07:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - The Flamingo Hilton is not to be confused with the newer major theme casinos on the strip.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - Even a beginner on a first day can get bored at Boreal. Boreal sits right at the top of Donner Summit which is where Interstate 80 crosses the Sierras.

You want it all? This is it!

Sun, 19 Nov 2000 14:48:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - Northstar at Tahoe is an excellent all-purpose ski resort. It's not a sheer cliff whose death-defying rocky crags attract Warren Miller's team, nor is is an endless bunny hill for kids and beginners. Rather it has something for everyone. The lower...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - Great help, even better price!

A while back I read a review of the Palm M100 in a magazine and decided it sounded like it was right up my alley. It was that and then some. I've tried planners and Day Runners in the past, but I've never...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author kitchenwizard - My Capital One card came to me in the usual way - I received a pre- approved offer. Since that time, it has been nothing but headaches. I was surprised with a ridiculously low credit limit, less than a third of the limits of the other cards in my...
