Black & Decker Convection Toaster Oven: CONVECTION NOT AS HOT AS EXPECTED

Sat, 26 Sep 2009 10:08:13 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I really should begin my six part serial reviews with something more exciting like our new Samsung Blu-ray DVD player or our General Electric refrigerator that oddly has a theater light water/ice dispenser, or at the very least our new microwave that...

Nintendo Wii – JUST CANT GET ENOUGH

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 13:42:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - You could, or should I say can, call me an odd fellow. I started reviewing the Nintendo Wii over a year ago and never got around to finishing the review. I started it with the following paragraph: “I begin my review of...

Scrubbing Bubbles Toilet Cleaning Gel – INEFFECTIVE CLEANER/EFFECTIVE WASTE OF MONEY

Mon, 5 Jan 2009 00:45:15 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - "Out with the old and in with the new" quite an appropriate saying this being a new year and a review on a toilet bowl cleaner. I know my fans may be a wee bit disappointed that after a year hiatus that I have focused my efforts to the S.C...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - It was May 21, 2007 when our new S

ION died on us after returning from a week long vacation. The Saturn dealership was so apologetic that they swiftly put me into a Saturn Outlook for free while our ION was in...

Saturn ION 2007: GREAT CAR, LEMON NIGHTMARE, STILL GOOD CAR. (Updated @ 5,000 Miles)

Thu, 14 Jun 2007 03:49:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - It was a cold December 2006 (60 degrees) by Vegas standards. We had sold our Jeep Cherokee that had transmission problems and sold the Kia Sephia that rattled and stopped working a few weeks after making a trek across the California/Nevada desert. We...

The Hand That Rocks The Cradle - SUPER EVIL NANNY, SUSPENSEFUL, MEMORABLE

Sat, 3 Feb 2007 16:41:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - My social psychology teacher once told me that the surest way to make a date “memorable” was to take one to a scary or intense movie. I doubt my parents nor my preacher would have allowed his daughter and I to go see The Hand That Rocks The...

Sat, 3 Feb 2007 15:27:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Ignore the current movie poster above - American Outlaws does not star Stallone or Banderas but instead Colin Farrell as Jesse James and his outlaws; Cole Younger/Scott Caan, Frank James/Gabriel Macht, Jim...

"Love by The Beatles" - Loved the Show - Loved the CD

Sat, 27 Jan 2007 18:54:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I am not a Beatles fan. Love by the Beatles is the first CD from their musical career I have ever purchased. I bought it as a gift to my wife (a Beatles fan) for Christmas yet have found myself enjoying many of its 26 tracks. My excitement...

Converts Water to Mist Making It Great - Maintenance However Not So Great

Wed, 24 Jan 2007 01:01:51 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - The year 2007 has not started out very well for me. Due to a new position I have been extremely stressed. It didn't help that a co-worker had her children murdered. Add to that it actually snowed on the Las Vegas strip – and I got hit with the...

Tue, 23 Jan 2007 00:31:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - As I write this I am staring at my imperfect LCD purchase as my old CRT looks faded towards the left. I went into Best Buy thinking that buying my first flat screen monitor would be as easy as walking out the door and utilizing Microsoft's plug-and-play...

Sun, 31 Dec 2006 20:28:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Almost everyday when leaving for work I worried about two things. Did I lock the door and did I turn off the coffeemaker? Before Christmas we had been using an inexpensive Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Coffeemaker that did just that, make coffee. That is all it...

Sun, 31 Dec 2006 14:46:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Christmas 2006 has come and gone and Santa left me a new mouse! It could not have come at a better time as my old trackball Dell mouse was starting to skip and jump when in use even with constant cleanings. The time had come for an optical mouse. I...

Inside Man - SLOW. PRETENTIOUS. WASTE OF MONEY (TWICE!)

Sun, 24 Sep 2006 17:19:59 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I must either really like this movie or I must either really not like this movie. I rented it. Watched it. Returned it. Then a couple of weeks later I rented it again. The second time felt like the first time. Either this is a really good movie or...

Lucky Number Slevin - STYLISH. HUMOROUS. GUNS WITH SILENCERS!

Sun, 24 Sep 2006 13:00:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - When a movie bases a storyline motif on a dance move, the Kansas City Shuffle as is the case with Paul McGuigan’s Lucky Number Slevin it only works if you don’t have two left feet. Without such luck then one must resort to a catchy tag or...

Mysterious Skin - HAUNTING. DEPRESSING. NEEDED.

Sat, 23 Sep 2006 16:08:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Gregg Araki’s films are not easy to watch. His films are bleak but there is also promise and at times when watching one I think to myself and wonder sometimes how he gets the money to make them. They are not mainstream by any definition of the term...

Sat, 23 Sep 2006 14:57:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I am sitting here typing this review on my Dell keyboard, staring at my Dell monitor, using Microsoft Word from Dell. But not this review nor any other Epinions’ reviews will ever print again from the free Dell printer. After spending upwards of $40 a...

Numbhunters – I HAVE PROFILED WORSE MOVIES

Wed, 21 Jun 2006 00:36:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - It is a little sad that Renny Harlin's Mindhunters is being remembered more for being a pawn in the Miramax and Walt Disney divorce and for it countless canceled release dates than it is for being a fairly well acted, taunt, psychological...

Tue, 18 Apr 2006 23:16:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I don't know why it took me so long to discover online pizza ordering but this past weekend I discovered it – and ordering from Pizza Hut will never be the same again. Today (4/18/06) there are only two major national pizza chains that offer...

Mon, 17 Apr 2006 01:22:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - According to recent news reports, Las Vegas is listed as one of the worse cities per capital for identity theft. Just last year we had someone ram their van through the wall at a DMV and steal their computer systems. My wife wants to start recycling...

Sun, 16 Apr 2006 02:07:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - I feel it important to point out at the beginning of this review – this review is based off of a test drive experience. Although my wife and I came close, very close, to buying this used car – we ultimately walked out of the dealership...

Sat, 28 Jan 2006 02:18:08 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - The commercials put me into a corner and I decided the only thing that would make sense would be to try something at least once and then at least see/write... Well guess what… I should have listened to/read.... Epinions, when it came to...

Sun, 22 Jan 2006 15:33:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Last year the highest temperature recorded in Las Vegas was 125 degrees. At that temperature the desire to cook outdoors almost becomes a necessity. Problem is, Las Vegas also has a fire ordinance that prevents anyone who rents an apartment from...

Sun, 22 Jan 2006 13:55:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - Have you ever wondered how to mix drinks? I have, in fact somewhere I have a little cocktail guide that explains several drinks, what I need, and how to mix them. Problem is, I can never seem to find my guide around the same time that I have alcohol to...

Thu, 19 Jan 2006 00:44:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author lynus - This is going to be a pretty sad review. You see, I have really bad dandruff. My doctor has said that the same gene responsible for asthma is also responsible for dry skin especially dry scalp. Since I now have to take daily medication to control my...
