Glad I didn't buy it!

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 21:20:42 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Before I start this review I should mention that I do not personally own this unit, but have used it nonetheless. I think that still makes me qualified to write a review, and if the WOD geeks disagree, I don't really care.

Anyway, recently I...

UPS is like a box of chocolates

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 03:37:18 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - If you're anything like me, you've had several -maybe even countless-

experiences with UPS. Most people have. I mean, they're almost like AT&T, you know? With long distance services, you have the "big three", which are AT&T,...

a good, versatile beer

Sun, 30 Jan 2000 03:02:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I am a person who prefers a mild beer to anything heavy or dark like an ale or a lager. Therefore, most of the beer I choose to drink has the word "light" in its name.

Michelob Light is one of my favorites. I find it to be a good...

Who Wants to be a Millionaire?

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 23:47:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - First of all I have to say, I love this show! I got hooked last fall when it was only aired in temporary runs every couple of months, but now that ABC has picked it up as a regular show I get to watch it 3 times a week!

The game is simple...

Macca hits the mark

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 17:32:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Listening to Paul McCartney's most recent offering, Run Devil Run, is somewhat like taking a step back in time (like, to before I was even born). This is not just another album. Of course, I wouldn't call any of McCartney's work "just another...

Queen: Classic Queen

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 16:47:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Queen- Greatest Hits Volumes I & II, 2 CD set

Whether you're a die-hard fan of Queen or you're just looking for a good compilation of their greatest hits, you can't go wrong with this 2 CD set. It is an excellent representation of their...

Long Live the King

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 16:22:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Of all the fast-food-burger-joint-type restaurants (like McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Jack-in-the-Box, etc.) I can think of, my favorite burger comes from Burger King. The flame broiling is what makes the difference. Their burger looks better,...

Not bad

Tue, 25 Jan 2000 22:42:59 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - This movie was pretty good. Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones seem to work well together. The basis of the plot is this: Catherine Zeta-Jones plays Gin, an insurance agent who is out to catch (or is that just what they want you to think?) Mac, a...

Almost as fun as giant heads on tiny bodies!

Tue, 25 Jan 2000 22:20:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I got my first taste of Reader's Digest as a child. My grandparents subscribed to it probably since before my mother was even born. They always had stacks upon stacks of back issues. And hey, let's face it: when you're a kid it seems like there's...

Discover this!

Sun, 23 Jan 2000 17:06:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - This channel gets pretty heavy rotation at our house. It offers quality programming any time of day. During the day, you can watch craft shows, like Martha Stewart, Lynette Jennings, and several others. Or, there are several cooking shows to choose...

Already awaiting the sequel: Fake Purse Ninjas

Sun, 23 Jan 2000 16:05:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I really enjoyed this movie. I expected to, of course- it was written by Steve Martin and stars himself and fellow comic genius Eddie Murphy.

Also featured are Heather Graham, Christine Baranski, and Robert Downey, Jr.

Steve Martin plays...

This one's not gonna BUST any BLOCKS!

Mon, 17 Jan 2000 00:44:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I went to see this movie last night with my sis-tee-ay (read: sister)

and my husband. (You might want to read my sis-tee-ay's epinion on this movie whilst you are here! Her name is scottiedawg!) We chose this flick because there was nothing...

Thehungersite.com: Make this your start page!

Sun, 9 Jan 2000 02:08:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I don't know who thought this site up, but I'm glad they did. It's nice to see that amongst all the trash that we are exposed to on the internet every day that there's a site out there that is doing so much good.

thehungersite.com really does...

Boone's Farm Wines: the stuff's pretty crappy if you ask me: some suggestions

Sun, 9 Jan 2000 01:26:24 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Boy, oh boy. I think we've all had a little Boone's Farm wine at some point or another in our lives. I know there's something to be said for a good, but inexpensive wine. And while a lot of people will disagree with me saying that it is, in fact,...

Now here's a vacuum that really sucks!

Sun, 9 Jan 2000 00:29:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - And I mean that in a good way!

I have two dogs, two cats, and a parrot- so I'm constantly cleaning up after someone. But since I work full-time, I don't plan on spending every free second I have cleaning my floors. So I needed a vacuum...

StartSampling.Com: Don't you think I WOULD if I COULD?!?

Sat, 8 Jan 2000 22:59:41 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - This site has got to be the biggest waste of time there is. The deal is, you're supposed to go there and sign up as a member, check the site often, and choose samples you'd like to receive. Yeah, whatever. I've checked it at all times of the day and it...

ICQ: I seek you

Wed, 5 Jan 2000 23:37:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - If you're looking for a reliable, customizable, user-friendly, and multi-featured instant message or chat program, you can't go wrong with ICQ. First of all, it's free, and you can't ask for a better price than that.

Although it is a large file and...

Qualcomm Eudora: You can't go wrong with Eudora

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 20:44:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - This is the best email client there is, in my opinion. The interface is not complicated; anyone can learn to use it. Files are easy to attach to outgoing messages, and files attached to incoming messages are easy to retrieve and view. HTML code comes...

Gator: I guess it's just not for me

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 20:14:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I downloaded this program a few months ago thinking it would be handy to be able to log in to websites with only one click. And I guess, theoretically, it would. But it's not that simple. I don't use the same login name and password for every site I...

I love mine!

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 18:36:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I asked for a CD changer for Christmas two years ago because I wanted to be able to play CDs in my car but didn't want to give up my tape player entirely (which is the reason I wanted a changer instead of an in-dash CD player). My husband bought me one...

drive on over to your local blaupunkt overdrive dealer

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 18:24:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - These speakers totally transformed my 'boxy but good' Volvo 740 into an acoustic chamber much to the delight of myself and my passengers. First of all, they are capable of deafening volume, but the true benefits of this speaker are the crispness and...

Well, by George!

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 17:28:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - Since I got the George Foreman grill, I hardly cook meat any other way.

It's convenient, it doesn't take up a lot of counter space, and it's easy to clean. I have cooked steaks, burgers, chicken breasts, and fish fillets with it. Just marinate and...

Better than MTV

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 17:12:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I don't spend a lot of time watching either MTV or VH1, but when I do, 90% of the time I watch VH1. I think part of this is due to age. I'm not old; I'm 26. But I have better things to do with my time than sit around and 'watch videos'. 10 years ago...

My 6 cents worth

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 16:14:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - I shyed away from going to see this movie back in the summer when it first came out because frankly, the trailers themselves scared the bejesus out of me! I mean, come on- a little boy who (in his own words) "sees dead people"!? I just knew...

Thumbs Up!

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 15:21:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author metermaid - As a kid, I was a Frogger junkie when my family first got an Atari. It was my favorite game. So when I got Frogger 3D for my PC this year for Christmas, I couldn't wait to load it and get started dodging cars and chasing turtles. This game does not...
