We had two single beds about as wide as a plank and were basically cots. That's all there was room for! If I turned over, I'd knock a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~458254683780 Mon, 19 Jan 2009 03:52:24 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_458254683780?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_441562992260?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - The Harbour Plaza North Point is a very nice hotel comparable to a Ramada or average Marriott. Sometimes you see it rated or advertised as a 4 star hotel but I don't think that's quite accurate. 3.5 or 3 is more realistic, although this is quite a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~441562992260 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 04:19:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_441562992260?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_437204258436?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This book is supposedly a college text but more appropriately would be used in a HS social studies class. The book is focused narrowly on the US, consisting merely of a set of somewhat random essays on people dealing with their multiculturalism within... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~437204258436 Mon, 14 Jul 2008 09:19:31 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_437204258436?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_436317294212?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This hotel is a downtown conference hotel amidst the many tall buildings of Houston. Upon entering, if arriving by car, you will first be confounded by the many one-way streets and then be shocked by the cost of parking. $25 for valet or $15 in a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~436317294212 Mon, 7 Jul 2008 07:05:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_436317294212?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435168972420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This has got to be the cheapest cars out there. You can get one for a sticker price of under $8K! Of course, there's nothing in it - no a/c, manual windows and doors, no keypad with buttons to unlock or open things, no power steering, and I'm sure the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435168972420 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 04:48:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435168972420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434189602436?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This is a pretty nice hotel in a terrible location. It is not unsafe in any way, just isolated and rather inconvenient. It is close to NYC, but this is misleading. You can't get there (or anywhere) unless you take the hotel's shuttle. The shuttle... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434189602436 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 19:55:46 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434189602436?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_432776646276?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - The Prius is truly an amazing car. It will get you 45mpg much of the time and has nifty features unavailable in most other models. But I didn't buy it. The competition is slim for this car. Maybe the Honda Civic Hybrid, perhaps the Toyota Camry,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~432776646276 Fri, 6 Jun 2008 04:52:20 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_432776646276?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_432445558404?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - Does anyone know that the Camry comes in a hybrid? Yes, they do! However, it is not as trendy or hyped as the Prius so you can actually find these things on the lots - but not many so if you want one, hurry. I'm not a car dealer so I know how crazy... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~432445558404 Tue, 3 Jun 2008 05:46:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_432445558404?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_416433213060?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - "Cards" that you buy for tmobile are good for a prepaid account. That means that you are not on a plan, have no monthly bill, and simply pay for your airtime upfront. More on that later. It is hard to write a review about a card that isn't a card,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~416433213060 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 05:33:14 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_416433213060?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_416431050372?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This product is quite cool for the temperature like me. It measures both inside and outside temperatures, keeps records of the highs/lows, can be set to degrees F or C, and also has a little digital clock. This thermometer is small, thin, and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~416431050372 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 04:29:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_416431050372?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_416177884804?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - I don't own, and have never owned, very many vacuums. These things, no matter how hard you shop, are expensive - sometimes costing $500 or more! This Hoover, however is just about $100. In this range there is precious little. You could get the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~416177884804 Mon, 28 Jan 2008 05:17:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_416177884804?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415945756292?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - You should first know about me and how I use a camera. I use it for video chat with parents and children. I thought, when I bought this camera, that I would "vlog" - record a video log of my ever-so-interesting life and maybe post those vlogs to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415945756292 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 05:34:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415945756292?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415943659140?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - Concha y Toro wines are good to great wines, depending on what you buy. This particular one is a blend of merlot and cabernet grapes and is just fine for most occasions. As a blend, you will gain some complications like oak and cherry flavors, subtle... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415943659140 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 04:44:44 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415943659140?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415943265924?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This item is a fake street sign that says "Paramaribo St." The quality of the product is pretty good. It is made of metal (aluminum or steel I think) and since you're probably not going to hang this outside, it will last forever, unless you scratch... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415943265924 Sat, 26 Jan 2008 04:21:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415943265924?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415578164868?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - I don´t review a lot of books so bear with me. David Ansel (author) owns a company here in Austin that sells soup called The Soup Peddler. It is a unique and highly interesting company that delivers soup each week to customers around the city,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415578164868 Wed, 23 Jan 2008 05:08:41 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415578164868?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415324933764?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - With all the cheap hotels you can get in Reno, it's hard to imagine why the Motel 6 would be a choice to consider but there are reasons you might choose it. If you are not a tourist and don't want the hubbub of casinos, the long walks to parking, and... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415324933764 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 04:38:58 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415324933764?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415321656964?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - This is one of Reno's big casino hotels replete with everything to try to keep you from leaving the place - restaurants, no windows, free drinks - the usual! It's decidedly worn inside and the standards seem pretty low so you not like this place very... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415321656964 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 03:50:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415321656964?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_415210704516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - There is a mix of reviews about this place, both here and elsewhere online and I think I might know why. The star rating of the place is confusing. Depending where you go, you'll see this as a 3 or 4* hotel. It is hardly a 4* hotel when you get into... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~415210704516 Sun, 20 Jan 2008 05:26:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_415210704516?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_411756105348?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - I first bought this cologne about 2 years ago on sale at a Macy's-type department store as a replacement to the old, blue-bottle Nautica brand that I can't find anywhere (except online) anymore. Since then, I have not seen it again other than online... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~411756105348 Sun, 23 Dec 2007 04:10:18 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_411756105348?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_411176898180?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mistsy - Honduras is a wonderful country with some beautiful beaches and islands, mountains, cloud forests, Mayan ruins and more.
