Twinkies and Corn Dogs, Canine Style.

Tue, 9 Jan 2001 04:01:28 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I was seventeen and fairly new to dogs when I got Seamus. Sure, my mom had dogs when I lived with her but she always took care of them, bought the food for 'em, whatever. Dog nutrition, before age seventeen, was just not a big thing in my life. Had you...

Everclear, Like Cheez Whiz, Isn't Always A Terrible Thing.

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 02:08:22 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - In order to review this CD, I must first admit an embarrassing fact: I own this CD. I’ve purchased it, listened to it, and can even compare it to their other CDs because (even more embarrassingly) I own those, too. Everclear themselves are about as hip...

Flying The Clueless Skies...

Mon, 25 Dec 2000 02:37:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I’ve spent way too much of my life folded into plane seats built for the vertically challenged. My best-case scenario is getting three seats to myself, and even that’s grim. I wind up origami-ed into fetal position, practically chewing on my knees or...

Mohegan Sun: Dehydrated, Hobbled And Taken For $5, But It Was Fun

Sun, 10 Dec 2000 21:44:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I am not a casino person. Casinos represent two things I generally try and avoid: large groups of people and negative cash flow. I am, however, a dutiful daughter. Thus in the process of visiting my mother I found myself standing in the big, tacky lobby...

Terri Crisp Made A Cynic Weep.

Sat, 2 Dec 2000 01:59:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Our culture is notoriously devoid of heroes. Yes, we have our overpaid, endlessly whiney sports stars, our greasy politicians, our royal martyrs, etc, etc but are these people really heroes? Or are they just empty figureheads for a culture that buries...

Being An Animal Lover Does Not Mean One Is Brain Dead.

Sat, 11 Nov 2000 00:20:06 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Ahhh, Animal Planet. I was so terribly excited by the idea of it. Being familiar with the Discovery Channel's animal and wildlife programs and being a big old dog wingnut, the idea of Animal Planet made my mindless sensory input gland drool. Dogs and...

When You're This Stoned, Who Cares About A Little Phlegm?

Sun, 29 Oct 2000 20:13:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I am the snot princess. There is just something about me where I cannot have a 'little' cold. Either I'm one hundred percent healthy, or I'm 2,000 percent sick - totally stuffed up, headache-y, and pouring phlegm out of every miserable pore in my...

Harness The Dogs, Boys, It's Testosterone On The Tundra

Tue, 24 Oct 2000 14:51:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I have the same attitude towards the Iditarod that most hardcore animal lovers have: I don't like it. I don't have much respect for extreme outdoor adventures in general - if you get killed climbing Everest, don't expect me to cry any tears for you. The...

It's Like Having My Own Little Iditarod!

Wed, 20 Sep 2000 14:18:00 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - You really wouldn't think a twenty pound dog would be able to dump you on your butt. Especially if you're a good bit closer to six feet than five and outweigh the little monster by 110 lbs easy.

You haven't met Mercy.

Mercy is our...

Doctor Bloodbath, White Courtesy Phone.....

Tue, 19 Sep 2000 23:36:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Oh my god - stop the presses:

Hollywood has had an original idea.

The shock! The horror! There are no serial murderers in this movie. Nor are there any sweet young things with terminal illnesses, mother/daughters in turmoil, or any...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I am about to slaughter some serious sacred cow here.

Divine Secrets of The Ya Ya Sisterhood is practically an institution now. Women across the country have started fan clubs devoted to this book. Ya-Ya-ism's have permeated language in some...

I'd Rather Beat Myself To Death With A Spatula

Sun, 10 Sep 2000 03:14:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - IHOP is just one of those places better left in memory. If you went there when you were a kid, you probably went nuts over the chocolate chip pancakes and the Rooty-Tooty-Fresh-And-Fruity. Maybe you didn't - I don't know. But I did. So when me and the...

The Terrible Price Of That Tiger In The Window...

Sun, 3 Sep 2000 23:39:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - "We kindly request permission to slaughter 10 captive born American Black Bear for human consumption", the letter read. It was addressed to the New York State Department of Conservation. If you're from New York, you might have known these...

Yes, But Do They Have A Swimwear Competition?

Fri, 1 Sep 2000 04:06:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Few things in life are more interesting than bizarre sub-cultures. When you get right down to it, most people are closet voyeurs. We are all. That's why we love television, movies - anything that gives us a glimpse into how other people are spending...

Monster.com: Playing Pin The Resume On A Very Cranky Zombie...

Thu, 31 Aug 2000 16:06:23 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I am have just spent two hours on Monster.com. God help me, I want to kill someone right now. Preferably their web designer.

Let me back up a bit.

I'm a grievously underemployed college grad. Right now I'm giving my degree a...

Was She Ever Really There To Begin With?

Mon, 28 Aug 2000 01:11:37 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I read like pigs eat. I hork down books sloppily, often devouring one or two in a day (yep, I read on the company dollar). My usual tactic for approaching books is a guerrilla one: I attack with the intent of finishing it off as quickly as possible.

A Not So Fresh Feeling Season In New York.....

Tue, 22 Aug 2000 02:35:52 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I'm going to sum it up real quick for you, in case you don't have time to read this whole review:

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, SEE THIS MOVIE.

I don't care if your only other entertainment option for the evening is exploratory...

I May Be Fat And Hairy, But I'm Not Stupid - That's Kibble.

Sat, 12 Aug 2000 04:12:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I love Sensible Choice Chicken And Rice food. If you want to hear me sing the Hallelujah Chorus about the food, read my review of it. Great food, best on the market in my opinion. The biscuits, however, are a whole other story.

Or maybe...

My Life as a Real Dog: by Dido: I Always Thought Debarking Was Cruel Until I Read This Book

Wed, 9 Aug 2000 02:01:33 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - First of all, y'all owe me a big old thank you. This is, hands down, the worst frickin' dog book I have ever read and the only reason I forced myself to finish this book was so that I could write a review of it so you people wouldn't make the same...

The Book That Would Be Rice Pudding.

Sun, 30 Jul 2000 03:10:10 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I am, by nature, a woman of strong opinions. If you look at any of my other epinions, you'll notice I seem to have two modes: tear it to shreds or nominate it for sainthood. Thus, it is with absolute bewilderment on my part that have only one word to sum...

Houston, We've Got Hair On The Butt.

Thu, 27 Jul 2000 05:47:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - My shar-pei mutt, Seamus, has the skin allergies from Hades. He gets bit by a flea? Bam. No hair on his butt. He eats something with wheat? Bam. Hairless heinie. Beef? Bald buttocks. Third Wednesday of any month with an "r" in it? Time for the...

When Unlikable People Own Interesting Pets.

Thu, 23 Mar 2000 04:18:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Call me kooky, but I have this bizarre little personality tic: when I pick up a book on a particular subject, it's because I want to read about THAT particular subject. Nitpicky and anal, I know, but that's just how I am. Which is one of the reasons I...

Thu, 16 Mar 2000 05:19:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - Take yourself to Barnes & Noble, Borders, whatever. Scurry on over to the pet section and take a good long look. You've got Rottweilers, Border Collies, Bichon Frise, Anatolian Shepherds, East Croatian Bat Herders - if it's got four paws and a hairy...

A Must Have For Anyone Who's Ever Found Love At The Pound.

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 05:01:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I first saw this book in a local book shop, when I was wasting time waiting for an appointment or something. I sat down, read the whole book, and then discovered I didn't have my wallet. A most distressing occurrence when you discover a book like Elise...

Saving Molly saves the soul of the animal testing debate.

Sat, 4 Mar 2000 04:31:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author muttgirl - I opened this book with my teeth bared, prepared to hate it, and hate it's author, Dr. James Mahoney, even more. How could I not hate him? I'm an animal loving vegetarian and he's a RESEARCH VET. How could I not hate him and his lousy book? I only got it...
