Toshiba 27AF41, not a complaint here

Tue, 12 Mar 2002 20:05:01 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Ahh.... the elusive Flat Screen TV. No longer when sitting at the side of the TV do I have to ask my TV watching pal, "Hey, what happened on that side of the screen? Did he get shot or what?" No longer will I have to put pillows in

Micron Envision Value Line EN-710 (17 in.) CRT Conventional Monitor: Envision Monitors are good if you really need a monitor fast

Tue, 2 Oct 2001 00:29:10 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Yes, this is the monitor you see at stores with the mail in rebate bringing the total cost to somewhere around $70. And with the age old statement, you get what you pay for, you do rally get a $70 monitor. But this is not that bad of a thing if you...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Again, in a a series of DVD reviews by myself I will forgo most of the information on the movie itself, and focus on he DVD and what makes this Special Edition DVD one that should be in your collection.

The Pledge. Movie/DVD review.

Mon, 6 Aug 2001 13:14:27 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Since most people review only the movie, I am going to do both. The movie and the DVD. As we all know, DVD's contain extra materials not usually found on VHS tapes. Those can be extra scenes, outtakes, director commentary's, features on the movie,...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Now you've seen a lot of reviews on this movie, from both people who love or hate this movie. I will cover some points about the movie that made me enjoy it, and I will talk about the DVD and it's features.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - "Don't expect this to be the kind of story which goes: and then, and then, and then. What happens here will have more of that fashion magazine feel, a Vogue or Glamour magazine chaos with page numbers on every second or fifth or third page. Perfume...

Solare Sunset Resort - Neuvo Vallarta

Tue, 26 Jun 2001 17:01:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - This is about the Solare Sunset Resort (formerly the Eden Bay Sunset) more so than Puerto Vallarta. Recently we booked a trip to The Solare Sunset beach resort in Neuvo Vallarta. Neuvo is about a 20 minute bus ride from the airport in P.V., but is in...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Higgins, not really a name that brings up thoughts of glazed pork loin, sturgeon fillets, or paella, unless you live in Portland.

We decided to try out this restaurant recently, and were not disappointed at all. We arrived and were promptly...

The Watcher almost shouldn't be...

Mon, 26 Feb 2001 15:44:57 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - On the back of the DVD it said something like "If you liked Seven you'll love the watcher." Well, I love Seven and this movie does not even come close to it's style or substance. But it is a decent time filler, just don't expect too much.

Now...

Great ribs, good times...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - I had never heard of Damon's before, I had even driven past it to get somewhere many times. Then someone from the mid-west recommended it and took us out for dinner...and it was good.

Damon's is a sports bar & grill. This is an understatment...

A Great deal!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - I purchsed this burner on a whim. I have always wanted to make my own mixed CD's like I used to with tapes, and when I saw this deal I could not pass it up.

The Creative CDRW 8432 has a CD-R write speed of 8x, cd-RW speed of 4x and a read...

They have Canadian Beer!!!!

Thu, 9 Nov 2000 16:59:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - But the Canadian beer is brewed for American specs, and as a result, loses some of it's flavor. You may think this is wierd but it is true. More to come.

We stopped at Old Chicago last night, seeing the neon sign saying "110 Brews"...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - It was a cold and dark Halloween night, and the travellers were tired and sleepy. The town the pulled into seemed to crawl with freaks, then they remembered it was Halloween, so it wasn't that bad.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Having played and loved Tony Hawk Pro Skater, when I heard about part 2 coming out, I instantly thought "Why would I want it?" But just a couple weeks after it's release, I found myself down at the local video game place trading THPS for part...

Overall a great inexpensive camera

Wed, 18 Oct 2000 17:25:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - After months and months of complaining about how bad our camera was, we decided that we were in the market for a new one. But then, what do we want? A point and shoot? Or a SRL? Personally, I think a SRL would be sweet, but the ease of a P&S seemed...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - Well, back to San Francisco we went, only this time, the new Rainforest Cafe was open. So having never been there, we went. First off, the decor of the place was very cool. They had fake plants and animals everywhere, and I mean everywhere, on the...

Well, the plot itself was predictable, and you've...

Snapfish Online Store: Sure beats Longs Drugs...

Tue, 29 Aug 2000 13:29:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - I heard about Snapfish.com a while back, but didn't think I would ever use it. Then recently I had a few rolls of film to develop and thought this would be worth a shot. After all, it's cheap and they use Kodak paper so it can;t be that bad right?

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author paramchuk - I thought that at American Airlines, they removed a row or two of seats from most planes to make more room in coach. I am seriously hoping the plane I flew on last week had not yet been altered... because the amount of room was very limited. Thankfully...
