An upper class steak house

Thu, 15 Mar 2001 15:01:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - A few months ago I got a coupon in the mail for Cripple Creek Taphouse. It came in a pack with at least 15 restaurant coupons for places I hadn't been yet, but this place sounded different. I had heard people talk about it, but the closest I had come...

Great course for the distance and money

Tue, 13 Mar 2001 19:35:49 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Last Sunday I played the trophy club for the first time this season. The weather was perfect, the sun was out, and I was able to get a tee time just by showing up. Though I would recommend calling ahead as we get into the peak season, it is usually not...

An entire toolbox in my pocket

Sat, 5 Aug 2000 15:07:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 -

I hate carrying a ton of tools around with me. While working on the road here in Atlanta I oftentimes have to park a couple blocks away from a building and walk all of my tools and equipment to the job. Seeing as my job includes electronics as...

GEW: Behead the Burger King

Mon, 10 Jul 2000 21:09:10 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Entering into my first Epinions write-off has my whole body trembling and my stomach churning. Or maybe it’s just that I had to eat at Burger King less than a day ago. In any case I am proud (and a little nervous) to be joined by some of Epinions...

What the pros use

Sun, 9 Jul 2000 11:01:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Looking for a new drill can be a daunting task, with a few dozen models in even the smallest store and better than a hundred in the larger ones. How do you know which is the best? For me it was easy.

I visit a number of construction sites...

Treeloot.com: Am I really this bored???

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Last Monday at work, (yes the Monday before the Fourth of July that everyone else had off) There was absolutely nothing to do so I spent a good chunk of the day on the Internet. At one point I came across Treeloot. It looked easy, and didn't have a...

Mon, 3 Jul 2000 22:44:57 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - I have been using the i1000 for about a year now and have very few complaints. The direct connect feature is what makes this phone stand out from any normal cell phone. I love the ability to talk to any of our techs at the touch of a button. Should...

Sun, 25 Jun 2000 13:09:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - I was shocked to receive a food processor as a Christmas present a few years back, but luckily (bad son that I am) I unwrapped it as soon as it came in the mail and was just in time to test it for my Christmas dinner party (maybe my mom is smarter than I...

Webvan: Good bye grocery store

Sun, 18 Jun 2000 17:52:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - At first I missed the screaming kids, long lines and rude service, but I'm getting over it quickly.

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 21:25:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Get ready to laugh until you hurt! From the moment you walk into the small dining area and receive your new identity to the time you say goodbye to everyone you met, you will have a blast. Agatha’s has to be the best dinner theater I have been to. I...

The Hooch Golf Club

Wed, 14 Jun 2000 20:13:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Many a day my usual foursome has skipped out of work early for a quick 18 at the Hooch. And quick it can be, I think our record is two and a half hours. At a par 61 4101 yards, they have cut out all the par fives (and my best chance at birdie) and...

Seeing as they cleaned up Times Square

Mon, 12 Jun 2000 22:20:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Though Times Square never held a candle to this place. After a day of exploring I stopped at my hotel's bar for dinner and the free wine that a coupon on my bed when I checked in had promised. While talking to the others sitting at the bar I met a...

Get lost in Amsterdam

Mon, 12 Jun 2000 21:45:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - I wandered off the train in Amsterdam alone, without so much as a tour book. All I really knew was that it was supposed to be a beautiful and fun city, full of pickpockets and drug dealers. I bought a Lonely Planet guide with my visa and set off to...

Good enough for a New Yorker

Mon, 12 Jun 2000 19:57:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Being from the northeast I am a bit of a pizza snob and don't have high hopes for any pizza place my friends rave about. It's a good thing I'm not too much of a snob, I might have missed Fellini's. I liked the place as soon as we walked in. The pizza...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Last weekend it poured rain and my usual foursome all cancelled. Luckily we were able to meet up online and heckle each other at St. Andrews old course.

Travelocity Flight Reservations: I fired my travel agent

Mon, 7 Feb 2000 21:19:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - Great site and so easy to use. My company travel agent came up with a fare of around $600.00 for a last minute flight to Arkansas last fall. Well I didn't think that sounded right so I started looking around on the computer, within 10 minutes I had...

Great ribs, poor service

Sun, 6 Feb 2000 04:41:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author patrick860 - OK, they were the best ribs I have had in the Atlanta area, but were they worth the trouble?
