Stand Back -- My Coffee Addiction Has Just Been Taken to a Whole New Level

Sun, 7 Dec 2003 23:16:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - First, I should explain that I am not necessarily a connoisseur of coffee. However, over the last few years I have experimented with various types of coffee makers and blends of coffee, and my caffeine addiction has grown exponentially. Though I...

It's a conversation starter! It looks neat! Oh Yeah, and It tones your abs!

Thu, 4 Dec 2003 19:59:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - The first time I saw a BOSU ball, I had to laugh at it. It looks like a deformed and stunted version of a Swiss exercise ball. Then my husband and I kept injuring our ankles in martial arts, and someone recommended the BOSU for strengthening our ankles...

A Less Annoying, 25-Year Version of "Groundhog Day"

Wed, 3 Dec 2003 20:02:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - Replay, by Ken Grimwood, is sort of like a greatly extended version of the movie Groundhog Day. Instead of reliving one day over and over again, the central character replays his life from age 18 to 43. The book opens with a brief dialogue...

General Reviews of Cricket Communications Wireless Customer Service: Great Option in Lieu of Landline Phone

Sat, 17 May 2003 16:38:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - I purchased my Cricket phone in the Denver area around March 2002. I had been involved in a personal crusade against our local telephone provider, Qwest, and wanted to permanently say goodbye to the behemoth. Through Qwest, I had a no-frills landline...

I Won't Let it Out of My Sight

Wed, 14 May 2003 19:03:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - Wow. Just... wow. I was a pretty dorky teenager and never really caught onto the Walkman/Discman thing. I've been a reader all my life and have always preferred to have a book in my hands than almost anything else. All of that changed recently when I...

Hello, Vacuum Brewing; Goodbye, Coffee Filters!

Wed, 14 May 2003 18:14:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - Honestly, I have to admit I put this item on my wedding registry on a whim. It's easy to get carried away with wedding registries... "Whee, isn't it fun to put things in your shopping bag that you may not need?"

That said, when my Bodum Santos...

Farewell to the Line Between Male and Female

Wed, 8 Nov 2000 19:08:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - It’s really too bad the Chinese opera in the 1930’s didn’t allow females to play the parts of female characters. So much human anguish might have been saved. (oh, yeah, and the whole Communism thing, too.) This film, directed by Kaige Chen, provides a...

My Key Broke off in the Lock

Fri, 11 Aug 2000 22:47:40 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - My experience with Keybank began when I moved to Denver with my fiancé. He had moved here a few weeks earlier and had established an account with Keybank, mainly because there was a branch location near our home and the office. After I arrived, we...

Will it really change your life?

Mon, 7 Aug 2000 19:34:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - When my department at work was having major problems meeting our printing needs, we were prepared to buy our own, dedicated printer/copier for our end of the office. I am on the marketing team for several real estate investment (i.e. $$$$$$) brokers...

Is this a Comedy?

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 15:31:14 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - Yesterday I was in couch potato mode, and this happened to be one of the few movies in stock. From watching the promos months ago in theaters, I kind of knew what to expect, but I really wanted to give it a chance-- after all, Sam Jackson, Saffron...

Morcheeba has the grooooove.

Wed, 26 Jul 2000 00:32:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - I'm usually the wimpy kind of chick who doesn't buy anything harder than Jewel, but after hearing the first half of this album I broke down and let the craziness wash right over me. The vocals are smoother than Fiona Apple, and the two or three other...

Subtle in the Best Ways

Sun, 23 Jul 2000 21:52:01 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - Alias Grace was a surprise to me, one I'd not heard of, and I am so grateful she fell into my hands just in time for a long flight to Alaska. Atwood has mastered that rare "subtle-without-seeming-subtle" ability with this book. While she...

Make sure you don't have to be anywhere...

Sun, 23 Jul 2000 21:43:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pillowphat - This book was one of those "nice-looking spines" in the bookstore, and I just felt compelled to buy it. I peeked into it on the bus ride home and was already attached to it by the time I got home. Everything I can think of is sprinkled into...
