Spend Christmas with Mitch and his Gang

Fri, 1 Dec 2000 14:51:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - My childhood was very odd. I was a child in the sixties, during a time when the Vietnam war raged, the Beatles were booming and the civil rights movement was in full swing.

It's the motion of the ocean...

Wed, 29 Nov 2000 20:11:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I know that none of you can possibly relate, but I have way too much stuff in my bathroom. My shelves are overflowing with items that I saw in the store and just had to have - some I use, some I don't, some are about a hundred years old. Actually, there...

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 18:37:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - The 6th Day is cinematic genius. Director Roger Spottiswoode has created a ballet on screen that will surely place him far in the lead for this year's Academy Award. International star Arnold Schwarzenegger puts on a stellar performance, his...

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 16:46:32 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Murder is the least disturbing thing in this true-life drama of fantasy, sexuality, mental disorder and pure evil. The unusual case of Pauline Parker and Juliet Hulme rocked their home country of New Zealand in 1954, and comes to life on the screen in...

Pies to die for, Waiters you want to kill

Mon, 27 Nov 2000 18:46:32 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I have been the connoisseur of great pies for most of my life. Within the last several years, I've discovered that Baker's Square is as good at baking pies as I am good at eating them. Well, almost as good. For work parties, family get-togethers,...

How I avoided a snot-filled Thanksgiving Day

Mon, 27 Nov 2000 18:02:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - The plan sounded quite simple. Drive for half a day from here to Chicago, spend Thanksgiving there with my Significant Other, and then drive back on Sunday. However, on the previous Sunday I came down with a horrible cold. Stuffy, coughing, sneezing,...

Wed, 22 Nov 2000 15:32:37 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Let me tell ya a little story 'bout a man named Jed...you know the rest.

Mon, 20 Nov 2000 19:24:58 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - At first glance...and even into the first hour...this movie seems as if it's a hard-hitting tale of two teens who were careless, and about the real-life problems of the resulting pregnancy. Darcy Elliot (Molly Ringwald) is the editor of the school paper...

King abandons horror

Mon, 20 Nov 2000 15:27:59 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Stephen King is tired of writing horror...the kind of horror that has kept me awake many a night waiting for the attack of the "'Salem's Lot" vampires or walking quickly by "Christine"-like red convertibles. It's apparent in many...

I looked like a horse's Ash....

Fri, 17 Nov 2000 21:32:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Have you ever seen a photo of Mary Kay Ash? She lives in a world of pink Cadillacs, big hair, heavy foundation...and extremely scary eyebrows. Unfortunately, I did not see her picture before using the Mary Kay Eyebrow Pencil or I would have just chucked...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl -
Review Topic: Accommodations

This South Caroling plantation may be no match for Scarlett O'Hara's Tara, but I certainly felt like the belle of the Wilkes barbecue flitting around the Kingston Plantation in Myrtle Beach.

Tue, 14 Nov 2000 14:46:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I could write about a million comedy movies...my favorites are probably some of your favorites, too.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - If you ask me, the entire point of living is to make sure that you and the ones you love are comfortable at all times. We spend a lot of time working toward getting heat/air conditioning, food to eat, a secure place to live, and to remain healthy. We...

Thu, 9 Nov 2000 19:33:57 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I grew up in an all-white neighborhood, and my only interactions with those outside my personal WASP demographic was through movies and television. I remember when it was acceptable to portray African-Americans as true to their stereotypes: "Sanford...

Tue, 7 Nov 2000 18:52:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Now that I'm an adult, I only look at butts when I chose to. This hasn't always been the case, however...one of my first memories as a child was being forced to keep my mother company while she changed my sister's diaper. This is definitely not my...

Thu, 2 Nov 2000 16:58:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I don't know what's wrong with these kids today. The music is loud, it has strange words, and now each song is only thirty seconds long...and those are the good points. Short Music for Short People is just the thing for this world in which our...

Wed, 1 Nov 2000 20:05:42 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - Let's face it, we buy lipstick to make our lips look more sensual - more kissable.

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - When James Conway said "Hey, kids, let's do a famous Edgar Allen Poe classic for television," everyone in the room should have buried him alive. As it was, Conway (director of many television series including "Star Trek: Voyager" and...

Mon, 30 Oct 2000 19:08:57 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - I look like a dog. I look like a basset hound with those sad, droopy eyes...and it's all Isaac Newton's fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't spend all this time analyzing the effect of gravity on my face. I stand in front of the...

Mon, 30 Oct 2000 18:01:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pilotgirl - There's nothing worse in life than waking up in the middle of the night, soaking wet. It's happened to me, on more than one occasion.
