Epinions Recent Reviews for prattguy

Inexpensive and full of features

Thu, 10 Feb 2005 19:19:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - If you haven't discovered the world of digital cameras, I recommend you do so. If you haven't yet bought a computer, I recommend you commit yourself to a nuthouse. In this day and age, with technology becoming what it is, cameras such as this can be...

If IWS is your choice, Mares is the way to go

Sun, 28 Sep 2003 20:04:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - There's not much to say about integrated weights (IWS). Either you like them or you don't. Personally, I prefer them as compared to a weight belt. I bought a Mares jubilee BC, which included the IWS. Everything works as designed, and I'm sure you will...

great gun for moderate fish

Sun, 28 Sep 2003 19:54:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - If you don't see 8 foot long tuna in front of you, or huge grouper circling around you, this should be the gun for you. This is not for the deep-sea spearfisherman. I'd say it's more for the moderate-sea fisherman, hunting fish of up to 50-60 lbs (I s...

Resource guide to a potential lifesaver

Thu, 17 Jul 2003 12:54:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I am probably the most pessimistic person out there. That's why I used to scoff and roll my eyes at...

Great Book for Learning the Origins of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Tue, 15 Jul 2003 12:42:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - If you have any interest in organized fighting or jiu-jitsu, you've almost undoubtedly heard of the...

Great reference for learning additional skills

Tue, 15 Jul 2003 12:32:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - First off, let me start by saying that if you're wanting to learn Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ), you can...

Look elsewhere for an MP3 player

Sat, 20 Jul 2002 18:44:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I received this mp3 player from a friend who no longer uses his. Being that I wanted to upgrade to a smaller one and since mine held only 32 megs, he sold it to me for a great price, and I thought I would be happy with it. Turns out, I was wrong...

This vehicle is incredible

Wed, 29 Aug 2001 18:33:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Let me start off by saying that this is the first time I've been an SUV owner. So far, I've owned three vehicles, all Pontiacs. Finally after 6 years of college and three years in the workforce, I decided that it was time for me to pay myself back...

Big budgets pull through

Wed, 6 Jun 2001 13:42:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Dazzling effects, suspenseful plot, beautiful scenery, superb acting--what else can you ask for? In the case of Gladiator, nothing--it's all delivered right there for you in a compact, 2 1/2 hour epic drama.

If you're a fan of dramas, action...

Use only for short, small jobs

Sun, 3 Jun 2001 14:41:46 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I bought this drill off a table at Sears, where they were on clearance. I figured that since they were so cheap, I may as well stock up with a drill for myself, even though living in an apartment doesn't much warrant the need for one.

So,...

Still collecting my thoughts

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 23:09:38 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Wow, I just finished this one. I'm still in bewilderment as to what to think. Watching the Academy Awards (and how I sit through that show, I don't know), I knew that there had to be something about this show that set it up for so many awards...

Bissell 1690 Vacuum: Worked well on what I needed

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 19:11:21 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I was anxious to purchase a steamcleaner soon after my puppy arrived in the apartment. Not knowing which, I went to a local store and was quite shocked at the prices. After hopping on the internet, I was able to purchase the Bissell at over half off...

Flat out horrible

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 19:01:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I saw this in the movie rental store, and after reading it's jacket about a guy who tries to solve a group of murders committed against serial killers, I figured that this movie would compare a lot to Boondock Saints, one of my favorites. I soon learned...

Great phone

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 17:13:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Something about the Panasonic line of phones. I've always liked the way they look, but I never had the money to buy one. Finally, I found an "open box" discounted phone at Best Buy, and immediately purchased it, not really knowing much about the...

Arguably my favorite of all time

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 16:27:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Why do I say arguably? Well, it's hard to compare BS to Gladiator, a film with probably 10 times the budget, and of course, ten times the resources. But I have to say, I can watch BS and still not find one part that I can say "OK, here comes a slow...

They work

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 16:11:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Well, I have to admit, I only bought these in order that I can crank up my Pioneer receiver when watching my Elton John VCD and not blast my neighbors out of their apts, as well. So, I don't know how much you can say about a set of headphones--either...

Another great Pioneer product

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 15:59:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I've been a follower of Pioneer since my first CD player purchase 10 years ago. I bought it off the shelf as the demo, and never had a single problem with it. Since then, I've filtered out all other brands of electronic audio equipment until I have...

Should have been much better

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 15:45:49 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - I feel sorry for the mountain climbers who had to sit through this one. Even though I've never even donned a pair of skis in my life, I have to admit that even I could hardly swallow most of this movie. And especially for those who have climbed before...

As Good as Silence . . . ?

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 15:31:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - A friend, fascinated with Hannibal and Silence . . . suggested I watch this, as he was sure I would enjoy it. Being a fan of Silence of the Lambs--and having not yet viewed Hannibal--I figured I could relax and enjoy the movie. As I did.

Not Pratt's best

Mon, 23 Oct 2000 23:45:39 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Of the two public courses in Pratt (not including the private CC) this one's not my favorite. However, I will say that it provides a longer game, but you are provided that at a cost.

One of the first things you'll notice is the open-ness of...

Not Country Club quality

Mon, 23 Oct 2000 23:30:20 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - First of all, understand that Kingman's course isn't 18 holes, it's only 9. Not a difficult nine, either. It would fit in perfectly with most of the public courses around the area, but I just don't see it being the quality necessary for a country...

Great for the average golfer

Mon, 23 Oct 2000 23:20:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - If you're in Beaumont and looking for an affordable, somewhat easy golf course, Rabbit Run is the one you'll want to play. The hardest thing about Rabbit Run would probably be finding the turn-off to the dirt road that gets you to the entrance--I've...

Here we go again

Mon, 23 Oct 2000 23:08:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - There are millions of football fans out there--that's a given. But is there enough fans to make up for all the football movies that still don't give an accurate enough depiction of what it's really like. Well, I think that one comes close--the Program...

Am I the only one that liked it?

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 14:13:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - Reading some of the other epinions regarding Mission to Mars, I feel that perhaps I need to watch this movie again in order to realize how cheesy this movie must have been.

But I'll refrain from that and offer what I hope can still be an...

Great stadium

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 13:53:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author prattguy - If you didn't attend a football game at SBS until after 1998, you won't comprehend the remarkable changes made at the stadium that previously had made it one of the WORST in the conference, perhaps west of the Mississippi. Before the remodeling, the...
