Mon, 24 Sep 2001 00:25:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - Around four or five years ago, I decided that catching a ballgame at some of the historic parks before Corporatation Field took it's place would be a good thing to do.

If your from New England, don't stop reading yet. I'm going to be fair...

Another One Fishy!

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 15:33:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - My son Frank loves aquariums. Living Seas is a very good "microaquarium". It's not SeaWorld, but SeaWorld's not Disney, either.

He's two, and very smart. Not just because he's my boy, but because he picks up things very quickly. Daddy...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - Everyone told me that it wasn't worth the wait in line. I got to MGM early one morning and found out that the line was only 10 minutes, so I left my wife and 2year old (screaming that he wanted to ride, too) and got in line.

Now, I'm not the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - Disney with a two year old is different than Disney any other way. I've been to Disney about 10 times, so I know it pretty well. Here's a two year old's review of the "Maelstrom":

First, we ride on the Giraffe Boats. We go up the water...

TTA is "Classic Magic Kingdom"

Mon, 5 Mar 2001 14:58:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I don't understand how anyone could say something bad about this ride. It is unpretentious, uncrowded, relaxing, and most of all "history".

It doesn't have the glamour of the new rides. It isn't very fast. No steep drops. It was built a...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - If you are between the ages of 29 and 39, you probably know the Preamble to the Constitution of the United States, but only if you sing it. You probably know all about Bill, sittin' here on Capitol Hill. The shot heard around the world (it was the...

Phoenix is HOT!

Sun, 30 Jul 2000 22:58:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - My company just returned from Phoenix for our summer sales meeting. Summer in Arizona is not a good idea. I think Phoenix is about 1 mile from the sun. It was 119 degrees upon arrival. The lowest setting on my oven is 120. You get the idea.

Worth the trip

Wed, 19 Jul 2000 10:39:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - About a year ago, I had a meeting in DC. I decided to drive from NJ to DC (about 5 hours) rather than fly. So I left early in the morning, heading south. I was driving along, when I saw the familiar brown sign for Fort McHenry NM. Literally, jamming...

Mon, 10 Jul 2000 13:27:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I've stayed at the WL twice, and I love it. I love the "National Park Inns" feeling (I've seen two of them, and they are not this grand). I love the Arts and Crafts decor. I love the fire places in 95 degree weather. I love the wildflower...

No Sir, I don't like it.

Mon, 10 Jul 2000 13:05:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - My wife and I took my son to WDW for his second birthday. We thought that Coronado Springs would be "cute" and somewhat affordable, since we are going to return in December. This was not the case.

Let me organize my complaints:

My Favorite NJ Day

Fri, 2 Jun 2000 10:24:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - During the summer, my favorite way to spend the day in NJ is at a NJ Cardinals game. The Cards play at Skylands Park at the intersection of 15 and 206. They are the Triple A affiliate of the St Louis Cardinals, and a great family day at the...

Wed, 31 May 2000 20:31:55 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - That's what I said to my wife when the credits started rolling. I watched this movie for two hours, and I couldn't tell you why any of it happened. I'm a pretty smart guy, but I was clueless at the end. I looked at my wife and I said "It's...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - My company held an awards meeting in Maui last week. As part of the festivities, they arranged a "sport fishing" charter for us. One of the guys that I work with and myself also arranged our own charter, just in case.

The two of us...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I work as an engineer for a software company. We are each given 2 600/600E's. I have had my 600's for almost a year without any issues. They have good screens, large keyboards for typing, and pretty good battery life.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I was watching Ren and Stimpy from the original 6 episode in 1991. At the time, it was the funniest damn thing I'd ever seen. John Kricsfalusi is a genius. Log. Bubble in the tub. The whole Tex Avery lunacy. Happy Happy Joy Joy. Come on, That's...

Wed, 16 Feb 2000 15:16:41 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I think that Monster.com is a double edged sword. First of all, let me say that I have used Monster for years, and I have never directly gotten a job from a website.

Here are the good points:

A.) If you are a technical...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - Any visitor to the Bay Area would be sorely missing out if they passed up the opportunity to visit Muir Woods National Monument. Any visitor to San Francisco is compelled by nature to drive the Golden Gate Bridge, and Muir Woods is the prize on the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I had dinner at Della Femina in Sag Harbor, LI last July. One of the guys from work arranged for the office to gather here on night. We sat at a table for several hours, our every whim catered to, without a single thing going wrong. Not the food, not...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - A very educated friend once told me that the best restaurants won't bring you a check until you ask for it. North Beach Restaurant is one such place.

My group of 16 sat and occupied a table for 4 hours without a funny look, or any concern for...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author santonucci - I just completed a business trip to San Fran. During my stay, I ate at Gaylord's twice. I really like Indian food, and gaylord's has the reputation as SF's best.
