Not a Close Shave

Fri, 14 Apr 2006 19:19:03 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I waited a couple of years to get this shaver. I've been shaving for 30 years. To me, it looked like the perfect blend of form and function, at least as far as shaving is concerned. The price was a little high (hence the delay in buying it), but I...

Hewlett Packard DeskJet 5550 Inkjet Printer: Excellent Low to Medium Home Use

Thu, 25 Sep 2003 18:50:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Sheesh! How many inkjet printers are there on the market? Finding a good one is a daunting task. Add to that the desire to not pay a lot of money and the choices, while fewer, become harder. In my research I found that no one loved a particular mo...

A New Kid Favorite

Wed, 17 Apr 2002 00:42:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Nonsense! He Yelled is a wonderful book on several levels. The one thing it is not, though, is a story; although there are a couple of minor threads woven through it. But that's just fine. A story is not needed.

What you get instead are...

It's So Nice to Have a Tool Around the House

Mon, 4 Feb 2002 17:56:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Black & Decker’s Pivot Driver power screwdriver is one of those great tools you wish they had come up with years ago. It’s handy and easy to use, versatile, and inexpensive considering its value to the user. You will find yourself using this tool...

Excellent ... but short of Amazing

Thu, 17 Jan 2002 21:19:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - The reason to get DVDs, in addition to the incredible sound and picture, is to have the extras.

You want outtakes, alternate scenes, pre-production information, etc. ... well it's all here.

They take a page from Lucas and narrate...

Excellent Bargain

Thu, 27 Dec 2001 18:06:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I bought this from Circuit City recently after spending a year or more doing casual research about DVD players. The prices have been too high for my tastes, even though I'm sure this medium is here to stay. I'm glad I waited until now to buy one.

A very nice ride

Thu, 6 Sep 2001 23:39:08 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I've never really driven foreign cars very much. I was forced to rent this Camry because my car is in the shop and I'm glad for it.

The 2001 Camry provides a very nice ride.

Comfort.

I don't really like low riding cars, but...

Wow! Hot! Jumpin'! Swinnnggging!

Sat, 17 Mar 2001 02:49:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - So many of my friends can recite statistics from music albums, like who played what instrument and who wrote what song. Me? I'm like that cliche: I know what I like.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy is a band I like. A lot!

This is a hot...

Wow! Hot! Jumpin'! Swinnnggging!

Good - for what it is

Sun, 4 Mar 2001 16:35:07 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - The one thing I did not want was a gasoline powered washer. With two kids and limited garage space, I refuse to have any gasoline powered tools. This limits what you have available to you as a home owner.

This model (under a different name)...

Teeth Not as Sharp as Could Be

Tue, 27 Feb 2001 21:30:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - This is a good first effort. Hamilton presents a world similar to Alien Nation, where a very strange demographic enters the mainstream. In this case, the demographic is made up of monsters from our fantasies and nightmares: vampires, werecreatures,...

"Something Wonderful ...!"

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 13:58:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - If the Marvel Universe were to end today - and some pundits have cried for that - Earth X would be the most appropriate ending to a 60 year history of superheroes.

As it comes in what I suspect is the middle of Marvel's long life to come, it...

Not Bad/You Could Do Better

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 01:23:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I bought this not under the best of circumstances from 800.com. Now that's a place I will NEVER buy from again.

Now that time has passed, and I've used the phone for a while, I think I can offer an unbiased opinion.

Additional Opinion from Shadowpdf

Wed, 10 Jan 2001 01:32:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - In answer to questions and comments received about the MVC DC1000 I have written a second opinion on the product. Please refer to my earlier review for more details

Tektronix Phaser 850 Printer: WOW! and Double WOW!

Tue, 9 Jan 2001 01:06:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - This is some printer. But it's not for the faint of heart or weak of pocketbook. This printer will set you back anywhere from the suggested price reported by epinions ($3,750) to a little more than $4,500 (which my company paid). Don't get this for...

Convenience and Quality Abound

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 23:23:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I showed this to a co-worker today and he said "Good-bye, film!" And you know, he's right.

Digital cameras have been around for a while and they have been fun to own. But practically speaking they haven't afforded the quality of...

Perfectly Constructed

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 03:01:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Everyone probably knows that this is an action picture ... terrorists take control ... one lone man has to save the day.

It sounds trite, and I suppose it is. But this is one of the best constructed movies ever made.

And I mean...

Gets Better With Age

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 02:46:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Watching the film the other day (in letterbox, if you please), I was struck by how nearly perfect Chinatown is.

This is a film that combines talent, cinematography, costume, and a sparkling script into a package that not simply survives a...

Not Really Worth the Trip

Thu, 28 Dec 2000 14:08:34 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - NOT RECOMMENDED is listed below. This is a little harsh. It's not a bad book, but it's not really ... anything ... It has virtually no substance, nothing really to say, only a fairly cliched adventure the outcome of which is never really in doubt.

Hollywood Dynamite

Sun, 24 Dec 2000 19:19:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman! Yes, Superman. Strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth...

This Sucks in a GOOD Way

Thu, 21 Dec 2000 15:31:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - I'm no great big do-it-yourselfer. But to do the job right you need the right tools. And it this powerful vacuum is the right tool.

Make no mistake, it's not perfect. The main problem is endemic to its function: size. While the motor...

Surprise! I Like It!

Wed, 20 Dec 2000 16:37:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Sky Ghost is a Men's Adventure title from the sporadically produced Wingman series.

If you've stumbled onto this review and don't know what a Men's Adventure book is, it isn't (necessarily) a sex book. Instead Men's Adventures are...

Involving, Engaging, Surprising

Wed, 20 Dec 2000 15:31:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - There are more than 20 reviews on this book. It's hard to write anything new. What I'll try to do is add a bit of perspective in relation to other similar works. There is the slightest of spoilers buried in this review.

This Chimp's a Chump

Thu, 7 Dec 2000 02:00:30 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - My copy of The Monkey's Raincoat has a starburst on the cover proclaiming that this title was voted one of the century's best mysteries. If so, it must be at the bottom of that list.

Elvis Cole - hero and smart alecky private dick - is an...

Great Fun for Busy Executives

Mon, 30 Oct 2000 01:06:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowpdf - Oddly enough, this place isn't just loved by busy businessmen looking to play a short 18 hole course. Cooper Colony gets a lot of French Canadians during the winter months. The locals also frequent this course.

What you get in the Cooper...
