Over Time, People Will Always Lose to the House?

Thu, 15 Jul 2004 23:48:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Bringing Down the House is a story about a group of M.I.T. students who turned the high risks of gambling into a favorable method of beating the house. They developed a game-plan that relied on teamwork and a more detailed version of card-counting. In...

A Whole New Perspective on Baseball...

Mon, 12 Jul 2004 01:02:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - As a baseball fan, more specifically a Seattle Mariners fan, the past few years have been filled with grief and bitterness. A miraculously 116-game season was immediately followed by two relatively mediocre 93-win seasons in which the Oakland Athletics...

Worth the Money!

Tue, 6 Jan 2004 21:07:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - After doing some grueling physical labor over the summer, I decided that I wanted to indulge in surround sound. However, I am a college student and like many college students, I am financially challenged. So I had to settle for something cheap. I...

Talk about Entertainment!!

Tue, 6 Jan 2004 05:23:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I bought and read this book by Dan Brown this past summer of 2003. A friend of mine recommended it and I also heard Dan Patrick of ESPN talk about its ascent up the New York Times best seller list. I'm not much of a reader, but due to its popularity (and...

Overrated: Am I the Only Person Who Didn't Like This Movie?

Tue, 6 Jan 2004 04:14:58 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Before I even get to the movie, I'd like to say that I haven't read the books so any references between the movie and the book cannot be considered true. After seeing this movie twice, I have come to the conclusion that this movie is completely...

Richard Gere isn't in a chick-flick?!?

Sun, 27 Jan 2002 19:44:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Richard Gere plays John Klein, a reporter for the Washington Post who, 2 years after his wife's death, strangely ends up in Point Pleasant, WV. He doesn't know what he's doing there or even how he got there. Upon his arrival, unexplainable phenomenons...

The Truth

Thu, 24 Jan 2002 18:23:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Susanna Kaysen writes Girl, Interrupted not as an author merely telling a story, but as a former patient, telling an autobiographical version of life inside a mental institution. At the young age of 18, Kaysen was sent to McLean Hospital, a psychiatric...

Good While It Lasts....

Wed, 5 Dec 2001 22:01:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I don't have that much money, so buying a membership to the local Y wasn't at the top of my things-to-do-over-the-summer list. And besides, it was during the summer, and the air conditioning system doesn't work all that well. So I decided that I had to...

HP Pavilion 6740C: not that good

Mon, 12 Feb 2001 16:19:57 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I bought this computer last August, right before I left for college. I didn't have a computer last year, and had to use my roommates constantly...so it was cool that I was getting my own computer this time around. However, I have been having...

Tekno the Robotic Puppy

Mon, 2 Oct 2000 22:21:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Its not exactly Sony's Aibo, but it isn't exactly $2500 either. Tekno the Robotic Puppy is a much cheaper and simpler version of Aibo. It cost me about $50 and from what you can expect from a robot, I think its worth more for the dollar.

I...

The Replacements

Mon, 2 Oct 2000 00:33:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - The Replacement isn't really the kind of movie I expected Keanu Reeves to be in, especially after the Matrix (but then again, I guess he was in Bill & Ted's adventures, so...). The movie had sort of a "Necessary Roughness"-type theme in...

Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical

Sat, 30 Sep 2000 16:59:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I bought the Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical about a month ago and it has done wonders for me. I just bought a new computer and the mouse that came with it was ridiculous. It was pretty generic and it didn't even have the wheel in the middle that allows...

AltecACS54-5 piece speaker system

Sat, 30 Sep 2000 14:20:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I bought the Altec Lansing ACS54 about a month ago. This 5 piece computer speaker system is awesome!!! It has a 4-inch sub-woofer and 4-speakers which provide for surround sound. It only cost me about $85 or so which may seem like much for computer...

Case Western Reserve University

Sat, 30 Sep 2000 00:06:22 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - I'm going to start by giving a little background of myself. I'll start by saying that I'm a second-year student at the University of Michigan. I spend my summers at home in Alliance, Ohio. I lived in Cleveland Heights, Ohio for 16 years and for about 8...

Cider House Rules

Fri, 29 Sep 2000 23:37:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Ok, first of all, I am a guy, and as a guy, I tend not to emotional involve myself in any movie whether it be a horror film or a chick-flick. But let me tell you, this movie is pretty sad. I'm not saying it was one of those movies where you would only...

Me, Myself, and Irene

Fri, 29 Sep 2000 16:22:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - Yet another funny creation from the Farrelly Brothers. If you like blatant humor, then you will definitely laugh your a** off. If not, then you might want to stay away from this one.

Jim Carrey plays mild-mannered Charlie, a Rhode Island State...

X-MEN!!!! FINALLY!!!!

Fri, 29 Sep 2000 00:58:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - If you ever had a single comic book in your entire life, it should be X-Men. Possibly the best and most popular comic book ever written (in my opinion it is), comic book fanatics have been waiting years and years for an X-Men movie to come out. And...

Russell the Gladiator

Fri, 29 Sep 2000 00:19:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - After seeing "The Insider" and "L.A. Confidential", if you're still not familiar as to who Russell Crowe is, I guarantee you will be after this one!

Crowe plays Maximus (very well I might add), a general-turned slave of the...

Mad Season

Thu, 28 Sep 2000 22:54:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author signetClassic - First off, this is a GREAT album. I have been waiting for Matchbox20 (or is it Matchbox TWENTY?) to come out with another album and FINALLY, after a long 4 years, they come out with Mad Season. Boy, did they pull through.
