Not Really High...More Like Buzzed

Thu, 20 Jun 2002 03:26:48 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - Being a fan of Method Man and Redman, I was naturally inclined to give How High a rent from the video store. I'm a big fan of comedies about marijuana, and figured the mix of the two would provide for a fun hour and a half.

After seeing the...

Return of The ROCK

Thu, 20 Jun 2002 03:00:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - When Weezer returned with their "Green Album" in 2001, the music world was reintroduced to the infectious melodies and guitar pop which had made them so famous in the early 90's. However, the disc was considered somewhat generic by many hardcore fans...

Weezer Returns (Briefly) With Green Album

Thu, 24 May 2001 21:37:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - Let me first say that I am a die hard Weezer fan and have been anxiously awaiting a new release from since the release of the masterful Pinkerton. If you haven't been up with Weezer since the days of "Buddy Holly" and "Undone-The Sweater Song," here's...

Power-Pop Perfection

Wed, 14 Mar 2001 22:05:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author springhill -

Unless you were in a cave in the mid-nineties, you almost definitely remember Weezer. "Undone-The Sweater Song" was a sort of novelty hit which caught the attention of radio stations everywhere. They followed it up with the catchy "Buddy Holly",...

Wed, 14 Mar 2001 16:32:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author springhill -

What can I say about these fantastic electric guitars which has not already been repeated a million times? They look fantastic, play like a dream, and sound amazing. Here's my breakdown of my particular instrument.

The Silver Bullet--Off Target, But Tolerable

Wed, 14 Mar 2001 16:20:41 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author springhill -

As I continue to embark on my quest to review every beer I have ever consumed (and their are many), I've found myself tending to write the same thing about a certain class of beers. Yes, all of the beers most Americans think of when you say beer...

NyQuil--When You Need A Good Night's Sleep

Mon, 12 Mar 2001 16:19:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - In my opinion, the worst part about having a cold is being up all night coughing and sneezing. No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to get any amount of sleep. This makes the next day worse because not only are you sick, you are tired as...

Popeye's--A Louisiana Legend

Fri, 9 Mar 2001 21:16:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - I am from the New Orleans area, and back home, Popeye's is very much a part of the local culture. If you have ever been to Mardi Gras, you know what I mean. The streets are littered with about 2,000,000 empty boxes of Popeye's. It's by far the best...

Icehouse--Another Uninspired Beer From Miller

Fri, 9 Mar 2001 14:37:46 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - When I first began seeing the commercials for Icehouse beer, I was really impressed. It looked cool, and the whole “ice-brewing” thing was just beginning to become popular. Shortly thereafter, I picked up a 6-pack, and brought it home with high...

Arbor Mist- The Boone's Alternative

Fri, 9 Mar 2001 14:20:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author springhill -

After having consumed many bottles of Boone's Farm in the last few years, I was recently interested by a new set of bottles in the cheap liquor aisle at my local grocery store. Sitting right next to the Boone's Farm and the Mad Dog were several...

Miller Lite- Simply Below Average

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 18:09:35 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - I used to really like the Miller Lite "Dick" commericals. They were really funny and I wish they would go back to that format instead of the stuff they've been doing lately. They used to make me *want* to drink Miller Lite beer.

However, as...

Bud Light- An American Standard

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 17:54:40 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - Easily one of the most popular and widely consumed beers in the United States, Bud Light is almost synonymous with beer in many areas.

In my opinion, Bud Light is a slightly watered down version of regular Budweiser. This isn't necessarily...

We Will Ride The Rising Tide

Wed, 7 Mar 2001 17:38:04 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - Many fans of Sunny Day Real Estate were a bit suprised by the direction the band took with it's comeback record, How it Feels To Be Something On. The crunching guitars, fierce drumming, and blistering guitar were largely gone, replaced by an emphasis on...

Sega Dreamcast Grey Console: Dreamcast: A Bargain For 2001

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 19:13:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - As many of you may have heard, Sega has decided to stop producing Sega Dreamcast consoles as of March of 2001. While new games will be produced for the rest of the year, and released into 2002, this move officially signals the impending death of the...

One of the Better OTC Cold Medicines Out There

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 18:27:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - In general, I'm fairly skeptical of OTC cold medicines. For the most part, I've found that very few of them offer any kind of real relief. Many of them promise to relieve multiple symptoms but in fact do almost nothing.

Suprisingly, I did...

Low on Cash? Need Beer? A Tolerable Cheap Beer.

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 16:43:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - If there ever was a college beer, it would have to be Natural Light. Natural Light (or "Nattie" as my friends and I refer to it) is sort of the "beer of last resort" when the cashflow is low but the need for beer is high.

To be honest, this...

Hot Damn! is a lot of Fun.

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 16:29:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill -

Let me get started by saying that I love doing shots. You name it, I'll shoot it. There's a certain fun in getting your friends together, clinking together a couple of shot glasses, and downing the whole thing at once.

If you're...

Audiogalaxy File Agent: Need a Napster Alternative?-Look No Further

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 01:01:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - When my school recently banned the Napster file sharing service from our network, I decided to check out the alternatives to see if any of them were worth dealing with. To be honest, almost all of them weren't. Most of them are hard to deal with and...

Rolling Rock- A Unique American Beer

Tue, 6 Mar 2001 00:37:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - Rolling Rock is a rather curious brand of beer. Upon first glance you might assume that it is an import, with it's painted on label and green bottle. But actually, RR is made right here in the USA, hailing from Latrobe, PA.

Another curious...

Radiohead Returns With Kid A

Mon, 5 Mar 2001 22:01:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author springhill - After the amazing critical and to some extent commercial success of 1997's masterpiece OK Computer, Radiohead fans could only wonder what direction the band would take on it's next album. After all, the jump from The Bends to Ok Computer was...
