Stimulates both the brain and the body

Sat, 17 Jan 2009 17:50:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - We just got this for our now 4 month old over christmas. Although she was initially too small for it, she grew into it pretty quickly. She is totally fascinated with it. Even though it doesn't have as many toys as some of the...

Felt Cheated

Fri, 12 Sep 2008 04:27:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - First of all, Robin Goldstein, the author of this book, organized a stunt that tricked Wine Spectator into giving a fake restaurant an award. Kudos to him for that.Unfortunately, he should have applied his critical eye to the cover of his book...

The only way to travel

Wed, 30 Apr 2008 03:59:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Having endured countless hours of delays and lost baggage via the regular carriers in the skies, it is refreshing to find an airline that actually works. While I, too, have heard the news about the passengers stuck on the runway, this review is about my...

Become a sommelier

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 13:47:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I feel like I know a decent amount about wine. Not necessarily tasting or having a good palate, but in having a good knowledge of where wines come from and what the different processes are used in making it. Then again, every month I learn a bunch of...

What bang for the buck

Sat, 12 Apr 2008 19:57:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - My wife has been getting on me to get a new TV since our old one is almost 20 years old. We decided to go the cheapest route and bought the Vizio through Costco. Setting up was pretty easy and it hooked up the Playstation without any problems. The...

Dell's problems?

Sat, 12 Apr 2008 19:48:31 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - In my household, we have 3 Dell computers. A desktop, a Latitude and this Inspiron. For some reason, we've been having a lot of problems with the Inspiron. Let me list them. First, there was the battery recall. I didn't really want to switch the...

Snug and Safe

Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:36:53 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Previous to getting a helmet, I felt like I have never truly feared skiing on any terrain. I was able to ski through trees and through chutes, but since I got my nice new Giro G9 helmet, it feels like the difference between night and day. For better or...

Any mountain, any day

Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:19:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I love these skis. I just got them at the end of last year and have had only a limited experience with them, but they work great through everything. I took them on some early season groomers, a little powder, some steeps and some bumps and they...

Behind the times

Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:09:15 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Michael Crichton, who has always prided himself on being hip to the next big issue, has now found himself hopeless behind the times in this dull thud of a book. It is a pedantic and hopelessly unbelievable product from a once prolific author who is so...

works well at first, then destroys your wines.

Fri, 4 May 2007 14:36:04 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - We bought this wine chiller after our failed foray in online shopping for our previous wine chiller. We got it for about 200 dollars at BevMo in California. Basically, we got what we were looking for. This is a nice looking, brushed silver wine...

Good Sushi in nice area

Fri, 4 May 2007 14:13:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Sushi of Naples has the poor fortune to be situated 2 miles down from Koi in Seal Beach. Otherwise, it's a great restaurant especially for a casual dinner with friends. I have sat at the sushi bar and also at the tables and the service has always been...

Dining on the Water

Fri, 4 May 2007 14:02:25 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Walking into Khoury's is like walking into my memories of food from the 70's. There are mismatched glasses, old tablecloths, dusty curtains and waiters in very old looking uniforms. The food was unspectacular, the fish dry and I think Red Lobster...

poor man's wine fridge

Fri, 16 Mar 2007 20:21:56 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - It seems that this is just a standard mini-fridge repackaged as a wine refrigerator. I was taken in by the price and now wish I just shelled out the extra money to get a better wine refrigerator. First of all, when it came in, it was missing one of...

Awesome epic fantasy

Thu, 21 Sep 2006 16:07:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I don't even know how to begin to write about this book, let alone this series. This is going to be THE STANDARD for epic fantasy in the next 100 years. I've read Tolkien and the modern greats like George RR Martin and Robert Jordan, but Steven Erikson...

Great Ride

Tue, 19 Sep 2006 17:21:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I just leased my Volvo XC90 after 10 years in my little Mitsubishi Eclipse. First of all, Volvo had the best lease terms of any of the vehicles I looked at, including the RDX, Infiniti FX, the Murano and the Lexus RX300. I got the V6 AWD version, no...

Good view, bad snow

Tue, 29 Aug 2006 04:41:39 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - Heavenly is essentially a Southern California resort in the Lake Tahoe area. It's popular, has a beautiful view, has a nightlife and has terrible snow. The main problem with Heavenly is that people that aren't that into skiing tend to go there...

I don't believe it, but this stuff works!

Tue, 29 Aug 2006 04:16:05 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - When we recently got our puppy and were starting to housetrain her, a few people recommended nature's miracle to us. Obviously, having seen so many infomercials and their ilk, I was extremely skeptical at first. When our puppy had the first of many...

Heavenly Music

Wed, 7 Jun 2000 18:58:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I used to be a Heavenly fan. I use the words "use to" because they no longer exist after drummer Mathew Fletcher's death. Their songs were incredibly poppy and catchy an off key element snuck in each of them to throw the listener off and...

Samsung SCH 3500 CDMA / AMPS Cellular Phone: The Silver Superfun phone

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 05:06:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - This is one amazing phone with several amazing features you won't see on those ubiquitous Nokia 6100's.

- It has voice activated dialing. It can recognize one, two and three syllable words (maybe more) and I've never had to repeat myself to...

No service, Full charge

Fri, 25 Feb 2000 16:47:32 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - This bank has got to be an investor's dream. They make so much money off their customers, it's amazing that they haven't been doubling earnings every month. Of course, not being one of their stockholders, I have an entirely different opinion of this...

Classy Dive

Thu, 24 Feb 2000 03:33:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - This used to be one of my favorite bars in orange county until the Yard House moved in across the street. It still is one of the coolest "dive" bars I've ever been to. Rather it is a dive bar only in the Orange County sense of the word. The...

IWin.com: crash central

Fri, 11 Feb 2000 21:45:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - While the concept of this site is good and definitely something I would subscribe to, the logistics seem to have baffled the programmers.

First a little basics . . .

This is a site where you sign on to play games. Depending on your...

Not quite best in the West

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 18:18:52 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - I recently flew this airline to albuquerque with a layover in Phoenix. The thing that drew me to the airline was the cheap price, which amazingly was cheaper than Southwest. The first thing I noticed when I boarded the flight was that the planes look...

overwrought wannabe cyberpunk

Thu, 27 Jan 2000 02:04:49 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - When I first saw this movie about a post apocalyptic world, I was impressed. I was drawn to the music and the mood, but then I saw it again and I saw it for what it was, another pretentious wannabe "Bladerunner." Basically, the theme is the...

barley essential

Thu, 27 Jan 2000 01:10:29 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author superstah - While many of my classmates swore by this book in studying for the usmle step 1, I found it to be not so useful. If you want to pass with the minimum amount of studying, it might have been useful, but it is rather useless for those who want to do well...
