Name: Bob Title: SMASHING, SUPERB SONDHEIM At long last, JULIE ANDREWS sings Stephen Sondheim. Andrews is so superb at interpreting Sondheim (BARBRA STREISAND should listen and learn), you wonder why it took so long for the two to get together and put it together. Cast members Stephen Collins, Michael Rupert, and Rachel York are unnecessary. Playwright Christopher Durang (another cast member) is sharp, droll, and funny; particularly on "Drive A Person Crazy." Julie Andrews delivers the ABSOLUTELY DEFINITIVE interpretations of "Could I Leave You?" and "Getting Married Today." Sondheim is THE GENIUS MASTER OF BROADWAY, and JULIE ANDREWS, a versatile, perfect, emotional, classic musical and dramatic actress, is his ideal muse here.

Name: Bob Title: Poorly made I purchased this for our blue road trip grill. It took a while but I finally got it to fit in the case. The first time I fastened the straps one pulled out of the seam. The grill was such a tight fit that I didn't think it would matter if it was not fastened. The first time we took our grill in the case tailgating the zipper started pulling out of the seam. I emailed Coleman but got no response. It's a great idea---too bad it is so poorly made. I feel like I wasted $46.00. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: Are... Are You Serious...? Truthfully, I was appalled with the amount of regression the band sounds like they went through after listening to this album.I agree the flow of songs and how they sound is uniform, but monatonously so; why not throw some variety in? Songs were so blatantly angst-filled and yell-filled that STD felt like a bad 16yr old version of themselves. The beauty of Stay What You Are, I feel, is that a genuine effort was made by Chris to sing well, even though he isn't the world's greatest. I felt not a hint of effort on this release. I cannot imagine anyone over the age of 16 actually liking this album or being able to connect with it on any level.I was tempted to first buy this album, but I must say that I do not regret for a moment that I downloaded it first.Hopefully, after another few years, STD will learn how to write and sing songs again.

Name: Bob Title: Best book I have ever read. While I haven't had the opportunity to read as much literature as I would like, thus far into my life, I was absolutely stunned upon reading Dostoevsky's final work. The Brothers Karamazov literally changed my life with its satire of society, its criticism of religion, and overall representation of the human condition. You must read this book!

Name: Bob Title: A quick read for air travel, or waiting for baby to awaken. Pulp fiction, tightly crafted, quickly paced, conveniently plotted with forty-eleven twists and that is one too many. I'll bet it didn't take more than six days to keyboard this cheap thriller, and only then because he added all the conceivable endings. A good read if you're looking for a page turner than doesn't matter, but if you read many mysteries you will predict the entire book after the first three chapters.

Name: Bob Title: Essential Reading for Stitch and Glue Kayak Builders If you have ever considered building your own sea kayak, The Kayak Shop is required reading. The author clearly and effectively describes the steps involved in building these simple but elegant boats. It covers everything from materials and tools, to painting and varnishing tips and everything in between. The book is also nicely illustrated with photographs demonstrating specific building techniques. After reading this book, I built my own stitch and glue kayak from one of the author's kits. I referenced The Kayak Shop constantly during the process. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Instead, I got lists which reminded me of when I studied for the SATs years ago.

Name: Bob Title: Ouch. Sorry to say I found nothing new, nothing that hasn't been said/written a thousand times before. After listening to these CDs I had the distinct feeling the other reviewers had either been trying to put themselves on the same level as the two authors by endorsing them, a bit of 'fame by association' kind of thing, or it was the very first book/tape on writing they had ever read/listened to. Sure, sure, everyone has their own opinion, but unless you have trouble falling asleep at night, save your money. I wish I had. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: What is this telling our kids? I am a writer and I can tell you that this series is not a good one for kids. Kids need to be taught that through hard work and dedication, happy endings are usually to follow. I don't understand what this series of childrens books is wanting to teach. Books are meant to teach lessons, such as life lessons and morals. This series of childrens books teaches that no matter how hard you try, you will always fail.

Name: Bob Title: personal experience disguided as "scientific'' I thought this book was really bad- it presents itself as a guidebook for having healthy twins, but it is based primarily on the writer s own experience of having twins, and it contains a lot of unscientific statements and advice about how to 'talk to your headache'. There are much better books out there that are actually based on sound research. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: A great addition to my truck! These Warn hubs were a breeze to install. As long as you don't need to repack the bearings (you really should do that once in a while) it will only take maybe 20 minute per side. The factory ADD system is silly-only one side is disconnected so the spyder gears spin like crazy. With these hubs everything will be diconnected for slightly better gas mileage plus the half shaft bearings and boots will last forever. I left my ADD system intact so if I want, I can lock in the hubs at home and wait to put it in 4wd in the mud without getting muddy. Another plus- if a half shaft breaks in the hills, I can just unlock the hubs, tie up the shaft and drive home. These Warn Hubs are GREAT!

Name: Bob Title: A wonderful set This is a great set of the Ralph Vaughan Williams symphony cycle. It's the best I've heard so far--especially the 5th and The Lark Ascending. Definitely five star performances. The only reason I gave it only four stars is that the set is recorded at such a low level that you can't hear much besides the really loud spots without cranking the stereo up high; and then the loud spots are REALLY loud. If you can deal with that, then get this set. You won't be disappointed. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: very Good live album I downloaded a couple of concerts from Gambale's tours round about this period, with joel taylor on drums. About half the material was on these downloads that appear here but different concerts(available at frank gambale.com). This is an excellent gig and well recorded, this trio spark off each other really well and are definitely inside the songs so are confident to stretch out with them. I am not keen on Gambale's smoother jazz efforts, but this is definitely not one of them. High order improv is the order of the day here.

Name: Bob Title: Multimeter This is an EXCELLENT Multimeter for the price! The display updates about as fast as any other multimeter and has all the usual goodies: resistance, voltage(up to 600v), Current(up to 10A), a diode checker etc. It also has a continuity check that will beep when to probes complete a circuit with each other, so its good for checking and quickly diagnosing broken circuits. One thing that really stands out about this meter is that it has a back light. Even though you won't find needing it very often, I usually turn it on anyway because it is much easier to read.

I heard this album in CASA AMADEO in the BRONX, N.Y. (Casa Amadeo has been around for 50 yrs, & MIKE AMADEO is a great composer and has written many HIT SONGS for GRAN COMBO, HECTOR LAVOE, CHEO FELICIANO, RAY SEPULVEDA, CELIA CRUZ, & many more). When MIKE AMADEO heard the CD he said, and I QUOTE, "QUE PORQUERIA!!!!" (Translation = "What GARBAGE/JUNK!"). I also thought "Gilberto SALSA-MONGA" is at it again, producing SOFT, COMMERCIAL, CRAPPY CD's. If you are looking for good Mambo music you WILL NOT find it in this CD. This CD totally $U--$!

The book is filled with drawings, some look like the refrigerator art we all collect when our children are in elementary school. It was like reading an article discussing colors and all the pictures were in black and white. The book discusses plants and there is no photograph of the plant.

Name: Bob Title: Alternative techno synth jazz fusion with melody and heart! Not your average Icelandic band! These boys (now men) have rhythms, beats, and melodies that move you, your hands, your feet, and your mind.Their progressions and harmonies are distinctive, sometimes funky, yet ALWAYS way cool! I especially love the song "Prime Time" on this CD! I like this whole CD in fact!Former General Music.. sales rep., Chris Anthony, created a demo for the General Music S2 Music Processor Synth (now evolved into the GM Equinox) of the song "Prime Time." It was Chris, a very talented British keyboardist, who introduced me to this group and their music at Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center in Wheaton, Maryland a few years ago demoing the GM S2 synth.This group has a very unique sound and that's why I still keep buying their newer CDs, but this one is a stand out among their work!

Name: Bob Title: This book was edited? I won't echo the other comments about how the work is unoriginal or taken from other writers. I didn't care too much about that, mainly because I couldn't get past the horrible use of language. I think this book got caught up in the whole "the writer's 18 years old!" hype. Had this book been written by Robert Jordan and published as a Wheel of Time novel, it would have been flambayed.The use of the English language is absolutely horrible, for all the reasons described in the reviews below, and I blame this not on Paolini's education, but on his editors, who failed to clean up this book into something readable.

Name: Bob Title: Nepotism at its' best I watched Lily Allen on Saturday Night Live last night. This stage is awful, one of the worst, but it never fails to separate the truly talented from the talentless hacks.After Allen's performance, I looked her up and wasn't surprised to learn that her parents are stars in their own right and have connections in the business.Allen has about as much stage presence as a lump of jiggling jello. But what of her singing chops? Her vocals are so ordinary she wouldn't even be granted a minute of fame on American Idol's worst auditions reel.Her voice has absolutely no power, no depth, no resonance, and no range. There is NOTHING about this bad-tempered, poorly-reared, wannabe pop star worth listening to. Her lyrics are garbage.She is a perfect example of why the music business is in so much trouble. Giving the children of famous people contracts in the hopes they can measure up to mom and dad or worse yet, giving children of famous people contracts who's parents weren't even singers.

Name: Bob Title: Another King story trashed This film actually begins quite well, although the little kid narrating it kind of made it lose the creepy feeling you had in the opening credits. The movie is actually fairly entertaining until after our two main characers enter the house of our youthful narrator and his sister. Up until this sour turn in events, it's a fairly noble adaption. And then the story is wrecked, from the, al I can think of is: "toned down" ending, tothe lame interpretation of "He who walks Behind The rows". Why do screenplay writers feel they must always change the master of horror's story around? Everytime they do it trashes what could've been a promising film. I've seen it in Dreamcatcher and The Tommyknockers, although this sucked already anyway. It also brings to mind: Why did they feel inclined to make a sequel? Hollywood sickens me sometimes.

Name: Bob Title: Don't misunderstand I think movie gives great insight to how a married relationship can be, I just think that some of the scenes, however symbolic they are, can be very inaccurate and inappropriate.Tom Cruise plays the part of a devastated husband who found out that his wife "almost" had an affair with another man. When he finds out he takes the approach, rather than talk with his wife, we decides to try and give it right back to her by having an affair with another woman. Now some men might have that reaction and immediatley would go to that route, however it takes him to places where sex in meaningless, to the point where everyone wears masks to hide their identity. This may have proven symbolic to what Cruise's charecter was looking for, but not a very good stereotype/generalization.The story is good, the plot completley unbelievable. That is why the rating is so low. Some say it's misunderstood, I think it was mis-represented. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: Primitive and Frustrating I bought this set because I thought it'd be fun to learn how to cook new dishes that can only be done with stainless steel.

Say what you will about non-stick cookware, but I'll take it and it's higher-tech construction than cookware that would be at home in 19th century Eastern Europe.

Name: Bob Title: Elementary in his presentation I was very much anticipating the receipt of this work, because I was looking for critical evidence of the influence of Paganism in Christianity. Although there are references he uses, many of his thoughts, it seems, are just his beliefs stated with minimal or no support. Now I don't disagree with most of what he had to say but in many areas he must assume that support or an extended explanation is not needed. In many ways it reminds me of the writings of a non-professional parishioner discussing his non-orthodox beliefs written down for others to read rather than a scientific textual critique of the subjects. I wanted more extensive justification of how or why such and such might have ended up the way it was. He needed to make a case for much of what he talked about, but he did not. This would not be a work that a critical thinker could use to raise doubt in the mind of orthodoxy. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Even if the call doesn't get dropped, I can hardly hear the person on the other line. Sure, Cingular/t-mobile might have the nation's largest network, but they also have one of the most highly trafficked networks as well. Sign up with someone else.

This was my first DVD player, and it worked great, had great sound, easy setup, the Noise Reduction really cleaned up the image...(now you wonder why I am talking in the past sense)...but it stopped working after only two weeks and playing five movies. Whenever I inserted a disc it shut down or told me the disc was dirty. I'll be taking it back to the shop tomorrow, very disappointed with my first Sony DVD experience.

Name: Bob Title: Loved it! I have seen both the original version and this version plus I read all the books and I have to say how happy I was with the way they told the story! True things were changed but it was still heart pounding and intense! In theaters I took my hubby and a few friends who have never read read the book or seen the other version and their thoughts: Amazing, heart wrenching, captivating, and 'I really want to kill that F*'! Coming from two views: From a person who knows the original story line & from friends who knew nothing this movie is absolutely amazing!Also the blu-ray combo is just what I wanted with the ability to see everything in perfect quality! BUT please be aware of the subject matter for things get graphic. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: Where is the sex? I am so sorry, but I can't say that there was anything erotic at all about this book. I was looking for erotica not soft porn. It was like having someone think that they were going to a full-course meal and they were served Ritz crackers.Alpine County, in my opinion was very boring. If I wanted to know about two lesbian that lived until they were 70-something years old I would of watched "If These Walls Could Talk" on HBO. Stupid story, very stupid story.Movie Lover, all it did was talk about what the title suggest, the love of movies. No sex really to speak of though.White Girl Blues, a black man that loves having sex with a white female that has a black virgin as a girlfriend. This story to me goes a little deeper than sex. I feel as though this story was trying to pull a race card. Whatever though, the story was still garbage.Overall, the book was no good. Give me some hot steamy sex that will make pages melt.

I confess I did not finish the book after page 70 or so because it has just too silly a plot, has totally inane characters and contrives to be funny on a predicitible and absurdly simple-minded level. I am sorry this kind of book is such a best seller. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: Won't last more than 2 years. We loved all the features...keeps coffee hot and will stay for up to 4 hours tasting great the entire time. Easy to clean, somewhat difficult to put water in the reservoir, and the dispenser needs to be a bit taller for a "to-go" cup to fit. That said, I recommended it to friends. Ironically, we all have the same problems---after 1-2 years of use it will leak from the reservoir and the dispenser will drip as well. It now seems to have developed an electrical short in the 2nd year of ownership. I think we're going for a Bunn but will surely miss the absence of a caraffe. If you're looking for a great 1-2 year solution for your home coffee needs, this is it. But, be prepared to purchase again. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Better chances to watch as a rental. It did inspire hope for exploring reconnection with a spouse and bringing back the spark. Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: don't bother. I put this on my baby registry and recieved a box as part of a gift. This is my first experience with any Medela product. The plastic used for these bags is stiff and the measurements are off. Not to mention the bags only hold 5 ozs. Since the plastic is so stiff, I have torn through several, right down to the seal, rendering them useless. Thank goodness I didn't purchase these because I would have been highly upset. I considered giving the remainder of the box to a friend of mine, but I would not wish these bags on anyone! Awesome idea in theory but Medela has a long way to go in order to get this concept working correctly. Save your sanity and buy anything else!

I bought the CD with high hopes, and thought I would be impressed. Instead I was disappointed by the horrible songs and lyrics. I don't think this CD showcased her voice to its potential.

Name: Bob Title: Hated, Hated, Hated It!!!!! I have to agree with the previous reviewer. This book was filled to the brim with hatred. I honestly don't see how it could be classified as a romance novel. In a medieval romance, I expect to read about high-handed men. However, the hero in this story, Axton, went beyond high-handed to downright mean and brutal. He was cruel and abusive to the heroine throughout the whole story, and there were too many scenes where rape would be the best word used.This just isn't my type of story. I don't like reading about heroines falling in love with brutal, verbally abusive men who treat them like they have less importance than the livestock. I don't like reading about "heroes" who resort to rape, or use sex to make the heroine feel cheap and dirty. I think i'll just stick to Karyn Monk and Madeline Hunter.

Name: Bob Title: Waste of Money This is a TERRIBLE machine. I was very excited to get this product but was SOON disappointed. The vacuum part did not suck up everything. It missed a lot of crumbs and hair. The wet part was even worse. It left the floors very wet which is VERY bad for laminates and dried very streaky. And just when I thought it couldnt get worse I started to clean the machine. The dirt that the vacuum part picked up went into the same tank with the dirty water. It took about 15 minutes to clean out the dirty tank because now I was dealing w/ wet, dity hair and dust filled water. Absolutely disgusting! So after an hour w/ the ridiculous machine I had to re-mop w/ an old fashion sponge mop. Seriously dont waste your time, energy, and money on this product!!!!

Name: Bob Title: A visit with a favorite set of characters and fictional town There is no way to compare this latest Karon trip to Mitford to her earlier series. Although of a rather nice size, this is strictly a visit with the beloved retired rector and his wife and the aging community that is so familiar to Mitford fans. I did not expect this volume to end up making a startling set of plot outcomes, and it didn't, but I found the whole read comforting. It was good to go back home to Mitford and follow the seasonal advance on Christmas with surprise presents being prepared for giving.I am glad that I bought this volume: a relaxing, restful, reassuring interval in other reading. I recommend it to those devoted to Karon's wonderful characters. You will certainly laugh and smile and rejoice in the down-to-earth experiences with all the good folk in Karon's fictional town.This book is Karon's Christmas card to her fans. So lovely and happily received! Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: HAVE SOME FROSTING WITH YOUR BUTTER I found this frosting pretty disgusting. And I'm not one to be very likely to put the words "frosting" and "disgusting" in the same sentence. It ended up tasting mainly like butter. When I scraped it off into the sink, it just stayed in one clump and wouldn't even rinse down the sink very easily (like you'd expect from butter). And even if you like the taste of a bunch of butter on your cake, save yourself some money. The only ingredients in this mix are powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt. You can buy all those very cheaply and still add all the butter the directions call for (2.5 sticks!). Gross! Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment? A:

Name: Bob Title: Great fan for small spaces I needed a small fan to keep in the bathroom.

It doesn't look too big on the bathroom counter, has 2 speeds that are enough, and doesn't put out too much sound.I would give this fan 5 stars if it went a little faster :-) Q: Does the above review have a positive or negative sentiment?

Name: Bob Title: Chore to read Yes, the old adage rings true here: never judge a book by its cover. That was my mistake, because it sounded quite good when I read the back. I was looking for something light and fun. But the entire book is so disjointed. Many times I found myself going back to re-read a sentence that was so awkwardly structured, you couldn't figure it out the first time. It really reads like a first draft that hasn't been edited. A pity, because it could be a charming (even if somewhat fluffy) tale to read.Another word of warning...there are LOTS of references to British Lit, so if you're not familiar with writers from Keats to Enid Blyton, you may not pick up on some of the attempted jokes.
