Easier then going to the store
I found what I was looking for, and had it sent, and that was much less time consuming then looking for and buying it in a store, Done is done.

A great little engine
I have to agree with the other reviewer that the metal engines are so much more durable and longer lasting than the plastic ones. That said, Thomas is just wonderful though. He sure is hard to find at Christmas, however! If you have a Thomas fan or even if you are just beginning, a battery operated train is a must in my book. We have this one, a metal Lionel and an Imainarium brand and they're all just great. The Lionel by far is the strongest and the fastest, but these character trains like Thomas just can't be beat. They provide hours of imaginative play for my little one and he just loves interacting all of his toys with his train set. Especially after watching a Thomas video. I just wish the trains were cheaper to purchase! Highly recommend!

What a disappointment
I bought this to replace an old battery powered Thomas. At first glance I thought the push button was great for my 2 year old who didn't quite have the small motor coordinatin to manuveur the forward/backward switch on the old Thomas. But when we started to try and use the new Thomas on the track, it kept cutting out. I think it is designed to cut out if the wheels are restricted (e.g. when a child is holding them with their finger) but this mechanism is so sensative that it cuts out with the pressure of a bend in the track. Basically the thing is absolutely useless.
1
Don't buy!
Motor worked for a total of 3 minutes. Not exaggerating! It derailed the whole time. Now I've got a 3 year old crying for his Thomas to work.

Eats batteries, strips gears quickly
The train feels sturdy, but it doesn't stand up to the abuse a three year old will inflict. Three days after getting the thing home, my boy had pushed it back and forth enough to strip the gears...."Pushed it back and forth?" you say? "Why? It's battery-powered!" Yeah, that's the thing. The 1 AA battery that you mount into the engine lasts all of 20 minutes and it's cooked. This thing eats batteries. Worse, it runs on carpet, over books, and under furniture so it'll sit there churning the battery energy away while you lift up the couch repeatedly... that is until the battery runs out and the boy pushes it until the gears strip.Junk. Don't buy it.

Won't last long with a 3 year old
If you have a kid who likes to move the trains by hand, don't spend the extra money on this. I think it's probably a good product, just not for a 3 yr old.
1
Didn't even last a week
I was SO excited to give this to my 2 1/2 year old for Christmas, but it has been more of a pain than anything. We have gone through 2 batteries in 6 days with Thomas, he can't seem to make it uphill anymore, and the motor has officially given out. The interesting part is that Thomas was used the least of my sons battery powered trains (Thomas and James). The battery powered trains are pretty useless as push trains, as they are very heavy and make a noise like you are winding them up when they move forward. My son has the James battery powered train which still seems to be running fine (after 6 days), but I'm thinking about removing these and going back to push trains only, as he once had so much fun pushing his trains around for hours and now he just watches James go around the track with so much less involvement.

broken
Not work after one month of using, although it was nice when it works. My daughter is disappointed. I will try to repair it.
1
Switch broken after 3.5 months of use
The toy is ok. The engine is low-speed high-torque. So it can run on wooden trails that are less than smooth. However, the switch was broken after 3.5 months of use. Engine is always on and swtich does not function. Return policy is within 1 month of purchase.

Great Classic
My 2 year old loves this toy and so do I! Strong and durable even when he pushes it accross the hardwood floors.

Like this Series
These trains are extremely sturdy and well designed (they'll take a lickin' and keep on tickin'), but they're not very fast if that's what you're looking for. I think the speed they're designed for is more a function of track design (If they were much faster, they'd probably come off the curved tracks more frequently). The one thing I'd probably suggest to the designers apart from a little more speed is a sound element. The age of the children this is made for, well they want to interact and play with the trains, and they would love to hear the trains go "Choo-choo" or say "Hi, I'm Thomas, here I goooooo..." or some such simple thing. I'd like to think that such a design element is not technologically beyond these companies that make so much money off of us parents because these shows and characters are so well marketed.

My sons Love it.
My sons love to play with it.So, they don't need to push the trains around.It is powerful enough to tow along 10+ trains.The build quality is great, we have it for almost 3 years.We also have the Percy version.The Thomas has 2 more wheels, and they make the train more easily to get stuck or run out of track.So, the Percy runs better, but our Percy's motor broke down.

we Love/Hate this Thomas
We have a love/hate relationship with this Thomas the Train. It is by far one of my son's favorite toys, when it is working. I must say I am very thankful for a husband who is handy, as he has had to "repair" Thomas twice (beyond just changing the battery). Just a few weeks after we purchased this, one of the wires came loose inside, leaving Thomas completely inoperable. After a few hours of being in the "workshop" and not an easy repair, Thomas was once again working. Despite these hang-ups, my son LOVES to play with him and has had enough enjoyment that it almost makes it worth all of the trouble....IF you are super handy, have plenty of time, and can fix him every time he breaks.
1
Can't turn
I bought this toy for my grandsons who adore Thomas. They had great fun with it at first; however, as soon as the track was laid, it became apparent that this "wood railway" toy could not navigate any but the widest of turns without running off the track. That's no fun after all.
1
Very slow moving
We bought this to use on our "Step2 Deluxe Canyon Road Train & Track" and although it does fit on most parts of the track it is very slow. Real slow.It is made well and powerful though. My son uses it to push up to 9 hot wheel cars around the track.Just wish it was faster. He got bored with it after a day.
1
Power trains blow
I have now bought (3) Thomas battery powered trains and (2) of them have lasted about two weeks. Once you have to take the batteries out several times they stop working-poor product for the $20 price tag!!!!

Great toy, but died after three days of use
My daughter received this train for Christmas and she loved it. She used it to pull her non battery trains around the track and around the house. We changed the batteries every day, and after three days of use the train died. I would have given this train five stars if it had lasted, but having it for only three days of use reduced it to one star.
1
The only Thomas pc. that has disappointed us
My son was initially thrilled to get this addition to his figure eight set, but once the novelty wore off, it seemed like more aggrevation that it was worth. For starters, once he saw battery operated Thomas do his thing, my son no longer wished to push the trains around the track himself. The durability is not great - we are about to return our second to Learning Curve. The second was even worse than the first - after only a few turns around the track it would not go up ascending track even by itself. This would frustrate my son considerably. The noise it creates is also considerable for such a small toy. Again, the second was worst than the first. We adore all our other pieces but my recommendation would be to skip this one and let your children push their own toys! --Update - We are about to send back Thomas for the third time. My son has grown tired of his always broken battery operated Thomas and has gone back to pushing his own trains.
1
Broke very quickly
Broke down very quickly, because it is not possible to push it, the gears are engaged and when the power is switched off and pushed it grinds the gears. Some it started getting jammed very quickly, it would take a lot of hassle to get it going on its own again. I guarantee this will break very quickly, unless you do not let your kid play with it.
1
Does not work well
Having 2 young boys we have been into Thomas for quite some time over a 4 year span. This was about the 4th battery powered engine I have bought for them. The other ones have been durable and fun to play with and the batteries last for quite sometime.This one has a very sticky on button which is so tight my 4 year old can not even turn it on. Not much fun for him.
1
2 days after I got it, it doesn't work!
My son had such a great time for the first day and then we had to change the battery the next day because it had drained very quickly.I had to keep explaining to my son, age 2, that it's not good to push it manually, because as everyone else complained I was worried about the clicking. We had decided maybe to take the engine away until he was a bit older and just let him have the track and the other non battery opperated car that came with it (mine was the Sir Topham Hatt set). But it was too late unfortunately and my son managed to break it. He pushed down on it to make it go manually and I think, bent the wheel, or the axel? Now it gets stuck and the back wheels stick and don't move with even the slightest pressure. I works but not as well.I think unless your child is old enough to just sit and watch the thing go round and round and keep the wheels clean, it's best to buy the non battery powered engines.

Ok. Battery screw problem
We have Thomas, Percy and James battery powered trains. All of them have problem with the battery screws. From the first get go, I am unable to unscrew the battery compartment. I find a way to get it out only to use to tape to hold them together. It is a pain. But, my son loves it thought.

Great toy for little Thomas the Train enthusiasts
I bought this train for my 2 year old son who loves trains. He enjoys watching this train go around the track and anywhere around the house for that matter. This train has surprising power and is easily capable of pulling multiple train cars behind it. We've only had this train for a few weeks, but it seems sturdy enough to stand-up to the usual play of toddler. It has fallen off the furniture multiple times and is still working well. These little battery powered engines are a great addition the other Thomas Wooden Railway pieces.

Battery powered Thomas the train
The train is very heavy duty. It only hold a few car but its exactly what I was looking for.

Sooooo Underrated
First off, I have to say I like Cowboy Bebop for it's action, style, and wit, but I don't find it to be the best anime of all time. Great series and all, but I do feel it's a *little* overrated. But god damn, is the music for this series so _________ good. I don't understand why so many people even attempt to listen to Kenny G when such a magnificant album and band such as this are rotting in the dust. I really don't have many other words to say for this. If you like jazz, blues, and just music in general, then you need to make. I am so _________ glad I got this. It's sad to see that something like Justin Bieber is getting all the hype when jaw dropping music is sitting in the dust. Get it NOW!

An excellent product
This is one of the best hair products that I have ever used for sculpting different hair styles. I recommend it for everyone how want a fast and strong results for hair styles. ^_^
2
performs as promised
I bought one for myself and one for my friend who moved to Switzerland. It is fun to be able to talk face to face. The quality of the sound and picture are good. She had a little trouble with the software installation, but all is well now.

Eh,..
These shoes are a whole size smaller than marked. I wear a 7 and 7 would not fit me. I had to order an 8. But these seemed bulky and heavy and not confy at all! and the metal detail in the front makes noise. Returning. They look better in the picture than they do in person.

The solo debut by Stewart
This is an amazing solo debut by Rod Stewart, released in 1969 (in the US, it received the title "The Rod Stewart Album" - go figure why...?).The band here is tight and focused, Rod sings like never, it blends some very good originals by Rod with some covers. The singing here is full of passion a spontainety, something Rod would come to lose along the way...Highly recommended.
2
Where's the bloody track listings!!!:@
This was Rod's daybue album from 1969 and I am disgusted that amazon doesn't even have sound samples or track listings!!!:@ Wake up amazon! Give us the track listings for crying out loud!

not what I expected
I was hoping this would be something similar to the larger Altec Lansing speaker dock (XM3020) I had purchased in the past. I wanted it because it seemed to be pretty slim for the amount of traveling I would be doing. The base does not have an antenna on the back and needs to be plugged in from side of the portable XM. So it looks silly with the cords coming from the unit. Like an XM on "Life support" and of course nothing like the picture. The flip out part is also a bit flimsy so I am guessing it won't last that long. The sound is not that great as with the other Altec speaker dock. If I had another chance I would go back to the other base (XM3020). I like that it has a traveling bag and it does connect to my laptop which I am using as an extra speaker. I am ok with it for now especially for the amount I paid ($25). I will give it another few weeks than I may have to go to the other base.

Great for camping
Took this with us on a trip to Maine, little cabin on a lake, no TV no radio. Great for music and news in the morning. Worked perfectly, great signal and all needed parts fit into the travel bag. I did have to add the antenna from my home kit, as I couldn't get a signal without it.
1
Price of product vs. poor customer service
Had problem with unit w/in 3 mos of purchase. Was finally able to make contact with company after several WEEKS of trying. Even their customer support line disconnects you when you try to keep holding and don't leave a message. And when you leave a message, it must be deleted, because they don't return calls.Product was replaced w/ refurb unit missing parts. Now I can't get ANYONE!Altec Lansing is a poster child for extremely poor customer service. They have your money, and you have, well, a product with their name on it, for as long as it works. Had I known this prior to purchase, I wouldn't have purchased. It's that simple.
2
At The Right Price It Is Great!
If you can get a good price for this item (I paid $35.00) then it is well worth it. It performs exactly as described and I enjoy the portability though it would have been nice if it had included an XM antenna. For those of you who know about Altec Lansing's glory days when they produced top of the line speakers in Anaheim California remember this is not the same company and though the product is good for the money it will never measure up to what the Altec name once stood for.
1
DOESN'T WORK with XM INNO! BE WARE
I bought this for my husband and am ripped that amazon (nor distributor) tells you that it will NOT work with XM INNO. I will have paid TWICE the amount in shipping than I paid for the speakers. WHAT A DISSAPOINTMENT ;( very mad.

Party Pack for a 1 Year Old's birthday
My husband is a huge Steelers fan, so when our daughter turned one, I picked a day for her birthday party. Since we don't have many friends with kids, I just picked a random day in Jan. 2011. Well the day I picked was a major Steelers game. So we couldn't miss the game now could we. So my husband said that we can have a Steelers/1 Year Old birthday party. I ordered this as a suprise to my husband. The price was higher then I wanted to pay, but it made my husband happy. My daughter is a Steelers fan as well. She knows the logo so she was happy as well.

Very difficult to remove from the Casio EX-Z750
Being much less expensive than the Casio brand batteries, this is a useful backup (the Casio battery lasts so long that one should rarely need a second). However, this battery is ever so slightly too large for the EX-Z750 (I haven't handled the other models with which it is supposed to compatible), making it hard to remove without using the edge of a credit card to gain some grip on it. Even then it wasn't easy. (The Casio battery just slides right out; this one moves maybe a millimeter out of its housing). I returned my EX-Z750 due to defects (see my review on the product page if you are considering this camera), so I cannot comment on the longevity of this battery. A brief outing with it (one that did not remotely tax its capabilities) revealed no problems.
1
Battery will not charge
My original batteries died and I bought this for replacement. This battery will not charge. Waste of my money and time.

I R R I T A T I N G !
If you MUST have this game make sure you pay less than five buck for it so you won't feel bad when you use it for a coaster for your drink. This genre sucks anyways but this one takes it to a whole new level of WORTHLESSNESS! Mumbo Jumbo usually makes great addictive puzzle games however the only puzzle here is why anyone would find this game fun. Getting blown-up every 15 seconds, lack of strategy, lack of interesting game play, but HEY it's got great colors! BRING A BOOK! This game has NO redeeming qualities. IT'S JUST IRRITATING!

This is not the Secret of Mana Original Soundtrack CD
This is not the Secret of Mana Original soundtrack from the game, aka in Japan: Seiken Densetsu 2 OSV. This CD, the one listed above, is also known as secret of mana plus and is a orchestral mixture that contains some of the themes and original music from the game plus other sounds. You will not find the individual tracks as suggested above by the previous viewer and if you are looking for the game music, you will likely be disappointed. Seek other anime stores for that music cd.

Horrid
Tacky plastic pieces. Took an eternity to arrive. Customer service lacks proffecionalisim. Also was not shipped when it was supposed to. I placed an order on the first. Recieved order today on sept 11. Never again.

Bad
A bunch of plastic jewelry almost none of it is steal and took forever to get here. not good quality at all Im probably gonna throw it away
1
If I could give it zero stars I would
Worst self tanner I have ever tried in my life, and also the most expensive. It does not work AT ALL. I have applied this every day for 3 days and got no color at all. You would do better with something from the drugstore. What a total waste of money.
2
Gives step by step instructions
As a beginner with meditation, I was looking for something instructional and this fit the bill. There are 3 CDs in this set. The one on Pure Meditation was excellent and provided overall context/philosophy as well as specific "how to" for meditating. What I love about Pema is that she is not dogmatic. For example, if you can't sit comfortably on the floor, then sit in a chair. She makes Buddhism relevant for us Westerners. I've listened to the other two CDs, Good Meicine and From Fear to Fearlessness once and will go back and listen more times. If you are looking for a CD on meditation, this is a good value, as you get the other two CDs at a good overall price.
2
Excellent instruction
Pema Chodron imparts wisdom and guidance with the voice of an old soul. She gives me confidence that learning and practicing meditation may be difficult, but well worth it.
2
Great teacher
I am thoroughly enjoying listening to Pema Chodron collection of teachings.She is easy to listen to and presents great insights in a down-to-earth, accessible fashion. Excellent support for a beginning meditation practice and understanding Buddhist teachings.Pema is a clear, funny, humanly imperfect and wonderful guide for those who are searching for a way to handle life's challenges.
2
Pure Meditation - great product
Have you seen that ad on TV - "Your mind controls you, but do you control your mind?" Pema Chocdron shows you how to stop the incessant noise and criticism of your mind by finding a space where ideas are allowed, but teh spontaneous reaction to those ideas is not. By becoming compassionate towards others, you become more compassionate towards yourself, and learn to laugh at yourself and feel less alone by realizing "others feel like this too".Buy this - it helps.
2
great recomed it to anyone
l have no problem recommending this cd collection it's of great help and very insightful, Pema Chodron is an amazing woman l give this 5 stars only as there are no more to give, Metta xXx

it was great to watch again, I remember watching it years ago and it's still as great as ever. I would recommend it to anyone to buy.

Make yourself happy
From the very first song I loved this cd. Great fiddles and singing and lyrics to make me smile- terrifically entertaining and upbeat. These musicians are the real thing. Even better to see them live.
1
THIS IS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF MONEY
Do NOT waste your money on this 1 1/2 page of very, very brief definitions of what separates the last four generations. This is stuff you ALREADY KNOW. I thought I'd learn a few new things to understand working with multiple generations but this was useless. That this should even be sold on Amazon is a rip-off!
2
Between Frankenstein and Dr. Jekyll
A little-read story of George Eliot's "The Lifted Veil" is a lovely example of the intersection between humanities and science in 1859: it ends with a revivification scene worthy of Mary Shelley. Written just before Eliot admitted to being the author of *Adam Bede*, the emasculated protagonist, Latimer, mirrors Eliot herself in his desire for solitude. Exceedingly well-crafted Victorian writing. (I don't know the other story *Brother Jacob* well: it espouses that the wages of sin are embarassment and ostracization.)

Creative alternative for shower curtain rod
I was looking for a shower stall curtain rod & found practically nothing. This is an inexpensive & very attractive solution. Very simple to hang & seems durable.

rokken like dokken
Could the lyrics of any other song express the elation and confusion of love better? However, the import price is awful. I was charged less at an anime convention, but I got lucky.

AMazing...
Seriously... a good quick read... very balanced young man. So ethical it disgusts me. If more people like John Popeo existed, the world would be a scary place...

Disappointed with the Audrey
The Audrey doesn't seem to have be tested with real consumers before it launched. We've had trouble printing (doesn't seem to print what's on screen, or what's on the page), syncing to both of our Visors and problems with its inability to properly read web pages.3Com tech support acknowledges these issues but states that the company has no plans to improve the problems.It's taken us about 2 months to learn of all of the problems. Now we're out of the 30-day warranty window.Any one want to buy a 2-month old Audrey??
2
Shot in the right direction, but 3com missed the target.
My family purchased an Audrey for the holidays. We plugged it in and got it set up. Set up, by the way, couldn't have been easier. We just hooked up th broadband adapter and turned it on. Set up took roughly 15 minutes. After that, we set up all the porgrams. Thge internet works great with one problem; NO JAVA SUPPORT! The other problem we had was that our Palm V's wouldn't sync. We had to reboot to get it to work. It's a good product for what it does. Now some of the less "techy" people can acsess the net with ease. However, 3com shouldn't have rushed it, cuz she has her quirks.
1
Mainly OK, but terrible customer service
The Audrey mainly worked, but Java and Realplayer pages don't work. Realaudio is OK, so it makes a great web radio. Email is OK but some attachments don't get through. Audrey is a great prototype, but it's not ready for prime time.After many calls to 3com support I still couldn't get a Palm V to sync with it and so they decided that the serial port was faulty and asked me to return it for a replacement. That was four weeks ago! Calling their customer service is an adventure - it's patchy at best. I'd wait for them to get their act together. Leon

NOT user friendly
We bought this for our Mom with high expectaions based on reviews. Unfortunately, there are SO MANY quirks and limitations that it is actually HARDER to use than a real computer. Email would not forward, could only address to one person at a time, printing just does a 'screen dump' so to print an email, you get about five lines at a time, then you advance to the next page and get the next five lines. Very slow, tedious and useless. HTML email just shows up blank , no error message, so you don't even know that there is a problem, very confusing (3com confirmed that it WON'T receive html - I never noticed if email is html or not, now you have to tell people, bogus). Sorry 3COM, you missed the boat big time. We are going to buy Mom an iMac.

Impressed
Not much to be said, other than this knife comes ground to the correct angle and very sharp. It also holds its edge for quite a while. It isn't the heaviest chef knife around, but if you are accustomed to the cheapo gift set knives, your hand and wrists will need to get adjusted to the heftiness of a professional instrument; expect a slight reduction in speed until your muscles catch up. But when they do, you'll wonder why you didn't get a knife like this before, it makes cutting so much easier. A major advantage to a heavy, sharp knife is that it doesn't hurt your index finger because you use less force to cut, the knife's weight and edge does the work for you, and it remains stable. So don't feel the big knives are only for the big guys like Mario, they are actually safer to use!
1
Dull
I purchased this knife because it received excellent reviews. I must have received a defective item, because it was totally dull. Would not cut vegetables, chicken, nothing. It was worthless and was returned today.
2
This album is FIRE!!!
I love this album. I had this album years ago but bought to get another one. Where ya at Casso?
2
Nice music for nice people
It's not pop, it's not rock, it's not for people who don't like to think, and ponder, and laugh, and drink, and drink some more. But if that's your thing, this might be for you.
2
Not quite even an album
This was a cute little album, but not really worth owning except for the few unreleased songs on it. I have it only because of that reason, I collect Yoko Kanno albums."Doggy Dog" is really cute and I would listen to it on a mix of background music."Spy" is the typical spy song, but in Yoko style.
2
great cd
this cd is very good. i especially love "cats on mars". I would highly reccomend this for anyone who likes cowboy bebop. this cd is is good for the young and the old...just anyone who likes good music. on a note: don't try to understand what she's saying on "cats on mars" and "fantasie sign"
2
Bebopping good stuff
It really does have good stuff on it. I really like DOggy Dog and Black Coffee. (Can we pleeeeaase get some coffee? Nnnno! heh i love that) I must admit though that I dont have the CD and cant remember if the Cats from Mars is the remix or the original.
2
Another Winner
Good quality and well built to last a long time. Grandkids play with it daily and love it.

Great Product!
My Granddaughter loves trains and especially this one since it is battery powered! It was shipped fast and the transaction was great!
2
A lot of fun but not for younger Thomas fans
A great addition to your Thomas collection but I would not recommend it for younger children since the motor mechanism is somewhat fragile and is easily broken if you try to push it back and forth on the tracks manually, which is exactly what my 2.5 year old likes to do thinking it is the same as her other trains.
1
Breaks right away.
We have had bad luck with this lovely toy. I think it is poorly manufactured because it broke, we got a new one and it broke right away. Our battery powered thomas runs fine. Skip this lady.
1
No Fun With Lady
We have four battery operated engines (Thomas, Percy, Lady, James) and Lady and Percy were our second purchase. First, if she lays on her side, there is a loud ratcheting sound and when she is off, her wheels do not allow for free play as they are locked. Lady is the worst, when it comes to staying on the track. She can't even handle a straight line. She derails almost immediately as soon as you put her down. Lady also can't get up one of the low Thomas drawbridges. It has nothing to do with the way our track is set up because we did it according to manufacturer's instructions. Even in our own custom set up we removed all small curved track and she had serious problems. Even when Thomas didn't. There is no consistency from engine to engine. It is disappointing.

Delicious Meal!
After trying this chicken and rice dish, I was quite impressed at how flavorful it tasted. It's certainly not better than my mother's "Arroz con Pollo", but it comes close. Best of all, it takes half the time to prepare since everything but the chicken (and some cooking wine) is included in the box. It makes for a quick delicious meal.
2
Neuva Cocina Rice Mix for Chicken
The rice mix makes a tasty quick meal, however the sodium content is a bit too high.

Great meal!
A simple to prepare meal that is delicious! Your guests/family will think you have been in the kitchen all day! Try it and see! Order the minimum amount and you won't be sorry! Good luck!

Very enjoyable
As a huge fan of stand-up comedy and in particular, Stephen Wright and the always funny Denis Leary, I was very happy with my purchase of this DVD.Great footage, great interviews, and great production quality as well.This is a must for any comedy fan, especially those who are curious as to what it takes to make it in a very difficult business.Mark F.

An interesting look into Boston's comedy clubs
This was a good documentary on the history of two local comedy clubs in Boston. Since I am not from Boston, never been to Boston, and never will ever go to Boston, it was good for a one time viewing only.I agree with others that the cover of the DVD is misleading. I think that they purposely designed it to look like these people are actually performing routines, as an attempt to sell more copies, nationwide. Most people are pretty self centered and could care less about local comedy in an area other than their own.I give it two and a half stars. I thought that it would actually have some funny scenes in it and was disappointed when there was not any.

Not standup
Just wanted to warn everybody that this is not a stand up movie and the full "the night the standup stood up" is not there in full.

A SWEET SCENT

Cute, but very thin
I buy many stockings and pantyhose from ILOVESEXY, however, many of the leg avenue pantyhose are so thin, that they rip,just by putting them on. I only weigh 125lbs, so they should fit perfectly. I reccomend wearing 2 pairs at a time.

Great book
This is a great book, I sadly believe I have lost mine however. I am not unable to function without it, so I have no need to get it again, but it was indeed a great book. Seller was easy and fair, and shipping was just fine as well, no delays :)

Useful for everything boat related
This book is useful for pretty much any boat related knowledge, from rules of the road, to identifying sailboats. If you have an interest in boating you can't go wrong.

Refreshing new artist
Tyler Hilton is a great new artist with a refreshing style. His throwback melodies are reminiscent of '50s and '60s rock. His upcoming album should be highly anticipated and is sure to deliver more great music.

Not the Best...
I bought this CD expecting it to be the same type of music as the hit (When it Comes)... but when I finally got it, I listened, and kept trying to accept it and appreciate the music... But I still can't bring myself to do so. I will admit that I do, in fact, like "When it Comes". Its got a good guitar line and chord progressions - even good vocals. In the rest of the CD, Tyler's voice is husky and "wannabe" country. Another okay song is "The Letter Song"... although I will admit that I cringe every time he says, "I can be romantic, I just gotsta try to be." To sum it up, I guess I'll say that if you like pop-country, this is probably for you. Otherwise, make sure you listen to all the samples first and you're sure you'll like it, because for me, it wasn't worth the money.Over and out.

Buy this CD and you'll thank yourself!
Tyler Hilton....a name you might not know now, but for SURE will within the upcoming months! With his upcoming CD "The Tracks Of...," Tyler's storming the music scene. He showcases some of these songs on his self-titled EP. From the bouncy, singalong "When it comes," reminiscent of summer evening drives and nights at the local diner with friends, he takes us into a universal breakup story in "Pink and Black." "Letter Song' and "Slide" are both singable tunes, but simultaneously give way to showcase Tyler's extremely proficient guitar skills. This is a must-own!

AWESOME
Absolutely amazing so relieving of my neck pain. I have an invert table and this does the same thing but is much easier and takes up so much less space. Its feels like having a chiropractor pull up on your neck like when they do traction. I love it.

What A Slap In The Face To Masami Ueda
Do NOT buy this cd. Ever. This was probably just released as a test to see if REfans would buy anything that had "Resident Evil/Biohazard" on it.How dare this metamorphis guy ruin such perfect scores.Masami Ueda probably had a heart attack when he heard these awful remixes of his songs.Trance....bah.

Too simplistic
While Mr. Harrison makes some extremely valid arguments in this book , I wish he had also explored why the Anglo-protestant culture , which he holds up as"best in class" went about enslaving the world and what impact this has had on various countries , whom they enslaved.Perhaps some of the progress those Anglo-protestant societies have made, is due to the fact that they exploited other countries and other peoples and not so much their work ethic as Mr. Harrison seems to suggest

Don't do it!!
The high chair looks great when it first comes out of the box but it is all down hill after that. It is impossible to keep clean. The finish is flaking off, after less than 6 months of use. It is not worth the struggle to keep up. If you already have it, call the customer service number and order a second chair pad. It is only $12 and does help to be able to switch out when one is in the wash.

Looks nice, low functionality
I have used this highchair for 2 kids now and finally decided to sell it because I did not like it. It's a beautiful chair and looks great in the kitchen. It's much nicer looking than the 'plastic' ones you see. What I don't like about this chair is the day-to-day functionality of it. It does not adjust, at all. As the baby gets older, I want a chair that tilts, adjusts, etc-- and this does not do that. Also, it is very heavy and hard to move; it does not slide on the floor well at all. The seatbelt is clumsy and a pain to put through the fabric cover when you take the cover on or off for cleaning. After being used multiple times, the velcro that fastens the fabric cover down will no longer stick so every time you lift your child out of the highchair, the cover comes with them. I found myself very frustrated with this chair.I would not recommend this chair to anyone. I do think it's pretty though if you are going strictly by looks!

compact, but hard to clean
We have a small house, and really wanted two of these high chairs for our twins. Space-wize, they are great; they have a small footprint and look nice along side the rest of our furniture.The 2nd tray and the slide-out cup holders are a great addition to this high chair. The shelf under the seat is a great place to store bibs.The downside of the Eddie Bauer high chair is that its difficult to clean. I have toddler twins, I don't have a lot of time to spend cleaning their high chairs with a toothbrush! The slats on the side of the seat are close together and food gets slopped in between them at every meal. If you don't throughly clean this up after each meal, it dries and is difficult to get clean.Another downside is my kids never really fit well into these highchairs. They were always too short for the tray, and the tray was always too far away as opposed to other highchairs. This helped create even more food mess!

what is it saying?
not sure what this book is supposed to be. It is really just a rehash of very old ideas about Carroll with some pop culture uncomfortably tacked on. The 'myth' has been dealt with far better by people who really seem to understand it (it's too deep I think for Brooker's milieu), and the pop culture is presented without any kind of analysis or penetration.I think you are better off with Leach's 'In the Shadow of the Dreamchild' or Sigler's 'Alternative Alices'.

Makes My Blood Run Red-White-And-Blue
I agree that every American should read this book -- and everybody else for that matter. I don't agree that it's scholarly. Rather, it's a joy to read -- easy to understand even for a person with two master's degrees! Between McElroy's chapter on How American Culture was Formed and Ken Burns' Lewis & Clark, I don't know which makes my blood run red-white-and-bluer. And as a child of the anti-establishment `60s, it's done a lot toward helping me understand why we Americans do what we do. It's the best history book I've ever read, the best history course I've ever taken or taught. I'm buying it for my home library for my grandchildren to use as a resource. We're also using it as a resource for a book on urban planning.
