Fun With Amazon Reviews

Carlos Etstevez is the best estevez

I'm assuming Charlie reviewed his own work on Amazon. Quite the ego there, Charlie.

Great songs, great singer, great fun to play.

I like this music so much. It make me happy and I want to run and play in the sun in my cardigan sweater and pick those flowers that blow apart in the wind. The best song by far is the one for Lassie because as they sing the song I can close my eyes and picture the dog running through windy grass on a hot afternoon going to lie down with he master. Lassie was a goo dog and he even got he own show.

Nice folky songs. Pretty good for any mood.

This woman's only review:

One must sometimes delve into the background of an author to acquire that person's worldview and how it molds their material, especially when the material being used for historical accounts for educational purposes. "Private Demons" a biography of Shirley Jackson by Judy Oppenheimer, reveals a plethora of information about the author, including that fact that she was an occultist and active occult writer. This book is written with a religiously unilateral, occcult/rationalistic view. Despite intense political & religious controversy surrounding this story, there was an enormous amount of literature concerning broader aspects of the trials which held alternate views not relayed in many of Ms. Jackson's often innaccurate and spiritually condescending renderings of the account.

Many believed the girls were commissioned by Satan to divide Christ's Kingdom through false accusations. Ms. Jackson mocks these Spiritual leaders by negating their position that the root of the dissention began with the afflicted girls and their occult involvement, and alludes that these leaders were vehicles of dissention in the community, by advocating that the colonists oppose Christian teachings. Spiritual leaders were trying to expose their belief that Satan's ploy was to sow seeds of division in the church. Ms. Jackson makes no tangential, historical reference to this fact, that spiritual leaders believed the root of the dissention began with occult involvement.

Ms. Jackson omits various aspects of the afflicted girl's involvement in occult practices, and substitutes a rationalistic world view to explain the occurences. Rationalism excludes Biblical interpretations and the value of conventions and dangers of popular superstitions. Ms. Jackson does not depict occult activities utilized by the afflicted women to avoid any inference as to the validity of an alternate power. Rather, she alleges that these girls merely "pretended" to be controlled by demons, ignoring the fact that many Christian leaders strongly believed in Satanic influence surrounding these issues.

You will notice that the bulk of the content provided by the author in the "afterword" section expresses her rationalistic viewpoint when she focuses heavily on demonology as a myth, and places blame for the witch trials on religious fervor and intolerance, boredom, psychological pressure, and possible physiological disorders. Ms. Jackson attempts to categorize spiritual leaders as zealots.

Ms. Jackson consistently negates to include accurate historical information throughout her book. Ms. Jackson could not include this information because it would not conform to her rationalistic view. It appears that Ms. Jackson selectively utilized facts she chose to paint the picture she wanted the reader to see by flavoring the historical rendering to that of her own world view. She does this by mocking the power of Satan, and accredits belief in his existence to ignorance. By enmeshing her view within her account of the actual events, Ms. Jackson emphatically and repeatedly negates the significance of a ubiquitous entity believed in by a multitude of religions still to this day. I would not recommend this material to be used in a primary or middle school setting as is has the potential to religiously sway an immature reader. It does not qualifies as a concise, historical rendering suitable to be contained as part of the curriculum in a public school setting based on the conjectural commentaries of religiously sensitive content espoused by Ms. Jackson. This material is more suitable to a mature reader who is readily equipped to separate true historical facts from biased conjecture. Please take notice as to the origin of where this book is listed in the Classified Catalog, Sixteenth Edition, under 100 PHILOSOPHY, PARAPSYCHOLOGY AND OCCULTISM, PSYCHOLOGY, 133.4 Demonology and witchcraft. The rendering is an edited account of history through a rationalistic world view, that is condescending and offensive to any aware Christian reader.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Human Sound, November 1, 2000

This review is from: Feelin the Spirit (Audio CD)
In this recording Mr.Green sets aside his familiar Gibson LS5 guitar in favour of the rather obscure Central American mystic, Sister Alessandra Jorge Diaz (from the order of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour), who proves to be a most marvellous instrument. She is heard strung with traditional gut, and with the more resonant steel, and in both cases she delivers a highly uncommon sound. Mr.Green's uses of the plectrum and of the kapok are very instructive. Mr.Hancock, undoubtedly inspired by Mr.Green's liberties, relinquishes his beloved piano and plays Mr.Harvery Lionel Bally of Rusty Springs, Idaho. Mr.Bally's upper registers are something of a pleasant surprise, but his lower reaches leave much to be desired. When all is said and done, however, all praise must go to Mr.Hancock's well-oiled technique for providing such stimulating accompaniment. Noted bassist, Butch Warren, here masters the art of bowing and plucking Mrs.Eugenie Fillapot, a long-time jazz nut, while Billy Higgins hits the skins of a certain Otto Franz Mommsen, who later filed suit against Blue Note Records for alleged breaches of contract and propriety. Garvin Masseaux sticks to shaking his tambourine, and this can be considered the only sour and conservative note in what is otherwise a highly enjoyable and experimental album, way ahead of its own, or any other, time.

that's a great one

There is no doubt that Cheez-It has made some really classic crackers for all to enjoy. They have had a winning formula for the past several generation with great cheddar crackers that seemed timeless. When I heard they were going to make a mozzarella cheese cracker, I was very skeptical, and it didn't feel like anything that seemed like it was anything that extraordinary. I was right. The first taste of the new mozzarella Cheez-It crackers, reminded me of just how much they tasted like the classic Cheez-It crackers, and I was right. These Cheez-It crackers, taste like the classic cheddar taste of the classic crackers they have been known for definitely. In fact, they are actually made with a mixture of white cheddar cheese into the crackers. Not all mozzarella cheese. They taste alright, but not anything that was a wow factor. If you've loved Cheez-It crackers over the years, I suggest you give their new mozzarella cheese a try.

Price: C+

Taste: C+

Overall: C+

There is no doubt that it has been twenty years since Tetris made its debut as a video game.

There is no question that Nicki Minaj has honestly been one of the most corniest rappers and singers I have heard for the past several years. Musically, she cannot even sing a note.

There is no doubt that when it has came down to Linksys, they have made honestly the best in wireless routers for all your internet connections for your computers, and video game systems.

There is no question that Jennifer Lopez just hasn't been able to shimmer in her music lately.

There is no question that when it has came down to Toni Braxton, musically she has shwon no boundaries for all.

There is no question that when it came down to Maxi-Matic toaster ovens, there are few and far between that are really worth their money, but there are few that are worth their spirit.

Topical!

Oops this is an ILM thread. Oh well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Their Best CD 10 Nov 2009

By Charm - Published on Amazon.com

Kleer is Very Good Band. This CD is the band best. Out of 8 songs on this CD 7 work for me. The Kleer is Late 70's early 80's Band.

What can you add to that?

Okay, maybe he could've told us which 1 of the 8 songs on this CD didn't work for him.

He'd love that one too if he could but every time he plays that track nothing comes out of the speakers but an endless flood of hissing cockroaches

a one-star review of mad max: fury road from a maniac:

Beware - you may get more than you asked for in your popcorn, 17 May 2015

***Spoiler Free***

I was so looking forward to viewing this sequel and keeping a beady eye out for the rumoured cameos of Gibson and Turner, that I decided to attend the cinema's restroom to spruce myself up for the projection.

Whilst in there I was joined by a gentleman in staff attire who proceeded to relieve himself and then leave without washing his hands!

I left the restroom and was appalled to see this same gentleman peering out of the catering booth! He was in the process of making food for the patrons - using those same unwashed hands.

I then asked an usher for the manager. A lady presented herself as the person in charge. I told her about my observation; she then refereed me to the head caterer (the man himself!) He in turn got upset with me and blamed it all on his wife having an affair with the woman next door.

I then joined my party in the cinema and would have enjoyed the film a lot more if the noise level was not deafening. Sitting with friends trying to have a conversation was impossible. For me, going to a cinema is a social activity, so not being able to talk to anyone is not a pleasant experience.

As for the rest of the cinema -

Worn seats - nothing can be done according to front desk.
Décor was old and dated; patch work in walls
Very poor lighting - one could have fell negotiating the aisles
Noisy carts in hallways as umbrellas and hats were conveyed back and forth
Mobile phone wouldn't work in cinema
Bar poorly stocked at a glance
No beck and call usher service after film began

what's great here is the lumbering, ominous music filtered through incredibly clean, tasteful production. listening to Earth makes you feel like something amazing and or terrifying is always about to happen. next time you go to a diner and order the meatloaf special, time it so that "Engine of Ruin" starts playing just as the server sets down the plate.

Question: Can I mount it horizontal or vertical
Answer: JoAnn, you can do whatever you set your mind too!
But no this piece is only able to be hung vertically.

They apparently have someone manning a desk and monitoring fake reviews.
