Review Icon what5015om reviewed Microsoft Network in National Internet Service Providers:
Yukk! Tried it and found it to be lacking in every way imaginable. Not to mention the fact that when I uninstalled it it left an installation icon that could not be deleted. I called Microsoft and they said "it can't be removed." So, every time I accidently clicked on it, I was reinstalling their crappy service! Nice trick. Should be illegal. I finally figured out a way to get rid of it for good (had to go to an I Hate Microsoft Website...sad, huh?) and I warn everyone about this (should be illegal) practice. Not to mention the fact that I deeply resent microsoft selling software with added internet features that can ONLY be utilized if you're on Microsoft's service. Can you say unfair monopoly?!

Review Icon what5015om reviewed AOL in National Internet Service Providers:
Get rid of the deceptive pop-ups (you know, you're typing along and don't realize at first that a pop-up has appeared, and next thing you know you've said yes to something, or switched sites etc.) For convenience AOL can't be beat. Of course, I'd be willing to switch if something better came along that didn't cost as much. But that may be asking a lot, since an ISP has to support itself somehow.

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Sony SVR 2000 with TiVo in DVRs / PVRs:
I love Tivo and like dharmamomma said we will never watch TV the old way again (and like it. There is only one thing wrong with it; it doesn't have a direct connection with our digital cable so sometimes the channel doesnt change and we miss our show! That really sucks....:( Other then that its pretty great.

Review Icon what5015om reviewed New Orleans, Louisiana in Gambling Destinations:
When I want a quick gambling-only getaway, I head for Tunica, MS. When I can afford it, I fly off to Vegas. But when I want to really experience a great locale with some gambling on the side...New Orleans can't be beat!

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Las Vegas, Nevada in Gambling Destinations:
Too far to visit often, but when I do I always have fun. I miss a lot of sleep, but there's time for that on the flight back home... Its just unbelievable how much there is to see and do, and not just the gambling (though I do enjoy craps and blackjack!). Flying in at night is an awesome sight, though when I first saw Vegas from the air it looked so much smaller than I imagined. But BOY can they pack a lot of 24 hour fun into a relatively little package!

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Tunica, Mississippi in Gambling Destinations:
I started making the 4 hour drive to Tunica back when it was just a couple of casinos in the middle of nowhere. Had to stay in Memphis because there weren't enough rooms, but still had a great time. Now its like a mini-Vegas, even has stuff for the kids to do, though I don't recommend arriving expecting 24 hr entertainment for the kids while you ignore them gambling. That's just sad. Vegas is too far to visit often, but Tunica is a perfect weekend getaway (or midweek, for that matter!)

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Hardee's in Fast Food Chains:
As far as service goes, pretty much like all fast-food places: quick when the vererans are working, slow when you get trainee-night. But Hardees new $6 burger (that's just the name, not the price) is the BEST fast food burger, bar none. I've never eaten much Hardees because we have so many BK's & Mc's around closer to my home. But I now drive several minutes further to get this new $6 burger! A REAL hamburger, with REAL fixings. Yum. I hope its not a limited-time thing, because its my favorite fast food stop. Oh, and I wish they'd bring back that pork chop sandwich. I liked it sans tomato, and sometimes ate them for lunch 3-4 times in one week!

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser in Facial Cleansers:
Inexpensive enough to use all over (I buy it at my doctor's office's pharmacy in a giant bottle for $9!) and the only thing that has NEVER been too harsh on my skin. Takes off my make up just fine (I don't wear much), and leaves my skin soft and clean. I've tried everything, including Clinique's very expensive "regimine" - which, by the way, ended up being the cause of a skin reaction that I went to my doctor for...where he recommended I try Cetaphil. I'll never waste my money on expensive, fancy, big name face cleansers again!

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (J.K. Rowling) in Children's Books:
Oh my. What a great read! A lot of fun. My ten year old son is devouring this series, and now LOVES to read. He recently said that all day long at school he's counting down until his 15 minute reading break, so he can find out what happens next. This, from a kid with 152 cable channels, who never has to wait for his favorite shows to come on, because they're on SOMEWHERE pretty much all the time. Makes my heart warm!!! I read the book, in one sitting each. Couldn't put them down. Can't wait for number four. Worth the money, worth the hype. Makes reading COOL again. Thanks, Ms. Rowling for an incredible series.

Review Icon what5015om reviewed Chronicles of Narnia Series (C.S. Lewis) in Science Fiction & Fantasy Books:
This series was incredible. Tough to read for kids these days, because of the vernacular and so many kids don't read a lot. But its worth the effort, and, just like in the Harry Potter books, once a kid gets used to the language use, their reading skills are really sharpened, and the increase in the speed w/which they read is phenomenal! HIGHLY recommended.
