I HIGHLY recommend Fruitables–she absolutely LOVES them, and there’s no junk or fillers in them. Made in USA, calories are reasonable, good all-purpose size, and they smell like “people” cookies–much nicer to have sitting in the kitchen than, say, liver-flavored snacks.

I really loved this video. Toby, Mike, and Kevin share alot about their lives at home and on the road. Kevin gave a tour of his house. Toby talked about the My Friend (So Long) video and gave a tour of Gotee Records (his record label). The live footage was good, but not as good as the “Welcome to the Freakshow” video. All songs performed were on Supernatural except for My Will and Heavenbound. Overall, this is a must-see for anyone who enjoys the music and ministry of dc Talk

This is our second Wii. We bought our first one second hand. This one works great and we can even watch our Netflix instant movies through it with a special CD from Netflix. The Wii remote is the tv remote, too! Many games from Harry Potter to Wii Fit Plus keep everyone entertained and some even keep you active! A great way to entertain and learn.

This is a great little cable. I had missed several episodes of my favorite summer tv show, but found out that I could download the past shows to my laptop. Well, then I had to get them on my big tv somehow, so I sent my husband to Best Buy for a cable to connect the two and whoa! Over $30 for the cheapest cable they had. No way am I going to pay that much money to watch 4 television shows. So I found this cable on Amazon for less than $3 and free shipping! What can you lose? It worked great for what I needed, but might not be so good for fancy connections. Who knows? But I would certainly reccommend it for watching tv shows, home video or pictures.

As I was reading this book I was thinking “Holden Caulfield is such a jerk! He’s disrespectful to elders, he’s blasphemous, he can’t see past the end of his nose, and he’s an aimless kid who’s heading nowhere fast.”

But guess what? That describes me when I was a kid! In fact, it describes a huge percentage of America! And it also describes a big percentage of American youth. J.D Salinger caught lightening in a bottle with this timeless, classic look at American teen angst. Based on the way the story is told, it could have been written at any time during the 20th century, and it still speaks to us today. Because of all the swearing and the potty mouth thinking of the book’s central figure, I’, not sure I would recommend this for a high school class, but it would make for a good book for a college class and something that every one who cares about timeless lit should read.

I should also say that as frustrating as it is to get inside the mind of Holden Caulfield, I came away from the book with a sense of hope, that maybe the kid won’t be a schmuck for the rest of his life after all. In that sense, when I see Holden Caulfield, I see myself.

This is a wonderful instrument for beginners. It might be necessary, however, to replace the chin rest – which is pretty cheap to do – for a more comfortable hold (mine was cut too high making it difficult to hold wit hmy chin). Also, as has been stated, it also migh be advantageous to replace the strings, bridge, and buy new rosin. The bow is okay, but if you have problems with it there is no problem replacing it with a glasser fiber glass student bow. Fiber glass bows are okay for student learners and they’re cheap (a wooden bow is not essential). One also might want to invest in an electronic tuner with a pickup, as this is the least frusterating way to tune the instrument. With these things mind, this is a good instrument for the price – and the sound is equal to that of an expensive violin as far as I can tell. Don’t let the fact that it’s cheap deter you. If you can’t afford a $500 or $1,000 violin, this is a good place to start. This violin is indeed a quality instrument.

I am happy with the product. My library bookcase is completely full, and I could not get another book into it, so this is the best thing for me! I don’t have to get any more actual books. I find I read faster when I use it too.
Good job, Amazon!

Total junk. On the second use it sucked in a string and in a few seconds ruined the beater bar. The “bearings” on the ends of the beater bar, well there aren’t any. It is just plastic. I couldn’t believe how quickly it burnt out the unit. Don’t buy this unit!! Can I give it zero stars? That’s what it deserves.

I bought 2 of these and I can not use them because they are not formatted for the cameras.
