It was a good episode, but definitely difficult to watch. In this episode the CSI team investigates two cases. In the first case a successful entrepreneur in the joke accessories business dies when a cigar explodes in his mouth during a night of celebration in a nightclub. They suspect …

Not a bad episode. I like the second murder case they were working on, the one with the abduction. The first one was really strange and disappointing. Not only was it not interesting, but it did not even make sense.
In the first case a young man is found dead …

Wow, I’ve just watched that episode and I don’t know if it was a really amazing one or a really horrible one. I have only one word to describe it- complicated. I think I’m still dizzy from it. The show has quite a few of the cases where …

Freecycle. At first it sounds like a good thing - a place where you can give away your stuff and get stuff you want in return, all for free. Heck, in many counties and states it definately is. I’ve talked to Moderators in other places. They are swell, easy …

Manhunting by Jennifer Crusie is one of her earlier books (not that early, but predating Getting Rid of Bradley) and seems to have a lighter feel to it.

My wife and I have bought the Lavamat Electrolux Washing Machine 5.5 Kg by AEG a few months ago. I must say that we are very satisfied with this choice. I would like to share my experience of using it with you.
Let me start this review by pointing out …

This was a really cool episode. I think it was a lot of fun and a lot of humour. The only thing is that I did not care very much for the actor who played the frauder Elliot Castro. I don’t know what but there was something a bit …

I watched the movie enchanted with my boyfriend. He was not keen on going to watch it as it was a girlish movie. Since there were no movies available at that time, we were stuck to watch Enchanted. At that time, I had heard many great reviews about it …

Another Tagalog or “Filipino” movie we are watching right now is the movie of Star Cinema for their 15th anniversary, the “My Only U”. This movie is starred by Vhong Navarro and Toni Gonzaga. To be honest, the movie is a bit too shallow. It is about two people …

I am reviewing this amazingly scented body wash from the Body Shop because I got it as a GWP (gift with purchase), and I think I’m going to sprint there to pick myself up a full size bottle! The full size costs $22 for 200mL, which isn’t the cheapest …

Where do government funds go actually? Do they go to projects that benefit the public? Or do the funds simply disappear into the pockets of government officials that seem to have a magician’s ability of causing things to disappear without a trace? Upon visiting the National Statistics Office (NSO) in …

This product is fantastic in its effectiveness but inconvenient in that it goes on very wet and you have to stand with your arms in the air for five to ten minutes, depending on humidity, to wait for it to dry. The fragrances are lovely, however, and it …

I really enjoyed this movie. We rented it last week for my husband and me to watch. I love movies like this. Action and drama combined. The movie had some really great actors, which helps any movies ratings!
Forest Whitaker was amazing in the movie. He is so adept at …

I didn’t like this episode much. It was very emotional and definitely had a strong message about caring and doing the right thing. At the same time there were many things in there which I felt did not lead anywhere. And since they were dealing with the emotional, the …

I am a sucker for a good, strong tasting drink. I’ll happily knock back a tomato juice with loads of Worcestershire Sauce, because it can really hit the spot when you’re awaiting some decent food, but there’s half an hour to go and there are rumblings from the digestive …

I like to have Mentos candies in my pocket because they are very small so I can bring them every where with me. I like almost every different taste of them. I like to take one or two of them if I’m little hungry and I have to wait …
