Review title: On half of this movie set is great Product review: I'm a huge fan of Tales from the Crypt and Demon Knight is still a favorite of mine. It's funny, smart, gross and well cast. Bordello of Blood? Not so much. But thankfully the set is super cheap and well worth the purchase. Why get only one movie when you can have both?

Review title: Returned two of these that did not function properly Product review: The first unit worked for about a week and a half, then stopped producing mist. Everything else still seemed to function, including the somewhat noisy fan. I requested a replacement that was handled extremely well by Amazon.The replacement arrived and I found the mist control did not function as I expected, like on the original unit. Turning the control all the way down still produced quite a bit of mist. Turning it all the way up produced only a little more. The fan on this replacement unit was also a bit noisy. Everything else functioned as expected.I ended up returning this unit for a refund. Again, Amazon handled this extremely well.I ordered the Venta 205 from Amazon. After a month of use, all is well. The fan makes very little noise, unlike the SPT.

Review title: Successful investing by spending 15 mins a week? Get real, man! Product review: This book will drive all fund managers, good or bad, out of work, if the author's strategy for successful investing in only 15 mins a week really works, which is obviously not true.The only WORKABLE 15-mins-a-week investment strategy I can conceive of is buying index funds by dollar-cost averaging. But, that method, as Seth Klarman said in his Margin of Safety, is paying money to a guaranteed mediocre performance.Back to this book. If you meet any person who claims to be a value investor / disciple of Benjamin Graham / true follower of Warren Buffett and says he does that successfully by spending 15 mins a week, you instantly know he's a con artist and you should aviod him like plague.For anybody serious about value investing and would spend more than 15 mins per week on investing:1. The Aggressive Conservative Investor by Martin Whitman2. Margin of Safety by Seth Klarman3. You Can Be a Stock Market Genius by Joel Greenblatt
