Review title: Not his best Product review: This is one of his earliest, and it kinda let me down. A guy working in an insane asylum. Kinda haunting at times, not terribly interesting though. It sounds as if Sekulowski is supposed to be saying some really neat stuff, but it all sounds like a bunch of fluff to me. Not the greatest, but it's Lem.

Product review: despite one reviewer complaining about the dog describing two ppl kissing as "trying to eat each other," (which i myself would have edited out) this book is SO funny and clever and readable that i gave it max stars. after all, it is SOOOOOOOO mind-numbing to read boring, awkwardly worded, or overly sweet books to the kids, isn't it? books that have a heavy handed "moral" or lesson, or ones that don't quite rhyme...or are just plain boring. this book is a quick and easy read, and at one point (i won't give it away) i started laughing and couldn't stop. that face-cracking kind of laughing where you almost can't breathe.i fully acknowledge that it's prob not as funny to everyone, but it was so cute and just struck me--maybe cos i have a dog...??in any case, highly recc for kids AND adults. the best kids media is entertaining to children AND has something for the parents also. and you're the one with the credit card anyways, no!? :)

Review title: Unless you want a throw away phone- Don't buy this phone. Product review: We bought this phone 19 months ago and have been happily using it with great sound quality. As the earclip with the headset looked cheap, we've been using it with great care, but ultimately it just broke. I contacted their customer non-service department and they refused my claim and said it was customer damage. I was particularly insulted as I KNOW we were very careful with it, so I explained it must have been a defect in the material or workmanship and should be covered by the limited warranty. I escalated the call 3 times before getting the manager (i.e. they gave me the run around). The absurdity of them not sending this 2 cent plastic insert piece gives one an idea of how they regard their customers. If you don't want to use the headset I expect you'd be fine. As I need to use the headset this defect renders this phone worthless to me.

Review title: Attractive and well made but... Product review: I used this to cover a patio table and chairs on our deck. Unfortunately it was difficult to get the cover tight around the furniture. Pulling the string to snug the bottom of the cover was difficult. There are two hook and eye loops that I placed around table legs, but even with those a strong wind blew the cover off. I'm going to see if I can come up with a solution to better attach it to the patio furniture.Update 1/15/2013I mistakenly identified the straps as hook and eye. Instead they have click buckles similar to those found in a child's car seat.In order to eliminate having this cover blow off in a strong wind I tilted the chairs forward so that the front of the backs rested against the top of the table. Since my chairs are a spring sling design this allowed me to reduce the size of the bottom of the cover to an area smaller that the top. I also looped a rope through the handles of the cover to tighten it more than I could with the cover's elastic hem cord.
