Horrible Customer Service
I could not use the chair that they sent me due to the size being to big for me. I went to return the item and it would have cost me $150 to ship it back when I only paid $75 for it. They would not let me unessemble it and put it into a smaller box or send me a return label. So i am not stuck with a shower chair that I can not use and am out $75 due to it. Very unsatisfied with the whole process.
Predictable and boring
A very good friend that knows of my admiration for irish literature gave me this book as a present. Although my predisposition was the best, it was terribly hard even just to end it. I found it boring, uninteresting, dull and full of easy literary cliches. My friend told me it is regarded as an outstanding book in the second half of twentieth century literature in Ireland, but I only managed to finish its less than two hundred pages out of sheer stubborness.Sure Mr. McGahern writes well, but in my opinion it is not only that that counts.
Useful, Practical, Smart
I did notice two typos, and I'm deducting a star for that, but the book was good -- an energizing, informative series of essays on leadership and communication in business and also in personal matters.Masterson uses a combination of personal experiences and research to support his arguments and insights. Most of what he said struck me as true.
A good book on Leadership
I expected a well written book from Masterson, and was not disappointed.Subjects covered from the full spectrum of what it takes to be a great leadser, from manners, to public speaking, to handling a crises or making a decision. While I've read hundreds of books on these subjects, I appreciated the fresh approach, and had several new ideas while reading.All great advice, more than a sales/persuasion book. a compendeum of leadership advice.
Thank You
I was fortunate to see the Roots when they opened for the Beastie Boys in 95' in Santa Barbara, and I was one of the lucky ones to get a free 3 song sample. After basically ruining their first cd because I played it All the time, I couldn't think that they could top it. The Roots not only topped it, they put out a cd that I will rate as one of my favorite of all time. This cd is great from the intro to the outro, and in between is a mix of some of the finest songs ever recorded. My personal favorite is song 15. I say thank you to the Roots for giving me a cd that I can play all the time at any fuction.
Best Album Yet
As The old albums Tended to have lyrics that continually repeated themselves, Illadelph Halflife explodes with originality in Beats And Rhymes. Hip Hop has been brought to a new level. If you were to buy one album from the roots this year, this should be the one.
