Never one to do anything ordinary, my husband came home from a visit with his sister, in 1995, with a new obsession.  After a couple of hours in rented rollerblades at a city park he decided that he wanted to rollerblade long distances. He thinks that 20 miles for an outing is about right, and sometimes skates to a nearby town.  This includes hills, real hills!  I think he is jus...

Every once in awhile I go looking for a new author. As you know many authors except for Norah Roberts write a book in one to two years. So I like to have a few authors that write in the same genre. So I picked up Blood Blade by Marcus Pelegrimas at Borders. After thumbing through the book, it looked interesting... with a wide variety of supernatural creatures.After reading the first chapter, I ...

  I am not the biggest fan of shaving my legs and about the only thing I like about winter is that I can go longer between shavings as I'm wearing long pants the majority of the time.  I don't let it get to the point of feeling like I have a fur rug on my legs, but ladies, you get my drift, right?Recently I was shopping for new razor blades and was attracted to a brightly colo...

It's a rare occasion when I encounter a set of razor blades that do not cut me, but it has happened. These haven't injured me in all the time that I've used them. Even usual suspects like the sides of the back of my knees and on my ankles have been nick-free.There are two blades on each razor. They are wrapped with microfine wires. I think these are what are keeping m...

The Wilson N-Blade is a comparatively lightweight racquet which offers a great deal of control in regards to spin and placement.  For medium to advanced users, the N-Blade is the current choice of top pros such as Novak Djokovic.  Not however, that he utilizes a highly modified form with led tape to add weight.  Having played with the racquet for about 2 hours or so, it became qu...

I was getting bored of only land-based RC vehicles, so I decided I wanted to get into helicopters. I did a little research, and found that coaxial helicopters were the best to start off with. I asked around the forums, and the E-Flite Blade CX2 seemed to be the best coaxial I could start with. I went to Hobby Hangar and bought one for $190. The manager showed me the basics of how to fly the CX2...

This triple blade disposable razor from Noxzema is pretty good. It has a pivoting head making it easier to shave. Always get a curved handle, they're much easier to use.

It has a cushiony handle for added comfort. There is a p...

I have subscribed to the Toledo Blade for many years and would rate it an average city paper.  The paper is available in the Toledo and Northwest Ohio area for 75 cents for the daily edition and $2.00 for the Sunday edition.  A yearly subscription is a much better deal and gives me the full week for only $2.00 The paper is divided into separate sections, making for easy reading. ...

Shaving can be such a chore not to mention quite expensive. Razors have come a long way and so have razor blades. The objective has remained the same though, a clean smooth shave. Triple blade razors provide a superior shave over single or even twin blade razors. Razor blade companies will sometimes offer great deals on thier latest razor then after purchase the cost of the razor blade becomes ...

The Miracle Blades are truly a miracle. I order these knives a while ago (many years) and use them almost daily. They are just great. I have the the steak knives and all the different choping ones the fillet ones. I am not sure what they are call but whatever they work wonders. So no matter what type of blade you might get it is sure to work. I use mine for everything. And even thought&nbs...

Having been married for over twenty some years, I had used many different brands of kitchen knives. None of them kept a sharp edge. I tried the cheaper ones and the very expensive brands and none worked very well at all. On a whim, I decided to buy a set of these Miracle Blade knives which I had seen on television. The set I won has eleven different knives, a butcher block and a juicer all for ...

These are low-end wiper blades, but they work fine for a couple of seasons.I stopped buying even medium quality wiper blades a long time ago.  It seems that something always happens to damage blades after a couple of seasons anyway, so why bother to pay more money? I’m sure this is not everyone’s philosophy, but it works for me.  So, once again, being trapped in the ice ha...

If you hang around the "Action Figure" department at Toys R' Us long enough, you begin to see grown men lurking the aisle, sizing up action hero situation. These guys are harmless enough, the are serious collectors. They have no shame, offering employees real side money, to go into the stock room and find certain superheroes, that will be worth a lot of money, in a few more years....

Disposables razors are sold by the millions each year. Most women and men use them and often we have preferences toward certain features. Personally, I am not picky about my disposable razors. The only thing I currently look for when i purchase a razor is that it has at least three blades, for a closer shave. Noxema Triple Blade razors are pretty decent razors. They do a good job at giving you ...

I bought 10 personna comfort coated twin blade disposable razors for a dollar the other day, although,  they are not as good as Careone which I previously reviewed at less than half they cost they are a even better value. They are made in the USA. The handle is too light for my preference but the razor them self and comparable to the average bargain brands and at a dime a piece who ca...

I am continuing on my survey of disposable razors with the CVS pharamacy twin blade disposable raazors. They last three days for me and give a good close shave with few cuts. The have a lubricating strip and the best handle design I have seen in a disposable razor. Most disposable razors handle is too small or too light for effective use with my good size hands. Made in Korea. Navy blue and whi...

I bought a Murray 4.5 Horse Power Mower from Home Depot about two years ago.  It has 20 inch blade and a mulching feature with accompanying bag. I have a small lawn and it replaced a similar lawn mower. Though a simple machine it has had reliability problems like losing parts and is very average on cutting the lawn performance. My previous one was a little higher cost and was self pro...
