I listen to all kinds of music however country is my main style of music. There are various artist these days that catch my ear but Tim McGraw is one of my favorite artists. I especially love when he sings with his wife Faith Hill.One of Tim McGraw's album is self titled Tim McGraw. I love this CD. It is put out by Curb Records in 2002. There are various tunes that are catchy. Just like it ...

Everyone has a different relationship with calendars. Some like the tear-off day by day kind. Some like the kind that just have pretty pictures to stare at. Some like functional wall calendars that give you tons of space to write and helpful information like holidays and phases of the moon.  As a fan of near obsessive compulsive organization this calendar is a dud.  As a fan of Tim Bu...

I'm a big fan of Tim Burton, and when I saw this book one day I HAD to buy it! Even though I normally wouldn't want to buy such a small book for $20! Right now you can get it  used at places like Amazon. At first this may look like a children's book, but it's filled with Burton's dark humor, twisted stories, and pretty graphic drawings. Obviously NOT for children becaus...

I'm guilty of late night shopping again, HSN, on line this time.  I needed new pots and pans and have always wanted to try cast iron cooking.  My only experience was with one piece which I seasoned and smoked up the house with, then put through the dishwasher and it came out all rusty!!  I decided to try this porcelain enamel finish (inside and out) cookware set instead. ...

Tim McGraw is one of the greatest country singers out there. Sure, there are probably several others that I can think of, Tim McGraw is one of my favorite singers. I don't think I have heard a song yet that I don't like. He often sings with his beautiful wife, Faith Hill who is just as amazing as he is. I guess what makes him GREAT, is that he is not just a singe, but he makes it known ...

I'm not one for collectibles. I actually warn friends and family prior to any gift giving holiday that my home is a nick-knack free zone. Jack however was a welcome surprise and has become a truly honored guest.The Nightmare Before Christmas Collectible DVD box set comes tastefully wrapped in a big coffin shaped box! Most of that bulk is filled with the styrofoam that hold Jack in place, bu...

Every true fan of the nightmare before christams should on the collectors dvd. One thing that i found to be really great was the fact that it comes with a disk that allows you to play the film on your computer and upload it to your ipod. This collectors set was really worth the wait, the minute i put the disk into my dvd player i could tell how much better it was the color on the film was ...

My infatuation with the Beatles has grown with their music and reading about them, however this book finally gives me a visual representation of them. Images of the Beatles is a featured packed with stunning quality of huge pictures thoughout the histoy of the Beatles. These images are really great, the bo...

The 30 year anniversary of the Jonestown (Guyana) massacre was just recently. There was a lot of discussion about it.  I was quite young and living in Singapore at the time, so I had no knowledge about Jim Jones or the Peoples Temple.  The actual title of the book is "Raven, The Untold Story of Rev. Jim Jones and His People".This book is very well researched.  It was wr...

I am not a big fan of thrillers, but this is one of the most intense movies I have ever seen, and one of my favorite movies of all time.  It may help that I am a huge fan of Tim Robbins, but I thought every role in this movie was cast perfectly.This movie is set in a typical neighborhood in suburbia.  Jeff Bridges plays a widower who becomes suspicious of his new neighbors who appear ...

A terrific movie that underscores the relationships that develop as children and through one event, change the course of that friendship over the years.  Based on a book by Dennis Lehane, Sean Penn's character (Jimmy) is a thinly disguised man on the edge of the law, Kevin Bacon's character (Sean) has grown to become a police officer and Tim Robbin's (Dave) has grown to become ...

One of Tom Cruise's earlier movies. Directed by Ridley Scott (Alien, Blade Runner.) Very visually beautiful movie. Good for sci-fi and/or fantasy fans! Good against evil, quest storyline. This has the never before seen director's cut and the theatrical version with music by Tangerine Dream. Tim Curry is great-his makeup is amazing. The second disk has many special features lik...

Left Behind is the first book in a series by authors Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins.  The cover of the book describes the book as "A Novel of the Earth's Last Days."  This book is one dealing with the apocalypse, as demonstrated in the Bible in Revelation.  Although this is an obviously Christian-based book, I truly believe that anyone who is a fan of action-advent...

“Escape to God” is a great story about a family that moves to the wilderness of Montana in order to find a closer spiritual walk to God.  This book by Jim Hohnberger has been very inspiration to me and my family.Jim shares from his personal experiences very candidly about being an “un-converted” Christian - talking the talk, but not truly walking the walk where it c...

After reading Jim Hohnberger’s first book, “Escape to God” I was wondering how on Earth I could ever manage to gain an experience like he had.  He addresses that and so much more in his second book, “Come to the Quiet”.It’s not really about moving to the wilderness, although many people do end up moving out to the country.  Consider this short excer...

Tim Burton managed to disappoint after a notable beginning, but with the release of Big Fish he clearly captured the magic that many critics thought he had originally lost. A memorable tale of a storytelling father was portrayed in a way that only Tim Burton could have mustered. His classic, eerie landscapes mixed with the genuine compassion of the story made Big Fish one of the most surprisi...

This book is the second installment of the Left Behind Series, written by authors Tim Lahaye and Jerry B. Jenkins.  Tribulation Force picks up where the first book, Left Behind, left off.  The characters are the same- they follow Rayford Steele, Buck Williams, Chloe Steele (Rayford's daughter) and Bruce Barnes, a pastor who was not taken during the vanishing of believers in the fi...

The book Nicolae is the third installment in the Left Behind Series, written by well-know Christian authors Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins.The entire Left Behind series is a Christian-based series that tells the story of the End Times, as told in the Bible's Revelation.  The talent of these two authors is phenomenal though; there is an obvious Christian base to the series, but the storyl...

The book "Soul Harvest" has a description on the front cover: "The World Takes Sides."  How's that for a dramatic lead-in?  This book is actually the fourth installment of the popular "Left Behind" series, written by the Christian authors Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins.The plot of this book is readable as a stand-alone book, but in my opinion it is much...

The excitement that I have come to expect from reading Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins' Left Behind series is certainly not waning as I read "Apollyon."  This book is full of action and excitement, but I feel like this book should come with a warning.....you may not be able to put it down until you are done reading Apollyon in it's entirety!  I finished readin...
