Bought Wii for my husband who enjoys video games and thought it would promote more enthusiasm to exercise as I also purchased the Wii Fit Plus, too. He does enjoy this form of exercise.

I cannot fathom why anyone became famous, or wealthy, for writing this material… “The Catcher In The Rye” is one long, rambling, goofy, repetitive in the *extreme* diatribe…presented as an ode to Borderline Personality Disorder. It’s like page after page after page…of absolutely nothing. And at the end of it all, there is no pay off. There is no conclusion to the story. Don’t hope for one; it is not there.

Holden Caulfield gets kicked out of school (again), but he doesn’t do anything amazing with his time, except wander around for a weekend. He gets drunk, but he never really has much fun doing it. He picks up with a prostitute, but he gets no action. His creepy room mate dates his childhood friend, but nothing whatsoever comes of that either. His teacher cops a feel on him in the middle of the night, but the one he gets is really pretty silly to read about. He gets slapped around some, but never gets the stuffing knocked out of him, nor any sense knocked in. He gets sick toward the end, but he’s not suffering from anything major. And after 200 pages of terror over what his parents will think, you never actually hear what they have to say. All the reader knows is, Holden’s intelligence is upstaged by a 10 year old. Worst of all, after all of this whining & carrying on… Holden doesn’t come to any important new realizations about life, himself, or anyone else.

The realization I came to on the final page, is that just because a piece of writing is referred to as “a classic”, that does not mean it is particularly well written, or profoundly meaningful. J.D. Salinger wrote a relatively small collection of fiction, “The Catcher In The Rye” was his most “outstanding” writing, it was the hallmark of his life’s work, it became famous for some vague reason, & yet… It says nothing. I don’t know how it inspired 3 infamous stalker-killers to carry it around with them, when they went off to do their deeds… Personally, I would be embarrassed to hav

I bought this at the suggestion of a friend who was also taking up running. I used it for several weeks leading up to my first 5K. Very useful in helping you set and keep a pace, especially when running with others. I also like the fact that I can upload the information and share it with others online so they can see how I’m doing. The only issue I’ve had with it is sometimes it drops out GPS signal when close to buildings running or in heavy tree cover. Otherwise it’s a 5 star product.

I planed to use this scale to track the quantity of milk our baby takes every time. Obviously, this scale can not do the job. I did a experiment by feeding the baby with a bottle containing 4 Oz milk. However the scale showed no difference before and after the feed. So I won’t call it precision digital scale. I do not recommend if you have the similar purpose. I have pursued tons of products from Amazon, but this is the second time I write a feedback. There were products I do not like. But not like this one, I feel I am fooled.

Of course, it is still a good scale if you do not care about the precision aspect. It is very convenient to use after all.

In need of reading material for my long flight home from India, I picked this up at the Bangalore airport. You’d think that I would have been much too tired to read, but this was such an engrossing read that I managed to finish the whole book well before landing in SFO! An entertaining, funny, and relatively quick read, I can see this getting turned into a movie someday.

I recently moved to Hollywood, Florida from the Cali. South Bay even though we don’t have Pacific coast waves here this tape reminding me of riding the waves at Redondo. It was a blast learning Miserlou and Tequila. Pipeline is wiping me out, but Im sure I will get the best of it. Can’t wait to check out other tapes hope theirs more like this.

Since I have never received the book to read it is hard for me to review it. I would either like the book or my money back.

The unit is working excellent, everything I thought it would be and more now that most public places have WiFi.
