Reviewing the Regency 18 Antique Mahogany Electric Fireplace -
- Joel HendonAfter years of desiring a fireplace, my wife had about thrown in the towel as far as getting one was concerned. I love them too, but to get a wood or coal burning one installed is far too elaborate and expensive for our budget, not to mention the polluting emissions from them and, I think more...

Review Of The Innovative Honeywell HZ-817 Electric Heater - Joel Hendon
I retired from Honeywell, so I can tell you in advance that I am prejudiced toward their products. Any product where I have a reasonable choice as to what I want, I will choose Honeywell. And, it is not merely that I worked for them and part of my sustenance is yet from their coffers, but folks... Submitted 2 years 108 days ago.
Movies: District 9 and the Watermelon Man - Jon Searles
In 1970 a movie titled the Watermelon Man was directed by Melvin Van Peebles and starred Godfrey Cambridge. The movie was billed as a comedy/drama and I remember watching it when I was 9 years old. The reason I remember it is because it was a movie that started to build my first opinion of race... Submitted 2 years 178 days ago.
I have a bundle package with the cable company to get better rates for high speed Internet and telephone service. Television is included in the bundle so I get more channels. I despise having to pay for television but it costs less to have it as a bundle. I don't like this type of manipulation... Submitted 2 years 185 days ago.

Lands' End Products Are Terrific - Joel Hirschhorn
As a cynical consumer I am pleasantly surprised when I occasionally discover a retailer that offers products with exceptional quality. So I eagerly offer to you my strong recommendation to seriously consider the clothing sold online by Lands' End. There simply is no question that the company only... Submitted 2 years 259 days ago.
Thank You Leonard Cohen - Joel Hirschhorn
The other night I went to a Leonard Cohen concert. I have never seen a huge audience over a very broad age spectrum so completely enraptured, impassioned and wild over an entertainer, especially one that has never in a very long career been embraced by the mainstream music industry. At age 75... Submitted 2 years 273 days ago.
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers - a Must Read, Epecially for Avid Mystery Readers - Teresa Ortiz
I am not one for romance novels. They are much too predicable, and everybody lives happily ever after. I much rather read a "Who-Done-it" kind of story with a lot of twists and turns, and with any kind of luck, a happy ending. So when a good friend of mine encouraged me to read Redeeming...

Love To Write, Join SearchWarp - Gary W. Halsey Sr.
The funny thing about writing is you can say and express your thoughts, aspirations, and feelings pretty much any way you want to say it. Will folks read it? We can only hope so.

Review: The Polar Express (2004) - Jeff Brown
If you've come to this one late, haven't seen it yet . . . I envy you. Having seen it over twenty times with the family, I wish I was able to see it again and again fresh each time to fully experience the wonder, the magic, the story. If you grew up in the Northeast, this movie reeks of the magic... Submitted 2 years 300 days ago.
Review: Tuesdays With Morrie (2003), Mitch Albom - Jeff Brown
This was huge when it came out, a national best seller. Why? Because, as the author states, too many sleepwalk through life not aware of most of what they seek is pointless and unfulfilling. When business owners take their lives after failure and short lived success, when bilkers of... Submitted 2 years 300 days ago.

Review: Author and Get Rich: How to Write a Money-Making Book in Only 12 Hours (2007), Glen Dietzel - Jeff Brown
OK, let's deal with that 12 hours first. You are not going to write any book of considerable complexity that explains your business system in 12 hours. What Dietzel is talking about here is the actually writing time, if you write fast too, but you have to do leg work first: pre-writing, planning... Submitted 2 years 301 days ago.
Review: Life's Golden Ticket: An Inspirational Novel (2007), Brendon Burchard - Jeff Brown
OK, first of all, let me tell you HOW I gave this book two stars. It's actually an average. I gave it 1 star for the story and 4 for intent. Since I can't give halves, it gets a 2.

Review: Consilience the Unity of Knowledge - Jeff Brown

Why Pay for Microsoft Office When You Can Own Open Office for FREE? - Mogama
On April 12, 2009, I visited the official Microsoft website and found this Microsoft Office offer: "Buy Office Home and Student, $149.95".

Mozy Is A Terrific Product - Joel Hirschhorn

"Hello Americans, This is Paul Harvey" were the words I heard, at exactly 12:00 noon, everyday during my lunch hour when I worked at Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Marine Division, in Sunnyvale, California.

Gourmet Coffees For Coffee Lovers, A Review - Joel Hendon
