JasonsGypsy says "When it works, it's GREAT! The other 90% of the time. 3 lights.." about Microsoft - Xbox 360 Premium Console

I'm giving the XBox a 2 because just about everyone I know who has one has the 3 light problem with their system. The system is AWESOME when it works. Graphics are great, sound quality good, games are fantastic.. But how can anyone enjoy it, when the system keeps breaking down. My system is off for repair so we'll see how it works when it gets back. According to Microsoft, repair time is 3 weeks including shipping time..

I personally think XBox came out too soon because of all the hype and they didn't spend time testing and debugging it. No wonder Wii is so popular.

JasonsGypsy says "This Place Makes You Think Buffalo Wings Came From Florida" about Wings 'n Things Restaurant - Wilton Manors, FL

My first time walking into this place was back in 1984 with my parents and sister who was a toddler. I now take my son here and it still as good as it's always been. I don't think the menu is any different either and there is no need to change it when the food is delicious.

We love wings and get them from everywhere, Wing Stop, Bru's Room, other sports bars and none compare to Things n Wings.

They also have delicious curley fries (love putting vinegar and ketchup they provide on the tables) and their blue cheese dipping sauce is obviously made there. It's really good, so good I make sure I get an extra container to bring home.

We have always had friendly service but expect it to be busy on a Friday night.. This place is great for lunch!

JasonsGypsy says "My Dog Looked At Me Like I Was Nuts" about Beneful Original Dog Food

I bought a bag of this stuff and when I gave it to my dog she took a mouthful and then spit them out, sorted them with her nose and ate only the red pieces.. That should tell you how bad it was if a dog will only eat one part of the kibble mix. I took the bag back to the grocery store the next morning and got my money back. I guess if you don't have a lot of money to spend on dog food, this is better than some of the other stuff but I myself will never buy this ever again nor will I recommend it to anyone.

JasonsGypsy says "To Die For Burgers... " about Jacks Old Fashion Hamburger House - Pompano Beach, FL

JasonsGypsy — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 23:37:06 GMT

Not for the health conscious, if you know what I mean. But after I ate here for the first time 3 years ago, I haven't ordered a burger anywhere else nor have I fired up my grill to make some. I crave their burgers on a weekly basis and almost feel guilty when I find myself driving across town more than 1 time in a week. Forget chocolate, this is definately my guilty pleasure.

From what I hear this place has been serving burgers since 1972 and I hope they never decide to become a chain. There is a nostalgic feel to the small dining room which slows down time at least for the 20 minutes you're there. The quality of the meat is the best I've ever had. They grind their own and the patties come in 1/4, 1/3 and 1/2 lb. I'm happy with a 1/4 although my son and hubby goes for the 1/3. Their fries are also good and the chili, ham and cheese sammies, and milkshakes. Don't forget to custom order how you want it cooked. They make them medium so if you like well done like I do, you have to ask.

After...

JasonsGypsy says "Best Kept Secret Italian Spot In Lake Worth" about Paradiso Ristorante - Lake Worth, FL

JasonsGypsy — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 23:16:33 GMT

Let me start out with... If you like Olive Garden for it's food and prices, stick with it. But if you are looking for authentic Italian food in an intimate setting then you'll enjoy Paradiso as much as my husband and I do.

We absolutely LOVE the whole yellowtail snapper which is lightly seasoned and then covered with rock salt and baked. I can't tell you how moist and good it is.

If we're in the mood to really indulge in the offerings of Paradiso and Chef Angelo's, we order the four course meal with the wine pairing. If you have a bigger appetite than we do, they also offer a seven course meal.

Our wedding anniversary is just a few weeks away, so we booked the wine cellar table for some privacy. Can't wait!!
