LSeverud says "If you can afford monthly phone bills don't get magic jack" about Magic Jack - Magic Jack Phone

LSeverud — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 22:59:26 GMT

I got laid off from my job last August, and wasn't working there long enough to collect unemployment. Since I no longer have any source of income, and my savings have been dwindling away to nothing I can't justifiy paying the phone company an exorbitant monthly bill. I therefore invested in magic jack. It has numerous problems and I do miss my landline and cell phones, however for the price it's worth the little inconvenieces. The most annoying feature is the "echo". Which I think is more like a skipping record. Another one is all of a sudden during the conversation the person on the other end of the line won't be able to hear anything I'm saying even though I can hear their every word as clear as a bell. Which is easily rememdied with a call back. It's caused a lot of laughter needless to say. I also don't like the fact that the caller ID doesn't show up on your phone. It pops up on the computer screen instead. You also have to have the computer running for magic jack to work at all....

LSeverud says "Worst product I've ever used!" about As Seen on TV Smooth Away

LSeverud — Wed, 13 May 2009 16:45:46 GMT

First of all it's overly priced. Smooth Away claims to remove hair instantly and pain free. Total LIE. If you follow their directions to the tee the hair will not come off at all. They recommend repeating the steps if it doesn't work. I had to repeat the steps several times with little effect. Actually using the product was the worst mistake ever. My legs continually itched for three consecutive days, no matter what I did. It was a horrible experience. I'll be sticking to shaving from now on. My advise is: NEVER try this horrible product!!!!!!!!

LSeverud says "It's like a miracle" about Spring Valley Triple Strength Glucosamine Chondroitin plus MSM

LSeverud — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 21:09:11 GMT

When I was in my thirties I started having trouble with my knees. I found I could no longer ride my bike the pain was so bad. I started taking Knox nutra joint, but didn't really notice any difference. Then my mom told me about this new stuff she was on called Glucosamin Chondroitin. I started taking it, and after awhile thought I'm going to try to ride my bike. I did, and was amazed to find I no longer had any pain in my knees. Every thing was going fine for many years until I was in my late fourties. I had been taking so many different supplements and vitamins that I didn't notice I had run out of my Glucosamin Chondroitin. I don't even know how long I had been out when my knees began to hurt all the time, which is when I realized I had run out of Glucosamin Chondroitin. I raced right to the store to buy a new supply, and began taking it the way I had before. Single strength twice a day. More and more time went by, and I wasn't getting any better, actually getting worse to the point I...

LSeverud says "not so comfy" about Serta Mattress

LSeverud — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:25:03 GMT

So here's the story, a couple of years ago I split with my husband and he took our bed which had a sealy mattress. I was so comfortable, and actually made my neck and back pain go away. I sure miss that bed. Long story short I had to go buy a new bed and got a serta, big mistake! I've only had the 2 years since the split, and already it's sagging in the middle, my neck and back are in worse shape than ever, and sleeping is tough to say the least.

LSeverud says "I love it" about Hoover SteamVac - Supreme Upright Vacuum - F5832-910

LSeverud — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:16:06 GMT

I love my Hoover Steam Cleaner. I've been using it for about 15 years, and it still works as good as the day I bought it. It does a wonderful job cleaning the carpet.

LSeverud says "Worked great when I first used it." about Hoover - Fold Away Vacuum

LSeverud — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:12:13 GMT

I love that you can fold it away and tuck it into the closet, however after the first couple of uses it loses suction due to the clogged filter. Very disappointing! I'm going back to the old fashioned bagged vacuum.

LSeverud says "No other can compare" about Zyrtec Allergy Medicine

LSeverud — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 18:35:49 GMT

My doc first put me on Zyrtec 14 years ago, because I'm allergic to most other allergy medicines. He had the same problem and found with Zyrtec he had no ill affects and told me to try it. I've been on it ever since....

LSeverud says "I love my refrigerator. " about Hotpoint CSX20BA Refrigerator

LSeverud — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 12:15:07 GMT

I've had my Hot Point side by side refrigerator for about 13 years, and it still looks and works like new. I've never had any problems with it, and wouldn't trade it for the world. I hope it last 15 more years.

LSeverud says "It's one of two I absolutly have to watch!" about Supernatural

LSeverud — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 15:36:33 GMT

I absolutly love this show. It's also a favorite of my adult daughters. What a horrific life these guys have to lead. I'm pulling for them all the way. I can't wait for the next season to start.

LSeverud says "It's been my favorite show since it first aired, and still is!" about Monk

LSeverud — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 15:22:40 GMT

I've been watching Monk since it first aired, and have never missed an episode. I hate the season breaks, and can't wait for the next season to start again. I'm a huge Tony Shaloub fan and have also seen many of his movies. One of the best is 13 Ghosts....

LSeverud says "Much better than I expected." about 3:10 to Yuma

LSeverud — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 15:07:54 GMT

My daughter told me to watch this movie. It didn't sound at all interesting to me. I did watch it and was pleasantly surprised. The story line immediatly grabs your attention and doesn't falter....

LSeverud says "Doesn't Clean Like it Claims!" about Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner

LSeverud — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 14:41:10 GMT

The ad for Scrubbing Bubbles Automatic Shower Cleaner is extremely deceptive. They show an army of maids cleaning the shower, and claim the automatic shower cleaner will do the same. I bought one for my adult daughter and one for myself. Our showers look like HELL! And mine leaks to boot. I wouldn't recommend this rip off of a product to any one....

LSeverud says "Everyone wants to see this movie." about The Brave One

LSeverud — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 13:11:18 GMT

I've been waiting for this movie to come out on DVD (seemed like forever). When it finally came out last week. I went in everyday, for nine days, as soon as the video store opend, and it was never in stock. I finally was able to rent it on Tuesday, and wasn't at all disappointed. It was definatly worth the wait!...

LSeverud says "Martian Child is a delightful story based on actual events." about Martian Child

LSeverud — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 13:01:21 GMT

I really enjoyed this movie, and had been looking forward to seeing it, even though a lot of people seem to have never heard of it. It stars John Cussack so that in and of itself makes it worth seeing....
