djguiden says "This is very good it's lower sugar " about Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix - No Sugar Added

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:27:01 GMT

This is very good it's lower sugar (no artificial sweetners and no taste difference in my opinion), and you get calcium with every cup. the only annoying thing is that the envelopes are together and it is hard to tear them apart w/o having them spill every where. But good nonetheless. The Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix - No Sugar Added is a product that I would really recommend to my friends and family. "Reward yourself with every silky-smooth sip. Enjoy our unique blend of the finest imported cocoa and real nonfat milk. Feel good about enjoying a warm cup of Swiss Miss Cocoa - because it's 60 calories per serving. Take a moment and cover it in chocolate."...

djguiden says "A disappointment" about Superman Returns

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:23:18 GMT

Bryan Singer tackles this intriguing question with grand and sincere strokes in Superman Returns, a mega-budget kick-start to a dormant franchise that represented some of the best and worst that big-screen superhero films have had to offer. Here, the director whole-heartedly tries to honor Richard Donner's original vision of the DC Comics hero while lending new emotional complexity to the world of this adopted alien savior. The result is an ambitious picture full of fervent emotion and nobility, yet missing the charming spark and energy that its predecessors had in spades. Of the things that work is the surprisingly wonderful new Man of Steel, Brandon Routh, who embodies the role in an uncanny performance that adds the right amount of depth for the direction that Singer and his young writing team laid out for the picture....

djguiden says "I absolutely love these skittles " about Mars - Chocolate Mix Skittles

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:19:50 GMT

I absolutely love these skittles i have allergies and because of my allergies to wheat i cant have regular because of the modified food starch in them. I sell these and i can barely keep them in stock then name makes people very curios about them so i easily make forty dollars a day just off these skittles. I found that the Smores flavor tasted more like a Tootsie roll than anything else, and the Chocolate Caramel tasted more like hot cocoa. I agree with you that the Brownie Batter wasn't very good - it tasted rather waxy, like cheap chocolate. However, the Chocolate Pudding was right on the money. That leaves Vanilla, which tasted like vanilla frosting.

djguiden says "My daughter loves it. " about Huffy 12 In. Girls Dora The Explorer Single Speed Bike

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:15:41 GMT

When I seen this bike I HAD to buy it. It was dora and my 2 1/2 yr old loves dora, and also it was on clearance for $20.00!! The price was great. I just realized though that back pack was not on there, oh well, she'll never know. She got it from santa and freaked out, hopped on and she's a pro, just like that. Her first time on a bike, she aced it, this will get a lot of use this summer! I definatly reccomend this for first timmers. My daughter loves it. She can reach the pedals and the ground and has plenty of room to grow into it....

djguiden says "Keeps the kids entertained" about The Wiggles TV Show

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:12:45 GMT

In this era of high-tech expectations, it's wonderful to see that a show that uses silly skits and simple sets and costumes (each member wears distinctive, long-sleeved, primary-colored T-shirts and black pants) can still capture the attention of preschool-aged children. The other colorful characters -- including a polka-dotted green dinosaur named Dorothy who wears a bonnet and eats roses, a friendly pirate named Captain Feathersword, a purple Octopus named Henry, and a floppy-eared dog named Wags -- add even more humor to the show and have developed their own following.

djguiden says "The wonderful life of fun" about The Wiggles: Sailing Around the World

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:10:19 GMT

The Wiggles set sail for parts unknown in this record of the 2005 world tour, featuring the world's most popular performers among the pre-school set. The S.S. Feathersword travels to ports in London, Sicily, San Francisco, and points in between, carrying Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus, as well as the guys themselves, to visit appreciative crowds across the globe. Their enthusiasm is infectious as the gang performs songs about Honolulu, Pennsylvania, Mexico City, and more, teaching kids about the world they live in even while entertaining them with fun, engaging songs, dances, and skits....

djguiden says "my babies love it" about Wiggles - Live Hot Potatoes!

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:07:07 GMT

This performance includes live renditions of many Wiggles song favorites, like Hot Potato, Hoop Dee Doo, Red Car, D.O.R.O.T.H.Y. (My Favorite Dinosaur), and a whole lot more. The best thing is that there is plenty of drama and humor in the performance, in addition to fantastic songs-The Wiggles truly put on a show, and little kids are likely to sing and dance along. This is a high-energy, intelligent performance that families with young children won't want to miss. Approximate running time is 140 minutes, including bonus features...

djguiden says "A great family car" about Ford Expedition - 1998

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 19:00:06 GMT

Great vehicle for pulling my 2300 lb. boat and for hauling people around. We have gone all over America on trips in this. Always dependable. Good job on Ford's part, an excellent truck. I am in construction as is my Ford Expedition; we both handle it very well. It has all the power I need for towing yet a very smooth ride that my 6 month old daughter enjoys. Gas mileage is low, but understandable considering it was manufactured in 1998 when gas prices were extremelly low and fossil fuel shortage wasn't a concern....

djguiden says "I perfer the soft toilet seat" about Ginsey Dora 3-in-1 Potty Seat

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 18:48:46 GMT

My child loves Dora, but she found the seat to be uncomfortable. However, we use the bottom part as stool and the cup part as a play toy in the bath and the potty chair part in our 2nd bathroom that she doesn't use as often. All in all we use it but for potty training purposes we preferred the Dora soft toilet seat. We made a huge mistake in buying this potty seat. The easy set up is this products downfall. If you pick it up to move it it comes apart. The catch bowl sits on top for easier waste removal, which means your child can also remove the bowl. My daughter tries to wear it as hat. I am not looking forward to her pulling that stunt with a full bowl if you know what I'm talking about. I would much rather have to unlock and lift the seat area to get to the bowl....

djguiden says "Starts off great, but it doesn't last" about Activision Spiderman: Web of Shadows PC

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 18:43:09 GMT

Spider-Man: Web of Shadows starts off with a serious bang. The establishing shot finds Spidey walking across a New York City rooftop in slow-motion, head hung down and ignoring the chaos taking place all around him -- soldiers battling symbiote aliens, explosions in the distance, debris flying inches past his head -- while "Moonlight Sonata" plays, gorgeously juxtaposed with the madness of the scene. The entire opening sequence is perfection -- an elegant tutorial told amid a series of beautifully choreographed cut-scenes and combat scenarios that demonstrate Spider-Man's new moves and animations. Most of the game takes place over the course of the four days leading up to those events, but by the time I caught back up to them, I was more than a little disappointed....

djguiden says "The most wonderful thing" about Nintendo Wii Console

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 18:34:14 GMT

I'll start off saying I bought the wii on launch day and so far am more than satisfied with it. This is a great gaming system. It gets you off your butt and puts you right in the game. I love it!! You can play tennis, golf, boxing, and so many other things. The extra remote and nunchuck is a must have!. Once you see how fun it is you will want ...to play everyone that comes over. This is a great system for kids of all ages and adults that will always be young at heart! It was worth all 17 hours in the cold. Have fun & happy gaming!...

djguiden says "great price, but feels like paper" about Parents Choice Diapers (All Sizes)

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 18:29:17 GMT

I do not like the fact that the diaper is really rough on the baby's skin compared to the other diapers that are out there. From my experience, the Parent's Choice Diapers are not better quality. They are made pretty poorly and when my baby was little, we always had leaks. I tried them in like a size 3 or 4 too and the logo was printed on the back of the diaper and the velcro was all messed up. They are very good to give you your money back if you aren't satisfied, but I think they are very cheaply made diapers....

djguiden says "The best pizza in town" about Papa John's Pizza - Wichita, KS

djguiden — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 18:26:23 GMT

The original crusted pizza is my favorite. I have never had any problem with the taste or the timming on getting the food....
