lquest says "This is poison, plain and simple." about Splenda Cafe' Sticks

lquest — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 15:58:34 GMT

Like so many others, this product is mass marketed as a "healthy" alternative to sugar consumption.

It continues to amaze me that people are willing to risk their health on the recommendation of a manipulative and often downright deceitful industry obviously and admittedly interested only in their own bottom line -- separating you from your money without conscience.

If you are truly interested in being healthy, take the time to do a little research ... or even to just engage your brain. If products like this actually helped people keep their weight down or made them healthier, doesn't it stand to reason that statistic would reflect a huge shift to less obesity and fewer diseases?

lquest says "Fabulous role model for us all!" about The Oprah Winfrey Show

Some people may focus on Oprah with a (jealously) critical eye ... while all I see is reason to be inspired. Here's an intelligent, determined, and hard-working woman with a persistent vision of greatness who would not allow humble beginnings or cultural biases to arrest her dream. She exhibits a deep comittment to improving the human condition and goes right to the heart of whatever matter she's covering. This woman walks her talk and does a great deal of good in the world ... more than most can claim! I admire and respect this woman and wish her (and the rest of us) many more years of her compassionate, competent service....

lquest says "Why? Really, why?" about Hell's Kitchen

Why? We don't have enough negative, abusive influences in the world ... we need to add another? Please! No intelligence, no chemistry, no point ... just immature, out of control, disrespectful narcisistic ranting. I really don't like wasting my time ... and that's precisely what this is, a distasteful waste of time....

lquest says "Intelligent, tantalizing, sexy, and engaging." about Bones

lquest — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 15:25:20 GMT

This is a great show! The main characters have amazing chemistry. It's rare to find an interesting, non-sappy show that models respect and civility without moralizing, but here you go! Intelligent, well-written plots and intriguing reality-based solutions leave the viewer not only entertained, but also educated. It's especially exciting to have several female role models who are attractive, intelligent, competent, AND sexy ... and a complex male lead character who is both macho and vulnerable. Good work guys!...

lquest says "Intelligent, heartful, creative, insightful." about NCIS

lquest — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 15:15:21 GMT

This is one of the best shows on television. Intelligent, creative, insightful, and full of heart. The story lines are engaging and there is positive chemistry between both the actors and characters they portray. Each of the actors gives their best and models respect and appreciation of their craft. If anything, I think the talents of some of the actors are under-utilized ... like those of David McCallum. It is a wonderful show definitely worth watching!...
