A CONTINUATION.....FOGHAT?
352818
Agood follow up to vol. 1, using a lot of the same artists. Why do these people keep placing "FOGHAT" on their southern rock compilations? FOGHAT is a BRITISH ACT and a GOOD ONE so, make it right people!

i am a little disappointed in this. I wear glasses when i hunt...and i asked if this is breathable enough around the mouth that if you wear glasses, will they fog up?  i was told, they should be no fog...that is not true...my glasses do fog up...however, if you don't wear glasses...this should be pretty good.

Too bad Forester didn't live to finish it. But we all assume Capt. Hornblower succeeds with honors. Question is does he ever get another ship? Does he rise out of his impecunious state of just scraping by on a post captain's pay?
These questions will remain forever unanswered.

Rod Price is free of Foghat. He is now doing what he truly loves. Anyone purchasing "Open" is going to experience blues free from the commercial contamination which Foghat was forced to endure for so many years. This is great blues. This is Rod Price!

I been a meanin' to git me a new one o' these ever since my ol' one plum caught fire whilst walkin' through Bloody Stump Swamp.  Course it bein' a reg'lar homespun Head in a Box, it ain't had none of this here fine craftsmanship and fancy dials.  It didn't even light up.  Well, not till it caught fire anyways.

Musta bagged me a hunnerd different demon heads in that swamp.  Folks `round here call it Bloody Stump since they say if you mosey on into the water you get your legs tore off by some evil spirit, shore as taters on Tuesdays.  Now that's just folks plain exaggeratin'.  I only know 6 or 7 people done had that happen.  I hear tell one of `em even lived.

Wouldn't even be lookin' at yonder EMF Meter contraption if'n that dang "spectral energy emission" from some kinda "parallel universe" out yonder hadn't a grabbed right hold of my ol' Head in a Box.  Leastways that what my grandson Billy calls `em.  He conjured the box, and he's a goin' to MIT, so he may well be right.  I coulda asked a demon head what they call `emselves when I had one in the box, but they get so ornery when you catch `em I figure they'd a lied anyway.

Billy calls my box a "8th dimension containment field" or some such, but I think he just makes up highfalutin words sometimes.  I mean shucks, it's just a Head in a Box.  Just between you and me, I don't know what they're teachin' kids nowadays.  That boy can build tachyon field whosi-whatsits and total matter convertin' this-or-that, but can he skin a possum?  No, he cain't.  It's a real shame, it is.

An excellent continuation of the series.  Vested in Emily's continuing struggles both personal and political.  She has started something that may be difficult to fix or stop.  We are left with questions...Who is the new head of the school?  Who is the bad guy?  And while I look forward to getting the answers, I can't help but wonder just how long Mr. Nuttall is going to stretch this out.  All good things (and bad things) must come to an end and I hope that our author has one in sight.

I loved the 1st Bonham album but was slightly disappointed with Mad Hatter, the follow-up.  While the modern-rock turn isn't unexpected, it aint half bad either.  Need to give it nother spin or two..

I am sorry to see that Sublime has released another album of tracks that are already recorded, but I still don't think that they are "cashing in" on Bradley's death.  I say "BOO" the man that claims  they are.  I read a review that claimed Sublime had made no money before  Bradley's death, this is a complete lie and if he really knew the band, he  would know that they were HUGE in So. Cal. and that they were being played  by kids everywhere.  They had already released 40 oz. and Robbin' the Hood  before the self titled album had blown up, and these albums made them quite  a bit of money.  The reviewer in question should stick to reviewing bands  that they are familiar with so that in the future he doesn't make himself  look like a jackass!

This book continues the misadventures of Lee and Taro, who have a more functional relationship this go round. This time they're dealing with an extended period of very unusual weather that the Pairs can't do anything about (or can they?) but they get blamed for it anyway. Meanwhile someone's killing off nobles, and Lee is worried about Taro being the next victim. He may have renounced his title in the previous book (See? Nice guy), but the murderer may not know that, and he's still of noble blood. Add some meddling mamas--Lee's, the standard "Are you really happy? / What about settling down?" and Taro's, an absolute viper of a woman who's determined that he will take his duchy back--and you have a recipe once again for a light, fun summer read that isn't at all intellectually taxing. The cover designer should be fired, however, or advised to actually read the books.

Caroline B. Cooney, Fog (Scholastic, 1989)

Fog, the first of the Losing Christina trilogy of novels, is somehow my first exposure to mega-bestselling kidlit author Caroline B. Cooney. Probably not the best place I could have started, as the novel gets off slow, slow, slow. Since it' the first in a trilogy, though, I cut it some slack. This turned out to be a good move.

The story centers on Christina, a girl from Burning Fog Island, off the coast of Maine. The one-room schoolhouse on the island only goes up to sixth grade, so Christina is headed for school on the mainland at the end of the summer. All seems well and good-- Christina has been dreaming about getting off the island-- but when they get over there and move in with the principal and his wife, an English teacher, Christina finds that all is not nearly as well as she had imagined it would be. In fact, if she turns her head and squints just right, it seems quite like the couple are trying to drive Christina's friend Anya insane. And if Anya succumbs, might Christina be next?

A great deal of setup at the beginning for such a slim novel, but once it gets going, it gets going good. The characterization is a bit shallow, but I'm always willing to give a little leeway to series novels where this is concerned, as the author has a lot more room to build complex characters than we see in one book. Not a bad start; I'll certainly be reading the rest of the trilogy. ***

Same problem as this other buyer. Excessive fogging. I suspect that it is because the nose part doesn't fit right and allows excess air to circulate. This mask appears to fit slim narrow faces best. Uncomfortable or completely unusable for others.

I have enjoyed Foghat all my life. When I was a kid every one had at least one copy of Foghat Live! and Fool For The City. But I never really thought much about them until Tight Shoes came out. The real Foghat fans HATED it! I thought that finally they'd put out a record that really bounced. I still like some of their earlier stuff, but if I'm gonna put on one Foghat disc it'll be Tight shoes. It's a little more pop than their previous output, but retains all of the blues-rock guitar groove that made the Foghat name in the first place. Unfortunately, the band's sound began evolving a bit late in the game and this record never got it's due. The old fans of the day didn't like it and nonfans didn't give it a chance. But I really dig it! The follow up Girls To Chat And Boys To Bounce was almost as good (and died just as quickly). I recommend them both.

I really enjoyed the Shifting Fog and the House at Riverton so I had high hopes for Kate Morton's latest offering. I had expectations of a dark gothic tale but this really seems interminable. I'm still only 30 per cent into it but I can't seem to find any connection with the characters. All this feeding chooks and riding bicycles and looking at pies in the oven. Pahleese! When I studied professional writing I remember my lecturer slashing through all my carefully crafted prose of people doing trivial stuff and gruffly saying 'You gotta get rid of this crap and move the story forwards!' Kate's editor (if there was one) should have done the same thing. I sense there must be some purpose in this story and perhaps there is a big ending but it sure is slow going at the moment. I will persist and hope for the best. I'll revisit this review if things improve.

Volume 1 of Season 3 seems to be the last volume which includes George Maharas.  I kept wondering what happened to him.  Todd keeps phoning him and saying that he is in the hospital.  But Route 66 is not Route 66 without Buzz.  I haven't learned to like Glenn Corbett as Tod's traveling companion.  Sorry.  Kathy
