  • ANDREE - Womens' air max have never been as good as they were about 5 years ago The toe ...

    Womens' air max have never been as good as they were about 5 years ago The toe box at the end is trying to be some dress shoe, way too pointy, and your big toe is forced into a position that will give you bunions. There is cheap mesh for the forefoot with no support between the end of the shoe and where the last tie ends, making it feel unstable. I used to swear by Nike Air Max, have bought dozens of Nikes since the 70's red waffle trainer came out. Returned this pair and switching brands until Nike comes to their senses and is designed by women who actually run.

    I prefer the FF magazines with a Tiered rating system. They only number the top 10 then it's a group or everyone else. It does have all the information needed to draft but wish it was more organized for quick references during a draft.

    Holy smokes! I've finally found the holy grail for curing cystic acne! I'm a 36 year old mom who has struggled with the emotional and sometimes physical pain of cystic acne for years! I've taken antibiotics, spironolactone, done laser treatments and used every topical under the sun. Nothing has worked, until now!! I love this product and am so thankful to have found it!

  • Susan R. Doddy - I love this mouse pad!!

    I bought a similar mouse pad years ago from Staples that I use with my work computer and I loved it so much that when it was time to replace the mouse pad for my personal computer, I started looking for one just like it and I found it here on Amazon. I probably don't actually use it right, because I have the thinnest side of the pad under my wrist and the thickest part farthest away from me, but it works for me. There is memory foam in it and yes, it does have a bit of a smell for a couple of days (which for some reason I think actually smells good), but it went away after a few days. It isn't really a soft squishy pad, but I like it and it's still softer than nothing and is much better than just a flat mouse pad. I also like the size of it--you have a good amount of 'mousing' room on it. I've used my one for my work computer every single day since January 2006 and I just love it. It wipes clean with a damp washcloth, does not have a pulls in it like my old gel mouse pad and it still looks new. It also stays put and doesn't slide around. I highly recommend it, but if you really like something that's very soft and squishy, you may not like this.
