Advantages: great and classic hits Disadvantages: none
...I got acquainted with the music of Mat Monro during my middle school year through my father . My father is an avid listener of Mat Monro's songs. During those days I also started to appreciate Mat Monro's music . Mat Monro has made great hits .In fact for me, he is one of the best balladeer and hitmaker of the 1960s up to 1970s. To him we attribute the following hit songs which he sung so beautifully; "Born Free","Softly As I Leave You","From Russia With Love","On Days Like These","Walk Away", "My Love and Devotion", The Impossible Dream","Who Can I Turn To","Portrait of My Love","For Mama" and many other great songs.
His songs are mostly mellow and are great expressions of love and devotion. Usually lovers will find his songs attractive. I consider Mat Monro a good singer with a fine and quality singing voice. I do recommend his...

Advantages: Francisco Liriano Disadvantages: Traded Johan Santana
...As Most of you know, I have been a Minnesota Fan in every way for my whole life. In 1988 and 1991 were the highest of high points for the Twins, They won the world series with Kirby Puckett R.I.P. On the day the Twins Won the World Series in 1991, People rampaged down the streets and Were turning over cars, And There was ruckus all night here in Minneapolis. They even started houses on fire and had to bring the police in. I remember that Last Game winning home run that Kirby hit when all seemed lost..THE SOUND IN THAT STADIUM!!! Its almost impossible to describe. After that the twins were the team to look out for..This year though..The twins were the team to Kill. One of the most idiotic trades to ever take place in Minnesota Was this one..Johan Santana, for four fresh not known guys who are not even all stars..I tell you..The Twins...

Advantages: GREAT Music Festival for the whole family! Disadvantages: If you are not a camper - then this is probably not for you.
...and electricity! One area of the festival is devoted to children events. They have a rock climbing wall, arts and crafts and a stage with artist that cater to the kids.T he event does not allow or sell alcohol. It tends to draw a quite a variety of attendees. This is a great event for the whole family. Check out the website for the lineup that changes every year and more information on the festival - merlefest.org.
The only drawbacks in my opinion are that lodging is difficult to impossible to find (but campsites are everywhere) and you will have to park off site and the walk or bus ride to the festival can be difficult.
This is a festival not to be missed!!!!...

Advantages Good Bike scene Disadvantages Not many Gadgets
...Mission Impossible 2 is a good film but lacks John Woo style and creativity once seen in his original Asian film days such as Hard Boiled and killer.
The Mission Impossible 2 Story line adds flare and grace, something that is lost in recent spy films such as James Bond, which has become a package action film with girls, guns and stars.
Go and see Mission: Impossible 2 but done expect to be dazed.
If you want to see John Woo at his finest rent Hard Boiled, and turn the volume UP.

Advantages superb action film Disadvantages story line
...Mission Impossible 2 its jam packed with stunts, effects and twists. It’s a non-stop action adventure, and a surprisingly enjoyable sequel to the first classic. How ever the mission may not have been as impossible as in the first movie. But the well-coordinated fighting scenes make up for the lack of a real impossible mission. For any fans of action films this is a must see. It will keep you on the edge of your seats from start to finish. This will have a limited appeal to fans of slower / calmer films. But never the less you should go and see this....

...M:I-2 was a great action film, the stunts were incredible, but the plot was not real Mission: Impossible. The film should of been more like the TV series and more like the first film. Many critics said the plot of the first film was too complex, so for this film they made it easier to understand, I feel that they made it too simple and the action sequences too outlandish and sometimes uneccessary.
To sum up this film I would say that is a great action film in it's own right, but not a great Mission: Impossible film....
