Legal and general, ok as long as you're not ill!

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Do not help when you need it most

...My husband became self-employed about 8 years ago and with the onset of him going it alone, this meant that we would loose the H.S.A. cover his employer gave him. A fellow IT contractor put my hubby in touch with this gentleman who arranges cover for fellow IT self-employed bods. Amongst all the other policies we took out to safeguard our future and that of my children, was one for private health care. We were told to go for LEGAL AND GENERAL ASSURANCE SOCIETY for their health care plan. This policy appeared to be family friendly and as long as you are not over 74 years of age, then they will give you cover. Legal and general have been around for more years than I care to remember so we thought yeah ok, we can trust them. We checked the website out, which is www.legal-and-general.co.uk and the company seemed quite genuine...

Legally Blond

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...Legally Blond is a great and girly film starring Reese Witherspoon about a dumb blond Beverly Hills type girl who is obessed with pink and loves her doggy (a real steriotype rich blond) who gets dumped by her snobby boyfriend who is headed for law school, so she decides to follow and enroll and prove to him that she isnt just some dumb blond like he makes out. In this film you see Elle go from being a typical student serority girl and then making the transformation into a law student with a difference. This is a really funny film that has lots of famous actors in it including Reese Witherspoon, Matthew Davis, Luke Wilson and Selma Blair. I thought that this was a great girly comedy for a night in and a film that proves that blonds are no dumber than the rest of us. Its defiantly worth a watch, especially one for the girls...

Review of Legally Blonde (DVD)

Its legal already!

Advantages: Its there if you need it
Disadvantages: drugs

...'m concerned it's patronising to say they aren't capable of choice. The idea that British guys wouldn't have noticed the chains, or, indeed the girls not telling them about the chains, seems absurd. In fact many of the girls who make trafficking claims of abuse use the eventual arrest to try and secure green card immigration status in the U.K., so they can't be sent back to their country of origin under those human rights laws. There are even compensation payouts to girls who are proven to be trafficked. The loop-hole which allows the girls to claim they have been trafficked is likely to be closed down by the Home Secretary. It was the same again in Wales were 88 girls of legal age were taken into custody after coordinated raids by the police of which 76 "disappeared" from social services soon after. Where I do get angry is when kids from places...

Review of What is your opinion about legal prostitution?

Legally Bland

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Too many to mention

...OK. I'll be honest with you from the start. I'm a bloke in my late 20's, into martial arts, beer and Nine Inch Nails (the band, not the things you buy at the ironmongers). So what was I doing watching what any self respecting male could only refer to as a chick-flick? well, you see, I have a wife... ...Yes, she made me watch this film, and I may never, ever forgive her... Don't get me wrong, I'm not against the chick-flick as a genre! I've also watched teen movies in the past that have had me nearly wetting my pants with mirth, but Legally Blonde just left me cold (and the wife wasn't impressed either!) A shame, as I have to admit that Reese Witherspoon absolutely acted her socks off, but just couldn't lift this dire movie out of the dung heap. So, how bad is it? Well, where shall I start? So very many options... Shall I...

Legally Blonde

Advantages: Funny
Disadvantages: None

...What do you do when you go out with your boyfriend and you think he’s going to pop the question and ask you to marry him but it turns out he dumps he dumps you? Well if you’re like me you’d probably cry, slob around in your worst clothes and eat nothing but chocolate all day for the next 3 months, but eventually you will get over it, but, if you’re Elle Woods, played by Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde you decide to follow him to Harvard and become a lawyer. This film is one for the girls, and if you’re blonde, or have ever been told you’re not good enough to do something then you will totally relate to Reese Witherspoon’s character. Elle Woods is from Beverly Hills and has the looks, figure, clothes, dog and boyfriend every girl wants to have, but when her boyfriend Warner Huntington...

Review of Legally Blonde (DVD)

This Blonde is Legal... and I can Prove it!

Advantages: Direction, Witherspoon, funny
Disadvantages: Basically still a one-joke movie (albeit a good one!)

...Legally Blonde is an essentially one-joke movie (a dizzy blonde making good in an environment where traditionally only smart people succeed), but it's written and directed with enough verve to make it work, not to mention the endearing performance of star Reese Witherspoon [Cruel Intentions, Sweet Home Alabama, Vanity Fair] as Elle Woods. Elle is a very blonde girl who lives up to every stereotype in existence, and at the start of the movie is expecting to be proposed to by boyfriend Warner (Matthew Davis [Pearl Harbour, Blue Crush, Heights). When she is dumped because, having got into Harvard Law School, he needs someone "serious", she decides to get into Harvard herself to win him back (despite the fact that academia is? to put it kindly? not her strong suit?) While there she meets Warner's frosty fiancé (he moves quickly) Vivian...

Cutesy Pie Legal Eagle

Advantages: It's finished
Disadvantages: Everything

...disappointing when you think about it, but equally it makes you proud to be a Brit. Having said that there?s some funny moments, I?m afraid that they are just that, literally moments where you might smirk if you forget yourself ? imagine paying out good money to see something like this in the cinema ? you?d be so bloody pissed off it?s not true. Ah well, it?s summer, this is a good time American movie set in the summer, where the sun always shines and your buttocks clench embarrassingly together as Witherspoon offers more of her trite one liners and simpering homilies ? would you want her defending you on a murder charge? Would that she was defending the witless losers who were responsible for Legally Blonde or Unimaginably Bland to be more exact....

Generally Chaotic

Advantages: Multiplayer, nice animation, quirky
Disadvantages: Pales into obscurity versus todays technology

...I decided to write a review of this seeing as I've never met anyone else who has ever heard of this bar my own brother. we used to while away the time on this simplistic army game. The game is named after one of the storyline's main General's. The conflict in question is between the blue forces of 'General Chaos' and the red troops of 'General Havoc.' The game is a very cartoony offering from EA, released in 1994 on SEGA Mega Drive. It is a mulitplayer compatible game and two players can play either co-op or against each other, and if I'm not mistaken, it was also possible to play 4 player with use of the special multiplayer pads. I no longer own this game and as a result am reviewing this from hazy childhood memory. The two main game modes are firstly a kind of 'campaign mode' where players compete against the computer for specific...

General Overview

Advantages: Exciting, Fast, Good Graphics
Disadvantages: None

...and options to make it as challenging or easy as required, so as to be suitable for anyone. When playing the game you really do feel as though you are driving the car. It is a fun, cheap and legal way of making high performance cars go as fast as they can. This game is sure to be a massive hit and in my opinion, definitely worth the investment....
