can you do me a favor? next time you decide to buy an option, ANY option, pm me with the details, so i can be the writer.

i'm skeptical of these stories about getting zapped by holding a mouse in a storm. first, the surge suppressor should reduce the electricty coming into the computer. second, the electrical path through the computer and the wires to the mouse are so thin that they don't carry much current. if...

"Borrowers whose credit scores are below 660 out of a possible 850 and haven't risen by 10 percent since the loan was sold will be given priority. Those with scores above 660 will be more closely scrutinized to determine whether they are eligible or must continue making payments under...

why the hell would someone start a family when they can't afford to? and after they make that terrible decision, they expect the government to raise their wages to bail them out? here's an idea for you. if you have no marketable skills and expect to earn too little to raise a family, then...

btw, i know a couple of people who earn low wages. the reason their income is low is because they have absolutely no marketable skills. raising their wages doesn't change that. the world doesn' t owe anyone anything. you earn it. you wanna make more? learn a skill that employers covet...

et people are against it because many people here are free-market oriented, not socialists like yourself who want a meddling government. let me guess, you also like rent control and bailing out "victims" of greedy subprime lenders.

are there any websites that firefox cannot view? i remember many years ago when netscape couldn't view some sites that IE could.

since when is anyone entitled to move to california and live their version of their dream? you earn you way through life, you aren't entitled to sh*t. there should be no minimum wage. btw, if you felt you were underpaid, why the hell did you work there?

ideally you should have two computers: one for trading and one for surfing, etc. but i occasionally travel and it would suck to carry two laptops around. it occured to me, what if you had a dual-boot laptop (both partitions are windows)? one partition for trading, one for surfing. would...

does anyone here use aftermarket docking stations? (the kind that hooks up to your laptop's usb port.) i want to get one but almost every review i've read says they suck. targus, toshiba, & startech are some brands. are there any that are good? a requirement is that it has the ps/2 mouse &...

i don't know any brokers that allow you to trade with insects. you'll need to deposit cash.

all political correctness aside, sub-prime people generally are scumbags. i've dealt with poor-credit folks in one way or other over the years, and they're basically dead-beats who you couldn't trust with $10 let alone $200k. it's funny how politicians get on their soapbox and say how we...

freezing interest rates won't help much. the main reason the monthly payment goes up dramatically is because they convert from negative-amort into full principal+interest payments. preventing their 6% rate from going to 8.5% only does so much. unless they are allowing the borrower to...

i suspect you're gonna be up for the 2011 darwin award

wow tough guy, that would be the dumbest thing since the cop's cam has your license plate and you wouldn't get far before 200 cops are after you. you would die quick death at the hands of a swat team whose orders would be shoot first, ask later. they would just say that you threatened them...

wholesale oil price accounts for approximately 50% of the retail cost of gasoline. at $3.50/gal, that suggests an oil price of $74/barrel, so there's a $23/barrel "premium" right now. people had been saying that once gas reaches $3/gal, people will cut back on driving but they havent. i...

pats won't go undefeated. you heard it here. if they win the next 3 games, they will be #1 seed and have nothing to play for, while the giants will be fighting for a wildcard spot. so in the final game, it'll be the patriots backups against highly motivated giants starters. giants will...

the cop should have explained to him that signing the ticket only means you understand the charges and you can still fight them in court. the guy shouldnt have walked away when he was told to stop and turn around. actually that screaming, annoying girl was the one who should have been...

agreed.. my rental properties have been performing very well the last few months. occupancy is 100%. as soon as a tenant moves out, i have applicants begging to move in, even with a rent increase. it was very different from 2005-2006.

alternatively, you can build your own system by using a motherboard that has two pci-e x16 slots.
