Just looking too see what online discount brokers the folks at TW use. I have heard some are better then others but I am not sure if this bullshit. I finally got enough money and time to invest some cash directly without going through a mutual fund.

And if so which one do you think you will enjoy more over the long run? I am still thinking about getting a Wii but Xbox 360 has some really good games coming out in the next year. Wii has some very good nintendo games around the corner (Metriod, SSB, Mario) but the 360 has about 10 that look...

I am tired of my 10 dollar coffee maker and the shitty scorched coffee it makes. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good coffee maker? I was searching online but couldn't find any side by side reviews. I do not want to spend over like 70-80 bucks on one also. What type of features should...

After watching episode 3 I had the urge to read a sci-fi type book dealing w/ big space battles and futuristic military strategy. This was my favorite part of Ender's Game and the Star Wars novels I used to read as a kid. Anyone got any suggestions? Their seems to always be at least someone on...

In my lectures this year I have seen a few people using those laptops that have the screens that you can spin around and write/drawn on for note taking. I was wondering if anyone knew whether this technology is any good at this point in time. Seems like it would be damn handy to have all my...

What type of music/bands do you listen to when working out? I find music really helps put me in a mind set for lifting weights. I always end up having to bring my own tunes because the stuff the gym plays is about as stimulating as a handjob from your own grandma.
