"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

lcat,

In connection with the banking discussion, I just found out that ING was bought by Capital One and, because of previous interest rate shenanigans, I don't do business with Capital One. I have accounts at a couple of local banks but I really liked the good interest rates and the online convenience that ING offered for my emergencies only savings account. Any one have a recommendation for another Internet bank like ING?

I just found this out myself and I am not happy. At all. I use ING for my envelope style budgeting and it is going to be one pain in the ass to move my $$ out. Luckily I have another bank and a credit union, so I am not totally screwed.

Anyway, I am thinking about going to Ally Bank if ING's new owners pull any crap. My paycheck gets deposited to ING, which I will stop doing as soon as the takeover just so my livelihood isn't compromised due to bullshit.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yeah, I'm not thrilled about the ING buyout, either. I use it for a savings account.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Me too. Although the interest rate has been going down steadily, so it's not as hot shit as it used to be.

P-C, ally bank is a bit better, but until our economy improves, we aren't going to earn much.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy birthday Sarameg and Sox!

Happy birthday, Sox!

I did go for a medium walk, grocery shopped, and cleaned the bathroom. So that's something.

I am having a Groupon day--a massage in a few minutes and then pick up dinner at a take home pasta shop a couple of blocks from here.
