I suspect that with Murdoch as well as Cheney, their paramount Evil keeps them alive despite any pies or random heart attacks.

What does anyone know about ING Savings accounts? I like that there's no minimum and no fee, and that it would electronically connect to my biz account.
I would start an account at my bank but the interest rate is sucks, there's a fee and you have to have a minimum bal of $100. And THIS account I'm starting to save for my quarterly taxes, so it will be cleaned out 4x a year.
Thoughts? Other options? I CAN'T keep it in my account; I KNOW myself. It has to be AWAY.

I can't bring myself to feel too sorry about it.
I don't feel sorry about it. I just didn't feel "Woo Hoo" about it either.
For Cheney, what I'd really like, is video of him exiting an airplane slipping on the steps and falling down them in a completely ignomious way and breaking his coccyx. As I've broken my coccyx I know exactly how much that hurts and I feel comfortable wishing that amount of pain and discomfort on him for six weeks.

Erin,
Note that ING has been purchased by Capital One, so this may or may not factor into your decisions. I don't think C1 will take over until 2012 or so though.
I like ING, I find it really convenient. It is an ideal bank if you do not think you will need to contact customer service very often - which I don't. My paycheck gets deposited there and I have several savings account there (and a mortgage!).
I would probably still advise you to try it. Do you need an invitation? I think it will get you $10 for me and you if you use it.
Email me at my profile addy if you want a referral. I need your email address. If you don't want, that's cool too. Just FYI.

I don't know if I need an invite, but I'll sure take one, if you are so inclined! I'm leaning strongly towards it, and I'd love to help a Buffista get some $$!

I have an ING savings account too, and it's been easy to use and a great help in putting money just far enough out of my reach that I don't think of it as money for everyday use. Haven't decided yet whether to jump ship when Capital One takes over.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Well, boogers. Sears brought my new washer and dryer. The washer is fine, but the dryer had a side vent, instead of the back vent it needs. The delivery guys said they had moved it to the side at the warehouse, because the order said to. I didn't ask for a side vent; I didn't even know dryers vented anywhere but the back. So they wrestled it back down the stairs and someone will bring me the right dryer on Friday. How annoying.
Better to have a washer and no dryer than vice versa, but still. Sears, you have not pleased me today.
