BamafanRTR First of all, before you get a card please make sure that: 1. You have a job. You said you wanted to get a student card so I am assuming you are a student. Do not ruin your credit before it gets started by not being able to pay it back. You may think this...

mysticmaggie @mysticmaggie (2498) • United States 23 Jul 10

Do you know that each time someone checks your credit, your score goes down? That means if you go to a department store and when you go to the check out desk, if the clerk asks you to sign up for a credit card and get 10% off,...

BamafanRTR I have read all the comments and it just cements my thought they we need to teach our children about credit. Think about it, you need a license to drive a car but getting a credit card, eh, just sign here. Credit affects us everyday whether you are buying a...

The book "Internet for Dummies" did not help me much!

blue65packer @blue65packer (11826) • United States 23 Jul 10

I was disappointed it does not tell you how to paste and copy. It doesn't tell how to make paragraphs when you write discussions,it doesn't help you to clean up viruses when they happen and how to bookmark! I did learn more about...

BamafanRTR That would actually be a great title..."All the things you want to know about computers that no one has the time to show you." I love it. I will help you write it! It is amazing how many people are functionally illiterate when it comes to computers.

BamafanRTR The software itself is legal. It is what you do with that software that poses the problem. If you download copyrighted songs and what not THAT is illegal as you are getting something for free that you are supposed to pay for. Think of it as a gun. Owning a gun...

How will republicans deal with Palin in the primary?

thegreatdebater @thegreatdebater (7316) • United States 23 Jul 10

I was thinking earlier tonight about the theory that Karl Rove picked Sarah Palin for VP in 2008. The interesting part of this theory is that it has now totally back fired on the GOP the same way that Rove thought it would lead...

BamafanRTR Actually, they aren't rebuffed for attacking her at all. She is such fair game that she is like hunting tied prey...an easy target. I really don't think she would be a good choice for the GOP as she is very polarizing. People either love her or hate her, but...

lilwonders @lilwonders456 (8214) • United States 23 Jul 10

It is not getting much air time....but banks are still failing at a fast rate. Infact it is at a faster rate than last year. We did not reach the 100 mark last year on bank failures until October. The FDIC seems to really have...

BamafanRTR I think that we have still not hit the bottom and the problem is not the failing banks, as those will be bought by a more stable bank. The problem is the high unemployment and high foreclosure rates that will not be solved if we stay on the current path we are...

BamafanRTR Actually, I keep a book of Sudoku by my bed. Not the easy ones, mind you, the extremely hard ones. The puzzles help with problem solving and logic, while the concentration makes you very tired. Many a night I have fallen asleep with a Sudoku book in my lap...
