Kiss sucks.

In terms of listenability and personal preference, I take The Stones over Zep, but I tend to think Zep has the edge in terms of pure musicality.

I have pretty much the exact same deal with my Schwab checking account.
I think I can technically bring a check into a Schwab brokerage office and deposit it...but its been fine so far doing it with just the smartphone and the prepaid envelopes they give me.


Smartphone deposits are :slayer:. Such a great idea, and it's particularly great for me, given I had a bad habit of waiting forever to deposit checks through the mail (or at branches way back when I was with BOA).

but how do you make international wire transfers? :confused:


Having never decided to invest in the opportunities presented in emails from Nigeria, I don't believe I've ever had to wire internationally, but domestic wires have always just required a phone call.

I wonder if you're thinking of the Vinnie Vincent Invasion? (They don't suck either, but I can imagine someone thinking they do.)

Hope he did not rule out the sexxy time!


I've never seen you express your feelings so forthrightly. This is a breakthrough.

You're gonna be late for your 1pm. Oh wait. St. Louis, right.


I have to drive across the river to Illinois, actually. But I appreciate your concern. (I will pretend I didn't notice the insult to my great city.)

Rush started out good, but got meh into the 80's. A farewell to kings really wants to be Led Zeppelin.


In The Mood is an homage to Zep. I would agree that some of the 80s stuff was meh. Moving Pictures was great, Subdivisions had its moments. Presto was a solid effort. They still had some good tunes come out of albums after that and I think their new one, Clockwork Angels, is pretty good.

There will never be another Villa though. That is something only young men reaching for their peak achieve. Villa is probably the greatest rock instrumental of all time.

I can't. I really enjoy quite a wide variety of music. Trip hop/chill/ambient/etc. is what I listen to 95% of the time and some of it is awesome.

Wow, I haven't heard that name in, like, forever.

First yes. Second, I would have agreed with in 1982 or so.

Easy, when you're a socially-responsible Economic Nationalist community-minded locavore.

However, no. Classic rock is not the end-all be all. There's classical.

There's this as well. Makes bathtime go a lot smoother.
