I will third this ING comment. I've been with them for over 4 years; checking, savings and brokerage account. I would highly recommend.

Okinawa, Thailand, South Korea, Mexico and Canada (buddy).

The Man from Nowhere. Definitely the best movie I have rented in a long while.

I would suggest checking with the local non-profits in your area. They may need straight-forward accounting help, i.e. balancing the ledger, etc. But, you may also be able to creatively gain "finance experience" by helping to count the cash after a fund-raiser (for example). For the record, I...

Agreed.

Nice. I had been kicking around ordering it from Amazon for a few weeks now. The free shipping for a $20.00 order gave me a great excuse to catch-up on some Berserk. Thanks!

For the most part, I researched information and compiled it into some sort of product (i.e. presentations, maps, reports, etc.). While I was in Okinawa I also helped with Anti-Terrorism (back before terrorism was hot on the streets; pre-9/11) and Counterintelligence-type presentations...
