Stocks

[BART]

Looking to play a little in the stock market but when it comes to stock, i'm retarded. I have some cash I want to invest and was just curious if anyone dabbles or can give me a crash course. Some people tell me to go with blue chips, but i'm thinking about toyota... their in trouble with the recalls so maybe now is the time to buy into them cheap. Like I said, I know nothing so any advice/thoughts would be appreciated.
