"I can't put in print the words I had for Mark Haines.."

You know, that's the funny thing about Haines. And I like the guy, don't get me wrong (although he too has been quite the rah-rah guy lately), but he'll have some guests on and just tear them to shreds, and yet others get nothing but softball questions.

One thing I have noticed is if it's a company that he owns stock in, they get carte blanche...I think the CEO from Rowan Drilling gets on once every 4 months. And each time Haines does his disclaimer that he personally owns stock in them. Ergo, I think if I wanted to promote my company via a guest appearance on CNBC, I'd be sending Mr. Haines a cert for a couple thousand shares and then wait for the phone to ring.
