Joana, Since you don't have cable, here are the CNBC highlights from today.

Maria: Was on vacation. She looked great.

Michele Ca I have to have more than one last name: Forgot Ron's name and called him Maria. They look so much alike I guess that is an easy mistake to make.

Ron: Proved that what your Mother told you WAS true, you can hurt your brain by standing outside, in the middle of the night, in the middle of winter, with no hat (or hair) on. Ron had a though time today figuring out if 13 is a higher or lower number than 16.
First they gas the guy, then they have him freeze his a$$ off reporting in the middle night from Switzerland. **** Jack @ GE, as a GE shareholder and friend, I say you can let Ron put a hat on an expense account, call it a breakfast if you like. I think it would be good for the company image if we spring for a hat the next time.

Martha: Did a nice job and looked nice in FED red and pearls.

Ted: Looked serious today. Maybe he cut his finger on that survey the CNBC people had to fill out.

Bonnie: Looked killer in black and dangly ear rings. Contrast, blonde hair and black dress, a natural, that woman knows what she is doing.

David: How you doing David, are you alright? It takes a while but you'll get used to it. Give us a good report on AOL/TimeWarner (the enemy) from your lunch tomorrow. This should be good.

Joe K: Joe is really cool sometimes and funny as hell. I was ROTFLMFAO when he did his straight face report on AOL's trip to Tidy Bowl Land. Asking questions, not making statements, LOL! Joe you get the play of the day. Way cool.

Is CNBC's producer's name Andy? And who is the guy that talks to people while they are talking or make a mistake, and tells them what the correct thing to say is? I can't read when someone is talking. I can't imagine reading, watching a monitor and some guy talking in my ear all at the same time. Can you?
I also think the CNBC crew should be allowed to vomit on the air each time they hear "thank you for taking my call" while some guy is in their ear telling them "you have one minute to wrap".
I wonder if Ted David or Bill or one of the gang is ever doing something away from work and they think they hear that guy in their ear?
Well that's pretty much how the day went.
Oh yeah, Since it is Feb. I would like to thank the elk, deer, Yellow Dogs and other signs or omens I use to predict the market. I think I am the only person I know of on earth that predicted the two corrections in January, when they were coming, when to get in, when to get out. It is all in print. Proof positive again that an elk or Yellow Dog can out-perform Wall Street "gurus", they have done it for years.
Maybe if CNBC keeps up the good work I'll let them interview an elk or the Yellow Dogs.
