Sandintoes,

You're right. The questions that I inserted parenthetically (more Fleck, less humor, etc.) were examples of complaints that I have seen from various folks on this thread over the years.

Those are the issues that I think this board can affect. I apologize to the board for my previous rant. I do get so sick and tired of people blaming CNBC and/or the analysts shown thereon for one's incredible shrinking portfolio.

To answer your questions, I enjoy Sue Herrera AND Mark Haines. I also enjoy David and Joe in the morning, except for the times when they tease with a stock I am holding, only to get sidetracked on something stupid like who was the piano player at Nordstrom's, or who was the sunglass-wearing lady in the Old Navy ads, etc. Of course I also enjoy Ted (just in case he is reading this...:)

And most importantly, I don't watch CNBC to find investments. I watch to find ideas. They don't become investments until I put my money down. We all (myself included) need to remember the difference between the two.
