One more thing: God forbid Alina Cho & Co. could take time during those hourly news updates to illustrate what chumps Mister/Miz Clinton are for cutting those Puerto Rican murderers out of the Federal Pen. I'd expect slanted reporting out of CNN, however, I hold CNBC to a higher standard. This is not a partisan issue...it is simply a matter of common sense...when terrorists kill someone, you don't tell them, "ok, you can get released if you get your people to pledge allegiance to Hillary's campaign." Anyone wanna take bets on how long these guys wait to blow up more stuff once they are released? This will make people forget about Willie Horton. And, inevitably, when it happens (which you know it will), somehow the Clintons will try to blame it on a vast right wing conspiracy. The Clintons have done plenty of sickening things while in the White House, but this one takes the cake. Meanwhile, I read where Rosie O'Donnell is one of their biggest recent supporters in the NY senate race. Oh, ok...I get it...it is taboo to carry a gun for your own personal protection, but blowing innocent people up with explosives is perfectly okay. Maybe Rosie needs to take a permanent vacation to Libya or Iraq.

Good points all of them. But I was not worried about breaking the skin (as I will be wearing a Geraldo Rivera Halloween mask) but the board I had in mind was some good ole' Texas pine. Vita: "All you need is one share of stock" R.E.B.: "Will you please shut up Vita?" Vita: "You can pick from the top companies" R.E.B.: "Vita, we are sick and tired of your dumb-ass commercial." Vita: "These companies have been paying dividends for a thousand years." R.E.B.: "Vita, I'm not going to ask you again." Vita: "See how easy it is to trade without a broker" R.E.B. gets into his Mark McGuire "home run commin'" position and takes aim for the big crack between Vita's two front teeth... WACK ! WACK ! As Vita's head does a "360" shrapnel flies everywhere. The 2x4 of Texas pine is no match for Vita's hard head - one of Vita's teeth strikes R.E.B. in the forehead (not to worry, R.E.B. is O.K.). Vita does a swan dive into the carpet of her recording studio...THUD! As she falls, she takes about 500 copies of her stupid newsletter with her. The room is a complete mess. R.E.B. wipes his prints off the board, takes off his Geraldo Rivera halloween mask, and leaves the room to a heros welcome. The applause is deafening. "Hip-Hip-Ho-Ray" chants the crowd as R.E.B. walks slowly through the crowd shaking hands. CNBC, as we know it, is saved.
