Keeping the thread on topic (CNBC does stand for: Clinton's Nation Broadcasting Company, doesn't it?), I must tip my hat to Liz Claman.

Everyday I tune into CNBC at 5:00 a.m. EST and Liz has been there with bells on each day this week (and last week too, if memory serves me correct)...then, 12 hours later, there she is, still working at 5:00 p.m. filling in for Sue Herrera. That is certainly yeoman's duty. It was kinda weird, I took a red-eye to Vegas Thursday night, and when I got in my room, I turned on the TV and it was on CNBC...Liz was on, with the ticker underneath, and I thought it was a repeat from the night before, until I realized it was 5:00 a.m. in NYC. She seems like a real pro, always entertaining to watch, yet you never feel as though, when she's doing an interview, that she's biased one way or the other.

Even more impressive, she looks just as attractive at 5:00 a.m. as she does at 5:00 p.m. I can't help but remark that she has the nicest stems (legs) of any anchor on CNBC (sorry, but I'm single, so I can say that kind of thing on the Internet without getting in trouble). Thumbs up for Liz!

Need I say more?

Yes! You DO need to say more. One of the best posts today, and probably the week too. Don't stop now, you're on a roll.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. I hate to admit it, but I've forgotten most of the stuff you talked about. It wouldn't surprise me if many others don't remember this stuff and need a little reminding once in a while. (Especially around election day.)

P.P.S. It's amazing how one day Mona's the hottest media item and the next, she's utterly forgotten. Perhaps the cigar people will resurrect her for some stogie advertising.
