Tom Costello continues his quest to walk around the NASDAQ screen like a blind man without a cane. My biggest holding (CBMI) is the second highest volume on Nasdaq and up 24% on merger news...yet no mention from Costello...heck, due to the merger, it now even has the current "hot words" on Nasdaq: "genomics." geez Tom, what's the problem?

CNBC = The As Well Network. As well, it seems everybody at CNBC, as well, has fallen as well into the habit of overusing as well, as well. As well, they start most sentences with it. They end sentences with it, as well. They even, as well, stick it in the middle of sentences. As well, do you suppose, they are so silly as well to think it makes them sound smart, as well? I am afraid, as well, that it can only be a matter of time, as well, before they start sticking it as well into the middle of words, or even non-words, as well. Irre-aswell-gardless, it makes them sound dopey and pretentious, as well.
