I'm with you one hundred percent on obnoxious broker commercials, James. The one that really grates my teeth is the Vita Nelson 'interview' for the Money Paper.

God bless the inventor of the remote control Mute button, which gets applied to lots of the content of CNBC too.

The Web St. commercial is especially annoying. The Gecko-like character, naming off the likely suspects, looks at the camera and says, "The Fox Brothers?!?"

The guys who started Web St. are two brothers, last name Fox.

Clever, huh?
