Hehe....but we "have" to have CNBC on....

Someone would get rich inventing a simple auto-mute that would mute a tv's volume anytime it went to commercials...I know I would buy it...

"The ad's on CNBC for the "My Discount Broker" place really REALLY suck."
gambit, i agree. i mute the volume. but the one i really, really hate is the wall street journal ad where the guy is way up on a skyscraper, walking over to the edge of a beam. jeez, i hate that! if i had the power, here's how i'd alter that ad... "what would you give for confidence? what would you give for the knowlege it takes to move with certainty through every business day? what would you give if i suddenly began flapping my arms and leaped to my death from this I-beam?"
thanks for permitting me to get that off my chest...
