I guess this is a fun thread. Has Becky Quick slept with Warren Buffet? Watching the meeting on cnbc. I feel like every market guy has at one point wondered about that, a friend said many times.

Other interesting thing watching it is it’s very interesting how lucid those guys are in the 90’s. I hope all of you get that same gift.

My vote is yes, on the Buffett Quick pairing.

I think Warren Buffet's greatest achievement is running a giant multinational corporation out of Omaha, Nebraska.

I'm also impressed by the restraint shown by CNBC in putting together a large roster of attractive female personalities without including a single airhead (as far as I can tell).

Why would they do that? It's not like humans have a point-buy character system where being born both pretty and smart is a rare suboptimal build. They are a large national corporation, they can afford to just double-sift all the applicants.

Other news networks can’t seem to figure out the formula. Try watching Fox News on the weekend sometime.

Fox News has a triple-selection barrier. They need to find a right-wing PMC that is smart and attractive.
