CNBC has had an interesting day thanks to a.) incredible stock run-up; and b.) Spitzer's red-light follies; and c.) Betsy McCaughey Ross and Charlie Gasparino.

First, this morning, Roslyn Height's own Ken Langone - who was one of the backers/founders of Home Depot - got off this poison arrow at New York's own Hot Pillow Luv Guv (and repeated on-air widely throughout the day: "We all have our own private hells. I hope his private hell is hotter than anybody else's.")

But a little less known is this amusing clip featuring CNBC ace correspondent (and former Newsday reporter) Charles Gasparino filleting former Lieut. Guv Betsy McCaughey Ross. It's quite a spectacle, and Betsy ends up in a total "well, I NEVER...!" (I think she said something like, "I have never seen anyone so rude...") All the other CNBC folks had to apologize and tell poor scandalized McCaughey, "that's our Charlie!" (Note to self: Be nice to Charlie, or never do on-air interview with Charlie...)
