Anyways, here are "sore spot" examples from the media:

1. CEO compensation long-time sore spot

The issue of executive compensation, and whether it is properly aligned with performance, has been on the boil in Canada since long before the credit crisis rolled out.

In September, the Canadian Securities Administrators, an umbrella organization for the country's securities regulators, concluded a two-year overhaul of the way companies disclose what, why and how executives are paid.

The new requirements, such as spelling out how specific elements of compensation encourage certain results, or how much money executives are entitled to under various employment-termination scenarios, will go into effect at the end of this year.

2. Street Skyrockets Despite Low Confidence

Dow Jones surged nearly 900 points heading into the close as investors went on a shopping spree Tuesday in anticipation of a possible Fed Rate Cut Wednesday. All three major U.S. indexes rose over 9%.

The Treasury Department's initial capital investments under its Troubled Asset Relief Program are being rolled out this week, which may have given the Street some renewed confidence.

Sore spots like a woeful consumer confidence report and job cuts at Whirlpool did not dampen investor appetites.

3. Mikey asks for bum inspection

Mikey asked the group to inspect his bottom after he tripped and fell this morning.
