I sometimes love "The Street Life" column:

"Who's Buying Whom? Okay, so WorldCom and Sprint have
officially called off their $129 billion merger after the
Justice Department made it clear it didn't like it. Fine, we
knew that was going to happen. Now of course comes the
speculation over who's going to buy what and it's, quite
frankly, reaching laughable levels. Let's see, just today
there was the rumor that BT was going to buy WorldCom (later
denied by spooky "industry sources") as well as the rumor
that Japan's NTT might make a bid for WorldCom. Then there's
the talk that WorldCom might consider buying VoiceStream, if
it's true that Deutsche Telekom is only interested in
VoiceStream in order to get Sprint to the bargaining table.
The most hilariously silly statement of the day, though,
came from Sprint's CEO William Esrey on CNBC when he
declared, "Sprint is not for sale." Hellloooo! You just
tried to sell it!!! Ugh!!
