Bill, do you remember the scene from "The Color of Money" in which Forest Whitaker's character suckers the character played by Paul Newman? Newman keeps on losing and losing and losing to this "bumpkin" that seemingly "slops" in winning shot after "lucky" shot. Newman almost throws up after losing his entire stake and finding that he was played like a fiddle. Today's early action, based upon a fictitious merger between YHOO and ATHM, may be indicative of a veil finally being lifted from some of the Inut investors' eyes. Nah, maybe this is the stuff dreams are made of. WDIK.
