Finally, Bezos got on CNBS and was given no slack!

Mark Haines was asking how he plans on retaining employees, what with their options under water and all. Bezos breezily replied with something like "No problem! We'll just grant 'em some new ones at a lower strike!"

I have a bottle of Dom chilling (bought with AMZN short proceeds) that I'm saving for the day they become AMZNQ...

You should have seen Bozoes on CNBS friday morning and the softball questions

Did you catch the Tim Koogle interview last week? That was the toughest interview I've ever seen on CNBS. They asked the tough questions, although they didn't demand answers (Koogle dodged questions about Internet advertising, but hell at least they asked).
