This discussion reminds me of one of those Freak Brothers comix, the one where they bought a live turkey to roast ("Farmer: You're not gonna do anything crazy with that bird are you?") After the dinner is over, one of them remarks that it was delicious and asks what it was stuffed with? - I didn't have to, it wasn't empty. Speaking of France, you know that R Crumb is living in Provence... He was the guest of honor at least year's Angouleme Festival International de la Bande Dessinée. Don't know about raw pigeons on the menu in France, but ever see the film Babette's Feast?

Michael, Today Cramer is trying to decide whether to buy Micron. He says its price is acting "well" and that they are dumping DRAM furiously to work off their inventory, as if selling huge quantities of product at a loss is somehow a good thing. As his column is titled: WRONG! The fact that he is so bamboozled by the most baloney-spewing trading sardine in the Nazdaq is an indictment in itself. He is lucky he has stopped managing money - he is furiously recommending buying financials, retailers, and IBM! And for the financials, he says the more leveraged and threatened by bad debt, the better. What a goofus! /Kit
