mab,

Here's what I was originally going to use as my quote.

Luke, at that speed will you be able to pull out in time?
It will be just like Beggar's Canyon back home.

No joke! I even typed it all out. I changed my mind though and opted for the more popular quote.

That's what I get for trying to second guess sarcasm! I really should have stuck with my first instinct, lol.

SHLD closed down 12.57%. It would seem that many did not pull out in time.

That said, I did stick with my first instinct on the title of the post.

Check this out! I'm pulling it straight from the SHLD message board.

the emporer has no clothes

Note that somebody posted that on Friday. Nice timing!

Speaking of beggaring thy competitor's canyon, perhaps Eddie Lampert should start TARGETing sky hopping T-16 year old mall wamp rats.

Not that marketing strategy really matters. As long as CEOs focus on looting through diluting stocks will always be a buy. That seems to be Cramer's thinking anyway.

Ronco: Set it and forget it!

Loot it and dilute it!
