in cyborg technology makes the original Terminator
look like a girly boy."

from the U.K. to the U. S. isn't known, but the best
guess is: not long.

Before he appeared on The Daily Show last night,
Jim Cramer said: ''Limbaugh -- whom I do not
know personally, but having been in radio myself,
know professionally as a genius of the medium -- says,
'They're going to shut Cramer up pretty soon, too, but
he'll go down with a fight'." Well, Rush lied: Cramer
went down all right, but without a fight. Here, for
example, you see him pleading, "Pretty please,
Jon, with sugar on top, give me my balls back!"

There he was again, in the middle of one of those dreams
where he was trying to find his way back to something he
had lost. This time he had lost $50 trillion in global assets.
In the past he had always managed to wake up to discover
he was only dreaming. But would he able to this time?
"If I may be so bold, cowboy, but what you need
is some good ol' American horse sense!"
