    • Get True Religion - Cramer's Lightning Round (7/22/08) [view article]
      More than a year ago Cramer said he liked Odland at ODP, but he would still choose Staples stock over Office Depot. He got that one right. Jul 24 04:03 PM
    • Office Depot: Another Retail Sector Tragedy? [view article]
      ODP is finished. Have you walked into a store lately? Empty. Few employees, no customers, zero deals, product thrown around with no organization. If you still own stock you should be officially banned from the stock market.

      Upper level management is a joke, I know from first hand experience. My job changed earlier this year so I left the company, clearly a great career move, I knew it then and only now does everyone else.

      I agree that the PC is better than consoles to a certain point. Years ago I was a console gamer and really enjoyed it until I discovered the freedom and customization that comes with PC games. Playing with a handheld controller can be more restrictive than a mouse/keyboard combo. Plus you do have all of the benefits of easy, affordable upgrades and the ability to multitask while you play. On the other hand, consoles aren't dead especially with the fact that most consoles are playing next gen formats like HD-DVD and Blu-Ray. A console can be a 2 for 1 in that respect as most consoles are connected to a large, family size TV and can act as a home theater while the PC is more geared for a single person. Consoles are getting better at multiplayer interfaces as well, so they aren't dying. On the other hand, if I had to choose I'd still go with a PC. Jul 17 10:06 AM
    • Offshore Drilling Isn't the Answer - Supply and Demand Is [view article]
      Just because opening up the possibility to drill here doesn't solve the problem tomorrow doesn't mean we shouldn't do it. That's the most ridiculous argument I've ever heard. In that case why do anything? Why enroll in college? You don't graduate immediately. Simply having new oil in the pipeline will curb some speculation. At the same time we should be putting all of our intellect toward clean, efficient energy as well. We can do both at the same time, they aren't mutually exclusive. Jul 17 09:31 AM
