OK...K-Mart is still worth about 75 Billion. That means if we (all 57,000 members) chipped in just 1.31 million each, we could buy the sucker lock, stock & barrell!

But if we could get, say, Brandon to start a real run on the stock, we might get it for mere peanuts!
Great Idea! If Brandon could accomplish that, I would imagine we'd be in a bargaining position to offer, say, a mere $700,000 per member...first thing we do, we abolish the blue light special, and make them black-light specials; it would do WONDERS for the ambiance of the store...

This would leave us with approx. 57,000 rotating blue lights, which we would then re-wire into HATS for the new owners...

I think this would go a long way in distinguishing the TechIMO members from the rest of the crowd...

What FUN!

(Can't you just SEE yourself running up and down the aisles in your TechIMO blue-light hat going, RRRrrrRRRRrrrRRRR!)

Hmmm...may be close already. The latest news I read starts "K-Mart, a $39 Billion company...."

That's only a measley $684K each!

Ok, here's the plan: Every member goes to K-Mart & buys a pair of Cherokee pants. Return them all the next day. Then the rumor goes out "Nobody want's their clothes anymore!"

Watch that stock price tumble like a ruptured duck!

I own K-Mart and I can assure you that the news of the acquisition is greatly exaggerated. We bought the Internet from Al Gore who invented it.

DOOOOG

I'm in!

Do we get martha stewart too? If so we should lock her in a plain white room with peeling paint on the celieng, and flickering lights (just out of her reach), a mettle table (screwed to the floor), and a mettle chair (screwed to the floor), and see how long she lasts! heh heh

Nahh...She'd figure out how to make lovely table decorations out of peeling paint and spit.
