This is neat.

You call his 800 number, leave a message with your question. A day or two later, his staff calls back and asks you to call back at a specific time when they are taping the show. When you call back, you hear a 5 minute long disclaimer about how you're not going to trade the stock until after 7PM and how you release Cramer and CNBC from any liability. After pressing one, you speak with a person in the office who takes your name and your stock and makes sure you understand the disclaimer and that you are being taped.

Heres what I got when I called back

Woman with REALLY sexy voice: Hi, this is mad money.
Me: Hi! Mike told me to call back at 4:15, I know I'm a little late but....
Woman: Oh mike, isnt he awesome? You're right on time we just started taping. Whats your name and stock?
Me: *name and stock*
Woman: Ok, cool
Me: Is it ok if I plug his book?
Woman: Sure! He loves that!
Me: Ok, cool. I was planning on telling him the only reason I bought his book was because every single copy in the county library is checked out.
Woman: Oh my god he's going to love that! Just for that, I'm moving you to the top of the list.
Me: BTW, you have a really sexy voice.
Woman: tee hee

FYI: They start taping at 4:30 and I'm on hold right now.

You basically stay on hold for....well as I type this, its about 10 minutes now listening to an endless loop of bad musak intertwined with

"HEY THIS IS JIM CRAMER DONT GIVE UP DONT GIVE IN LIGHTING ROUND IS ABOUT TO BEGIN" every 15 seconds

and thats where I'm at right now.

Wow, I think I finally concocted the PAB vaccine. I read that entire story and the only words I remember are:

"I am a liar" - by PAB

I'm not giving a shoutout to ATOT.

He might confuse it for a stock symbol.
