Hey Paul,
I know that Jim C is hot on tech right now. He is really pushing google, but I wouldn’t really call that a blue chip.
How about Appl (which to his credit he recommended at 50)? I know he like Cisco as well.
Good show, as always.

Hi Paul, I like GD as a replacement for GM in the portfolio. I am sure Jim Cramer has mentioned GD as a stock he likes. But Boeing is already in there so this may not fit with respect to staying diversified. What the heck, I like GD better than Boeing.
Fyi, I just watched the season premier of Lost on my Tivo the other night. Now I am really lost… What the heck is going on in that show–I like to watch it but I don’t have a clue where it’s all going week to week.
IPO’s–SAIC just went out and was up substantially today. That’s all I have to say about IPO’s.
Speaking of History how about a book called “The Richest Man in Babylon”. One thing everyone needs to do before they can invest is save some money. This book is a great read for investors or entrepreneures who are looking for some sage advice. However, be prepared to think in terms of shekels and goats.

The Blue Chip I would add is the one Mr. Cramer simply cannot talk about: GE. GE is the parent company of NBC, it’s the MOST widely-held Dow component, and it would be nice to hear some sort of ongoing anlysis, even if just a cursory mention from you once in a while.
The other stock you MUST add is Sears (SHLD). He’s stated on his radio show (10/10, “Sears in the House”) that Sears will see the most upside between now and the end of the year. That gives you both a concrete buy point (now) and sell point (12/31) to measure Mr. Cramer’s success.
Keep up the good work, Paul!
I think COST (costco) should replace GM. Competition is low and costco always comes out of peoples mouth if you talk about buying any consumer product.
Hi Paul,
On the GE sell, I’d replace it with Cummins (CMI). Keep up the good work.
PS – vancwa is an abbreviation for Vancouver, Washington where I live.

Your podcast is damn slow … you really need to improve it I’m not a cramer’s fan but I like the pace he keep on his radio show. if you can cut some crap out of your show and make it to the point … it will be great.
15 mins you guyz talk 5 mins … breaks and slow speech and 10 mins useless ads.
I don’t know ho rated this podcast 2nd best … with pace sounds like 2nd worst.
Hi Paul,
Came looking for your show today, sorry to see it’s not available yet. Hope your day job won’t keep you busy for too long…
Looks like I put my vote in the wrong place last week – I still think that CAT is a good stock to look at to replace GM. My husband is doing a job in Idaho right now, and I must tell that commercial construction is going nuts here – the future is looking for CAT and other suppliers of construction equipment.
Thanks for all your hard work – your podcast is certainly worth listening to.
Kind regards
Marie
