Word! I thought it was a pretty transparent fabrication,
especially with that ridiculous price tag, right in the
Subject line.
Reminds me of Jack Nicholson accepting an award (Golden Globe,
or something) for "About Schmidt." Turns out the award is
for "Best Drama." Jack's cracking up on the podium, (as the
movie was very clearly a comedy) and says something like,
"...just looking a Dermot Mulroney's haircut..." should have
tipped them off to the comedy. So that $6B was my version of
Dermot's haircut.
