When you continue to read about the never-ending saga of the Yahoo-Microsoft takeover, buyout, collapse... You have to think about that scene in the movie "Lost in America," where, after his wife has lost their six-figure nest egg in a Las Vegas casino, the Albert Brooks' character tries to convince the management of the casino what a public relations coup it would be if the casino could just give them their money back. Unfortunately, it didn't work for him; and it certainly won't work for Yahoo. No matter how much better it looks now than it did a few weeks ago, that rejected $33-a-share offer for the whole shebang just ain't coming back. According to the pundits, "The Microsoft/Icahn proposal would require the immediate replacement of the current Board and removal of the top management team at Yahoo." Well... Yeah!!!

This could all go up in flames!
