Microhoodonald's

As the world's only famous corporate raider, Carl Icahn - the man on whom, urban legend never tires of claiming, the character of Gordon Gekko was based - enters the interminable Microhoo fray, I am reminded of my long-standing hope that next on his list of takeover targets will be the McDonalds corporation. Because then, you see, every newspaper will do a headline saying "Icahn has cheezburger?", and afterwards every newspaper will have to run yet another explanation of what a lolcat is (or by then was). And we can all laugh at them.
