Manka Bros. Rejects Yahoo! Offer
Good morning,
I just wanted all the Manka Bros. employees around the world to know that last night I officially rejected an offer from Yahoo! in which we would have basically taken over their search business in exchange for a piece of our upcoming Broadway musical Rampage Of The Stegosaur. Jerry Yang called me late last night after my massage and pretty much begged me to take it off his hands and added 'please don't make me sign a deal with those mother fuckers at Microsoft'.
I told him to stop acting like a little bitch baby and do the stupid Microsoft deal. He then started to cry - really hard - sobbing and sniffling. It was a pathetic display by a very weak man. It was all very similar to the way King Abdullah of Jordan acted when I wouldn't do business with him.
After he calmed down a bit, I gently told him that we just couldn't part with any piece of Rampage Of The Stegosaur. It is going to be an enormous hit and we're keeping 100% of the profits on that one, thank you very much. Plus, I said, Yahoo! is a - how should I put this - confused company at the moment and lacking the razor sharp focus that it had when my friends Terry Semel and Jeff Weiner were there. That really sent him over the edge. More sobbing, threats of suicide, etc.
At this point it was 2:00 in the morning and I really wanted to get off the phone because that Time-Life 1970s Soft Rock infomercial hosted by Air Supply was just starting and I always wanted to see it.
So I told Jerry Yang to leave me alone and hung up. We'll have to see how it all pans out for his company - but it doesn't look good.

Good morning, sir, that's a pretty wild night you had there. I'm glad we decided to retain complete ownership of Rampage. It's going to be an amazing global phenomenon.
Yahoo is old news.

you should have called me before telling him no.
I still think Yahoo and AOL will end up in some sort of deal. I know nothing about Manka Bros. That one just came out of nowhere to me.
Good riddance, Yahoo. Manka has bigger fish to fry. Like our MBS 2008-2009 fall schedule which was announced today...
