TheStreet.com Staff

Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Friday evening:

SulphCo(SUF - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I want you to ring the register. That stock is not for me. Why don't you just go buy BTU?"

Google(GOOG - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Put a half position on ahead of [earnings]." If Google gets up to $10 EPS, Cramer projects it going to 600.

T. Rowe Price(TROW - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "One of the best-run companies in America. I wish I owned it."

Sonic(SONC - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "There is a lot of crying associated with that name. But this is not a train wreck."

JetBlue(JBLU - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "All airlines are in a House of Pain. Even the good ones. ... I think you need to sell this. I will bless only Continental(CAL - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) on this show, or GOL (GOL - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), a Brazilian airline."

Dynegy(DYN - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "At 5.50, goes to 7. That is a risk-reward that can't be beaten. You need that."

Chesapeake(CHK - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I prefer the preferred..."

Cooper Cameron(CAM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "You got a good one going there my friend."

TradeStation(TRAD - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Stop looking and start pulling the trigger. ... This company has lagged the Ameritrade(AMTD - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)-E*Trade(ET - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)complex but doesn't deserve to. I like it."

Reynolds and Reynolds(REY - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Not a bad stock. Kind of has this niche business in the selling of automobiles. I bless this one (and also Johnson Controls(JCI - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr))."

Dell(DELL - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Very little upside and very little downside. ... The line is even [football analogy]. Don'tBuyDon'tBuy."

Steelcase(SCS - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I do trash that every single day, you know why? Because it's a train wreck. "

ASV(ASVI - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I prefer Polaris(PII - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr), which is cheaper. Yours is at a 52-week high."

Quiksilver(ZQK - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Third best of breed. ... I think that Quiksiliver is just OK."

Engelhard(EC - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "What are you, an arbitrager? That play is done. You move on my friend."

Hewlett-Packard(HPQ - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "Condolences to Carly [Fiorina] but she obvisouly did not have what it takes. [New CEO Mark] Hurd does, and I'm sticking with him."

Suntech Power(STP - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "I think that Suntech Power though is up too much. I would wait seven solid points [before buying]. Ring the register. We nailed that sucker."

Todco(THE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "What is not to like about an offshore drilling company with oil at 64. You mind if I throw in GlobalSantaFe(GSF - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and Transocean(RIG - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)?"

Aqua America(WTR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr): "It's been a way station just like Hyman Roth and Las Vegas. You gotta stay with."
