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

Aventine Renewable Energy (AVR Quote): "I want you out of Aventine even though it's all the way down. For every two shares of Aventine you go buy one Archer Daniels Midland (ADM Quote)."

"Acme Packet (APKT Quote), is a situation, where I think ... if it gets back to where it was yesterday, yeah, back up the truck.*"

"Whirlpool(WHR Quote) has run from 82 to 94. ... I think that Whirlpool is going to hit it big ... very big acquisition with Maytag ... hasn't all worked out yet. ... I counsel patience."

SAP (SAP Quote): "Holy cow is that a stinker. ... He's [CEO] involved in a vicious price war ... with Oracle (ORCL Quote). I don't want anything to do with that."

"ValueClick(VCLK Quote) is one of the survivors that has done remarkable things on the Web ... advertising solutions for companies that need to be on the Web ... reminds me of Omniture(OMTR Quote),another one I like. ... Great quarter, great numbers, 26, [ValueClick] goes higher ... they rock."

Thor Industries (THO Quote): "Nothing better than an Airstream [touring coach]." But Cramer said Thor is an expensive stock and that its vehicles use a lot of gasoline. "We're just gonna give it a Don'tBuy."

Vulcan Materials (VMC Quote): Cramer first recommended it in the 70s. "They have aggregrate, which is crushed rock [used in building roads]. We will like it to 140. I see 30 more points."

Tibco Software(TIBX Quote): "Already moved from 7 to 9 without a real lot of excitement."

MasterCard(MA Quote): "Stock is up gigunda ahead of this quarter. Up another two smackers today. ... I still think they're gonna blow the numbers away. ... Best of all -- everybody's worried about subprime -- MasterCard has no credit exposure. It's just a credit card."

Corning(GLW Quote): "I want you to buy Corning." Cramer likes the stock because big-screen TV inventories are being worked off, among other reasons.

*For all you home-gamers, a 'mon-back opportunity means Cramer would back up the figurative truck and load up on a stock.
