Jim Cramer was all fired up on his "Mad Money Lightning Round" Friday evening. No, it certainly wasn't a spa-day Lightning Round, Cramer saw to that.

Here's some of what he said.

"You got the good Pepsi(PEP Quote) or the bad Pepsi Bottling Group(PBG Quote)? You got the bottler? What are you out of your mind?"

"Motorola(MOT Quote) is strictly a 'mon back situation!" Which is to say, you should back up the truck and buy.

"McAfee(MFE Quote) is the only antirvirus play that I want to be a part of."

"Apple(AAPL Quote) is ripe for the Cramer tech rally."

"You need to sell the Rambus(RMBS Quote) and pick up the Marvell(MRVL Quote), and not the comic book kind!"

"Swap out of Nvidia(NVDA Quote) and go into Marvell!

"Ingersoll-Rand(IR Quote), Caterpillar(CAT Quote) and Terex(TEX Quote) all work for me. I think they [Ingersoll] will be the best-acting machinery stock when the Fed is done."

"When I'm in the insurance business, Prudential(PRU Quote) and Met Life(MET Quote) are my two faves."

"Medarex(MEDX Quote) the biotech? No. I want you in Genentech(DNA Quote)."

"I like eBay(EBAY Quote)."

"Sell Dell and buy Hewlett-Packard(HPQ Quote). I have to tell the truth!"

Blockbuster(BBI Quote) got a fusillade of SellSellSells, with Cramer calling for the defibrillating paddles.
