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:

El Paso Corp (EP Quote): "Listen and listen good. I've been buying this one for my trust. This is a very cheap natural gas play. It's not very consistent, but it's good."

Intercontinental Hotels (IHG Quote): "Not a great hotel chain in an industry I don't really care for. I don't want to recommend any hotel chains."

Pfizer (PFE Quote): "Pfizer's like a bond without any growth. I don't like anything they're doing over there."

NewMarket (NEU Quote): "This one is a problem. It's a short-squeeze play. It's got nothing really special, please be careful here."

Citrix Systems (CTXS Quote): "Very difficult product cycle. That's a company that's in a tough place right now. It's too dicey here and it's not a great tech stock."

Corning (GLW Quote): "I've been scaling out of Corning. It's at a 52-week high, but if it pulls back, I'm buying more."

Dendreon (DNDN Quote): "No, no. It's really controversial. I don't like it. I don't think it has anything going for it. "

Sandisk (SNDK Quote): "No, no, no. This not a proprietary technology, I don't want you to own it. "

Live Nation (LYV Quote): "Every time I get into one of these entertainment companies, I lose my shirt."

Bear Stearns (BSC Quote): "No, there's nothing left here. Keep your money at Bear Stearns, but not in Bear Stearns. The stock just isn't any good. "

BP (BP Quote): "This one is controversial, but it's an energy stock and even they can't screw that up."

Fuel Tech (FTEK Quote): "This is another one that I can't recommend. I'm too conservative for this one."

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