Warren Buffett Still Not On Board With This iPad Business

By Bess Levin

“We held very few [electronics makers such as Apple] in the past and we’re likely to hold very few in the future,” the chairman of Berkshire Hathaway said in Daegu, South Korea, today. Coca-Cola, based in Atlanta, is “very easy for me to come to a conclusion as to what it will look like economically in five or 10 years, and it’s not easy for me to come to a conclusion about Apple,” he said. “Even though Apple may have the most wonderful future in the world, I’m not capable of bringing any drink to that particular party and evaluating that future,” Buffett said.[Bloomberg]

    What can you expect from a guy who doesn’t even know how to check his voicemail.

    So based on this, it is time to buy leveraged calls on AAPL, write August $50 puts on KO, drink a Pepsi eat a peach, and get dressed for the lamest party ever?

    I’d let her kneed my raisins. Twice. With the lights on. WB spoon feeding me a delicious mint chocolate chip blizzard.

    I don’t get this iPad thing. I put it down my pants, yet it does not absorb anything. Am I doing this wrong, is there a tube that I’m missing? Anyone know if the Genius Bar can assist with this?

    Wait till Warren finds out somebody invented an app that turns the screen into a mirror and you can use it to look up chicks dresses. He’ll get one.
