Taking stock of Jim Cramer's 'Mad Money' picks

Watching Jim Cramer host his hyperkinetic stock-picking show produces a range of emotional reactions.

There's laughter. There's concern. There's amazement. And let's not forget horror.

To say Cramer is animated is like saying Al Gore is calm -- a gross understatement of character corrected only by an exponential increase in adjective. Al Gore is bone-crushingly dull. Jim Cramer is flat-out insane.

If you haven't seen the show, "Mad Money" on CNBC, Cramer uses his years of experience as a Wall Street insider and hedge fund operator to help viewers pick stocks. The best part of the show, by far, is the final segment, "Lightning Round."

Pacing around the cheesy set of the show and sweating profusely, Cramer takes calls from around the country that invariably begin with the greeting, "Booya, Jim!"

"Booya, Bill!!!!" Cramer hollers back, staring maniacally at the camera and waiting for the caller to throw out a favorite stock.
