...come in and scoop up the fruits of their labors for pennies on the euro. "What seems to be cheap seems to get cheaper as one waits," he quipped, with his typically dry sense of humor, at the recent shareholder meeting of Liberty Media, the onetime TCI programming arm that Malone has turned into a mini-media conglomerate.

...music breaks (at, aptly, the moment where the vocal would be "Oh what a break for me"), Fred executes his first big figure, spinning toward us and giving it a showbizzy, hands-out finish, then folding his arms as if waiting for Ginger to foul up.
