Gives new meaning to going long on the dong.

The commodity traders in Viet Nam are Long Dong on Silver.

So the Vietnamese Dong is worse than the Japanese Yen? I thought the Japanese were the least endowed, or at least after watching the South Park “Chimpokomon” episode..

Barney has a Yen for some Dongs, but has been known to make naked calls on Franks and Marks.
