Exqueeze me
heheh
Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen

What betting??--I'd did all the real gambling for
all of us August through October 11th...you folks
have it much easier now <g> perhaps.

uh...I'll take the science for 40k Jay...wiggly worms
like me are so easily squashed--like so many night-
crawlers on the putting green.

For all the new fans of Ariad, here is a snip from
a review article in Current Opinion...

Recent advances in inducible gene expression systems
Fabio MV Rossi and Helen M Blau
Current Opinion in Biotechnology 1998, 9:451-456
...for those in vivo application in which precise
temporal control of transgene expression is not
needed, the rapamycin-inducible system is among
the best available to date.


You know, if you wanted to put some real money down
on some of these critters--and I'm not talking about
the mad money I trade with (and mostly lose of late)
--you would probably want to invest in Schreiber and
Crabtree, and all those smart grad students--if you
could get all those brains away from academia and
under one roof. Toss in everybody that Berger has fired
as well...and Genovo if it goes public.

Til then, snag some shares right here and wait for $4.
That is a good number as any--heck, even the patron
saint of lousy trades breaks even up around there!

Oh, and if you have any cash left over, try to play
the etrade lottery for 100 shares of Tularik. What a
scam--I can hardly get in on etrade to make a trade,
much less fight everybody else for IPO's.

Sigh...well, what else is new while I'm here spamming
the old Ariad thread. Ah--this is good: Fingers, toes,
four valves, bladder, kidneys, stomach, eyeball lenses,
spine, ribs...and an 80% chance the baby is a girl.
Now that is what the real world is about...not playing
the markets. I even sacrificed seven minutes off one of
my sacred Babylon5 video tapes to ensure the ultrasound
would be archived forever.

Later kids...
oh, not to be a snot, or a contrarian or anything
(actually I think it was "spoiled brat"--hey Jay,
if you lurk on these threads, I'm out about thirty
grand from playing this one--now what am I?

Smarter. Wiser. Much more cautious.

Anyway, when exactly did Brugge get canned? Gilman,
Ms. Brugge--who is next? I hope Amgen takes it all
for 200M (for the little people) --and the boys in
Cambridge choke on it all.

I crack myself up.
