DUSA is a pharmaceutical co. with a high tech BLUE light. It works magic on Actinic Keratosis, a precancerous skin condition. Schering Plow just announced partnering today. It will be a 909 and it is beginning today. That is my thanks to Blue on THCG,909.

A story about IKE Ike is 85 years old and grew up during the depression in New York City. He had 5 brothers and sisters and his mother died when he was very young. His father could find little work so the boys were sent off to the orphanage. They frequently ran away and found their way home only to be sent back to the orphanage again. At age 11 he began working as a plumber to help the family and never learned to read. He lived in tenements that were home to many thugs. He learned to defend himself and got in many a memorable street fight. Before WW2 he married and had one son. During the war he served in the army, his weapon a BAR. In Italy in battle he had a serious leg injury. I have heard few if any war stories. When the war was over he had another son named Levy. Before Levy was old enough to know him it is reported he almost got put away for taking out a German Luger and threatening some guy with it. Later when I was old enough to know what was happening I saw many an occasion that he engaged men 20 years younger in verbal battles he always won...it was not uncommon for him to ask someone if they wished to step outside and on a few occasions when this did go a bit further he always won. Ike started a very successful plumbing business after the war and later went on to build apartments. He retired in 1972 at age 54 and still plays golf down in sunny Florida. Ike still can't read but knows more jokes and can tell a joke better than anyone I know. He is the kindest and best father anyone could ever have. When I was growing up he gave me everything I could ever need, paid for my entire education and insisted I stay in school so I would not have to work hard like him. Yes he still gets into fights and he still wins. Blue when you come to Florida you should meet this man.
