Luke: That's the funniest stuff I've seen on SI! I shorted VVUS a few months ago and picked up a nice gain. You been on that board? Crazy. I'll pass along a little something I linked for them some time ago. Apologies if you're already seen it, but it's pretty funny.

The thought of being tortured in such tender places with heavy weights is enough to make one SHRINK! Did the examiners consider that bias?

> However, instead of using the EAS to measure erectile strength, the researchers chose
what they considered to be a more "objective method." Erections were judged to be
"positive" only "when a downward... strength of 1 kilogram did not buckle the penis." To
test for such 'buckling,' they dangled 1 kilogram (approximately a half pound) weights from
each erect penis.

Luke, I was short VVUS during its first downfall last spring, but didn't play this time around, much to my regret.
