Ouch! ... and some good stuff. :) MEMY stock took a 50% dive on Monday on news that one of its 2 drugs in Phase IIa trials failed. Whoops! Anyone want to buy mine at $2.17?

We discovered that at least part of our house has no house wrap under the siding and our builder isn't returning my calls. I could end up in my first lawsuit over this since we could be looking at $20K.

Zach took up skateboarding 3 weeks ago. He's taking lessons at the skate park every Sunday morning @ 9am from a homeless-looking ex-pro. (He's a great teacher.) After two rounds of that I got so insanely bored that I went out and bought my own board w/ neon-yellow grip tape. So now my 335' ass + helmet + knee + elbow + wrist guards and Zach are "shredding" it up. At work Trey reminded me that force = mass * velocity, so I'm doomed. Stupid physics. ... On the other hand I took 6 runs down the volcano on Sunday and I'm not dead yet! -grin-

Andria bought a new super-sporty black Honda Civic SI a few weeks back. She was pretty excited about it. Still is? She stopped washing it every weekend. Does that mean anything?

We're heading to South Dakota for a long weekend next weekend, and then I'm heading to NY Nov 1-7 for a couple BioNerd conferences. I'm pretty pumped up about it. Annual physical yesterday, and the doc's pretty happy. Apparently my cup-peeing skills are still adequate. I'm still on Zetia and Tricor for cholesterol. My first mid-term in 12 years is tonight. Wish me luck. :)
