25 July, 2008. Drainsville, Ohio. Scientists at the Institute for Chronic Insolence at The Ohio Philistine University published a landmark paper in the upcoming August 1, 2008 issue of Science. The paper reportedly reveals a series of drugs thought to be active against an as yet unknown condition.
Dr. Anandathujana McDivitt, research director of the Petulance and Peevishness Therapeutics Division and coauthor of the paper, explained to the press on Thursday that the new agents have many built-in features that should make them active against something. “These new drugs have as many as twelve pharmacophores each. For heavens sake, they should inhibit or activate something. Early indications suggest that chronic chafing may be treatable with the new medicines,” McDivitt stated. But she cautioned that they are looking for “more interesting diseases” to treat with their new medicine.
Dr. McDivitt said that collaboration with some of the major pharmaceutical houses has revitalized their interest in a treatment for petulance and peevishness.
is this becoming The Onion of science website or what??

O.K Siskel, I’ll be Ebert. Jerry Seinfeld once said that a good comedian could take a joke to a precipice and leave the audience wanting more.
I think this whole thing is getting out of hand! It’s possible Gauss has been abducted. He spoke far too candidly.
Well, the voices in my head have voted 5 to 2 in favor of moving back to non-fiction. I’m not sure that it is a democracy, though.
