Ming Deals Himself A Bad Hand

"It's smaller than I thought it would be" commented Ming's date. "I hope we're talking about my apartment" replied Ming. Last time Ming got really lucky was March 29th when the FDA Panel gave the thumbs up to Dendreon's Provenge only to have the FDA reject it on May 9th. That was the first time they ever rejected a Panel recommendation for a treatment for a terminal indication. So he hopes to make out better now than he did with that opportunity when he held Dendreon's stock into the May 9th debacle. But Ming is his usual suave self. So when she coyly asked if he liked her figure, he gallantly replied, "the bigger the cushion, the better the pushin". Not satisfied with that bon mot, the great raconteur followed up with the ever popular, "the bigger the berry, the sweeter the juice". Just as with March 29th, Ming misplayed his hand, hence another quiet evening of free-cell was in the cards.
