Two Germans, a husband and a wife are getting into their car after spending the day at the zoo.

Once in the car the husband starts the engine and shortly after the wife starts screaming SNAKE!

To the husbands surprise the starting of the car had disturbed a snake from under the hood that was slowly slithering across the windshield.

He calms his wife and at one point she asks what kind of snake is that? The husband answered "Vell Honey it is a Vindsheild Viper"

Drum Roll please ....... ba dump dum ...LOL

They do have a habit of picking up smaller companies. In my DD though I found on their site an PR announcing that they had bought a smaller company that was a one trick pony similar to IDO and I think it only went for $4 mil.

So even if they did I don't think it would benefit IDO shareholders. Bu what do I know.
