I wish one of my stocks would get acquired for a 163% premium and I promise not to sue :)

I’d like to know what the Osbornes have been smoking:

Two Inhibitex Inc. shareholders sued claiming Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.’s $2.5 billion buyout offer undervalues the drugmaker. Shareholders Charles C. Osborne Jr. and Hortensia Osborne are asking a judge to bar the proposed transaction. The deal will prevent Inhibitex shareholders from benefiting from the company’s long-term prospects, according to the complaint filed yesterday in Delaware Chancery Court.
