16 September 2007Icahn has cheezburger?Well, maybe not that specifically, but investor/corporate raider (depends on your point of view, I guess) Carl Icahn has a finger or two in literally dozens of financial pies. (Warning: The interactive graph, says the little popup box, works in Internet Explorer only.) One company controlled by Icahn these days is ImClone Systems, which developed the anti-cancer drug Erbitux. A couple years before Icahn's takeover, ImClone had been embroiled in an insider-trading scandal, the very one which got Martha Stewart sent to Club Fed. Disclosure: You'd never have read this, had this title not occurred to me. Posted at 1:44 PM to Common Cents"Much win" on the title. Not that I'm particularly interested in Icahn, even if he was (indirectly) linked to what sent Martha Stewart to prison. Posted by: fillyjonk at 3:56 PM on 16 September 2007"Icahn has cheezburger?" This pun was predicted by Nostradamus. By the way, ICANN wants U 2 no tht thy R in yr IP address, stealin' UR domain. All yr Cheezburgers belong 2 them.
