Pharmalot... Pharmalittle... Good Morning

Hello, everyone, and nice to see you again. Another wintry day here on the Pharmalot corporate campus where, as usual, we are doing our best to hustle the short people off to the school houses. And of course, we armed with a shovel and a cup of stimulation - our flavor today is Gingerbread - as we prepare for the next round of deadlines and meetings. We trust you are doing the same, yes? So here are some tidbits to help you get started. May your day be fruitful...
