1)  The foam that comes to the top of the bucket when you stick a steam
hose into the soybean paste to make tofu.  Mr. McFeelie says it's okay
to throw it on the floor.

2)  Buzzy's knishes--each one weights about five pounds and is
microwaved to hardness 10 on the Mohs scale.  Dent a cranium!

3)  Buzzy's Sloppy Joes--very much so.  Made with lots of runny ketchup,
and pre-squished buns.

4)  This mysterious wild rice-like rice I bought in Chinatown, which
gives off India Ink when it's boiled.  A handful makes gallons of
purplish-black dye!  Fun for the whole family.

5)  Melted chocolate.  The obvious.

6)  Crepes suzette and a flamethrower.

7)  The fluorescent chartreuse juice that comes with cheaply-dyed pickle
spears.  (Hold the jar in the sunlight to see if it lights up.)  Once
you get this stuff on your face, you'll look like you've been Maced!

8)  Shrapnel grenades made from peanut brittle.

10) Pie crusts filled with ten pounds of creamy peanut butter.  It's
obviously impossible to be suffocated in a food fight... or IS it?

Aw, I'd spring for $3.40 (payable in 4 T-tokens) for it, and then I'd
fill the skating rink with chocolate pudding, which would be much more
fun to wrestle in! And not the Jello or Hershey's melted plastic kind

This is one of the few .sig quotes I've ever seen which is dated, just
so you can tell how fresh it is!  But there's no expiration date.
I think I'll add one to my big .sig:  every two weeks, you'll have to
throw it away and buy another.

Incidentally, his rash went away eventually.

Also those greasy sweet rice banana cake thingies that quiver when you shake

And would he pronounce ""Kibo"" differently from "Kibo"?  (Aside from having
to pronounce the quote marks, of course)  This could lead to a whole family

I am sure that Kibo is behind (or in front of) this.

Dunno - might be possible to suffocate when doing this IN BED!! If you are in
doubt in any way, seek the advice of an expert medical practitioner. One way
of avoiding suffocation would be to wear a snorkel, but be careful not to get
any food stuck in it.

But how do you pronounce 'K'? is it the same as 'k'? I think not.
When I think of how to spell words with capital letters, I almost always
think of 'Shift - <letter>' or 'Sh - <letter>' for short.

That would make the pronunciation of [Kibo]
'matches Sh k i b o'
