The soap suds are easy...

Method 1:	Get a few large garden sprayers (the kind you
		pump up and starp on your back for spraying insecticide.
		Fill with hot water and Mr.Bubble. Instant bubble
		factory.

Method 2: 	Get multiple buckets of water per room. (hot or warm)
		Mix 1 Box powdered soap (preferably Mr. Bubble) with
		about a cup of Eno or alkaseltzer (powder, not tablets)
		drop a few cups of this mixture into each bucket of water
		and run like hell. 

Method 3: 	Rent an insulation pump (one of the ones they use for
		pumping foam insulation into the walls of houses) fill
		with water and soap powder. Start pumping suds.

The first two methods are tried and proven. Method 3 is just 
pure speculation. You need lots of water for all methods. 
Half a box of Mr. Bubble, about 4 inches of water in a bathtub
and about half a cup of Eno (not Brian) fills a large bathroom 
with suds (to the ceiling).

(Don't ask how I know this)

uh, guess again. 'broca's brain' is a part fiction, mostly non-fiction
book by carl sagan. broca was a scientist in (i believe) the late 19th to
early 20th century who studied the human brain.  he had a collection of brains
which is now housed in the french 'musee d'homme' in paris. his brain has
been added to the collection. the book is about the methods and thoughts 
behind scientific research through time (among other things). not a bad book
for an elitist, pontificating fraud.

bah.

I wonder why....    :)

BTW, you really don't want to read it.  A couple of my friends did, and.....

 I sent this joke ages ago, but due to the lack of response I assume you didn't
get it <problem with the default 'Distribution'> so am trying again...
