I've eaten all the candy!"<BR><BR> Charlie Brown gets a pained expression on his face and starts coughing and wheezing. He puts his hands to his throat and exclaims,"Boy, I swallowed that too fast!"<BR><BR> He sighs in relief and concludes,"*Choke* Gasp! Koff! I'll have to admit that was a hollow victory..."<BR><BR>
