Bubba Robinski: "I want to thank the Ghetto Science Television network for allowing me to have my first Bubba's Kids Back-to-School Breakfast Program Pre-Labor Day Telethon—sponsored by L.M.H.F.D. National Bank, Pork-N-Piggly Supermarket and Bubba Robinski's microwavable, soy protein sausage biscuits.

"Very soon it will be that time of the year when the children return to school—a time when financially challenged parents in a struggling economy spend most of their bill money on school supplies and clothing. And as federal and local governments continue to lose the war on poverty and broke people still pay the price, what will a poor child left behind have for breakfast?"

Qweem-O-Wheat: "A qweemy, dee-wishious bowl of Qweem-O-Wheat with a good ole Bubba Robinski sausage biscuit."

Brotha Hustle: "And don't forget the artificially flavored orange Juicy-Juice on ice!"

Bubba Robinski: "This school year, poor children will start the day off right, with the Bubba's Kids Breakfast Program."

Brotha Hustle: "If the Black Panthers organized a breakfast program for poor kids in the 1960s, so can—in 2006—a cook, a hustler and a white dude."

Qweem-O-Wheat: "While the Qweem-O-Wheat cooks, the sausage biscuit microwavea, and the Juicy-Juice stays cold, please call 1-888-LETS-EAT, and contribute financially so that Bubba's kids begin their day with a good breakfast."

Bubba Robinski: "Remember: A hungry person is an angry person. Operators are standing by."

"A hungry person is an angry person." This made me laugh and release tension.

Thanks Ray and L.W. As a writer of satire, provoking thought is what I try my best to do.
