Garth,

Jovian and Myself always stict to a strict diet of Ding-dongs and twinkies
the month before any fighting event.  We reccommend it.  Except for fighters
who will be in the same lists we are in... for them, we both reccommend a
quart of lard right out of the can with a cod liver oil chaser 15 minuites
before the tourney.
