Ah. Foo being the transliteration of F-U. Never heard it used that way before. Surprising that, since I have four brothers - one who drives a truck and has managed in a single sentence to use the F in F-U as a noun, verb, adjective, and adverb, as well as an exclamation.

Learn somethin' new every day.
