I love words. I thank you for hearing my words. J2 j1 f. Q# f! D% B$ d0 U0 } J
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.
, `; {$ }7 W b5 M j$ cThey're my work, they're my play, they're my passion.
, c" q( X' H N% g) ^' d2 PWords are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.
( m# a7 O$ i: w$ B) C+ jthen we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for a7 K5 l! n( K: @9 E
that thought, so be careful with words. I like to think that the same V* L1 t7 Q% F+ c$ a
words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.9 z7 h8 n7 ^' U. L& F$ I& t0 Z
There are some people that are not into all the words.

There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7

"That's a bad word!" No bad words, bad thoughts, bad intentions,

Wow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly

man. Hey Tits, meet Toots. Toots, Tits. Tits, Toots." It sounds like a- p% Z% o6 I* ?4 X0 V

not belong on the list. Actually none of the words belong on the list,3 O" N0 H3 A( S7 r. [4 z0 m
but you can understand why some of them are there. I'm not4 q( e8 R1 g0 }. S3 K0 G, [9 E7 z
completely insensetive to people's feelings. I can understand why
, F6 ~* j9 t1 m, p9 q+ ^some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and
% G: I# q6 R. fMotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on
, G2 \$ K; h9 j% |- Y$ Ithere. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.% z5 t3 ?2 S) Y2 z* ^' T
I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend# z+ K z6 S! M
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at
. L+ X" k- f" s* lyou like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."
; t4 }7 ~% o% d8 m7 \. V; y& I5 D" bIt's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the
& u- X: ~2 Z; F+ i) P) h7 Mother 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go
: ^2 @; D8 Z! H. ^together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that( w: j) l$ y9 w; G2 b( \" e% h
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were- s0 s4 K3 b, |. O
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I- W/ L5 C! b; L% N1 K
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such
8 `2 y) x4 r6 j! Gstupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."2 h9 X( N. J0 h$ D. C `: V
And, of course, the word Fuck. I don't really, well that's more
/ `3 @0 G* f# s1 [% m; J4 S+ laccedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think
& s, S' i# K! ^& q1 T7 Ait takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very
2 Q/ j) J! d: Q$ Y4 vimprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to; k7 Q- c9 ]$ t5 L: D
hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,9 P' r) a/ l, d7 ]+ z# D
"I'd rather have my son watch a film with 2 people making love) _# I9 B/ m8 l9 ^+ } Y
than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is9 m b$ I: L% {) C( Q# f
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
4 U" _( ]# Z; \I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for; F+ r: x! A- J5 J* {+ s
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,$ ^" q% ?" H, n: x+ b
Sherrif, we're gonna Fuck you now, but we're gonna Fuck you slow."5 t! V) Q$ M+ D
So maybe next year I'll have a whole fuckin' ramp on the N word.8 S3 \ d3 i% E; O3 W( h
I hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any5 e1 X5 s7 v' S n+ a% a, {
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even; O! C) y u, r9 Z' ~; s
clinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,' p. P. ?9 O2 S# q6 q: V
and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.
i" Z/ U2 H9 P; ABut there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.& N ?! `* i }, c6 C
Remember the ones you giggled at in sixth grade? "...And the cock/ o3 A6 Y6 V/ _
CROWED 3 times" "Hey, tha cock CROWED 3 times. ha ha ha ha. Hey, it's in
5 w1 o, u* |" M+ S8 mthe bible. ha ha ha ha. There are some 2-way words, like it is okay for/ e' o! \8 c, r$ U/ |& s W' [
Kirk Youdi to say "Roberto Clametti has 2 balls on him.", but he can't
7 }3 N# _; t+ H+ Vsay "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding
+ A2 ?% U) m5 Uthem. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that
1 n0 H. O- u2 g( k6 Y7 ogoes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You
