I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.

Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.2 x6 g, R+ ` q0 h& x6 H' p5 i5 a

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go

Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were

it takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very/ x: Y F- a- M$ u* @2 S
imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to
% J6 g/ l, j3 l9 k+ A+ ~hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,

Kirk Youdi to say "Roberto Clametti has 2 balls on him.", but he can't

them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that+ S [8 g$ Y- k/ K4 K `
goes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You5 w( l! K* p% d: M+ d o
can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
