\\xa0Words are fun. I want to know who gets to decide when a word is officially a word. I was at a Cleveland Indians game and the other team had a guy named\\xa0Chone Figgins. (his full name is Desmond DeChone Figgins ). Why do we name the first poo of a baby\\xa0meconium\\xa0If it\'s that special why don\'t we put it in a jar and sell it? Look at meconium fix this broken coffee cup! Look it\'s strong enough to pull this 18 wheel truck! Likewise why do we need to name certain body parts. Do we really need the word\\xa0Taint? apparently the Taint used be called the perineum. Was that not good enough? Shouldn\'t words be taken into committee to see if we really need the word? Be sure to tell your daughters to threaten a \\u201ckick to the taint\\u201d to pressing males. When they go \\u201ca what?\\u201d they can then run away.

I still hate Elvis. We all know Little Richard was the king of Rock and Roll and the Beatles and Elvis stole it all from him. I still hate Star Trek

John Lennon liked words\\u2026..and acid, but that\'s another podcast.

Having a bad day? Too hot for you? Go grab a box fan and a towel. I\'ve got the cure.

Do you have a cell phone? Don\'t have time to exercise? Walk and Talk people! Walk and talk took me from a size 8 to a size two! Thank you walk and talk!

When I was growing up I used to take a sheet and a box fan and sleep in a blimp. Looking back this is a bad idea. Sounds like a great way to lose a finger.
