Back in the day We planned a big boffo gang bang celebration for the 50th Anniversary of "HOWL". We asked the bleeping FFC for special permission to broadcast it. I mean since it's like a heavy hitting American Poetic Event'n all.
Well they didn't say no, and they didn't say yes.
They told us they would decide after we'd done it if was a violation or not. So we'd be fine $200k if the FCC chairman had a bad morning. If he got a blow job or something the night before we'd be okay.
Bleep'em we did it anyway.
