Here is the definition of profane speech at the FCC:
"Profane Broadcast Restrictions: The FCC has defined profanity as “including language so grossly offensive to members of the public who actually hear it as to amount to a nuisance. Like indecency, profane speech is prohibited on broadcast radio and television between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m."
Looks pretty clear to me. If you want to complain, start here:

Throne of bone
Since this my 666 post, I thought it would be fitting to do a write up on my homies black metal band in Seattle.
Throne of bone!!! But Seattle weekly did one this morning.... so I thought I would share that one with you.
What it doesn't tell you, is that the guys are fucking awesome, and some of the best friends a guy could have.
Plus they ride bikes like no other, and are heavily in to bike polo. The lead singer Michael Freiburger, is one the most amazing people on the planet. Those that know him, will agree with me when I say he is unforgettable.... in a good way. I have the pleasure to call him my brother and we share a bond. (due to the fact his bday is the day before mine, my Gemini twin)
I wish nothing but success for this band and if you're ever in Seattle, please go to one of their shows, epic.
Hopefully sometime soon they'll be hitting the road and coming to fucking destroy your city!!!
