   I'm surprised how often I hear the word "Bitch" on TV now.  Not just "late   
   night" TV either, just regular prime time.   
      
   Not that I think it's a bad word or anything, but when I think back to when I   
   was younger, it was never something you heard on TV at all.  Usually just   
   movies.
