This was made before 'Million Dollar Baby'... but this was put on the shelf for so long.
kinds personal screen someplace touch words
You have to go someplace and get in touch with it. You can't put those kinds of words on the screen without some kind of reference. It would be impossible. It wouldn't make any sense. I know that territory, by association, not necessarily personal experience, but by association.
