By the way, is it just me, or at the end of the "making of" featurette thing, when he said "Oh I love it! I love the Piece." It sounded like he said Penis instead of Piece.

I definitely didn't hear penis the first time, but after reading that I had to go back and check, and now all I can hear is penis =(
