word.play: four is a four letter word

FOUR
four letter words get a bad rap but really they are one of the few numbers that mean what they say number/letter-wise. sure there are plenty of *cuss* words but there are many beautiful, profound ones too. i think what i love most about this silly exercise is the way it has made me take a look at things long taken for granted.
