I actually enjoy someone who can creatively express themselves in frustrating or difficult situations without swearing...or anytime. Swearing is just too easy. I have always taught my children that ...but I also taught them our family "rules" of swearing. If you feel you must use an unseemly but timely swear word do not do so in front of Grandma. It's not worth the backlash. Not in front of the neighbours...or family business associates. Teachers...try your best not to swear in front of teachers. In other words, choose with discretion when to spew forth the vial burble. I find it difficult to follow a conversation with someone who use "fuck" every second word..."fuck" this.."fuck" that.."for fuck's sake"..what the hell is that suppose to mean..LOL. Anyway..just my opinion...now I have "the seven dirty words you can't say on television" George Carlin comedy routine going through my head... for those who want a recap: http://www.erenkrantz.com/Humor/SevenDirtyWords.shtml toodles Heather
