And that reminds me of the time I was on a train travelling from London to Sheffield, United Kingdom...Haydn had warned me not to ever say the word, "****" because in England that's equivalent to our word "F" well, you can fill in the rest. There was no heat on the train and I had a really big Canadian white wool coat with Fox trim complete with a hood, suede gloves up to my elbow and boots up past my knee to match. There were people in the carriage reading books with their coats open. I was absolutely frozen because I wasn't accustomed to English very high humidity cold weather in November. I believe I said something like, "**** ... when are they going to turn the heat on?" Everyone in the carriage looked at me like I was from the dregs of society and I very quickly understood I had said the forbidden word. No taking it back!!!! So from thence forward I was known on that train as the Canadian with the potty mouth! I really don't know how they figured I was Canadian...must have been something about the colour of my eyes that was the tip off! Sylvia The word we're looking for here is S H I T!!! I can't even say it on an American board...! Hilarious!!! I had no idea I'm such a profane person. Goes to show you huh!

God will get you for that! "Liar, liar, your pants will catch on fire!" I never, ever heard that word until I came to that meeting with 5 other moderators ... they all used it and encouraged me to use it. I got very good at using the F word together with the rest of the letters. You guys were bad and led me into speaking like a truck driver. I quickly returned to being Canadian again when I crossed the border and just use the "S" word **** when I returned home. There you see the software proves it...it's much worse to say the S word than other word! Canadians are really evil because they use the S word frequently as opposed to Americans who use the F word.

Well I will take the blame, or the credit, for teaching you all that little ditty - but you must admit it has some teeth in it
Sometimes it just makes you feel good all over I will try to type the beginning consonants...see I still can say consonants. P, S, C, S, FN A T I A K. R, R, L S, F. One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor. |

Isn't that great that software stops us from being profane by not allowed us to use the **** word? It comforts me that there is something in place that prevents me from making a total **** of myself by swearing. Oops ass is a bad word too! A S S Sylvia |

Thank you Pat, I seem to recall that ditty! I guess I really did lead a sheltered life because I was a protesant and no one was acquainted with the paritcular piece of English literature. It just wasn't in our curriculum, but it obviously was in the Catholic system. Sylvia |

Did the nuns give you instruction about that ditty? Curious minds 'need' to know!!! John, you obviously didn't go to catholic school! Pat will elucidate on that point...she did for me and I have to admit, "I'll drink to that!" Bartender??? Where are you? Sylvia |

The stories I heard about the girls who went to Catholic school......
Couldn't print it. I would have liked to be a fly on the wall in the confession box.
