Looks like America's heartland is also home of the potty mouth.
EDIT: Nevermind, I'm reading the thing backwards. Looks like the southern US coast is home of the potty mouth. Sorry, heartland.
EDIT 2: That scale is kind of counter-intuitive isn't it? When you look at doppler, the heavier rates of precipitation are always darker in shade, not lighter.

Oh boy, I'll have to tone it down after I move. My day to day lexicon of profanity is more then verbose. :haha:

How often have I let you get along? You are a baby with a masters degree. If I'm so stupid, you can certainly counter my posts.

Okay, I turned the other cheek twice, @mbassador. It's back on now, and this time you have no grounds to cry that I'm picking on you. You asked for this.
'Potty mouth' has been a well-established term for swearing since well before 1930/29. Freedom of expression has nothing to do with it. Must you politicize everything. Can you not turn it off? Can you not help yourself?

When conversing with you Tke I'd be more than happy to stop political dialog. But I will not stop being political with others on this board.

So the answer is no. Seriously, just say no next time. Save us the trouble.

Feeling stalked, Takeda? :D
A quote germane to the topic: "I arrived at the conclusion that the GI would be virtually speechless if a certain four-letter word beginning with F were lifted from his vocabulary. I kept a tally: thirty-four times... in two minutes!" (Gantter, Roll Me Over: An Infantryman's World War Two, 1997)

I can't see how that would be trouble. We were discussing the dangers of placing farm animals and candy near guitar amplifiers.

I wonder if it would make them crow? :hmmm: Does the vibration from the amplifier cause any discomfort to their internal organs if standing next to it? :hmmm: Is the candy caustic to their GI tract? :hmmm:

From my numerous tests on heavy metal (played through a fender amp by myself) and chickens, I do not see any change in their behavioral traits (other than the "wtf?!" look they give when you do anything but blend in to the background)
as for candy...I wasn't going to kill one of our hens. they are supposed to feed us all winter.
