These folks claim to run a test of the amount of cussing on a website, but I don’t think this score truly captures the seething rage that fuels this blog. I guess I’m keeping it bottled up. I could blow sky-high at any moment.

SUN-O-MA-GUN! (there. does that qualify?) how about ‘sunny-beach?’
but really. i belive you about your ‘seething rage…’ for i’ve seen a peek or two float out over these past many years. yes, you do mask it well.
i suspect that underneath your mask there’s an Anthony Hopkins persona or a Rod Steiger type, waiting to jump out and knife somebody. those 2 gents can emote really well on the big screen. especially when exhibiting long suppressed rage.
George C. Scott ain’t bad at it either, given the opportunity.
i remember many years ago watching an episode of Mary Tyler Moore where she exhorts her boss, played by Ed Asner, to ‘…let it all out…’ his reply was something along the lines of ‘it wouldn’t be a pretty sight.’ and upon further prompting by Ms. Moore, Asner says the last time he ‘let it all out’ was the day he ‘captured a town in Germany.’
quite decriptive, don’t you think? the writer(s) of same dialog earned their money that day…
i urge you to ‘let it all out’ before your cork pops. good for the blood pressure, and it will feel sooooooo good.

from a movie set in Chicago:
“You wanna know how you do it? Here’s how. They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the Chicago way…..”
