I very seldom cuss. The few words that I used to use I trained myself out of after the kids were born.

However, one day we had a bunch of relatives over, including kids. We were all in the kitchen. So there I was pouring spaghetti sauce from the pot into a nice bowl for the table. At which point my hand slipped and I poured a big glop of it into my loafer.

Not on. In.

I had no control over the matter. I said F*ck in a rather loud voice. The room got really quiet.

My youngest, who was seven at the time, pipes up, "Daddy, what's 'fawk'?"

"Honey", I said, "it's a word you should never, ever use -- unless you pour spaghetti sauce in your shoe."
