Stop all that (letter) cussin!!!

Alright, I’ll go ahead and tell you up front, I like to write blog entries that have some redemption at the end. But, since this one will likely lack that, I’m attaching a link to a video that DOES contain actual BAD language but has a redemptive point. It is audio so don’t play it around your children. :-) Just click here.


Now, since the beginning of time mankind has justified himself against everyone else around including God. We always like to use the term that "I’m doing better than , so I must be okay."  Well, for me there’s one particular sin that bothers my conscience but that I still flirt with just a little bit. (Oh, did I say one?) Ha. Here’s one of the sins. And, that sin is not always having wholesome language. In other words, I don’t like to be around people that swear or use bad language. And where I come from it’s called cussin’. I don’t like to be around cussin’, especially from women or young people. At a power plant, I’ll tolerate it. Not sure why on that last part. But, I really don’t cuss (very often).  And, it catches me off guard and bothers me to hear people that do (very often).

So, here’s my justification. If I want to say it but don’t actually do so, then I’m okay, right?  Ha! So, if I’ve adopted a system called letter cussin. Let’s say that you want to fight somebody. I don’t like to fight either. But, if I wanted to, I might say something like “I oughta kick you’re A.” Or if I’m just dumbfounded at the dumbness and the dumbnity of something (or someone), I might get that amazed look on my face and say something like “What the H?” But, that’s about it for me. A, B, D, H (and a very rare S) are enough. I stray away from the granddaddy of them all. I think it is a most offensive word and would rather stay around the fringe of cursing than get really bad by throwing out the bomb.  You know the one.  I don't use it.

For those that wanted to know, there’s my explanation of letter cussin.  So now, don’t make me mad and don’t do anything stupid or else I’ll have to break one out on ya.

Much love!!
