Swearing can be very therapeutic when used in moderation. After the release of pent up frustration one can refocus ones thought and energy on the problem. I learnt this from my father who, while not a swearer, would occasionally throw the toys out, say something like 'bugger it' and storm off for a few minutes. Then often have the problem beat in the next 10-15 minutes. I've tried to follow his lead but without the same success .

Hmmm, now why doesn't that sound very optimistic?

My scopes just get called 'the dobs', 'the frac' and 'the schmidt', though some years it should be 'rusty' 'dusty' and 'doorstop'.
