I agree, I was once referring to a household cleaning product that ends in SPAN. The first word they felt I guess was not accetable to the lets say Mexican/Latin communities. We all know what that name is and it has no racial meaning what so ever. I did not name the product the manufactures did. Come on folks lighten up. Political correctness, has just gotten so out of hand. We can all read between the lines. We are not 2 years old.

There are always things that can be done to bypass rules.
It is just unfortunate that common words that sometimes double as words with lesser meanings can't be used without subterfuge.
I agree with Donya. We are seniors. Does someone feel that we never heard those expressions before? Or that we don't know them.
Or that anyone of just about any age who sees 'Son of a *****' will not immediately insert the missing word?
Ah, the marvelous age of political correctudeness. (I know that is not a word, it just felt right).

I don't really understand which words you have missed out. But I think I understand what you are getting at. Try to write the deleted words with something else, put the word with a couple of extra aa's it will probably work.

Try writing the word often used for the name Richard. What a laugh. This is seniors for goodness sake. Do they think we are impressionable or what?

I think that if you substituted a @ or a $ for a letter or two, the word might be printed as written. Just a thought.

I think the words you took out were kind of key to understanding the question...either that or I am just more half asleep than I thought!

Know what you mean! Tried to answer a question once about favorite signs of Spring, and I couldn't write pu$$y willows without Yahoo bleeping it!
Thanks to Stella, I now know how to get around it!
