FINALLY-THE CURE FOR THE COMMON CURSE Faced with an epidemic of
profanity, our country is in need of practical suggestions for
breaking a habit that has ordinary citizens contributing to the
decline of civility and good manners. It's not always easy to
resist the urge to cuss, but foul language creates an unfavorable
image, is damaging to relationships, and goes hand-in-hand with a
negative attitude.
Now, James V. O'Connor-founder of the Cuss Control
Academy-offers the first book to explain why we swear and how we
can learn to hold our tongues. "Cuss Control" doesn't call for the
total elimination of swearing, just for its confinement to
situations where extreme emotion (think hammer, think thumb) demand
it. His program for easing us off the gutter-talk highway involves
alternative "potent phrases" for classic curses, including the
F-word; ways to communicate clearly rather than use lazy language;
and tips on adjusting our attitude and abolishing obscenities.
Packed with practical exercises and tips, as well as thoughtful
reflection on how we've worked ourselves up into such a state of
affairs, "Cuss Control" is a refreshing celebration of the joys of
a civil tongue.
"O'Connor is not ready to rid the world of dirty words. He just
thinks less cursing is the key to a less stressful world, and
maintains that even natural-born cursers can learn to control their
anger along with their language."
