--- From Readers Digest ---

 Mom and Dad were understandably upset because of the language
their two teen-age sons were using as part of everyday conver-
sation. They pleaded, scolded, reasoned, and cajoled; nothing
worked. At wits' end, the father promised that he'd put a stop
to the gutter language first thing the next morning.
  As the parents were seated at the breakfast table, one of
the boys walked in, sat down and said "Where are the @!%*&$@-%*$
cornflakes?" Without warning, the father's arm shot out, knocking
the milk, sugar and cereal bowls right off the table. Then he del-
ivered his harshest lecture to date, he took away his son's allowence
and car priviliges.
  "And what do *you* want?" the father asked the other teen-
ager as he stood in the doorway.
  "Well, Dad," said the boy, "you can bet I don't
want any of those @!%*&^@-%*$ cornflakes."
