One day things kept happening and around noon it came about that I needed to take some leave for the afternoon so I was filling out a leave slip. Just then the phone rang *again*. I threw down my pen with a cry of "Mother of PEARL!!" The guys had heard the first word and all paused. Then on hearing the last word there was a moment of silence then they all fell apart laughing. Before that in the Philly Naval Ship Yard there were a couple of mechanics giving me a hard time. I finally got fed up and swore at them in Anglo-Saxon. They backed off and went quiet. I heard from other people later that they were saying "She swore at us and we don't even know what she said!"

It reminds me of the time I shocked a supervisor when I said the expletive, "fornication!" Those other words have totally lost their impact. I liked the other comics there, too.
