Default Use cuss words?

PORTAGE, Indiana (AP) -- Employees in the Portage, Indiana, city clerk's office are turning their colorful language into a little green.

Since July, workers have generated about $120 by fining themselves for using profanity in the office.

The money goes into a flower vase on Portage Clerk Ellen Mesich's desk and eventually will go to buy gift cards to give to teen cancer patients at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, Illinois. Mesich had a niece who died of cancer last summer and was treated at the hospital.

Mesich started the foul-mouthed fund drive.

Cuss words cost $

They'd make a fortune at my place. I hate to admit it, but I would be adding to the kitty too.

We had a thread/poll a while back about cussing, I'm not alone.

Heck, I could raise 1 Mil in my office in a week. And NO that's not mostly from my bad language.
