This made me chuckle ...

In an online forum contribution on boatbanter.com

http://www.boatbanter.com/showthread.php?p=320018#post320018

a canoeist put that they enjoy 'flatwater cruising' which to me seems
harmless enough.

However the spelling was changed to 'fla****er cruising'.

I wonder why? Some mindless bot program at work, trawling for swear words?

Can anyone think of any more hidden obscenities within harmless canoeing
terms?

That is cute.
I am told Paddler Magazine was blocked by Net Nanny as an Alternate
Lifestyle magazine and site.
In our TV and Video game world they may be right.
