This thread made me interested in looking up the origin and usage of 
the word "frigging", which seems to be used in place of fucking (hey, 
I'm using the word, darn it) in a lot of the books I've read over the 
years.  In googling "frigging word origin" I found a very interesting 
article on the origins and usage of British swear-words. Don't call 
your bum-pack a fanny-pack in front of Craig!  Or if you do, don't mind 
if he sniggers. :)
