As someone who grew up with Tintin, I distinctly remember laughing hard every time Captain Haddock had water in place of his whiskey, or had Professor Calculus do something that would cause him to burst out cursing.

After all, how could one forget his brilliant, “Billions of blue blistering barnacles!” — to this day, I would much rather have Captain Haddock’s “curses” than most of the other stuff that goes around (why, yes, I’m a prude).

But for those that remember the unforgettable Captain, here is an alphabetized list of Captain Haddock’s Curses and Exclamations.

Enjoy!

Here are some interesting links that I’ve been meaning to post for a while –

• Old-School Economics: An interesting article on the NYT on the current recession stagflation.
• Anti-bubble: What’s up with all these attempts to coin weird sounding terms, anyway?
• It’s not over until the fat lady sings.
