It is funny now!

When my youngest son was 4 years old, he came running in the house. He was out of breath and very hard to understand. He ran up to his dad and said, "That scared the hell out of me!" We were shocked and my husband asked, "What did you say?" Weasel again repeated the same sentence. My husband asks, "Do you know that is a bad word?" Weasel answered, "Yes, but that is what it did to me?" We still to this day don't know what it was that scared him enough to say that.
