bullet  I'm Going to Stab You [Expletive]!

Crystal Mangum, the woman who set off a huge scandal when she lied and accused the Duke University lacrosse team of raping her, was arrested yesterday on several charges, including attempted murder and arson.

Police were called to her home late in the evening by, they believe, one of the three children in the house. When officers arrived, they found Mangum fighting with her boyfriend, who she allegedly scratched, punched and threw objects at. She allegedly told him, "I'm gonna stab you [expletive]!* Mangum then reportedly went into the bathroom and set a pile of the [expletive]'s clothes on fire in the bathtub. Officers say she gave them a false name, "Marella Mangum," and resisted officers at the scene.

Crystal Gail Mangum, 33, was charged with attempted first-degree murder, five counts of arson, assault and battery, communicating threats, three counts of misdemeanor child abuse, injury to personal property, identity theft and resisting a public officer.

Mangum is the author of Last Dance for Grace, a memoir describing her time as a student at North Carolina Central University, when she worked as an exotic dancer (that's "stripper" for you plain-speaking types) for a party thrown by members of the Duke University Lacrosse team in 2006. There, she accused three team members of rape and sexual assault. The accused were eventually exonerated after it was proved she lied about the events.

I would like to suggest the use of the phrase used by TV station TBS (I think) when they broadcast the movie Die Hard with a Vengeance. For network TV broadcast, they overdubbed the words "Melon Farmer" in place of the M*th*r F*ck*r used in the unedited edition. It actually matches the lip movements pretty accurately.

I laughed out loud the first time I heard it while watching it on TV.

I liked it so much that "melon farmer" became my go-to cuss word when I just needed to cuss.

Yippie-Kay-Yay Melon Farmer! Just brings a smile to my face every time I hear it.
