I just posted a sample. My actual post is far longer. To have to manually delete all the garbage in Preview Post mode would take me 15 minutes.

There has to be a better solution.

Guy walks up to me and asks me for a cigarette. When I oblige, he complains it's not "His brand" and does not even say thank you. That BUM!!

Happened this morning.

If I do a draft of something and plan to later paste it someplace, I just compose on gmail and copy it from there. It works easy that way. Could you copy it from MS Word to a composed email page and then copy and paste it over from there? I never have any garbage added when I paste it like that. That's the only thing I can think of that might help.

That's a good idea ... Another strategy is saving your message as a text file, which has no formatting at all, then pasting it into CD.

If I see one more butt-crack in the street, I will throw up. Yes, I will!

I was walking to the store for dinner items (and exercise) yesterday, and what did I see but a man bending over on his stairs, and half of his butt was exposed to the universe. Why, oh, why - and why ME? Ugh. I didn't seek this out.

Cracks aren't my thing. Chocolate candy, ice cream and cake, whiskey and soda, and Niagara Falls are some of my favorite things - not a stranger's @**. Damn ...

Yeah ... Cracks are gross ... I also get disgusted when someone boxers are showing because they fail to wear a belt and their pants are sagging ... Don't these 'trend setters'

know that this style originated in the prisons because prisoners cannot wear belts?

Most probably don't know. The ones that do, they don't care.

I don't know WHAT they care about. Maybe the latest song or movie.
No problem there. Having fun is vital, but some of these folks apparently don't care about their future. As much as I've been around folks, I've heard little positive things. Maybe they think they don't have a future, or that it's futile to plan.
Oh well, that's another subject.

Maybe they don't want to even think about the future. Lots of uncertainty today, I wonder what it will be like in another 10 years. The way we are going, I doubt it will be better. I can see why younger people would be worried about the future. Some might see their opportunities as limited so they try not to focus on tomorrow.

It amazes me how people dress in public anymore. Wearing the pants so low, that just shows what sheep people are, they see someone on videos or movies do it and they follow. I'd think it would be plenty uncomfortable too.

Goodness, yes. Lots of uncertainty about the future. Some people think that surviving TODAY is hassle enough (understandably).

You should see these clowns with their pants to the ground trying to run.
It would be laughable if it weren't so gross. Just walk around in (clean) undershorts, will ya? Dang.
