It turns out that there is an easy way to post long links without them
becoming broken. The trick is to enclose the link in angle brackets
like this:

http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/news-politics/20130102/US.Superstorm.Aid/

That way there is no need to cut and paste, use tiny URLs, etc.

I know, but really, I thought that people here were at least competent
enough to take a space out of a link after copying and pasting. But,
alas, they've proven me wrong!

Such a narrow twit.. You know, some folks readers might be different
than yours.. Mine will not copy and paste a broken line in one shot, it'
takes each line separately... If you would just put the ****ing arrows
in, we could all just click on the ****ing thing, you stupid as ****,
idiot... that is those of us who still think you may put up a relevant
link someday...

That's odd, Mr. Internet Guru.... I use the same reader as you, and I
have no problems! And of course, name calling is what happens when you
have been found, once again, to be a complete idiot. How Harryesque.
Notice, if you will, the only ones to have trouble with the links I
provide are you, Greg and Meyer.... Everyone else says it's not a
problem!!! Hmmmmmm?


The use of
http://tinyurl.com/ would make the process so much easier. Put the button in your browser
tool bar, and life is quite simple. Check out the link below to see how much trouble is saved - no
copying, no pasting, just a quick click or double-click, depending on your news reader.

For Pete's sake.. All the ****ing moron has to do is put one of these
at the beginning of the link and one of these at the end. If he
doesn't have the decency or brains to do that, why even bother with the
guy? You know he has nothing to add.


Look I've apologized enough. I really did think that people here were at
least smart enough to copy and paste a link, and I was wrong. I promise
in the future to make it very simple. I've tested my new URL format on
my three year old niece, she's able to do it. So, I'll try that here,
and if that still is not dumbed down enough for you and Meyer, let me
know and I'll try something else.
