like this:

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!

Doubt if he'll do it. He's too lazy to prepare a link that others won't
need to go out of their way, to follow.

Like I said, I thought that the people here were bright enough to copy
and paste. In Greg, Scotty and your case, I was mistaken. I'll really
try hard to make things as simple as possible and dumb things down for
you guys in the future.

It's no surprise that Loogy hasn't yet learned to present a link
properly.


Gee, I had absolutely NO problems with it. It seems as you do,
though.
I've tried to make it as simple as possible for you, because you've
told
us you can't cut and paste.


The link worked for me. Of course, I use a mac. :)


If my computer sees a space or carriage return in the middle of a link
it ignores what follows. Links are highlighted so it's easy to see the
mistakes Loogy makes. His links aren't worth more than 1 click, if
that.

-----------------------------------------------------

I posted this before, but I'll offer it up again. If the link is long
and will likely result in a space or carriage return, the original
poster needs only to add a "" before the link and a "" just after
the link. So, instead of this:

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


which isn't a working link (so you must copy and paste all of it)
you will get a working link like this:

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

(The reader doesn't see the "" or the "")

The advantage is that it is not necessary to open a browser to paste
the URL. If I click on a complete link from Microsoft Live Mail, it
automatically opens a browser (Firefox in my case) and goes to the
linked URL.

--------------------------------------------------------

I don't see it as being a case of how bright others are. I see it as
a common courtesy to those who you would like to read your posts and
links.
It doesn't take much effort and in most cases eliminates the need to
manually open a browser, modify the screwed up link and then read
something you probably weren't interested in anyway.

Then again, common courtesy isn't something found on rec.boats much
.... or anywhere else anymore for that matter.

He has been told that several times. I don't know why but he is only
here to see how much time he can get you to waste, making you put the
links together is just another part of that.

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...

Yeah, I'm sure, since you first bitched and whined like a friggin' baby
that nothing was being done to help Sandy victims. Then when I pointed
out WHY, because Boehner wouldn't allow a vote to get something done,
you instantly turned to FOX's answer that it was because of pork. Well,
the pork is still there, Boehner let the Republicans vote for it. So,
the question is, are you okay with it now? If so, what has changed? If
not, are you going to vote against those Republicans in office for the
pork they allowed?


The bill they passed was not the same bill as the one they didn't. Not
even close but you are too lazy or lack the intellectual
curiosity/ability to find that out.

Do I really have to look that one up for you too?


The point is there is still much, much pork in the bill, but now that's
okay right? And no, you don't look up much of anything, you position
like Scotty's is usually made up in your head.
