Hey Bar, do you mean you want to select a portion of a post and use that as a quote? Let me know...I'll stand by...I think I can help.
Oops, just noticed the time of your post. OK, for the record, if you wish to quote a "piece" of a post (hope I'm right on that assumption), first hit "quote this."
When the window pops up, just highlight that part(s) that you don't want to appear in the quote. Hit the "delete" button and they should go away. When you have the quote where you want it, just go and type your post...after the [/quote] of course.
By the way, it's likely not news, but I've found that if you want things to go more smoothly when you're removing some of this stuff up against either the beginning or ending [quotes], just click between the word and the [ or ], and hit your space bar. That separates things and makes it easier to highlight and remove text without messing up the
Wow, well said.
You're just a founatin of wisdom today!!
That's no classy lady, that Barbara Striesand. A meglomanical bitch! Oh wait, birds of a feather and all that...:lol:
Pearson for me, funny how I'm pegged a Conservative and my favourite PM is a Liberal, lol.
My pleasure, it's not often I find an opposing voice that uses reason, rational and critical thought, it's kind of refreshing.
Go figure, and dispite that I still think the same way of you, lol.
Please don't post like SJP.
Nope, nothing there about Trudeau and our Nation's flag...
Nope, nothing there about Trudeau creating Canada's flag, but I did find these scary little tid bits...
That's a very troubling statement, and one I believe to be true. He was power hungry and quite righly so, felt the best way to grasp power, was to back burner his actual political stripe and join the Liberals, giving him a better chance at taking power and putting those socialist policies to work.
Yet he did the exact opposite. :lol:
"As a kid, I remember the flag debate and wanted it to be blue stripes instead of red - to represent Canada, sea to sea but was disappointed the red was chosen instead. I'm over the disappointment now tho'"
I agree about the red stripes.
And I always wondered why those in power at the time chose a RED Maple Leaf?
A red maple leaf is a DEAD maple leaf, with the exception of a small number of red maples.
Was a Canada, symbolized by a dead maple leaf the message they tried to convey to the rest of the world?

Me, too. But just consider the source and how error prone it is.
Speaking of the devil (or source, rather) ....
I think blue for the seas, yellow for the grains, greens for the forests, etc. should have been included, too. Our present flag is just plain boring.As a kid, I remember the flag debate and wanted it to be blue stripes instead of red - to represent Canada, sea to sea but was disappointed the red was chosen instead.

That sh*t happens. Apparently I'm a Conservative too, although I never realized it until I was told what I am in the past day or so. And that didn't come out of the Charter of Rights either.

For they of limited capacity, it is easier to pigeon-hole and accuse than it is to deal with individuals and be reasonable
