What is an excerpt? lol

I'm just trying to learn how to post. Bare with me.

Lurker (reader and donater for years).

Does anyone think our current administration is honest? I don't trust them as far as I could throw any of them.

An excerpt is, usually, the 1st one or two paragraphs of a news story.

Oh yeah, we just love the current regime, they give us lots of posting fodder.

Another August signup. I am going to go out on a limb and guess you are a Trump supporter. Right?

Well, if you look at the posting rules:

Please: NO profanity, NO personal attacks, NO racism or violence in posts.

You find Jim is quite noncommittal on the nudity thingy.

In '98 maybe.

Now I'd win an award for best dried arrangement.

Thanks FR - I’m well aware of many of your names. Like I said, I’ve been a reader for years.

lol - Laz - you’ve gave me many laughs over the years.

FerociousRabbit: So far I’m a Trump supporter, previously Cruz and Trump. Time will tell. Sure won’t vote for the other side; I’ll stay home first.

It s cut and past really.

1. Never change the title of the article you re excerpting.

2. If you include a comment of your own inside quoted material use brackets [] s, not parens () s. Including putting [barf] alerts at the end of the title.

3. Never change the attribution. If you found it on Breitbart but its from an article written in Scientific America, try and link the original article and use the original author.
