Cut and Paste, also Copy.
Selecting the text
Left click the mouse button at the beginning of the text desired, and keeping the left mouse button pressed, drag the mouse to the choice of the rest of the text. Notice the text turning blue, selected. Release the left mouse button and the text will remain selected.
Select as little or as much text as required to cut or copy. You can select text from top to bottom, bottom to top, left to right, or right to left, by keeping the button pressed and drag it along.
Cutting or Copying the selected text
Right click the mouse button and see the pop-up to pick the choice of Cut, Copy, Paste . Left click Copy or Cut as desired and the text will be remembered by the computer for further action.
Selecting the desired location to paste the text
Left click at the place where the text is to be inserted, then just right click to see the pop-up again, and then left click Paste as desired; and the selected text will be pasted there. Done.
Note: You can also copy and paste pictures or images in the same way, treating the image like text.
Using keys instead of clicking the mouse
To Cut, press the keys Ctrl & C simultaneously,
to Copy press Ctrl & V simultaneously,
to Paste press Ctrl & B simultaneously.
Cut will remove the text to be copied from,
Copy will not remove the text to be copied from,
and Paste will just paste what had been selected, thereon.
Note: Cut and Paste can only be done to your own work, whereas you can Copy from elsewhere (except from pdf files, a type of protected file.)
Happy gathering.

Ironies & paradoxes
Some are doubtful about the escape of MSelamat; the authority's COI after extensive investigation revealed the escape. The matter is very serious, the people in charge are lightly reprimanded, exonerated. Exoneration over serious matters are incompatible. The degree of public belief remains inversely proportional to the leniency of the punishment on those responsible.
Our sovereign wealth guardians invest in foreign ailing banks; they reveal that that was for long term investment. Now they tell us that the US recession might be global and as serious as one in 30 years. Investing billions of $$$ into a long global recession, well, only some can do this.
The US is for peace as they claimed, yet the US are involved in many wars, all over the world, to the point of being synonymous with war. Their soldiers died in many countries, do soldiers of other countries die in America ?
The Americans are for non nuclear prolification; that is, other countries that do not have nuclear weapons should remain so. That being, so why does any country need nuclear weapons anyway.
The Americans were the first and only ones to use the Atomic bombs, They refrain from using the nuclear bombs up to now, one simple reason is that they have superior power, so no need to. As the Americans power weaken, the irony is possible that the Americans will be the ones to initiate the use of nuclear weapons. Far-fetch ?, not improbable !
If one day the Americans cannot get the energy they consume wantonly, will they just sit idly and do their fishing on their quiet and dark roads ?
Ha ha ha ha, do not take all these seriously.
