Sorry if the formatting is a mess, it came as a highly formatted email.  Crossing fingers and posting....

If you don't want to walk, you can take the 89.

Or the 90, which will drop you a short walk away at Broadway and Cross streets.

I'm glad to see the Somerville Arts Council sponsor an event somewhere other than Union and Davis squares.

To the OP: If you'd like to de-format the post, do this:

- click the blue pencil icon
- in the posting box, select and cut all of the text
- switch from the Rich Text tab to the HTML tab
- paste all of the text back in
- UN-check the "Disable Auto-Formatting" checkbox
- using HTML tags, add back any formatting you still want
- Save Entry

Hmmm...thanks, I looked at the code but it was wicked scary. And that stripped out the URLs with the location info that had those cool popups. I bailed.

But thanks for the guidance.

FYI, I'm going to leave the post up for now because the event is this afternoon and sounds awesome, but in the future, be aware that these are requirements, not simply requests. Leaving a post with crazy formatting and broken image links is rude to everyone else in the community.

If you don't want to fix it properly, you can also just put an "<lj-cut>" at the top.

A pleasant event, but almost nobody was there. Next time, it needs more advance publicity (like ArtsUnion events all have), and should not be on Labor Day weekend.
