I use MacLorem.

Spits out paragraphs of random text in 15 "fakish" languages.

Very handy.

nothing like replacing an industry standard with this:

One for all and all for one, Muskehounds are always ready. One for all and all for one, helping everybody. One for all and all for one, it's a pretty story. Sharing everything with fun, that's the way to be. One for all and all for one, Muskehounds are always ready. One for all and all for one, helping everybody. One for all and all for one, can sound pretty corny. If you've got a problem chum, think how it could be.

This is my boss, Jonathan Hart, a self-made millionaire, he's quite a guy. This is Mrs H., she's gorgeous, she's one lady who knows how to take care of herself. By the way, my name is Max. I take care of both of them, which ain't easy, 'cause when they met it was MURDER!

I dont know bout anyone else.......but if im using dummy text..i dont want the word MURDER in there (or any of that other crap lol).

I use the Lorem ipsum because I don't want people to read-it but rarther to concentrte on the look... so why in the world whould I choose a text than anyone can read... why should switch form the solution to the pronlem itslef...

Lorem ipsum is perfect to fill emply text area and reports you know no one will ever read them anyway... UI wonr say where but i know someonw who done this in a wekkly report and no one ever find out ;)

Plus lorem ipsum has been around since the freakin' 1500's. I think that is enough proof that it works!

I like Ut's MacLorum, but I don't have a Mac.

So thanks Utopian, every time I need random text, I'm going to email you with how much of what language. Woohoo

lorem ipsum doesn't mean anything - not even in Latin...so even if you know Latin - it still doesn't mean crap... - it's LAting words but they don't form sentences... - it's just words...

It's not a poem you dolt ;). Cicero was not a poet, nor was he a philosopher, he was a politician and a former Consul who spoke out against Catiline, Caesar, and Antony (and was eventually killed by Antony's men); he never wrote poetry.

Sorry, I have to correct people who believe everything latin they read is a poem.

Perhaps I am the only one old enough to remember "The Littlest Hobo"? But the first paragraph had waves of nostalgia flooding back!!
