When you want to screw your whitespace--don't!
Take this little pledge and I know you won't:

When I was in school I would take of booze
While my typing teacher said I'm free to use
Space or formfeed or even tabs
And I punched so hard with my pinkie that scabs
Covered my Jake and Elwood tatoos.
(You didn't see that one coming did yous?)
