Did you know Macs have a secondary clipboard that can be used in conjunction with the Primary clipboard?

This allows you to copy/paste two separate items in a single app such as an e-mail (subject line, body)

Read how-to article - This is a VERY handy KB shortcut but takes a little practice

Mac's Primary Clipboard
Commandl-C (copy) and Command-V (paste)
