An alternative to justnotes for something like this could be a free app called 
notational velocity. That's another app where you don't have to worry about 
saving and closing windows and such, and has the added advantage of a hotkey to 
jump to it. 
copy, hotkey, copy, hotkey, go to where you want to paste it, hotkey, select 
all, paste. Something like that, anyway.

Another alternative *might* and this is off the top of my head, *might* be a 
service in os x. If you could write an applescript to append to the frontmost 
document in textedit, you could possibly highlight the text, hit a hotkey, and 
provided you had an open document in textedit, send it there. Again, not ideal, 
but something to build on. In fact, I remember I wrote a script once that 
appended text to a text file in a certain directory with the name of the file 
being the date. In other words, you could keep a daily log of text clippings. 
It was triggered with Quicksilver back then, admittedly, but with OSX's 
services feature, I'm pretty sure you could duplicate it. You'd have to open 
the file to get at the text you'd clipped, but it could be done. Probably even 
automated with another hotkey, if the filename was consistent enough. 

Hmm, I might actually have to write that. Bad idea, getting a programmer to 
think outloud in email like this, <grin>. Sorry this ended up a bit offtopic, 
but I'll post it anyway. It might give you, or others, some  ideas, if I don't 
write the script myself  first. One of the reasons I haven't mided a break from 
Quicksilver is that, thanks to Snow Leopard, there's a huge amount that can be 
done with services alone.
