LOL not usually! Just enjoying the rare IBTZ. Took me six years...

[Hebrews 11:6]

Well, Robert, congratulations on passing (finally, at long last) Phase One of your Free Republic initiation. It is true that your Phase One time ranks in the lowest quintile, but a pass is a pass, after all.

However, if you continue at this pace it will be some time before you pass all Fourteen Initiation Phases and graduate. May we recommend greater diligence in the future? Perhaps you could speed things up by posting without reading the entire thread, as most of the graduate Freepers do. Good luck, and good Freeping!
