The Houston Area Texans Chapter
of
The FreeRepublic Network

The FreeRepublic Network

Is having a birthday party!

When: Saturday, February 7th, 2004 ~ 5:00 pm

Where: Cabo ~ 419 Travis

How: METRORail

Come celebrate two years of FReeper fun! In December 2001 five FReepers had an almost secret meeting and agreed to form a new Houston area Chapter. On January 19, 2002 we had our first meeting of the newly formed Chapter.

Houston FReepers

The past 2 years we have FReeped, worked elections, attended the Texas GOP convention, had some wonderful days at the range, joined in some great rallies and enjoyed each others company.

Operation Infinite FReep - Houston 02/15/03  

We stood up to the socialists when they called former President Bush a murderer.

We let Senator Jeffords know what we thought of him giving the Democrats the Senate majority.

We defended the Second Amendment against false claims of the gun grabbers.

We reminded LULAC that illegal immigration is a crime and our porous borders are a danger to our security.

As delegates, alternates and interested guests, we joined FReepers from around Texas at the state GOP convention.

We relax, too - We enjoyed a wonderful celebration of San Jacinto Day for our April meeting

. . . and much, much more!

Please join us February 7 as we kick off our third year. . . and help us make it our best yet!

Many of us plan to meet at the Fannin Park and Ride and take the train downtown. This is being done to make a showing of our bravery and willingness to live life on the edge. Protective head gear is recommended. We will board the train at 5:00 pm. We should arrive at Cabo's at about 5:30 (We will de-train at the Preston St. Station). There is paid parking available downtown near Cabo's if you wish to meet us there.

Remember - if you entered our FR coffee mug give-a-way you may be a winner. Come and get your mug!

We usually don't talk about this, but we are actually a cover group for The Houston Bunny Admiration Society.

How did you know??

That's great! Although I think Austin is prettier, Houston is more fun.
We hope to see you!

That's why I need a laptop.. with beverage holder.

There is usually a little button next to or underneath a small rectangle on the computer. The rectangle is typically 1/2 inch tall and about 4 1/2 inches wide. If you will press the button, the cup holder will extend. Please note that this is NOT designed for the quart bottles but should be limited to standard 12 oz cans.

Glad to help,
-todd

Hiya, Smartaleck!
Hey, I'll be up in Dallas getting my IATA recert next Tuesday..a DGI class.
You wouldn't happen to be going to that one, would you?

No I'm not going but I'm friends with the President and owner of DGI. :-)

Do you know who is teaching it?

I show that it's going to be at the Wyndam 2/5.......that's not far from where I work. I'll have to pop over for lunch or something?

Vic Thomas is teaching this one, I've never had him before.
I've had Phil Rieke for IMDG and Leon Scofield & Marc Campos for IATA a couple of times.

They are all pretty good in my opinion.

I'll holler at you when I hit Dallas Monday! ;-)

Where were you when we were begging for someone to recommend a downtown spot? Oh well, at least we will save on the tip then.

C'mon, try Houston's hometown extreme sport - Ride the Train!
