The sad truth remains that 5% of FReepers support 100% of FR. Can you imagine what it would be like if we had 10% support? These things would wrap up in days, not months.

When I joined FR ten years ago, it was not uncommon to git 'er done in 7-10 days. It was less expensive 10 years ago, but, it really shouldn't take two months.

Not everybody can donate. I get that. But, I'm certain that we have some among the 95% that are FReeploading. Harsh words, but I know it's true.

Imagine no FR. No way to get the REAL news that affects us all. No pool of talent to ferret out the real truth. No ability to call BS when we see it.

The list goes on.

We need your help. We need new donors. We need new blood.

If you've never donated, give it a whirl. If you donate once in a while, try monthly donations. It's really painless.

Imagine a Freepathon that lasts days, not months.

Speaking of being pithy, why don’t you just pith off?

Fortunately for FR it is still a decent if declining news aggregator.

It is no doubt arrogant of me to assume I know someone's mind better than they know it themselves, but for me, it isn't the aggregating of the news that is valuable.

It's the analysis and discussion putting the news in a broad, conservative context. It's the making me think that I love.

Thanks, Onyx and the Team. For your donations and your work on these threads. We appreciate our FReepathon Team.

Awesome! Great business plan! Run everybody off, the bills will be lower! Genius!

Thanks newbie! We’re all so blessed you’re here!

[NYTexan]

this place keeps me going when I've had just about all the frustration I can stand. I'd be lost without FR and the friendships I've gained. FR is a refuge in this insane world.

WORD!

[Free Vulcan]

It used to be that way, and you’re one of an ever smaller group that relishes that.

I really don’t want FR to turn out the lights, but I hate what this place has become. Unfortunately it has an awesome and unique method of aggregating news so that it can be read quickly and easily.

It's good to have you back for a bit, Sister.

Another bit of Tolkien from the Two Towers...as Sam and Frodo look at the despair of the marshes they must get through: "For a while they stood there, like men on the edge of a sleep where nightmare lurks, holding it off, though they know that they can only come to morning through the shadows."

Hi Jim and "mod". Not real sure what's going on. I tried to help a FReeper find a news aggregator that would be more to his or her liking than Free Republic, but in return I was called pithy, laconic, and stupid. I'm OK with pithy and laconic, but I'm not real crazy about being called stupid.

It is, of course, your call, but it truly seems that Free Vulcan is an unhappy and disruptive Freeper who enjoys sowing discord and needs to hear from you soon.

[xzins]

It’s still that way, but gold always has needed to be mined.

[NYTexan]

Soon, (about a month and a half) Ill be seving you a Margarita. ;)

Anticipation...

[DJ MacWoW]

If supporting FR is a waste, why are you even here? That makes no sense.

[NYTexan]

hic...Serving

[onyx]

Thank you so much, my brother in Christ.
God bless.

[DJ MacWoW]

They must be good if that’s your reaction just thinking about one! ;-)

[xzins]

Isn’t it a wonder, the love that God has bestowed upon us?

“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: “

[Free Vulcan]

Who’s been here longer than you it seems.

And you call in the moderators and the owner - weak, sad and pathetic.

Keep running people off, see how long the bills get paid. Seems to be more and more trouble to make that happen.

Personally, I just think his underwear’s too tight and it’s slowing oxygen to his brain..............

Don’t make me tell the story of how we had ta put her ta bed after sampling some...
