Member Texas A&M Class of 1981

Proud father of 22-year-old twins, who now are almost through college, Whooray!

After 11 years in Austin, I returned to my native East Texas where I no longer had to worry about traffic, smog, over-inflated housing prices and politically-correct yahoos.

I am a former journalist (that's a reporter who actually has morals and ethics) and am now one of the biggest critics and enemies of my former profession.

See the Texas flag at the top?...I am a proud Texas Freeper, and if you are a proud Texas Freeper too, then display the flag!!!!!!

If you don't display the Texas flag, then either your not a real Texan or you just wish you were a Texan!

I love FR, but sometimes, I get annoyed at the "holier-than-thou" attitude around here. So, I have compiled a list of "FR Evils" which are things that at one time or another, I've discovered makes you evil and deserving of nothing good in life, according to these certain Freepers: According to some here, anyone who has done the following is evil and deserves nothing in life:
