We've all done it. You've just gotten home, logged on to FR, and are scrolling down the "Latest Posts" page, deciding which thread will get your attention this evening, when THAT SCREENNAME jumps out at you in a "to" or "from" position. You are powerless to resist; if THAT GUY's there, it's gonna be a good thread...
All of us have our own "favorites" among the many colorful souls who congregate at this fine website. They could be someone you disagree totally with, agree completely with, or somewhere in between. They might be a fount of useful information, links, and facts. Our favorite might be devastating at the art of debate; demolishing opponents in truly unique style, or he might be just plain nuttier than squirrel dung, but fun nonetheless.
Perhaps your favorite FReeper has a way with words; an excellent writer. Maybe they are someone highly experienced in a particular field, with knowledge that many do not posess. Maybe they're dumber than a bag of hammers.
Point is, no matter what the reason, our "favorite FReepers"' handle attached to a thread makes it all the more interesting to us; it guarantees a wild ride or sublime pleasure in the reading and learning. It may also guarantee an increase in blood pressure and indigestion, but one thing's for sure...that thread HE's on is gonna get a hit or two, and it won't be boring.
I've got more than a few of my own, and I'm sure all of you do as well. WHO'S YOURS?????????????????
I'm still changing the locks.
Jeff Head, SheltonMac, and Dusty Moment first came to mind. If I think of others I will post more.
You know, usually she's this studious, quiet, respectful, loving, shy little thing who wouldn't say a bad word if you hit her in the face with a stinky cow pie..... That made it twice as funny. I just simply could not believe she did that. Stood there like a idiot with my chin on the floor. I been laughing ever since it happened.
Hey...I have a boat.
ROFL, no atonement for that is possible. Even the Michael Jackson jury would have convicted you in a heartbeat! ;-)
Is it a hole in the water you pour $$ into like mine??
Absolutely...Mercury Caravelle, 165 HP Inboard/Outboard, 1975ish (can't remember). I'm restoring it. So it's a BIGGER hole to throw money in than yours is......
Aw shucks, ma'am...
I'm trapped on the 22nd floor, looking longingly out at Eliot Bay. Wish I could open a window...
Nobody..I hate you all
:o)~
Just had to reply to you again. You made my day. Thanks!
Yep. Hard to look exhausted and stressed after spending most the day at FR. Then getting a raise to boot....
D'oh! I knew I left some important folks off. You and Just Another Joe.
Ah well, you didn't whine about it for a reason--y'all belong on the cool kids' list. :)
Right you are.
Our friend Pissant knows how to have a good time.
I think I'll go get a cold beer!
Without a doubt, these two work hard and write hard to help bring this republic back to where it should be.
I know that Jeff has been an activist on many fronts- and has written a 5-vol series that is a prediction of the future. It's not very pretty, but accurate and with a hope filled ending.
I know Joanie has worn out a lot of shoe leather trying to get the right men in office, and her writing here on FR is second to none, and always eloquent and spot on.
Anytime I am pinged to one of their posts I know I am in for an intelligent read, written by a true patriot.
Nope. Hildy and I may disagree sometimes, but she's been pretty rational about it when we do--at least, to me--and you know when she's on a thread the fur will fly.
Back at ya there Kent!
LOL, Good to see you back here.
How have you been lately?
I like Tribune7
