The Wall is one place to look, the vast expanses of the internet is another.
Where have all The FReepers gone?
Long time in passing.
Where have all the FReepers gone..
Lonnnng time a'passin'
Everybody comes and goes,
The World spins NO one knows,
Where have the FReepers gone,
Gone to Heaven. Everyone..
Except for those still mround..
Where have you gone?
Sadly more often lately, there is no one here on it.
Totally agree with you, I do the same, and there is no one posting anything on true breaking stories. I still have a problem with the "Breaking News" debate that occurred awhile back. How is breaking news 2 or 3 days old sometimes? I think the "breaking news" title needs to be renamed to something other than breaking news. This debate occurred awhile ago, and it wasn't resolved to my enjoyment of the site. Also, some really nasty Freeper responses to my comments definitely turned me off! Personal, name calling, rather than intellectual.
He had a terminal case of PDS. Dude was practically a raving nutter towards the end.
I think he got banned too.
Can’t remember why though
I use FR as my jumping off point for the Internet, where I go to find out what is going on in the world.
I dont watch television, havent since about 1997. Dont read papers. Dont read rags like Time. Dont listen to radio.
I come to FR every day, and investigate things from here. Normally, I would have worried about ideological tunnel vision, but it is pretty clear the way things are laid out, I am not missing anything.

Me too, but I also came here for conversation. Living in Leftist land makes one hungry for sanity!
Who really misses Sinkspurr?
The afflicted are always the last to know...
Were you here for the shower jokes, the moose bit my sister jokes, and the hugh and series jokes?

I had forgotten. Yes!
that had 2 r’s??
The only one that I find inspiring right now is LTC Allen West.
I really liked Sarah Palin and still do, but the liberal media worked long and hard on her. She isn’t perfect by any means, but...who is?
It’s family. I’ll be AU no matter what.
I’m sorry your health has taken a hit. Getting old will kill ya’. I was holding my own until June. Then, one week, I developed a kidney infection, malaria, and dengue fever. I’m mostly over it, but I lost about 75% of my hair and my face shows the ravages of the disease.
agree with you on breaking news. I ignore the frame. it is usually meaningless.
I was here and that was so long ago. I signed up this name before the Kerry/Bush election just to be able to speak.
Post #1 from me was explaining the Tsunami that had struck Boxing day 2004. It was terrible but folks didn’t understand what happened.
I was there, with my shiny new Radio Shack bullhorn.
You know, I miss them all. Rowdy, intelligent, combative, far reaching, informed, questioning, funny, silly...all.
Lots of people got their net start here. we were a real incubator.
I remember it like it was yesterday. Pissant wasn't defending anyone. He was merely excreting his never-ending bile against Sarah Palin (who he hated with an unbridled passion).
He went one step too far and the boss let him have it.
Ain’t that the truth!
None of my postings are ever going to change the world or be thought provoking. Sometimes it’s just nice to have a link to sanity besides immediate family.
MN Johnny was banned Comes up in red “Nobody by that name.”
whewweeee.. I’m on orange soda.. saved a couple for tomorrow’s race
I like both of them too, especially Sarah-which is a major sticking point with my mom who is easily brainwashed by the media. She’s slowly waking up but still hates Sarah. I’m working on it though
