I just realized that I didnt celebrate my 20th year anniversary with FreeRepublic! It was back in June.
Thank you, FR! You have been my go-to site in all times of trouble!
I will donate $50 right now to commemorate this belated anniversary!
Same as most of us.
Youre on the 98ers list.
I am not sure what I said that is confusing you. I tried to figure it out. But no I did not lurk for long at all. I remember I felt really scared to signup and post, but I felt like minded with the people here. When everyone thinks your crazy and then you read the writings of “ACE”. Fresh air. Like so many here from that time- I found a link on Drudge during the Clinton mess. It seems like the Blue dress was of the first things I posted about.
Ok, guys and gals. I made a list that Im posting to now.
If you are a 98er, posted on this thread, and are not on my list, please let me know.
I know we will someday do something really cool with this list.
Suggestions welcome...
yea but, I’m from MARCH... light years before you!
I donate monthly.. so, yea.. I did.
For the longest time, I was the ONLY PERSON in the state of Kentucky donating monthly. I think there’s a few of us now.
Well the earliest possible date is Nov 28, 1997.
I wasnt sure what you were referring to with that, so I assumed that you had either taken a different handle or were talking about lurking before you joined.
My bad.
You must’ve misread my comment on post #6. I’m a 10 year member coming up on October the 3rd. I’ll match your 50.00 at that time.
I explained once a few years back that I discovered this website in 1998 from a Drudge link but sadly didn’t hang with it long...found it again in 2008 and joined up immediately.
My official date is next month. But I lurked for a year before.
Thanks for your monthlys! FR is and has been a lifeline to me!
Im too disorganized to donate monthly. Just like I dont want my bills (paper all) automatically taken out of my checking account.
But eventually I get around to donating and to paying all my bills (820 credit score).
Mine was Jan. 98.
I knew mine was 20 in June but I forgot to post about it. Actually I was here longer but in the beginning we didn’t sign in. :D grats to us all old freepers
Apologies. Ill remove you from the 98ers list.
You can start a 08ers list!
This date next year will the first of your Hey look at me post anniversaries. Sheesh.
Which funeral home?
O.K. sorry- This might clear that up. See the signup date.
24 Oct Early!
Congrats on your 20th! :)
That is Freeper #1. Day one.
You are now on the official 98ers list.
I was once a Catholic, but now... Not.
Hmmm, well Im going to have to let the Committee judge your assertion. ;)
Heres what I see:
Since Oct 20, 2000
A lot of us have stories like yours. But I think the committee is pretty stuck on official FR Since dates.
You are now on the official 98ers list!
Let the celebrations begin!
