I cannot believe I missed my own anniversary.

I joined FR 22 years ago, during the height of the Clinton Impeachment. So many great memories. Met Henry Hyde with some local Illinois Freepers, protested Clinton when he was here in Chicago (He turned around and looked at us when I yelled "How's Monica's throat?") and so much more.

Hoping some fellow Class of '98'ers chime in and let me know they're still here.

Without FR and Rush Limbaugh I'd have lost my sanity long ago.

Lots of us in that boat with you - thank God for Jim Rob and FreeRepublic.

Thanks much. We are doing well. We live in two northern states that are pretty much on the front lines of preserving Freedom. God is good, and we pray daily that He will protect his creation from those who don’t know and don’t appreciate what Freedom means. Ultimately we are responsible.

...and it is good that your virtual reunion is continuing to draw comments.

Perhaps a couple more historical items. The battle of the Hurtgen Forest (the U in Hurtgen should have an umlaut if I had a german keyboard) and the many folks who I think weekly greeted those being treated at Walter Reed along with counter protesters.

You just committed history. The dreaded double post. Maybe that will help add to keeping the thread alive. I’m laughing not pointing fingers.

Lot of proof your memory is better than mine, or maybe younger.

Mine says april 1998 too. But I think I started earlier. With so many here saying april 1998—my guess is that there was a system update that reset everyone.

Still checking in but I miss the years like when FR destroyed
Dan Rather over his fake W Bush memo.

I would classify you as a plank owner. Jim's signup date is only a couple weeks before..
