LMAO.
Thank you all!! :-)
I actually lost my original password back in ‘93, I think it was, then lurked for a long time.
Almost!
Congrats! It’s a great place to hang out. 🤗
Happy Anniversary!!
Here is to 25 more!
May God guide and strengthen us all!

Congrats, FRiend. Mine is December 10 and- here’s a blast from the past- I’ll be writing my Nopus (no opus) as I do on my 5 year multiples anniversaries. I don’t see it— how many posts and replies? When I mention mine in my anniversaries l, I’m immediately shamed by others whose totals are in six figures

Noooob. I love me some Alberta.
God bless JimRob for bringing us all together.
Amen….
I thought I was a latecomer. I think there are sign-up dates earlier than 1997.
Hi AC ! Congrats on 25!
Where were you living when you joined.
Congratulations!
Happy anniversary! I just had my 27th Freeper anniversary last April. Joining FR was one of the seminal points in my life as far as politics. I was an innocent babe in the woods after I left the Democrat party at age 42. A friend from work started giving me her husband’s old National Review magazines which I devoured. Then came January 1998 & Drudge Report which led me to FR. I lurked for a few months & then took the plunge & joined in April 1998. That was the moment my eyes started to open & I’ve never looked back.
A lot of you folks know the day you signed up. How do you know that?
You signed up on February 10, 2011. Just click on your name on this thread and it will take you to your profile page. Your start date is at the top under your screen name.
Thanks for the info. I found FR on The Drudge Report. He had "Whitewater Files" as a link. I clicked on it, and found Free Republic. Later on, Drudge removed the link to FR from his site. Can't remember when though.
Yipes. 30 years age difference.
I found FR exactly the same way you did. I think quite a few of us old timers followed the identical path here.
