Twenty year Freeper anniversary.

I joined up during the corrupt Clinton years. It was also the time I stopped watching TV news because I was tired of being lied to , tired of the endless sucking up to RAT leaders , tired of Hollywood idiots pontificating as if their celebrity status made their worse than worthless opinions worth listening to, and , most of all , just plain tired of being tired.
It was during this time I learned how to photo-shop with free software made for Linux: GIMP. It’s available for Windows as well but after years of putting up with the dreaded Blue Screen Of Death I wanted something Windows free and the computer you see in the graphic was actually one I got from Dell preloaded with Linux .
If you are on the Pookie18 Ping List you may have seen my works through the years but you’d likely not know I did them because I don’t sign them. That way am free to go after the left with gusto without fear of retaliation. This incivility Hillary is pushing is nothing new, it goes all the way back to the Civil War, or as I insist it be correctly called, The Republican-Democrat War. It's not really red state verses blue, It's Grey verses Blue and the Democrat Party started with Pro Slavery President Andrew Jackson . (A truly gray figure from history if there ever was one!)
Congratulations! I joined 20 years ago too! Lurked for awhile before I joined.
Now you one of the “old” timers here!!
Ditto. February, in my case . . .
A web page I put up to comment on the trial result
My favorite post of the day!!!
I hit 20 back on July 8th. Although I was here before then. Lost my first user name or they had a reset or something. Can’t quite remember what it was but I remember I had to re-register
Been here under a different screen name since at least Elain Gonzales. Had to leave when I caught wind my ex was gonna use my posts in the divorce!
Couldn’t stay away.
You don’t by chance have a copy of registered’s “ The History of Free Republic.”? That was so good.
#METOO!! I was probably a few weeks earlier and then had to re-register!!! I am OLDER than I look!
I forget how I found FreeRepublic. It’s almost like an organic part I’ve always seemed to have had.
I did find a history if not the one you had in mind. It does mention the year zero but the odd thing is there is no year zero because the concept of zero had not been invented yet.
No it was posted by Registered and it started with the cavemen.
Thanks for looking!!!
Ha! I remarried at the same time and picked up three step children and - eventually - four grandchildren. We’re a brady bunch with six kids. :)
Congratulations neighbor. Knees down, prayers up, and toddy tipped for another 20.....
Congrats. I guess we did get a lot accomplished in all these years of freeping!
I think that one was actually done by Lazamataz.
Laz, do you still have a copy of that? (It was you wasn't it?)
OOPS. Nateman already posted Laz’s. I guess I didn’t see the other one
I’d check my date, but I don’t have my password and can’t log in to post.
It was me. The very original four time period one was a banter between me and someone else, but wasn’t Registered.
Not that Registered wasn’t creative, he was amazing. Just not here.
Today is my 20th! Hard to believe I joined 20 years ago.
