10 yrs. A decade. 1/10th of a century. Been a long time. I found this wonderful place exploring the Internet. Looking for info on the disgusting second administration of the Klintoons I followed a link on Drudge (Whitewater) and, bingo, there was FReeRepublic. I didn't lurk. I went right for it.....signed up 12/31/97. What a great ten years it has been. Billy's BJs, Y2K, 9/11, 2000 election, 2004 election, Swiftboats for Truth......what a fascinating ten years it has been. Looking forward to my next ten. Happy New Year everyone!

Okay, question: How many “time-outs” did you get in your first 10 years?
To: Always Right
“I don’t but there are people who get real upset. No matter how obvious the sarcasm is, there are some dolts who think you are series.
One thing about irony is it cuts in multiple directions. Read ‘Tale of a Tub’ carefully - Swift didn’t mean it, right? That’s the wimpy English department interpretation.

Okay, question: How many “time-outs” did you get in your first 10 years? Zero. Never been tombstoned (filthy DU term).

Okay, question: How many “time-outs” did you get in your first 10 years?Seven years and none for me. How that has happened is completely beyond my comprehension.

I think I gave you a time-out once. You were supposed to go to your room, but I’ll bet you didn’t!
To: Larry Lucido
I’m the mother of two. There are far worse punishments than being sent to my room.

Wow. Just over two years for me, but I was waiting to see if this whole computer thing would really take off.
To: Woodman
How did you determine the FR registration number?
To: jslade
p.s. jslade, congrats on the FR decade.
To: jslade
Compliments & congratulations.
This, and prayer requests, are the only vanities that don't involve God killing a kitten.

It’s a simi-secret but you’re 12,080. JimRob began hiding it when people started the I’m 139 and you’re 12,080 so I trump you B$. FWIW Anyone previous to 1/1998 may or may not have joined up on the month indicated. There was a glitch which reset some people’s dates to Dec 1997. I was registered quite a bit before the date on me. In fact I used to post when you didn’t need to be registered.
