A thread with this title was posted about 10 years ago. The top choices were JohnHuang2 and kattracks (who sadly died of cancer a couple of years ago).
My current favorites are governsleastgovernsbest for posting his great commentaries from newsbusters here (this is NOT an ad). I also like RobinMasters, he finds great articles to post. Also, kudos to Cindy for her relentless research. And of course, Jim Robinson who makes this all possible.
This thread is dedicated to kattracks, a true friend of FR. May she rest in peace.
You be a rather interesting favorite, too.
Thx.
Sure feel the same and the whole gang on that trip.
Thx.
BLUSH. BLUSH.
Am so thankful that I can count on your posts to be substantive, thoughtful and accurate.
Thanks treasured Bro.
BLUSH. BLUSH.
THX for your kind comment.
Love your substantive, Biblical, righteous posts.
Hey, Dear Heart . . . an off topic question . . .
What’s your . . . intuition . . . sensigs sort of perceptiveness doing generally these days about looming whatevers on the near horizon?
Well I wasn’t going to vote for person but you know you are my favorite Mod.You took on an imposisible job and set rules that I did not understand until later and made them work.On top of that you know us and are kind.Your fill in told off Savation-hehehehhee Another one of my favorite posts.But I have to add Admin Mod and sidebar Mod for the bottle opening on the freepethon thread.
Whew... Howlin has been gone for too long.

Well it’s not good.My think is to stay undercover as much as you can.Not good Quix.
Of course,I learn from you .:)
Sigh.
Staying undercover for Quix is about like . . .
the Queen Mary 2 hiding in a bathtub.
God alone can be my refuge!
Gotta go with old school...Seeking The Truth, AAABEST, MACRAZE, REGISTERED, KRISTINN, STARWISE...
An honorable mention to HumbleGunner whose caustic remarks have livened up many a day for me, especially when they were aimed at newbies with no idea who he is.
Bob Ireland and Roger Shultz...Where are you when we need you most...And Peggy, I always looked forward to seeing what you had to say...Please, God tell me you’re still around here somewhere!
real self examination and to be very informed and not saddled with preening self righteous indignation whilst spouting platitudes and cliches and canards as proof that some reply they feel is the correct answer for our hypersensitive times is somehow cogent
ignorance and lack of boots on the ground experience is the main fault here much like regular citizenry
BUT...probably half of freepers today are pretty solid...maybe more...it used to be worse ...but most of them left last election...good riddance
FR’s political correctness barometer nosedived after that blessed exodus
i have found few southerners here I dislike and few midwesterners too
BluesDuke ~ for his brilliant repository of baseball, musical and funky old appliance knowledge and appreciation; and his adherence to the core values that make us Americans; You can listen to BluesDuke tonight 12PM PSTFlattery will get you everywhere, O favourite FREEPer of mine!
By the way, you can now listen to BluesDuke tonight---or any old time you wish---the way it was supposed to have sounded Monday night, but didn't, thanks to a couple of very gaping glitches (nobody's fault, really; the stand-in board operator---my regular was out ill with a pneumonia relapse, after she tried going back to work a little prematurely---didn't catch a couple of track numbers in my script, missed a sound track entirely, and accidentally hit a sound scripted to appear near the end of the show!).
But I was able to edit the recording (my station records my show while I'm on the air, and I get the recording link by e-mail within an hour after I'm off the air) successfully, meaning I was able to cut the unexpected gaps and insert the missing sound where it was supposed to be, and you can hear the show the way it should have been heard.
Here are the highlights:
1) "Jail for Yawns": A little routine I worked up after reading of a poor schnook who got sentenced at first to six months in the jug for . . . yawning, in court, while there to stand by a cousin facing sentencing on some other business. I wondered what possible kind of yawn could possibly move a judge to throw someone in the can. (The real-life suspect: He was sprung after three weeks.)
2) "Helen and Troy"---A little mad fun with the old-time radio style of dope (er, soap) opera, hooking this around a pair of college professors who've been canned for . . . marriage (their own, to each other, against campus policy), and now freshly minted to Las Vegas, living in a studio apartment, walking Boulder Highway, chatting idly, when suddenly Troy bumps into a white sack full of, well, let's just say it wasn't your typical trash dumped along the road.
3) An actual old-time radio show that actually aired on Monday night's date, in 1947: The Jack Paar Program, with his guest the man who made it possible for him to get that big break that summer---Jack Benny.
Choice blues from Big Bill Broonzy, Johnny Winter, Jimmy Witherspoon, and Muddy Waters.
Gosh that was long.Vote for me as I might beat out Laz.I am only 97 votes behind.(((((((Hugs)))))))) Fatima :)
I actually was gonna mention you and KIA and Brads Grandma for yer fine efforts here girl.
