FW, thanks for the welcome, old timer—by two months!
Happy New Year to you!
Nah, those smell like fish.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year as well.
Happy 13th. Mine was last January 31 so next month will be my 14th!
My favorite time here was posting LIVE during the Iraq war. We were up late and many of us were watching video feeds from Bahgdad.
I’ll never forget “Achmed” the sweepr and the guy that changed the lens on the cameras. We saw lots of explosions and heard more. One hit so close to the cameras we could see the dust and debri falling.
And, of course, the 2000 and 2004 elections. Good times.
Happy New Year to you too Exit82.
Well, that would have been 1992, and I don’t think FR dates back before 1996. Maybe if we had been around in ‘92, the outcome would have been different!
Hard to believe the Clintons have been on the scene for 20 years, and still haven’t been put in Ft. Leavenworth.
Happy New Year to you!
Fledermaus, happy upcoming 14th!
No place like FR for breaking news, that’s for sure.
Happy New Year to you!
I also was around in the old, old days and then stopped for a bit and forgot my old nickname. I think FR did something that wiped them.
I came back under this name at the end of Jan 1998.
Congrats on 13 years of pure conservatism. I am glad that we have meet over the years.
Last year some time I read that Al Moron’s daughter said that her dad still has bad moments thinking about you all shouting “Get out of Cheney’s house”. I chuckle every time I think about it.
[Mr] T
Indeed 98 was a good year, 10-13-98.
Happy and a prosperous new year to all.......
Amen, brother!!! And congratulations on your Baker's Dozen at FR. Me, I'm just a pup at 11+ yrs.
Best wishes for a great new year, and here's to no longer being the redheaded stepchildren of the GOP!
Happy 13th, dude :)
I went back and read your linked thread. TOO many Rombots on that thread, my friend. Waaaaaaaaaay to many. What were they thinking???
Happy Anniversary! Thanks for being here. Happy New Year to all FReepers and like-minded lurkers.
live - free - republic
trooprally, my thanks to your and your lovely wife for your faithfulness to our wounded warriors at Walter Reed Hospital and in Olney with Freeps each week that reminded us to honor those who serve in our armed forces.
Obama figured out the only way to stop you was to close Walter Reed!!!
A happy new year to you and yours, friend.
deport—good to hear from you. Yes, ‘98 was a great year, and congratulations on your 13th as well.
Happy New Year to you!
Happy Anniversary! I joined in 2000 and lurked for a while prior. I was drawn here due to VF. I was a USPP intern at the scene at Ft. Marcy. I learned alot and made alot of connections..
andy58-in-nh,good to hear from you,man!
I don’t look good in red hair, how about you!
Happy New Year to you and yours!
I just love it when one noobie calls another one "noobie". :=)
Happy New Year to you, Bro’!
I followed you to FR about 6 months later...during Columbune, IIRC.
Before that, I was a much-attacked conservative on Salon.com(which I believe is now defunct.)
Man, have we been through a lot, or not?
Many thanks to JimRob and JohnRob for keeping the home fires burning here.
I share your enthusiasm for 2012, and I truly believe this is the year we will take our country back from the Commies, the Muzzie-sympathizers; the “Progressives” (who want to take us back to early 20th Century Russia); the Weiners and the Whiners; the Clintons and the Grifters; the Kenyan Candidate and his Mooching Wife, etc. (List is too long.)
Anyway, Happy New Year to you and to all true FReepers!
LOL! Welcome newbie. You’ll love it here...
