Favorite FReepers...

Me. | April 9, 2004 | Long Cut

[Long Cut]

We've all done it. You've just gotten home, logged on to FR, and are scrolling down the "Latest Posts" page, deciding which thread will get your attention this evening, when THAT SCREENNAME jumps out at you in a "to" or "from" position. You are powerless to resist; if THAT GUY's there, it's gonna be a good thread...

All of us have our own "favorites" among the many colorful souls who congregate at this fine website. They could be someone you disagree totally with, agree completely with, or somewhere in between. They might be a fount of useful information, links, and facts. Our favorite might be devastating at the art of debate; demolishing opponents in truly unique style, or he might be just plain nuttier than squirrel dung, but fun nonetheless.

Perhaps your favorite FReeper has a way with words; an excellent writer. Maybe they are someone highly experienced in a particular field, with knowledge that many do not posess. Maybe they're dumber than a bag of hammers.

Point is, no matter what the reason, our "favorite FReepers"' handle attached to a thread makes it all the more interesting to us; it guarantees a wild ride or sublime pleasure in the reading and learning. It may also guarantee an increase in blood pressure and indigestion, but one thing's for sure...that thread HE's on is gonna get a hit or two, and it won't be boring.

I've got more than a few of my own, and I'm sure all of you do as well. WHO'S YOURS?????????????????

I rarely see monkeyhshines post anymore, but would always look for his/her posts when I lurked in the beginning.

Harpseal is sure missed.

Always love to see what Lazamataz is stirring up. Haven't seen him post much lately, hope he's ok.

SJackson, SJackson, Alouette and crew have taught me much.

I won't pass by a thread, no matter what subject, if I see Torie is posting.

governsleastgovernsbest for keeping up the Today Show thread for those of us who very very VERY rarely watch it, and keeping us apprised of what nonsense is going on over there.

[StayAt HomeMother]

As has been said, there are too many to list, but here is my start:

Null and void and the rest of the Situation Room gang.
tgslTakoma, kristin, angelwood, and the DC Chapter for setting (and maintaining!) the Freeping standard.
nutmeg and mhking, for the pings.
snippy_about_it and SAMWolf, for the Freeper Foxhole.
TexasCowboy and Brad's Gramma, for the Texas Termite thread.
Hillary's Lovely Legs, for the live TV threads.
Howlin and Laz and Tonk and ... (The orchestra is starting up, telling me to get off the stage...)

[Terabitten]

What if I get a quickie divorce?

Just my luck. The good ones are always taken.

[StarCMC]

MoJO - you are absolutely insane and I love you too!! HUGS!!!

[arasina]

Egad! Forgot the terrific Alas Babylon! for starting the Sunday News Shows thread each week!

[Howlin]

LOL.....get the hook!

[TankerKC]

Any of the Y2K Gloomers would pull me into a thread prior to the end of the world as we know it. I remember Jethro Tull the most.

[Lady Heron]

Oh my, memories of flame wars. LOL

Kathy for posting pic of my hubby on the Canteen daily.

Ragtime for posting all the military info, and keeping us all informed.

and Mike1sg....he's my hero!

[EllaMinnow]

I pray for you and your Mike every day.

[Long Cut]

I liked MadIvan, too.

As an aside, you KNOW it's the weekend when folks can actually COMPLIMENT people they've had flame wars with...

We are ALL Americans this week. This thread brightens my heart.

[TonyInOhio]

Others have mentioned our notables. I'd like to add a few more:

LS always offers excellent perspective. He's my favorite historian (after Victor Davis Hanson).

I wish I was half as witty as Petronski, and he's not always cranky.

Dan from Michigan knows his politics and his hockey. What more could you want?

Whatever Constitution Day writes is worth reading, trust me.

Dales and DrDeb will help me keep my sanity this fall, I hope. If you have any interest in polling, statistics, or electoral politics, watch their posts.

[TankerKC]

"Damn, I wish I'd said that!"

Or, "Damn, why'd she say that?" ;)
