Favorite FReepers...
Me. | April 9, 2004 | Long Cut

Posted on 04/09/2004 2:37:38 PM PDT by 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?????????????????

isom35 of course. he's witty, smart, takes jabs at all sides, but in even the silliest posts, there is a nugget of wisdom.

ALL FReepers are my favorites! I have yet to meet, and I have had the good fortune to have become personally aquainted with a good number of them, a FReeper I didn't genuinely like! Not a single one!

If I had to choose standouts they would be:

Jim Robinson without whom there would BE no FreeRepublic!

Chief Negotiator who became my friend and whom I miss greatly.

Ancient_Geezer whos depth of knowledge about, and passion for, the most important piece of legislation currently pending in Washington (H.R. 25) is simply astounding!

Iron Jack who writes FAR better than most. and

Alamo Girl who has compiled more history than ANYONE can digest fully.

Favorite FReeper? Why, the BicycleSpankenTruppen from the FReeper Foxhole, of course.

Hey "Bigun", we need to get to know you better. Put more stuff on your profile page. We tend to grow closer to those we know something about. We are neighbors. That's all I know for sure. But I'm sure I would love you.

I've suspected all along that all these FReepers were actually just one poster with multiple personality disorder, likes to argue, has a huge amount of bandwith and oodles of time on their hands. A truly amazing individual who I hope leaves his/her brain to science.

I remember tuco-bad. During the last election he kept saying Bush would never win if he couldn't take New York or California. Hee...

12:30 until fifteen past one, and you missed the prematurely gray guy above the Marina wearing the blue sport coat, drainpipe Levis and roachkiller boots?

LOL. I had The Creation CD right out there for you to see if you walked by and noticed...

You exposed yourself? Good grief!

Not quite. After he told us he was a Clintoon supporter, we undressed him with our eyes.

YES!......But even now that I have received such recognition from my fellow freeper(s) I vow to not return to my spiderhole of mediocrity. I will take this appreciation from my peers and let it be a motivating factor in my goal to become a Favorite FReeper of all freepers. Thank you all(Diverdogz) for your support and here's to becoming a more active contributor to Freerepublic.

Me too Pip. You know you would be on my list for sure. You, with your childlike sweetness and trust. I think that's what makes your "rants" so effective. They are so unlike you. LOL. ((((((Pip))))))

Which marina? The North Cove yacht harbor? I was just north of there -- on a bench right next to the river and listening to my brand new Blondie CD. I was wearing a red t-shirt, black windbreaker, black leggings, black sunglasses, black sneakers and a blonde ponytail. :)

LOL. Bigun, I just gave fiftymegaton your nick name. I figured if he was fiftymegaton he must be awfully big.
