MIDLAND FREEPERS step up to the plate for a DC type freep.

Week after week we read the wonderful exploits and chances for freeping that the D.C. freepers do. Now is your chance for Midland, TX freepers.

The SBC HQ in Midland TX is being protested. How about a freep to liven up Midland?

The protesters have been showing up 7am-about 10am and then quitting and coming back at the end of the day like 5-7pm.

From what I hear the offer SBC put on the table until Monday midnight is a good offer. It has better benefits than the management is getting.

How about someone who stands for capitalism, fair deals for the business owners, or just wanting a good time? Or maybe you have always wanted that chance to freep or do something different.

I was in Odessa last week and happened to pass by a small group of people along the road with signs that mentioned SBC. I gathered that they were part of the folks picketing SBC. Only about 12-15 of 'em but they did have a US flag flying.

Yes, I did hear that they had a US flag, quite unlike the usual crowd we go against.

But they are going out on strike when they got a fair shake and they are costing lots of money, and disprupting lots of lives..... why?

Blame it on their union leadership, who probably didn't get their payoff envelope of cash.
