Howdy everyone,
Are you ready for a FReepathon?
The state of our FR is strong!
Our big legal bill is now paid off and our budgetary requirements are now reduced. For the first time in our history, our monthly donations are now bringing in more than 50% of our quarterly budget! Thanks to our generous membership and the settlement with the City of Fresno, we now have a comfortable cash buffer and should have no problems meeting our coming tax payments and other obligations.
I've recalculated our estimated budget requirements for the remainder of the year and have posted them here:

We just completed the first loop of our nationwide tour and we had a great time! We traveled through eleven states in three weeks and FReeped with, met with and dined with FReepers in ten cities and from at least a dozen chapters. It's great to see all our old friends again and to meet new ones. Joining a gathering of FReepers is just like going a family reunion. Very warm and friendly and just like home. Thank you all so much for your gracious hospitality and friendship!
We hope to visit all fifty states and most of our chapters within the next year or so. We hope to visit our LA Chapter on the 1st of August to tour the Reagan Library. We hope to visit our San Diego Chapter sometime this month to welcome home the USS Ronald Reagan. We're also planning a Pacific Northwest Tour in August. In January, we're planning a trip across the South and down into Florida and then up the Eastern Coast to Washington, DC for the Free Republic George W Bush Inaugural Ball II!! Woo hoo!!
Well, with the war in Iraq all but concluded, the trial of the Butcher of Iraq about to start, and the election season heating up, I'm sure that FR is going to be THE place to be to get the very latest in news and conservative discussion in the coming months.
Thank you FReepers for making FR the premier conservative forum on the Internet!
Looking forward to the coming campaign season! Good luck to all and may the very best people be chosen to lead our great nation!
Thank God for our successes thus far in the war for freedom and may He guide us through to complete victory over tyranny and terrorism.
Thank you and may God bless you all.
Jim
Very, very fast.

Well .. I guess we can let it slide ... j/k
God Bless You and Thank You!! {{{HUGS}}}
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiggggghhhhhttt!
Well, wink wink, have a good night's (hehe) sleep!
OK. Will do!
MO! I'm watching you!!!
What did you do? I'm newly married (last september), although we've been dating for 10 years this august.
Grammie ... HAHAHA .. that's a lost cause
I've learned to just step back and let her do her thang
Besides .. I need her to get rid of her crazy neighbors so I can get my bigger house in Sunny California
My cyberstalkers are a lot of fun, to a certain extent. Actually I should say they USED to be fun.
I could go on for pages about the why's and who of these people, but I won't. Ignoring them was an alternative at one time - unfortunately it is not any longer.
I do not take threats of my child being removed from me lightly......particularly when I am being publicly accused of being affilitated with hate groups, white supremecist groups, and other groups associated with terrorist organizations.
Have a great Independence Day. Thanks for what you have done and all that you do.
You're a better woman than I am!!!!!
I told her to name it Mom, she's thinking about that one.
Yeah!
You be NICE to me!!!
I still like The Big G, but since you HAVE put more time into her than I...Mom would be nice, too.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiggggghhhhhttt!
Well, wink wink, have a good night's (hehe) sleep!
LOL!
Okay.
Nite yall.
Kuwait! Awesome!
You sound like me and mine!!!!
4 months shy of 10 years together we finally got married - together 16 years, married 7.
Well ... all my nagging didn't do a thing
One night he thought he was having a heart attack .. turned out to be just gas though
Anyhow .. it scared him enough to get a check up .. where he found out that he had REALLY high blood pressure
The doctor said he needed a new diet, more rest .. and pills
He could do all the above except the rest part ... he snored so bad that he would stop breathing and wasn't getting a good night sleep
When he did that .. I use to bounce the bed to jump start his breathing
Anyhow .. got side tracked
Well the doc sent him to a sleep study thingy .. where he failed BIG TIME ... he stopped breathing like every minute
Soooooo his choices to fix the problem was to sleep with an oxygen mask or have laser surgery on his throat
He went for the surgery.
The first week was rough and he lost 20 pounds .. but after a few weeks he was better ..and now he sleeps all night and doesn't stop breathing anymore
I knew we had tons in common, but this? I'm disappointed you didn't wake him up the other night to see the hot interns at the hospital. He so deserves to be disrupted. Why is it men snore and keep their ladies awake? Dont' you get tired of nudging them?
Oh .. and if you can .. I suggest getting a king size bed .. that way when he rolls over .. he's not snoring right in your face .. that use to drive me NUTS! .. LOL
