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.

Oh my my .. 4th of July parades sure have changed since I was little
There is only one 4th of July parade around here that I am aware of....it's tomorrow morning and is a "non-motorized" event, except for the sherrif and VFD vehicles that lead it. Everyone in the county is invited and encouraged to dress up in patriot colors and walk or ride (bicyles and horse) the route to the center of town where all participants get popsicles!!!!!!!
Gotta love small town America!!!!
Oh, and this town happens to be the county seat!!!!
I've always dreamed of living in a small town .. just wasn't in the cards for me.
Actually when I was little I wanted to own a farm when I grew up .. I even went to an agricultural high school
Not only am I a card carrying member of the VRWC ... I'm also (well use to be) a member of the FFA
Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
If you don't do-nate,
I will spam you.
Naaaaaaaaaaaa
Back to the drawing board....
You at work??
I've got a few minutes till swim lesson .. so I think I'll go bomb a few threads
I fell in love with the idea of small town when I was a teenager, but always thought I would go back to the city after doing it for a while.(I grew up in NYC)
I've gone a step further now - I live in the middle of no where, but am surrounded by small towns. The population of this entire county is less than or equal to that of the city of Dover.
FR makes me happy
Kerry makes me sad
If you don't donate, I'll keep posting
the poetry that's bad.
Yuck Yuck Yuck
I need to burn my drawing board.... lol
