Does anybody else have other pictures from the 2001 Ball that they'd like to share? Please post them here and share your stories, too!

We're preparing for another fun Freeper Ball on Inauguration night 2005, with Governor Huckabee and Capitol Offense doing a repeat performance.

For more information on tickets, dinner, accomodations and more, the Free Republic W2 Inaugural Ball (2005) announcement thread is here.

Jim Robinson doesn't look anything like I thought he would from his screen name. : )

Of course, Rush didn't look anything like I thought he would either.

Looks like lots of fun.

How about a Midwest meeting?

Thanks for the post of the photos. We had a great time at the ball in 2001.

Thank you for the memories Beth. Honest, I never knew that picture was taken with my wife and son.

Lots of good memories in all of those pictures.

It's sad that LBGA won't be there anymore.

She used to be the keeper of the photos, didn't she?

Wonder how her children are doing now...

• I haven't seen that pic in quite awhile, but bootless looks awesome in that hat. :-)

• I'm the one in the Disgraceland pic btwn Klintoon and Goron.

• It still doesn't seem right LBGA isn't with us. I miss her.

• Anyhoo, Here are my pics

Gah now I need to dig around and find the kid pics from the Ball :) There were a number of young FReepers there too :)

[Alia]

I might still be able to go. I'm just waiting on others to get their schedules straight for a very important event, so I can figure out if I can go. These photos make me want to go.. even more!

Is it my imagination or are all FR women beautiful?

Bo and go (go's eyes always look like that after copious amounts of Guinness Extra Stout, to date there is no cure, although the experimentatiom continues)
