I joined FR in July 1998 after 6 months of lurking.....and have been a Freeperholic ever since.

There should be 'WARNING; FR is Highly Addictive'......on the registration page.....LOL
However, I have found it to be a 'positive addiction that keeps many of us sane and well informed.

Here's to you, Mr. Robinson!

Thanks for the best place on the WWW....You created a forum for conservatives to gather.....and together....we have all made history!

Thanks for posting this, Dak. Ping for later review.

I lurked for a few months before joining in Jan 1998. Those were heady times.

Thank you, Jim, for starting Free Republic. You have made life very interesting and your forum has singlehandedly brought down Dan Rather. When that happened I crossed the line from being quiet about admitting I was a freeper and started feeling proud about it.

I will pray for you today.

I joined 19 days after you did! But, unlike you, I can quit anytime I want to. :-)
