OK Boys and Girls! You've now become Freepers. You're feeling a part of the family, which you ARE! But as with everything in life....nothing is free.

So! Do you see that bar at the top of each and every thread? That's a gentle kick in the rear to donate to FR to keep the lights on.

There's ALSO a bunch of you who've been here for years and haven't donated. Do you know that there's over 200,000 Freepers now? Do you know that you can become a monthly donor and PAINLESSLY donate? Do you know that $5.00 a month by a large number of us will STOP these stupid Freepathons?

You NEVER worry about a thing. It's automatically withdrawn from your credit card, checking account..however you want it set up.

So? Get off your duffs...don't be a FReeloader anymore. It'll make you fell AWFUL good about yourself.

*Disclaimer* To those of you who flat out can't even afford that $5 a month....this message is NOT for you! :) We'd sure appreciate it if you'd just come on over and bump the thread.

Go FORTH! Donate NOW!

Or come on over HERE! and bump the thread!

Consider yourselves nagged.

"hey Grammie spends lots of time there and she's WAY COOL and loads of fun!"

She sure is!!

I beg you to rethink that. Did you see her post #126? (She's scary!)

College student, paying for school, car, food, clothes,

Maybe 10-50 of you? Have a pass; or stop being defensive.

$5.00 per month too much right now? Consider MonroeDNA's $3.00 per month challenge.

Some FReepers use Computers at the library,because they can't afford to buy one!

May well be. What 50? Got names?

That leaves several thousands, to who whom this thread is addresed.

MacDorcha,
Thanks for bumping the thread; it also helps.

[Rushmore Rocks]

Proud to be a member of the "Dollar a Day" club. Sure cheaper than all the subsciptions to Newsweek, Time, US News&World Report.

Better news, faster news, more accurate news on FRee Republic.

It is well worth one dollar a day.

[TexKat]

I already gave at the office. Thanks for the ping. I'll in turn send out a ping for you.

Or you could cut others some slack and simply do what you can while you can. Forget what others fail at, do what YOU can.

Just give Grammie a bottle of whiskey and she'll ignore the bear.

You're giving more than I do, sneakers.....and I'm a jabbermouth...oh oh.

OH oh.

Ohhhhhhhhhh oh.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

I have one name,but that is not the point!

By calling others, that might not be able to make a donation at the moment,bums is wrong!

Like MacDorcha said,he will donate as soon as he can and that should be honored,IMO!

If I didn't have the money to donate at the moment,which has been the case in the past and I would read your post,I would be very offended and might not want to donate because of this insensitivity to my financial situation!

It is all good and fine if you can afford it,but it might be hard for others!

Try being a little bit more compassionate and helpful to other FReepers that can't make such a commitment!

When my husband first came to FR we donated here and there when we could and that seemed to be just fine with Jim,because those contributions help as well.

I guess you have never been poor or struggled to make ends meet!

I patty you!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Anyone who is not in a position to contribute financially can make much needed donation of their time by helping with the FReepathon threads.

BUMP!!!!!!!!!!

[Brad’s Gramma]

What, uh, currency did your pig use?

[Brad’s Gramma]

STEAL AWAY!!!! I love ya too, Mrs. N!
