Hello Folks:
It's May 1st and I'd like to ask you for a little help. The current Freepathon started on April 1st. Here we are a month later and the total given or pledged is sputtering toward the finish line. I appreciate everyone's constributions to date. It's impressive that we come together like this to support the forum. Despite the great job that has been done, I still think we can do better.
We are still thousands from the goal. I'd like to put a big dent in the amount remaining to be covered. Will some of you please join me to end this today.
As soon as I hit the post key, I am going to contribute $100 more to the Freepathon. I would appreciate it if others would join me, and we could retire this Freepathon by late this afternoon.
Those who can, please join me with $100. Those who can't, how about $50 or $25.
We're not that far from the goal. A little over Fifty of us could end this thing. Are there fifty of you out there willing to join me?
How about it?
Thanks in advance to those who do join me. I appreciate it and I know Jim and John will also.
Sweet? Smmmufffff, Yeah, that’s it, sweet. Just don’t get her angry. You’ll be soooorrrryyyyy.
Does it count if I appologize again? ;-)
No! Because after fightinJag's apology its into the cage with the both of you and Brad's Gramma is the ref..........
It’s a disgrace that folks use and use and use and use with never a thought to help pay the bills.
Sometimes I wish Jim would just shut it down.
You are SO lucky I'm sitting here with a Starbucks, Mister.....
Yeah, that DID sound a tad ...... weird, didn’t it????
Hey! Ole Nan\!
I’ve been made a REF!!! YOUSE better watch it! I’m still suffering from caffeine loss.ll
< note to self >
Proof read. PROOF read prior to posting.
LOL... It’s going to be a very dull match, take it from me.
It can get frustrating to be sure. Thanks for the mention Don-O.
I know, I know...
I need a double helping of that myself.
It’s sad to see someone whose contributions I have valued, come to this. = :-(
Hey CJ,
I think it’s perfectly reasonable to want to know how the money’s spent, and I would think Jim and John Robinson would appreciate your interest. You can post to either of them and ask (though, as I’m sure you know, Jim’s laid up right now).
Yeah well........I wanna know something.
Is this the thread where I can come to to complain about an action of a mod? It is? Fine. I have a complaint.
I found a poster the other night who I KNOW was a sleeper of some sort.....saved the dude’s home page so I could remember the screen name and come back and (harrass) engage him in a conversation the next day........and in the middle of the night, a mod (sit down).....had the NOIVE to nuke his account.
I’m tellin’ ya, DO, it was a sad day.......
Thanks for this thread, Doughty. I, too, have been a little concerned about the slowness of this quarter’s donations, so a few days ago I doubled my quarterly contribution. FreeRepublic is worth it—I can’t imagine not having this great place to discuss conservative issues and increase my understanding.
Well said, Nan.
By the way, Colorado’s in 7th place! Woohoo! Pretty good for a “smaller” state, eh?
