I hope it was okay for me to start a new FReepathon thread. I thought the other was getting way too long for people to wade through. (I've never posted a FReepathon thread so please, if I stepped on any toes or did it wrong, forgive me this time?)
ATTENTION - ATTENTION - ATTENTION leapfrog0202 has issued a challenge:
1.The next 15 people that FReepmail me letting me know you used to contribute or just cant now due to being out of work in this lousy economy, personal issues etc. and want to contribute, Ill adopt to the tune of $10 each. You can all remain anonymous, give me just your state, or I can forward your names to Jim for the donations recognition he always places on these threads.
2.Id love LOVE LOVE to have someone else join me in this so that this FReepathon doesnt last til Labor Day! All comers welcome - Ill forward you folks FReepmails after I hit 15.
PLEASE JOIN ME - SEND TO YOUR PING LISTS (I dont maintain any so Im kinda lame as a fundraiser I reckon) TO YOUR MOM, YOUR DAD, YOUR NEIGHBOR, YOUR FRIEND, YOUR ENEMY AND YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW!
This is in addition to my monthly donation & I am thankful I can afford to do this. Thats why Id like to help FR and others. Sure I could just send Jim $150 but its more fun to get others involved and lets people know there are LOTS of folks that care cuz people are struggling.
RedMDer joined in the challenge in post #70 ( here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2550717/posts?page=70#70 ): Ok. I'll join you in the challenge. Keep me posted. I'll join these two fine ladies and contribute $10.00 for 5 FReepers who would like to donate, but just doesn't have the means right now.
FReep mail your name, state and whether you wish to remain anonymous to:
leapfrog0202

I am honored to recieve a personal reply from you, Jim Robinson....
From the bottom of this yankee turned Texans heart I thank you......
Thanks!
Do you have Windows 7? The thread yesterday had the link to the colorizer program but it stopped at XP. I was wondering if anyone knew if it would work with 7?
I have xp on one and the dreaded vista on this one.
*laughing*
You sound like a great dad!
You’re already a pro. RedMDer! Thank you very much for being here! It’s fun, isn’t it?, and a very nice way to thank members and just visit. Just one thing that I was told when I first started to help, and I think now I’m the only one doing it so naybe it doesn’t matter anymore: I post the colored font to anyone but Jim, so he can easier see the posts to him. When he thanks a member, I post the colored font to that member, but when it’s just a woo-hoo, I post it to anyone else here, including myself, by entering in the TO space: Freepers, everyone; and to one or more of our screen names or anyone else I might want to ping....lol.
Yes, I have 7 and I will get you the link right now!
Thank you
YW, I like your colors!
Woo hoo!!
And this just in:
$360.00 from Colorado
$50.00 from Florida
$50.00 from Wisconsin
Thank you all very much!!
Huh? We're not done yet?
