Woo hoo!! And with the remaining monthlies rolled in, we're now over 75%!! Less than 25% to go!! We can do this!!
Your loyal support keeps FR alive and is greatly appreciated!!
Free Republic is funded solely by the donations provided by the people who love and use it. We accept no advertising or corporate sponsors. We sell no merchandise or memberships. We are not a 501c and are not subsidized by the government. It's just us independent freedom loving grassroots conservatives exercising our first amendment rights free of any political party, government or outside influences.
No subsidies. No sugar daddies. No string pullers. NO POP-UPS!!
But we need your continuing support to keep it that way and stay on the air!
So please keep those donations coming in folks. With Obama's corrupt Marxist government pulling out all stops on the road to fundamentally transforming America from a free country to a communist state, we need FR now more than ever to keep it free!
Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors who are kicking in an extra ten bucks for each new monthly that signs up. So sign up for a monthly today and get a little extra bang for your buck!!
Woo Hoo!! There are 45 New Monthly Donors so far this FReepathon including 10 New Dollar-A-Day Donors!!
FReeper I_be_tc donates $100 each quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in a $100 or more each, it would help bring the FReepathon to a successful conclusion!! We've received 173 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter!! If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club roster!!
Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 or more, it will help keep FR alive and will be sincerely and truly appreciated!!

From the “Better Late than Never” Department,
Good day to everyone.
As usual, Bryan had to do some repair and part-replacement work on the Cub Cadet before he could mow the lawn.
I keep telling him that “Nothing Runs Like a Deere,” and he finally went to the John Deere dealer this morning and
entered negotiations for using the Cub as a trade-in and finally getting a Deere.
I said that was great because we don’t have to sell it ourselves to some poor person who would just have to take over
the weekly repairs and maintenance on the old lemon. The dealer is coming Tuesday morning to give us an estimate on
the trade-in value of the tractor.
He said, “You can stay in the house when I’m talking to the dealer on Tuesday.”
Thank you all very much!!
Woo hoo!!
BTTT!!
New thread, everyone: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3055830/posts
You can buy a car for the price of a Deere. That makes it a dream machine to me.
Sears is what we use, probably the most basic riding mower they sell.
You can stay in the house...
I would be in the dog house for that one :)
Nah. My problem is that I’m “too honest” sometimes. I have to be more careful about telling it as I see it.
Bryan is almost never in the dog house, and if he is, it’s only until he makes me laugh at the situation, usually about 30 seconds. [smiles]
How big is your yard? We have over an acre of lawn on very irregularly sloping land, and it’s important that Bryan does not have to spend his weekends keeping the lawn tractor in shape before he can even think of mowing, coring, mulching, fertilizing, and all the other tasks performed with the tractor.
The one he has his eye on is not the top of the line, but it is a good, sturdy mid-range model, appropriate for our little acre.
I have been boycotting Sears for 45 years since the totally ripped me off on some car repairs. I started to falter when we bought our first house, but they tried to cheat us again with mortgage shenanigans at the time, and that was the last straw. Sears is dead to me. They lost what might have been a life-long customer, as my mother was.
