FreeRepublic Fundraiser -- Important -- FreeRepublic NEEDS Your Help! (Thread 43)

8/31 -- 9/5/2001 | Topaz & Ron C.

It will be very easy for you to say, "Well, I will do something, some day. When I can afford it, I am going to." But would you let an old "grad" tell you one thing now? Giving is a habit. Get into the habit now, because you will never be able to afford to give and contribute, thus to repay the obligation you owe to those people who made this college possible, if you wait until you think you can afford it. Start now regardless of how small, and in the days to come when you are confronted with demands for many worthwhile causes and charities I think you will find that you will give dutifully to all the worthy ones. But here and there you will pick one or two that will be favorites, and you can do no better than to pick this, your Alma Mater, because you will not only be repaying your own personal obligations, you will be making your contribution to the very process which has made and continues to keep America great.
This democracy of ours which sometimes we've treated so lightly, is more than ever a comfortable cloak, so let us not tear it asunder, for no man knows once it is destroyed where or when he will find its protective warmth again. - Ronald Reagan

Help keep the dream alive!

Imagine if there was no Free Republic... gasp!

- No Sore Loserman protests to save an election...

- No Washington Times Ad pushing Congress to Impeach...

- No exposing of traitorous public officials...

- No media watchdog to ferret out the bias...

- No Breaking News...

For these reasons and a thousand others, please support Free Republic

While the large donations are exciting, the small ones may be more treasured ...... they may actually be sacrificial. So don't be reluctant to give if your donation can only be $5 or $10 ..... those are vital to the success of FR. And bumps help, too! :-) - posted by WillaJohns -

Free Republic is a user supported website that runs off the brains, experience, energy, and yes, the cash, of freepers and lurkers. It is an undeniable fact that Free Republic has been instrumental in stopping the liberals with their socialist agenda, and keeping up the fight for conservative causes and against corruption in government.

If you feel strongly that Free Republic has made a difference and you want to see it continue on, please send in a donation of whatever your heart moves you to send.

FreeRepublic and Jim Robinson's finances

[kayak]

It's the third item in breaking news ..... "Michael Jordan Returns To NBA"

[headsonpikes]

Just dribbling a Bump through.

[Fred Mertz]

When you FReeoples get a chance, please give us a bump and some cheerful words. Thanks!

Thanks. I just checked it. I've always liked MJ. I think it would be a shame for him to go away before we get to see him in a Hanes Depends commercial.

[2ndMostConservativeBrdMember]

Oh! How cute!

[ValerieUSA]

Hi Fred - Sweetie wants to bump the thread

[blam]

Thanks for the reply, I'm being flunkled everywhere tonight. (Is that the right word where everyone ignores you?)

[kayak]

Well, I see where she gets her name ...... she truly does look like a real Sweetie ....... :-)

[Askel5]

FLUNKLED? I'm rapt at attention ... wherever did you get that word?!?

[blam]

Beautiful dog picture.

[NeoCaveman]

Bwahahahahahaha
NC you still have the rapier wit, I went monthly earlier this freepathon, but I'll happily bump ya.

[kayak]

I think the correct term is *funkle* .... that's when you have 5 replies in a row with no one else responding in between ..... it's a word that was coined right here on a FReepathon Thread.

I'm not sure who came up with it ..... 2ndMost, maybe?

[blam]

"FLUNKLED? I'm rapt at attention ... wherever did you get that word?!?" There's an FR word for whenever you've been ignored a set number of times on a thread. (Someone help me out here/)

[2ndMostConservativeBrdMember]

funkled. Lol I was in a funkle here! So I went cruising a little.

[Askel5]

I may have messed up my contribution somehow ... let me know if I need to redo.

[Fred Mertz]

Hiya Askel!

Thanks for your earlier generou$ contribution.

I saw you on that priest thread. It reminded me of when Pope John Paul II took charge; he ordered that priests in elective office resign and get back to being priests. I remember this because the mayor of our city was a Catholic priest at the time.

[2ndMostConservativeBrdMember]

It was in a Burma Shave I wrote during the last Freepathon. It's when you realize you are talking to yourself on a thread. 5 posts in a row from yourself constitutes a funkle.

[2ndMostConservativeBrdMember]

Fantastic! Thanks for the monthly and thanks for the bump!

[headsonpikes]

"I'm being flunkled everywhere tonight."

So that's what it's called! But don't you start complaining, I've been ignored by experts!

Fully Inspected and Licensed Technicians of Higher Ignorance. That's FILTHI, of course.

Nobody's ignoring you; it's just that no one's not ignoring you.

I hope that helps you recover from your flunkling!
