"...but hardly nobody goes into the saloon no more now that the pig don't sing" Petunia might not sing anymore but she's still hustling drinks down by the fleet landing.

Those were the days, the Clinton scandals were a lot of fun. Good times.What are you smoking?? Personally, I'm so glad to be rid of that loser that I can barely contain my glee.

I do! My cousin first told me about FR. Monica was the theme of many threads. I posted under a different screen name and then changed last year when Bush picked Cheney as his running mate. It was worth going through newbie status all over again....

That's great! If only it had the song to go along with it. I nearly fell out of my chair LOL the first time a heard it. (When I saw your disruptor alert at first I thought you were calling me a disruptor and I thought "of all the nerve!")

We are a pretty like-minded bunch until a religion thread starts up.Or, until a Buchanan thread, or a legalization of drugs thread, or Keyes thread, or a favorite music thread, or an abortion thread, or a stem-cell thread, or a Rush thread or, a Moderator's thread or a . . . thread starts up. ;-)
Viva FR! Viva JimRob & JohnRob! What did I do before March '98 when I first found this place????

Finding FR in 97/98 was like coming Home.

OMG, Freepin in 1998! When we were believing that justice would prevail (The shoes are droppin now, man, clinton's gonna get his, THIS time). I think I had an adrenaline rush for a solid 2 years. Hey, does anyone remember when we actually THOUGHT the Republican Senate would kick as*?!? Gawd, how I loathe lott to this day.
All I can say is thank God & Jim that FreeRepublic was around back then. I really thought I was all alone in my thinking until I stumbled here from Drudge. I would never have withstood the clinton years if not for the Freepers. And I mean that.

So what was your former screen name? Your profile page is great (as is your picture in the Freeper album). In the words of Dick Vitale, "You're Awesome, Babeeee!"

A+Bert could be annoying at times but was always the spark for an amusing flame war. LOL.

I signed up in December 1997, that was when registration became mandatory. I think it has been around since late 1996 I think I was Lurking near the beginning and you could post each post under whatever name you pleased. I used to use Tom or Thomas, but that became confused with Eschior and I used to get flamed for no reason.
BTW I found this though the Progressive Review who said it was the best Whitewater resource on the net. I found Druge from FR. Take That Matt.

AH....glad to see you, harrowup!
If you remember, I was responsible for the founding of our idyllic Freeper Island.
It was on a thread about Susan McDougal and the Nancy Mehta lawsuit in California.
I merely suggester to Billie that she and I use Nancy's credit card to go out to lunch.
Before you knew it, others wanted to go too. and then Invictus piped up to say if things got any worse under Clinton he was going to sail back to an island in the Marquesas - the only place he'd found that was untouched by war. (He was with MacArthur in WWII)
Before we knew it, Clarity said he wanted to go, and all of us joined the crew -
Cap'n Daus took us there.
So many great memories!!!

I joined up in a hurry back in 98 and named myself the first word that came to mind - have wished a number of times that I'd come up with a really clever name (like yours).

Thanks for the links to the archives, but I cannot connect to the links contained therein. Are they defunct?

...the best Whitewater resource on the net.In days of yore it really was the 'Whitewater Bulletin Board'. When ISP's started becoming readily available everyone was ready to leave Prodigy. Jim set up his own website; Ken (SamAdams76) scouted it out and came back to report that it was a good format and suggested everyone hang out there. The rest is history.
