Just received another anonymous tip that the Lord of the Flies is reporting our great "crime" to the USSS. I presume this means George Bush is going to send the federal troops out to get us. Oh, my. I hate it when the federales crash in my doors at night. Oh, well, if my keyboard suddenly goes quiet, you'll know the got me.

Back from Jeopardy with Freeper Friends, and hoping.

My very best to you and Willa! JL

Yeah! Now that would be great! If we can't get George, maybe we can get Harry, or Alan or Pat.

Remind Joe that there's another 50 bones to FR if he can ever learn to make hot links. No cheating guys.

After reading Jim's reply part of which I have posted below. I now realize, that when we donate to Free Republic. We keep it alive for those who don't have a life except to complain about Free Republic. Without a vibrant Free Republic these pathetic creatures might not have anything to live for.
So donate to Free Republic so these pathetic creatures will have a reason to get up each morning to hate Free Republic and to bother Jim.
Here is part of Jim's reply:
I've received quite a bit of email from banned posters in the last day or so, plus several anonymous complaints and remarks. Seems the bannees are taking great delight in their perceived belief that the current fundraiser is not doing so well. Well, we're not quite a full four days into the fundraiser and we're at 20% from credit card donations. Not bad. And, when you roll in the $21,000 in monthlies, plus the 8,000 to 9,000 that we usually receive in checks and through PayPal, we'll be over 60%. That's fantastic!
Also, receiving a lot of snickering remarks about the 84,000 FReeper number. Yes, that's the number of registrations we've had, but obviously we do not have 84,000 active FReepers (at least not registered active FReepers). The server stats show 65 to 75 thousand unique visits per day and I know that during big news events that number goes a lot higher, so I wouldn't doubt that we do approach 80,000 FReepers and LURKERS.
Also, receiving many nasty remarks about how can it cost $300,000 per year to run this website. Well, the short answer is, it doesn't. Our budget totals a little over $20,000 per month in regular recurring expenses. That includes 6,000 for management, 1,000 for admin, 3,000 for programming, 5,800 for bandwidth, 3,000 for legal and the remainder is for office expenses, travel, lodging and misc. Plus there's usually repairs, maintenance, improvements, projects, events, etc., that are budgeted and funds raised separately. Our bandwidth price this year is a couple thousand less than last year, but some of the other expenses are higher so I expect we'll probably need about the same amount overall. ----------------------------------------------------------
So keep Free Republic alive so these pathetic creatures will have something to look forward to each day of their miserable lives. They need to hate Free Republic and to bother Jim! Donate big so they will have something to really hate and live for!

To: Jim Robinson
What, was this from a former freeper named "Lord of the flies?" How the heck am I supposed to snicker at his posts if you ban him? Geeze...
I'll be donating tomorrow - it's payday.
To: Grampa Dave
These innocents are prepared to give their young lives to get the cheap moochers to come correct.

All that these cry babies can do is whine to each other about how great Freerepublic is and is doing compared to their nowhere sites of 10 or 20 banned fruitcakes. Must be sad to sign on and then wait hours for someone to answer their little rant. LOL
