It's Compliment Weekend at FR!
None | 6/21/02 | AGYG

Posted on 06/21/2002 9:18:04 AM PDT by anniegetyourgun

Given the carping and nasty nature of FR as of late, I thought it might be a good time to see the more civil and gracious side of participants. Here is a thread for just that purpose – to edify, encourage, and thank.

Ever wanted to thank that unsung FR hero? Agree or disagree, why not tell JohnHuang2 or Registered how much you appreciate their skills. And can you imagine the many hours Alamo-Girl puts into her work? Perhaps you appreciate how well the folks over at Word For The Day wield their words. Or maybe you just want to tell WIMom and her gang that you’re sorry for all your unkind words about the recent Freepathon ads, and thank her for all her hard work on that. Maybe you are an FR Radio fan. Well, you get the idea.

What this thread is NOT for: complaints against the management, flaming those you disagree with, bashing the current administration, leaving your opus, whinning about someone being banned, criticizing FR spelling, grammar, or sentence structure, calling out newbies (unless they are disrupting this thread, of course), shilling for your candidacy, carping about a particular regular thread. Well, you get the idea.

Freep on…..

P.S. No, I’m not fishing for compliments. I’ve already been called every name in the book here on FR, and “toothless hag” is still my personal favorite.

I want to personally thank these two freepers for seeing problems and then getting us involved to help solve those problems.

Jeff was one of the main saviors for the farmers, ranchers an their families in the Klamath Basin. Then, his nation wide petition dced the PC statute of the firemen in NYC re the flag raising.

Clovis Skeptic alerted us to the Jihad in America group near Fresno. Now that revered group (revered by the PC Fresno Bee) is gone and out of there. They no longer receive our tax $'s for their phoney charter school.

Of course none of this would have been done if not for Free Republic and the Robinsons.

Keep Free Republic strong so we have a weapon and forum against the dark side. Become a regular monthly donor to Free Republic. It is the best investment we can make to insure the future of our children and grandchildren here and to come into this dangerous world. Did those home grown terrorist leave the Fresno area and move to your area? One way to find out is via the Freepers who watch for these creeps and report them on Free Republic.

Very well put. I'm glad you are now able to be freer in your contributions to the good fight. I enjoy your posts and especially all the southern threads. Besides, I admire a man who knows his barbecue! ;-)

For Grammie: Thank you for your thoughtful ways Mom...for caring, making me giggle, a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, for being a dear friend in the midst of everything. I love you.

For rintense: Thank you for your dedicated posting of the Dose. It's soooo appreciated by many!

For Spookie: You're a precious friend. Thanks for backing me up and even setting me straight! You're priceless.

Hey Grammie! Didja hear that??? Spookie's priceless and you're NOT!

For Admiralsn: Thought you might enjoy this.

**Thank you two for 'fighting' all the time, and making me laugh. **

Thinking back...it all started when Grammie was having a hot flash standing bare naked in front of an open window. She's such a hussie. And YOU dear fellow were almost speechless. Oh what the Dose has done to all of us.

Thank you, but the credit is all due to various FReepers. Their insight and ability to properly skewer Timmy Potato Russet, Bob "Purple-faced Rage" Shieffer, Spam and Kookie, Wolfie, and even Tony Snow, Juan, and Mara make the thread a much better read than watching the shows themselves. I enjoy posting it for this reason.

I would like to take time to thank the wonderful FReeper ladies of the Puget Sound Chapter for their commitment in FReeping the XXX-potus and participating in other rallies:
Angry Elephant, gopsue, Vicki, Goodnesswins, Ethical, and noexcuses. Also, there are some new ENERGETIC members of our group: Welcome Judai and SleavelessinSeattle!

I've been too busy hacking Islamic web sites. I got the Spam Luncheon Meat virus almost ready to upload. It makes mincemat (pun intended) out of all pubic hair like writing.

Gotta give Registered credit for that reference.
