Yep, it's TODAY! Later this afternoon, I will be making my promised trip down to the local Chinese restaurant, and will attempt to eat 100 or more mussels. Why? To raise money for Free Republic, of course!
You can still help, too. Here's how. So far, dozens of FReepers have pledged to donate a set amount to FR for every mussel I eat. Some have pledged .10 cents a mussel, some .25 cents, $1.00, and more. What can you pledge?
To date, I believe we have a total of $16.05/mussel. If I reach my goal today of 100 mussels, that means $1605.00 will have been raised for FR.
I will be carrying out my duties at 1PM, MST. FReepers in Colorado are welcome to join us at the Grand China Restaurant at 28 1/2 Road & North Avenue (behind AutoZone) in Grand Junction. When it is all said & done, I will post results, along with pics, on another thread.
So, take the time now to get your last minute pledges in. Just post your reply below with the amount you pledge. If you don't want to post here, FReepmail me, and I will include your pledge.
That's it folks. I'm off to get my day started. Here's to hoping I get a good batch of mussels!

That is NOT what you said at our secret code meeting last night. You know, when you told ALL of FR that you were going to be offline for a while.
Great. Don't you REMEMBER what we DID to the bear???? How do you expect me to return it?????????

Medical team is standing by.
To: Harmless Teddy Bear
You're gonna NEED that medical team, if you know what I mean.
To: Brad's Gramma
Don't even think about reneging
grrrrrrr
To: glock rocks; Harmless Teddy Bear; Brad's Gramma
Gee, look what you have done to Snuggles.....do you know how long it's going to take Snuggles to recover from this....not counting the doctor bills from all of your abuse.
None of this would have happened if you and your thugs didn't resort to bearnapping.

On behalf of all forsaken (ursine included) lushes, I think the bear should be released...unless you have sauce for the BBQ.
