I feel so inadequate and left out! They probably even have a secret handshake or snort or something.

If I can't be a blog - I would gladly be a wood chuck. Except I swear that sign says "Ancient and Horney"
To: Rabid Republican
Do you have any idea what a blog is? That was my original question on this thread. I'm still not 100% clear. From the replies I've read....still seems like what we do. Whatever thread comes from this, I hope TaRa is on it. She has some GREAT pics. They always brings humor to the threads.

Were we suppose to be voting for the first freepers on this thread? I'm not 100% sure what a blog is. But the threads I enjoy the most are the ones TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday! Posts pics on.
So, if this was a voting thread, mine is for TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!

No, and they still haven't explained it - unless they are speaking in BLOG code. And I can't figure out why I don't know about it because I have been on this site everyday for the last four or more years. The word blog brings up a visual like the Creature of the Black Lagoon or SwampThing. Maybe if we wrap our terminals in foil we will starting detecting the incoming messages.

I nominate two FReepers, piasa and section9 if they have the time to invest, and would like to be FR bloggers.
To: Rabid Republican
I am with you, boy do I feel out of it. I have no idea what a BLOG is! Must be one of those reality TV things. I never watch that stuff!
To: ladyinred; Calpernia
Should we put a "We demand to know post?". "Unfair treatment by Freeper Blogs?"
To: I Am Not A Mod
Free Republic is a blog of sorts in its present format, but it's one that informally allows for people of disparate skills and involvement to comment on various and sundry matters of common interest. A blog --- to be good --- requires an excellent writer with an interesting point of view and a willingness to put in the effort to research and link to the issues being commented upon.
My own view is that FR succeeds so nicely because it can accommodate people who are not trying to establish a reputation in the blogosphere, but who merely enjoy the intellectual stimulation that a large like-minded community can provide.
I think you will find that very good writer (there are a few on FR) would be more likely to start up a straight blog of his or her own if he or she is so inclined, rather than do it under the auspices of Free Republic.

What's a BLOG?
That's classified
And do you need a college degree?
No, as some of us only know simple words
And do you have to know how to post properly?
It's never stopped me.

To blog or not to blog?
That is the question.
Weather tis nobler in the mind
to suffer the flames and arrows
of outraged freepers,
or to take arms against a sea of disruptors,
and by opposing..ban them.
