80,000 Freepers and Growing - Freepathon

3-1-02 | Topaz

[Topaz]

When Jim Robinson started Free Republic in September, 1996 to expose the corruption in government and particularly the Clinton Whitehouse, he was alone. Now six years later, Free Republic has 80,000 registered members and who knows how many visit this site often, just to keep up on the latest conservative thinking.

Folks, you all know where this is going, Free Republic is a user supported website and it is time to support it. Four times a year we have this freepathon to donate a few dollars to pay for the bandwidth and expenses necessary to keep Free Republic online, and we do so with gratitude and cheer because of what is offered and accomplished by the existence of Free Republic.

Free Republic does not charge a membership fee or get supported by a government grant. No, people from across the World make donations large and small because they see the value of Free Republic. So if you're one that appreciates this site and want to see it continue, please send in a few dollars to help keep it alive.

Good windy afternoon

How'd you know?

Stuck inside this afternoon, can't see across the street for the blowing snow. I guess winter had to make an appearance sometime....

Oh, about the time the global-warming advocates say that you ought to be broiling steaks on the sidewalk <VBG>

Hi Westy
when I walked Lulu (my basset) this morning
a little boy pointed and said ''airplanes flying all morning''
his big brother looked up and said ''must be an airshow in town''
I said ''is there an airshow this weekend''
he said ''it's an A10, a fighter jet, and a world war 11 plane''
''how often do we use WW II planes these days''
Love, Palo

Once again, if I've re-flagged you, just take it as a reminder for you to flag others. Those who have already donated? Thank you!

Take a moment to flag a couple of others you know, and tell 'em to "pass it on..."

Now that is a very classy home page!!!

We got about the only number that was in every forecast; 6" (the first forecasts were 3-6, then 6-10, then 6-12, then 6-10 again). It was essentially in 2 bursts; 3" between 9 and 2 last night, another 3" between noon and 3 this afternoon (and some drizzle in between).

Time to sort the states list, shrug off some numbers that d14truth had that I didn't find, and run them through.

Thank you Ohio!
