Howdy everyone,

Are you ready for a FReepathon?

The state of our FR is strong!

Our big legal bill is now paid off and our budgetary requirements are now reduced. For the first time in our history, our monthly donations are now bringing in more than 50% of our quarterly budget! Thanks to our generous membership and the settlement with the City of Fresno, we now have a comfortable cash buffer and should have no problems meeting our coming tax payments and other obligations.

I've recalculated our estimated budget requirements for the remainder of the year and have posted them here:

We just completed the first loop of our nationwide tour and we had a great time! We traveled through eleven states in three weeks and FReeped with, met with and dined with FReepers in ten cities and from at least a dozen chapters. It's great to see all our old friends again and to meet new ones. Joining a gathering of FReepers is just like going a family reunion. Very warm and friendly and just like home. Thank you all so much for your gracious hospitality and friendship!

We hope to visit all fifty states and most of our chapters within the next year or so. We hope to visit our LA Chapter on the 1st of August to tour the Reagan Library. We hope to visit our San Diego Chapter sometime this month to welcome home the USS Ronald Reagan. We're also planning a Pacific Northwest Tour in August. In January, we're planning a trip across the South and down into Florida and then up the Eastern Coast to Washington, DC for the Free Republic George W Bush Inaugural Ball II!! Woo hoo!!

Well, with the war in Iraq all but concluded, the trial of the Butcher of Iraq about to start, and the election season heating up, I'm sure that FR is going to be THE place to be to get the very latest in news and conservative discussion in the coming months.

Thank you FReepers for making FR the premier conservative forum on the Internet!

Looking forward to the coming campaign season! Good luck to all and may the very best people be chosen to lead our great nation!

Thank God for our successes thus far in the war for freedom and may He guide us through to complete victory over tyranny and terrorism.

Thank you and may God bless you all.

Jim

BUMP BY while watching the kids in the pool .. and BBL

Even a dollar a month is easier for FR to budget. LE and I have no kids since both of mine are grown. And she was too smart to have the little demons i mean darlings.

Everyone doesn't need to be a dollar a day donor! But everyone can give something!!! I'd hate for FReepathons to go away cause I like em.

You and CB make a commitment that is easily budgeted by FR. That, not the Amount is what matters.

[Conspiracy Guy]

I stole that from One Flew Over the Coo Coo's nest.

You could go to my profile page and buy her a copy of each of my books!

That's for hubby to do for MY birthday!!!!!!!!!!! And I will see to it that he does!!!!

I meant - I've got to come up with something to put up on this thread and the other threads I do on Friday's for her to see.

We're not doing all that much tomorrow - we are having her first real birthday party on the 17th. Tomorrow we are going to pick out her "theme" and invitations so she can get them in the mail.....she's so excited (I'm underwhelmed)

[Jim Robinson]

Ok, thanks. I'll see if I can get John to fix it.
Thanks,
Jim

My oldest granddaughter is into fancy decorated cakes, so I've saved a gazillion pictures of them. If you let me know a theme, I'll see if I have one that's appropriate.

I know I have a cowboy one and an "under the sea" one. Some butt-ugly (imo) Barbie doll ones. $25000 goldleaf-trimmed ones. Etc. ;)

I'm in the middle of two very time-consuming projects plus my FReeping plus the FReepathon, so I doubt I'll be creating any new graphics in the next week. Sadly, "coloring" has to be put on the back burner occasionally. ... But I may have some other stuff already that'd be appropriate. ???

[Gabz]

Good Grief - you're starting to sound like me, when I'm not being NUTZ.........that's scary!!!!!

[Mo1]

she's so excited (I'm underwhelmed)

Yea ... but she'll love ya even more for her special day

Soooooooooooooo ... how many screaming little rugrats did you invite *L*

I was distracted so I didn't get the whole thing...I believe he's in Seattle. He said the Dems have bought up a huge block of Moore tickets and are scalping them...and making big money.

The idiots who are AGAINST capitalism!!!
