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
Sounds like a plan
My Local talk radio is talking about the guys that fill up the ATM machines are going on strike
He's asking for callers who remember life before ATM's
HAHAHA ... sadly I do
LoL's!!!
Where are the law suites and Kennedy taxes??
Great tag line Gabz!
I think I will hold off on the pinata - unless she asks for it (which she hasn't)
I figure they will get the beating the daylights out of thing out of their system with the mini golf!!!!
FReepathon bump!
Alrighty then! We have next door neighbors we'll somehow get rid of...then we'll knock a hole in the fence, and your girls can use the pool whenever they want!
Dave Barry and those types of columns keep me in stiches for days and days!!!!!!!!
Oh ya just gotta get one
One year I bought a pony one .. they broke the broom stick I gave them to use .. so then I had to get the baseball bat out after that
Let's say ... it wasn't pretty ... funny as heck .. but not pretty
YUP!!!!!!!!!
OOPS...........not paying attention.......major apologies.
Love your charts and numbers!!!!!
By the way, that column is old enough that I bet if you google the phrase "Party's over for all those poor piñatas" that some other site already has it up where you won't need a pw/to register.
BTW .. I heard on the radio that NJ Governor Mcgreevy is now going to tax kids braces
The guy wants to know what's next .. Gramma's Dentures ???
I'm outta here for awhile. Keep Gramma out of trouble (and the beer!!!) while I'm gone. ;)
So we have to lock up the beer .. or do we lock up Grammie??
Huh.
I'll just go without!
Eeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwww
LET'S PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fawnn's GONE! LOL!!!
Duh. You lock up Grammie WITH the beer!!!!
She's napping for Funkle'ng later!
