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
And another $20 in from California!!
Thank you California!!
This AFTERNOON, on the radio "Just off of AP...breaking news"...I thought...huh...you guys know NUTHIN'!!!!
That happens just about every day. LOL! The radio and tv media are behind on most things.
I am way way behind, don't think I can catch up tonight.
Had to go downtown to watch a friend's band play --- they really rocked tonight --- the best I've seen them do yet. I can hardly wait for them to be famous so my pictures of them will be worth something. *L*
Did you see my post (seems like weeks ago now) that my niece won a trip to Marlboro's Race Car Driving School!? ;)
Oh glockie.............................
Guess what?
That's real nice, radu...and I join in that prayer!!!
Your Welcome
I'll be back in a bit ... need to beat the computer again .. grrrrr
NO! I missed that post! EGADS!! Is she gonna do it?!!
I love to watch others race around the tracks but I don't think I'd ever have the guts to do it myself. LOL! My hubby's tried several times to talk me into it but no success.
Brad's Gramma,Hi most beautiful,this might be my last night out:) as I go away but you were there for me when it really got hard.You stayed with me too and let me get it out,soo hard but you and all were there.
Whatcha mean, fatima?
I would LOVE to get in a race car and go a few laps!!
Don'cha just hate it when that happens? I've had CRS for so long, I've quit sweating it. *giggle*
This getting old thing....I don't know, radu. It's NOT what it's hyped up to be.
Ok, you and Hubby Dear run the laps and I'll watch from the safety of the stands. LOL!
