“Do not post to me”

We've received many requests from freepers requesting that other freepers not post to them. There are several problems with this.

1. It's impossible for us to enforce.
2. We don't have the time to enforce these requests.
3. We don't have the software to keep track of these requests.
4. Thick skin helps.
5. Ignore the poster, if you don't reply, they won't reply.

Free Republic does not need a bozo filter, bozo filters are for wimps.

Final note: Trolls, troublemakers, disruptors, forum pests, malcontents, RINOs, liberals, stalkers, et al, would continue posting to (harassing) someone after being asked to stop. Conservative FReepers would not.

LOL!

[sionnsar]

Yup.

Surprised I got the first of the morning.

WAKE UP, EVERYBODY!

WAKE UP!!!

RISE AND SHINE!

[sionnsar]

Aw, do I hafta?

Lately I’ve been popping awake at 5am on the dot. No alarm, nothing. Just eyes open and I’m awake. I’m trying to shift my bed time earlier, so I can still get some good zzzzzs, but having been a late nighter my whole life is making this difficult.

Plus, start of a new school year, so we’re trying to lead by example. I mean, we want to go to bed earlier, but always seem to find any excuse not to.

And yes, you hafta get up....holiday weekend or not. As my Grandpa always said, you can’t get that time back.

Actually been up for hours. But am working on other projects. Am trying to find a photo of a priest with his arms raised (in the “sursum corda” position) but can’t find anything useful. Argh. Now I’m digging back into the huge CorelDraw 7 collection for something (and if it’s there, I hope it will run in the Wine emulator so I can get at the images).

I’m switching back and forth between computers...programming a part on my hot rod, then back over to this box whilst it is computing and rendering.

VERY close! He just needs to be facing the other way. Unfortunately, all I've found of those have him behind the altar facing the congregation, not in front of it.

But hmmm... with a bit of photoshopping I might be able to use this. Thanks!

[sionnsar]

Interesting! That site was one of the first I visited...

Yes, like that. Gosh, looks like Anglican high-church from earlier in the 20th century.

Going to be hard to turn that one into line-art though.

[sionnsar]

Ha. I hadn’t even thought to look in Project Canterbury. You’re good!

[rottndog]

The wonders of Google.

I must be using the wrong search terms or type. But this would be almost perfect:

A little more modern...

LOL — same result!

Going to try working on that one.
