A few years ago we were trying to get enough monthlies so there was no need for the FAT’s. I had suggested to Jim on a couple occasions that he give a little “thank you” gift every year to the dollar a day donors. Not only would it be a good practice but each year the gift could become a collectible for those who keep FR on the net.

Anyway, Jim never seemed too interested so I told him that I personally wanted to give something to the donors. I was hoping he would see how popular and effective it was and maybe take it up as an annual effort.

Diotima and I got together with Gene (Seekingthetruth)and we decided on a coffee mug that Gene could personalize with screen names...pretty cool. We ran a little contest on a new graphic for FR which we also hoped Jim might incorporate into a new logo for FR.

Gene did it at cost, I picked up the tab and we sent out over 1000 of the mugs. Everyone loved them.

Now I remember it well. It was for dollar-a-day donors. What a great premium it was.

I always serve coffee or tea in it for any liberal friend who comes a'calling at the MinuteGal abode......and I wish I had more!

I'm so grateful to you, Bob J.....and Gene (Seeking the Truth) and Diotima, who I miss terribly on this board.

The mug does more than pleasure my conservative instincts, but it reminds of long-time freeper friends I had the honor of meeting personally over the years.

Here's mug in your eyes!
