[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

If we don’t get to 100% soon I will write an even more dreadful fundraising poem than at post 191.

If the ACLU comes, or PETA I will drive them away by reading Bible verses,
then continue cooking in my FReepish pot,
my fiendish plot
of bad rhyme, yet do no time.
Yea, I will parse without parsley
and do no thyme.

There will be weeping (willows) and whaling (vessels)
but we will achieve our goal.

[Fiddlstix]

There's a FReeper called Fiddl, ya know....
An his brain it works sorta slow.....
He cain't write no rhyme...
cuz it'd take too much time.....
an...This here freepathon is movin'.....
well....
nowhere nears fast 'nuff.

Now that there's a right bad poem.....
Doncha think?

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

Sir, we’re not worrrrrrrthy!

[Fiddlstix]

LOL! G'Nite All

[DoughtyOne]

I’ve not always contributed my fair share. At the present time I am able to pay more than I have in the past and I’m making up for lost time. Since I don’t deserve kudos for what I am paying now, because there have been many times when I haven’t paid, I asked for my donation to remain unlisted.

Supporting the forum is something I am compelled to do. Those who are also compelled to and do so, I thank you.

Join me if you can. This is where we come to discuss important issues of the day. I would like to continue to do that long into the future.

All the best folks...

[rlmorel]

Eeeehhh. I’ve only given a scrap of money...

YOU have given Free Republic!

[Rennes Templar]

Your fundraising poem
couldn’t be sweeter
especially when it ranks
nine of ten
on the exclusive
Freeper groan meter

[Molly Pitcher]

Good morning!

[bmwcyle]

Huge thanks go to you Jim, and all those who help administer this forum.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

Only nine out of ten?
After some introspection,
It driveth me mad:
I must seek perfection,
And waterboarding with rhyme,
(rhyme sub-sub-sublime),
I, Quixotic, seek those fine words,
That will cause yet more groans and a fiscal connection.
Yet wondereth I, as I massageth my verse:
Wouldn’t it be better for all if folks opened their purse?

[Lady Jag]

More hair?

[afnamvet]

LOL. Lotsa feathers flying @ 90mph.
