There are very very few movies (feature or doc) about the Hurtgen Forest. The reason is that it was slotted between Market Garden and the Bulge, both of which were more dramatic and more decisive. It’s like the fighting the US Army did in New Guinea....tough, bloody and for the most part, ignored.

Who was the freeper who killed himself five or six years ago? I think he was from Brooklyn.

The tags were “Blink” and “Marquee”, and supposedly they are commented out of the system so that we don’t have to see them ever again.
Though we did have one troll in particular who was given a link to DemUn in blinking colored text.
I think it was michealmicheal who was the recipient of that treatment.

My alltime least favorite Freeper was Fusion, who loved the thought of Muslims taking over the world, and who always ended his posts with “The forces of freedom are on the march. Europe trembles.”

To this day, the only Freeper I’ve ever wanted to punch.

I think that was RR or something like that. That happened back when I was updating the FReeper Wall.

After the first couple of times, I purposely avoided those threads (was using dial-up at the time). Odd, interesting, but with little relevance.

I had one! So did Cal. Mine sat the box for 6 months till I learned how to set it up, then it was Drudge and on to FReeperland till morning with no turning back.

The only thing I knew when I got my WebTV was Drudge and Yahoo.

I first typed "sex" into Yahoo and saw, indeed, that there was sex on the Internet.

Next I tried www.drudgereport.com and saw a link to something called 'Whitewater'.

That be here.

Sorry dude. I know it was a simple question, but that snowball got rolling down the wrong side of the mountain.
Take comfort in the fact that your thread pulled out a lot of old timers, some of whom I haven't seen in some time.

Free Republic took off because of malfeasance in the the Executive branch of the federal government, and a simple post shows that there are still a good number of the old guard who are engaged and still kicking.
The real pleasure would be another impeachment hearing and rally, lol.

Batjack - oh, yeah. Let’s just say that nothing that has happened to and with him since has been a complete surprise.

Digging into the blackhole I call a brain: Registered threatened to sue people for posting his images, then somebody threatened to sue him for using one of their images, he got little sympathy for it, opused, and zot.

Trappedinliberalhell.
He was married to KangarooJacqui.
She was barred from entry into the states for the funeral.
Kang got easily riled, and eventually was banned.

sneakypete left the form in March 2003. He was banned for a short time during the DITHF espisodes. He still post on other forums around the net as far as I know.

sneakypete's opus via another poster

Kang was a part of the Road Killed Beeber Association (small subsect of the Viking Kitties.. “We Pave Trolls!”)
As was nopardons.
What’s left of the Road Killed Beeber group comprises the Undead Threaders.

I do wonder how Kang is doing.
