Get this! We already have 52 Donations of $100 or more and already have 21 New monthly Donors including 4 New $1-A-Day (or more) Donors! (Thank you so much DJMacWoW and TheOldLady for keeping the respective counts) And, at the pace we're going, we're averaging $2,000 per day in your awesome, generous donations! Thank you ALL very much!!!!
Now, about the $100 Donations and more! Every quarter, FReeper I_be_tc, challenges 300 FReepers to match her $100 donation. This Quarter, I kicked-off I_be_tc's $100 challenge to get things started, so please join me, if you possible can!
Please know, that $100. was a big stretch for me, but I want to try to get this FReepathon done quickly for Jim's sake; and I wanted you all to know that I'm not just asking you all to donate a little extra this time, I'm also donating more than my Monthly, as are the majority of Jim's FReepathon Team.
If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note (in Jim's temporary absence) and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club Roster! And, please don't be shy about adding your name. We know you're humble and maybe even shy, but seeing your names on the Roster often times inspires others to join you!
Our New Monthly Donor Campaign is also rocking! We conduct this campaign because reliable Monthly Donations are an ideal way to support Free Republic. We already have 5 Very Generous FReeper Sponsors, Tijeras_Slim, upchuck, "somebody", Tijeras_Slim again, and Owen Kellogg for this Quarter's NMD Campaign!
All 5 FReeper Sponsors are donating $10.00 for each New Monthly Donor who signs up, so please consider Donating Monthly, if you can reliably do so! $15 a month is 50 cents a day. Please ask yourselves, "what is FR worth to you?" that you can reliably contribute every month?
Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 or more, it all helps keep FR alive and is always sincerely and truly appreciated!!
In closing, I know, and we all know, that times are tough, unconscionably tough, but for Jim's sake, I'm asking you all to please dig deep and to please dig deep right away or as soon as you possibly can, so that Jim can have some peace of mind during his healing and recovery processes. You all know he wants to be here with us, and he is, whenever he's able.
In Jim's temporary absence, Just Amy, (whom you all know and adore) is posting the incoming. She is Jim's life-long, close friend and also his business partner and FR's bookkeeper. So please, let's get keep those donations coming in!
We Can Do This, provided We ALL pitch in right away.
Please always remember, $25 keeps FR ALIVE!!

If I need too. He is also a trainer for the Ravens and Orioles. Sports Medicine guy.
Ahhhhhhhh. My doctor never gave me anything useful except lidoderm patches and they just took the edge off.
Sounds like he’s competent!
Right.
Very much so. I use him for the lower back, arms and legs. I eventually needed surgery on my neck so I won’t let him go there anymore and he wouldn’t anyway. My neck surgery was put off for years due to his treatments.
My cartilage is a degenerate like the rest of me. LOL!
I didn’t get or ask for that med. It was prescribed for me by the orthopedic surgeon after my MRI’s, when it was determined I had to be in such excruciating pain. Like, duh.
Dang, y’all talking like some old geezers tonight :)
It’s great that you found someone that good! Around here good doctors are 2 hours away.
Nah, just a crotchety old fart. Some folks complain about the RX making them drowzy. I think that means that the RX is not really needed. If it hurts bad enough the RX will just stop or subdue the pain.
Sissies. LOL!
My doctor argued with me for 2 years about where my pain was. She kept saying that it wouldn’t hurt where I said it did according to my MRI. After 2 years of that crap she looked at me one day and said “You have a curvature TOO?? I never went back.
Yes. Old geezers usually sound like old geezers. lol
Well, then you've come to the right place, Cajun!
I don’t even want to think about that! LOL
Hadn’t donated in a while. Money very tight. But couldn’t abandon Jim. :) My pittance of support.
Good night, everyone. Pleasant dreams and restful sleep to you all. May God bless you and yours.
