ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FREEPERS HAVE BLOW-OUT PARTY

Orange County Freepers | April 13, 2002 | WillaJohns & Badjoe & Diotima

[WillaJohns]

Seenenuf gathered the troops and descended on Badjoe & Willa's house for a barbeque feast and Freep Fest. Attending were seenenuf, Badjoe, WillaJohns, Diotima, dalereed, SoAmerRepublican, NYCityGal, OC-Flyfish, Texican and Mrs. Texican, Ernest-at-the-Beach, Khorkris, VeggieTodd, LedZep75, Pam, a lurker, Dr. Liberty, and Kevin.

This was the first Orange County Chapter get-together in a year. We talked, we ate, we freeped, we talked some more, we made new friends, and decided we're going to do it again July 13. In the interim, we discussed becoming an activism chapter, talked about Simon's upcoming election and showing up at his Orange County appearance to support him, and Freeping Gray (Lights Out) Davis when he comes to Orange County.

All attending Freepers went home with collector's item March for Justice T-shirts, Badjoe's foldable FreeRepublic.com pocket beer can cozies, a copy of "The Mainspring of Human Progress," Free Republic bumperstickers, American flag bumperstickers, cigarette lighters and cigars [for all who wanted them].

Seenenuf is the new chapter leader and has taken the bull by the horns and is bound and determined to see to it that we have a successful rabblerousing chapter. Seenenuf's dog is almost famous, he was on TV during impeachment with his "Buddy is a Liar" T-shirt. She also filled up a couple petitions for Ward Connelly's California proposition to eliminate race checking on State matters.

All you Orange County Freepers and Lurkers missed a great party and a great bunch of patriots. Please mark your calendars for the next party, which will be held July 13 at Badjoe and WillaJohns's home. [Badjoe is threatening to put a contract out on any who don't show up next time.]

In the interim, before the next party (July 13, mark your calendars, did I already mention that?), we expect to be participating in a few quick freeps. If you are not on the Orange County Chapter roster, please freepmail seenenuf or email her at jbusch@fea.net.

[WillaJohns]

Thank you so much for being here and bringing your littlest freeper. I love that kid and so does Beauty. She was in dog heaven yesterday with all the excitement.... and FOOD. I read up above that you won't be able to make the next meeting ; - (

Hopefully we'll have a freeping opportunity or two in the interim that will fit in with your schedule. God bless you, oco-flyfish, and your beautiful family.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Bump to that. Let's keep our eyes open for an opportunity to freep Gray (Lights Out) Davis soon.

And the great state of California will be even greater when we ditch Davis. What a poor excuse for a man.

[janetgreen]

Calendar marked! I'll try to bring my closet FReeper husband, but the chances of that are nil to none... he always says he has to work, even if he doesn't. : )

[WillaJohns]

Love the pictures, just wish I knew how to post them. I thought I had it all figured out but it's not working : - (

[nycgal]

I'll try posting them today.

[WillaJohns]

Everyone was so friendly and it was great to meet all those wonderful right-thinking people.

Weren't they? And wasn't it? Thank you so much for participating. It warms my heart to hear you say you won't miss the next Freep Meet. I, too, was a bit trepidatious (is that a word?) but very quickly became impressed by the caliber of our neighboring freepers. Let's keep our radars up for a good freep opportunity in the near future. You'll be ammazed at how exhilerating they are.

[WillaJohns]

Joe, are you close by? If so, please mark your calendar for July 13 and freepmail seenenuf with your particulars. I'd love to meet you.

[WillaJohns]

I can't tell you how great it is to have met you and your lovely wife. You are now my computer guru hero (for anyone reading, ledzep75 fixed Badjoe's seemingly impossible-to-fix computer problem). God bless you for your generosity and kindness. We'll see you July 13..... or sooner if we find a good freeping opportunity.

[WillaJohns]

S.F. Bay Area FReepers need to have a house party soon!

I give my heartiest yes!

Maybe you could meet in one of your beautiful city's beautiful parks. Our meeting was very heartening and I highly recommend it.

[WillaJohns]

We will expect to see you July 13, so MARK YOUR CALENDAR! I can't wait to meet you. We'll notify you if any freeping opportunities come up in the meantime.

[oc-flyfish]

Email me the pics and I can post them.

[WillaJohns]

Such a beautiful day, such great food and a fantastic bunch of people. ALL Freepers in OC and area should definitely make the next meeting.

I ditto that! Thank you for coming. It was great to meet you and talk with you. Getting everyone together just emphasized for me that we really are not alone. See you July 13th (or sooner).

[WillaJohns]

I will try to make it to the July 13 shindig.

Oh happy day! That would be great!

[WillaJohns]

Ping me with time & place of the next party. I'm right here in OC.

You will be pinged! That would be great!

Seenenuf, you roger this?

Glad you had a successful meet, Willa. Sorry we couldn't be there, but we didn't get the word until the day before. FirstTimer said she really wanted to see you and joe. Myself, I just wanted the free beer...
