Hey, I tried to warn them. There's a genuine Surgeon General approved warning label on the front page. FReeping can be addictive. Heh, heh.

Well in my case you didn't try hard enough! ;-)

Average time is 8 minutes?

By my reckoning there must be thousands of people visiting for 1/10 of a second to bring the average down.....

Funny, I don't see any liberal sites on there

Perhaps "pogo.com" is liberal.
Take a look at how many people goof-off there when they should be working.

TV is a big waster of time, a vast wasteland of meaningless programs. I do not own a TV, have not for many years.

Hypothetically, say if you did win a contest. Are you going to tell your children, "This is how a person gets ahead these days, win the lottery."?

The truth is, more people have a better chance of 'winning' at life from diligent, hard work than at winning a contest.
Besides, when one has to work for everything, one learns how to spend more wisely.
With contest winners, it's easy come, easy go.

According to JimRobs traffic page, we are doing the same amount of total user replies this March as the Flordia election crisis of 2000... (an all time record of 10,000 per day)

The word is spreading..

I first have to admit that I have a probem before I am addicted, right?

Timesink, thanks for this great find!

As John pointed out, the Compost, the LA Slimes, and I will throw in the NY Slimes and the other maggoted infested fish wraps are losing subscribers.

ABC is in so much trouble, that Pro Islamic Terrorist, Jennings, is being asked to take a huge pay cut. CNN is on its death bed as the tv satellite companies provide Foxnews. The AOL/TIME long knifed bean counters with the losses that AOL has had this year have to have their long knives out ready to cut up CNN and sell it to the highest bidder.

Then, the remainder of the left wing/maggot infested tv left wing mantras posing as news, CBS,NBC,MSNBC,CSPAN are also in the first stages of terminal self destruction.

Jim, thank you again for providing this great invention. We can come here (looks like a lot and for a long time from this thread) to find out what is really going on in this world.

Then, we react and change/confront the maggots like at the Klamath Basin and the PCing of the firemen raising the flag at the WTC.

To those who come to Free Republic, if you are not donating monthly to Free Republic, you should be. Remember there is never a free lunch for anyone. Cancel your fish wrap and send half of your monthly subscription savings to Free Republic. That is a double win for conservatives and a multiple loss for the maggot infest rat controlled fish wraps!

The truth is, more people have a better chance of 'winning' at life from diligent, hard work than at winning a contest.

And I do a damn good amount of that. I NEVER watch tv while I'm not doing something else (reading, paying bills, folding laundry, doing dishes, etc.) What I do is a mild diversion.

If I were to win, my kids would think it was pretty cool. But when they see that dad spent all Monday afternoon in the ER with chest pains, they also know how hard he works.

You're wasting more of my time than the other sites I visit.

I didn't know anyone was counting.

Net rating is not counting you - they are counting me - I represent all you guys and I am here about nine hours a day. They monitor me 24/7 recording every site I visit, that is how the statistics are gathered for the world.
