The stupid insipid ostrich that pops its head into every thread on behalf of fundraising.

[OKSooner]

That's cute. Please forward my request to the gentleman who runs credit card billing to have my monthly contribution stopped. He knows who I am and has my contact information.

I had a dog named magic.

I had a dog that performed magic. Couldn't hold the cards well, though.

That is an ostrich? LOL! For some reason I thought it was a turkey! The things I learn here on FR.

Please don't be mad. While we who are working the fundraiser are trying to be sensitive to everyone, there's no pleasing everyone all the time. As soon as we reach our goal we will go away. Promise! (We're already at 40 percent so it won't be long.)

Thank you for your monthly support. It is really appreciated.

You can configure your web browser (Internet Explorer, perhaps?) to not display images (GIF, JPG, BMP and more) if the donation chick is so OFFENSIVE to you.




For Internet Explorer, go to TOOLS --> Internet Options --> Advanced tab --> Multimedia/"Show pictures". Just unclick "Show pictures" and you're set!

Who asked you?

Paraphrasing JR's post:

Y'know, I've heard it all. Free Republic could've been a great place to liberate the country if only Jim would keep out the OSTRICHES. FRee Republic could've been a great place to help elect more Republicans if Jim would only keep out the CROWS. Free Republic could've been a great place to take back America if Jim would've kept out those who would let America be overrun by MACAWS. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would keep out the BLACKBIRDS. Free Republic would've been a great place if Jim would quit banning the PARAKEETS. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would've allowed complete freedom for us to discuss the Audubon Society conspiracy to rule the world. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would keep out the Birdwatcher fruit cakes. Free Republic would've been a great place if Jim would only keep out those who bash Roger Tory Peterson. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would stop the insults and flamewars. I won't refer any more of my friends to FR because Jim allows all kinds of birds to post here and I'm embarrassed. Free Republic could've been a contender if Jim would only get rid of the CARDINALS..."

Hey, that's my artwork!

I was sure it was Wimom's. Obviously God has created artists with different feathers, some good some bad. : )

[sweetliberty]

LOL! You have such a "delicate" way of putting things. I'm surprised you haven't told them "youcanbitemyass."

[.38sw]

FOFL! oh, wait, this is supposed to be serious. I think I'll have a little cheese to go with the whine.

[erswts]

of course they cannot hold the cards - that is why they read minds

[codebreaker]

LOL! Ostriches of the world unite..

[Clara Lou]

that's my artwork"
And excellent artwork it is. I say "Keep the bird!!" (And, yes, I have donated for those who wonder.)

[Carolina]

You're plume crazy.
