JimRob, me personally, I would wither up and DIE if I lost Free Republic... I don't know what it says about me but some of my best buds are right here on FR...
To all my FRiends:
FRiend,
When you are sad,.........I will get you drunk and help you plot revenge against the sorry b@st@rd who made you sad.
When you are blue, ...I'll try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
When you smile, ...I'll know you finally got laid.
When you are scared, ...I will rag you about it every chance I get.
When you are worried, ...I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be and to quit whining.
When you are confused, ...I will use little words to explain it to your dumb a$$.
When you are sick, ...stay away from me until you're well again. I don't want whatever you have.
When you fall, ...I will point and laugh at your clumsy a$$.
This is my oath, ...I pledge 'till the end.
Why you may ask?
Because you're my FRiend!
