Operation Infinite FReep 8-23-02 in Fresno, CA

8/23/02

Tonight's FReep of the peaceniks in Fresno, CA was attended by eleven FReepers. I counted sixteen peaceniks on the other side of the street from us tonight. I think that when there are lots of them in attendance, the response we get from the motorists driving by is louder and more enthusiastic than usual. There were a few who flipped us off or gave us the thumbs down sign, but at times the honking was really unbelievable! Hundreds and hundreds of people honked to show support for our point of view on this, Fresno's busiest intersection.

FReepers who attended were:

• Jim, Chris, and Sheila Robinson
  
• JustAmy
  
• FriendAnn
  
• Mama_Bear
  
• Jkphoto
  
• Gracie1
  
• Ladyinred
  
• Chadsworth
  
• Mtngrl@vrwc

It was a pleasant and agreeable 90 degrees in Fresno today, so unusual for August. I hope this gorgeous weather continues through the rest of the summer.

After the peaceniks left at promptly 6:30 (as usual), we stayed another half an hour and then (almost) all of us went to DiCiccios for dinner and pleasant conversation. FReepers are wonderful people!

To all FReepers who weren't able to attend tonight, we missed you and hope you will join us next week. To those who were able to make it tonight, THANKS for coming! Your effort is appreciated!

As I recall Amy was saying to me....
..."Look, I have no cookies...give it a rest!" LOL!

LOL!!!

Great shots!

[ladyinred]

Yes, you were kind to me last night, and I appreciate it!
Someday I will really make my world famous brownies and make sure you get one! :)

[ladyinred]

You always look cute, and so happy, well except for that one sourpuss one....but we won't go into that! LOL! Just kidding of course. We should all have your sunny outlook on life!

Thanks for reposting the picture of JK with the big wigs! :) How fortunate he was to get to meet Speaker Hastert.

[ladyinred]

Oh gosh, gee, whiz!
I really do hate having pictures taken, always have, always will. I told you that the song, "You're so vain" was written about me! Me and Carlie Simon are real tight!(uh oh, I am not sure how to spell my best friend Carlie's name :) )

BTW: Did you notice how gorgeous your nails look in your pictures? Yes, I am sooo superficial!

Thank you. :-)

(But, not everyone likes my nails. A certain wolf prefers the "natural" look.) :-(

Yes, I am sooo superficial!

LOL! You are sooooo cute! :-)

A worthy Friday night I must say.

Bump.

Shoot, I get snide remarks about my nails. Left hand short, right hand long. Best of both worlds. Nails are not one of those really important things, anyway! Unless, of course, you break one. LOL!

LOL!

I'm probably going to get 'nail' posts for a week!

Fuzzy....next time keep your fuzzy little lips shut. LOL

Hi, Blue, nice seeing you. Broken nails and all. : )

[Mama_Bear]

Fuzzy....next time keep your fuzzy little lips shut. LOL

Hey, are you talkin' bout THESE fuzzy little lips??? Shut tight, they are. ;-)

[ST.LOUIE1]

They won't stay shut for long though.....

"She told us the peaceniks flip her off as she drives by and if she has to stop on their corner, they pound on her car or throw something at her."

I'm speechless...no I'm not. I'm not a big guy nor am I all that young anymore, but I couldn't let that go by. That is the line for me. The last real tussle I got into a few years back was over some trash giving a Marine a hard time at my local watering hole. We took him and his a&&hole buddy by surprise...ain't nothing like a firm grasp to the larynx to shut a punk up. Sorry for the violence talk, but this just infuriates me.

How can these people be so ignorant as to not realize that she is the one who protects their rights to be idiots? (shaking my head)

Thank you again, Fresno Patriots, you have my undying gratitude and respect for supporting our servicemembers.

[Snow Bunny]

Bump for the wonderful Fresno Freepers.

[A Navy Vet]

Please add me to your ping list. Thank you.
