What a FReep!!!!!!! YeeeeeeHaaaaaaw!!!!!!!
Todays FReep in Fort Collins, CO. was outrageous. We outnumbered the useful idiots 2 to 1 and really showed what patriotic Americans can do when their heart is in it. We counted at least 40 TROOP SUPPORTERS in our ranks compared to just 19 anti-everythings. As per usual we outclassed them again. SPECIAL THANKS to the Colorado Patriot Drum and Fife Corps who showed up in full force today, you guys were excellent! SPECIAL THANKS to the VFW members who also showed up in force today, you all look super in your hats!Great pictures coming your way....

FReeping is so much fun, as well as a chance to get the truth out. I'm so happy to see that you outnumbered the opposition. We in DC did that at the Vice President's mansion in November 2000 when we told Al Gore to get out of Cheney's House! It was exhiliarating and it was enervating. Keep up the great work in Colorado.
I love seeing the families at freeps -- the children are adorable.
Thanks for great pictures and a great report.
To: Angelwood
I will never forget you DC Freepers standing out there chanting, "Get out of Cheney's house!" It was one of the few things we had to smile about during those dark days after the election!
Just wanted to say thanks again for doing that! It was especially wonderful to know that Al and Tipsey heard you!!!!!!!
To: Trteamer
BTW: Love the sign, "What our enemy started, We will finish!" That might just have to end up on a certain California street corner! :-)

Can't wait to see your shirt next Friday, Amy. That was so thoughtful of them to sign and send it to you.
I have just visited all of this weekend's "Infinite FReep" threads. I will be posting this link each weekend here. These people deserve recognition for giving up their time on the weekends to go out and show support for our country and our military.
Please, Finest FRiends, if you have not yet visited these Infinite FReep threads, stop by and give them a pat on the back and a BUMP for their efforts.

Oops! Re: #44......I intended to post that "Infinite FReep" link on the "A Few of FR's Finest" thread, but it works here too.
Now I shall go to the Finest thread and post it there also. Guess I need to pay more attention to which thread I am on. LOL!

Sorry to hear about your signs. We had a similar incident with a Pres. Bush cut out. It just goes to show the maturity level your dealing with.

FANTASTIC FREEP! I have been missing being there the last two weekends. They have been productive however.
Here are a couple of shots from two weeks ago. ![](http://www.freedomnet.cnchost.com/tom/images/hunt/tomante.jpg)
This is my lovely wife and her first ever big game animal. ![](http://www.freedomnet.cnchost.com/tom/images/hunt/dorieante.jpg)
This past weekend we went up to Lusk, Wyoming and picked up another praire goat. As I was enjoying lunch on the windy plains on Saturday around noon I could have sworn I heard the faint sounds of the fife and drum corps.
I am going to try to make it this weekend as I am Jonesing for a freep.

This was my first FReep...and I'll BE BACK AGAIN. That is, on the next Saturday I have off. I am sorry I missed you. I was hoping that you would have been there a couple of weeks ago. I was really looking forward to meeting you. I will be there this week and off hunting again the following week. This time for a mule deer and an elk or two. Man, I love not paying for meat! I'm not doing too bad for a one-legged ol boy. I just thank God that I am able to provide for my family and enjoy the great outdoors.

My signs cost me $1.89 and 20 minutes to make and are strong as heck. The more I think about these two eco-criminals that stole them, the more it concerns me. I will be on the lookout for my sign lumber from now on.
These guys were way to old to do this as a prank, maybe the police would like to have a talk with them. Fort Collins last year had a case of "set the research animals free" animal rights terrorism, and remember the burning down of the Vail ski lodge? We already know they are criminals, so I will be on the lookout. I think I will bring my 12 power binoculars next week.

The topic of how to get the Fresno and Columbia VFW Posts to join in has been on my mind. I'll throw a couple of suggestions out there for you all:
Print up a flier for their bulletin board inviting each veteran personally to come on down.
Include pictures of our Colorado VFW rally and promote it as a SUPPORT OUR TROOPS RALLY.
"We are just a bunch of ordinary patriotic Americans that get together to support our troops".
Let them know that pictures are e-mailed to the troops and show them pictures of Just Amy's shirt!
Ask them to wear those good looking hats they have.
I firmly believe that at each VFW and American Legion Post that there has to be a couple of veterans that want to show support for our troops. The Fort Collins rally started just that way, a couple of veterans.
But whatever you do, don't promise them cookies!

But whatever you do, don't promise them cookies! Gosh, I thought the cookies from Mama_bear would be just the thing. All she has to do is prepare about 200 of them and keep JK out of the barrel on the way to the FReep! LOL
The ideas you presented were definitely worth trying and just might work. I have written to the State VFW asking for participation but no reply. Thanks TR for you assist! Keep Rolling!!!

BTW, chads, I have decided not to bring cookies next FRiday. Are you going to pout if I don't bring cookies? How about brownies instead? :-)
To: Trteamer; Mama_Bear; Jim Robinson; mtngrl@vrwc; gracie1; notpoliticallycorewrecked; senorita
Thanks for the suggestions. These sound like they may work; we should hit all the small towns ie: Caruthers, Selma, Reedley; Easton, etc.
Is there anyone who will be available to help?
Thanks for all your support, Colorado. You are an inspiration! We will keep working on getting the word out!
FORT COLLINS FReepers Rock!!!

Good job with the photos! I am so impressed with Colorado freepers! I always look forward to your reports. I love the Gore Lost quit whining sign! LOL! I have a big campaign button that says something like that too! It is hanging on the drapes in my front entrance at home! Makes my liberal friends crazy when they walk in and see it!
To: Trteamer
But whatever you do, don't promise them cookies! Can I promise them my famous brownies? It can't hurt since I never make them anyway!
Thanks for the suggestions, we will sure try them. Every week when I see your report I turn green with envy at your little band, and your fabulous turn out!
To: Trteamer
I've tried a similar tactic, but will try it this way next time. They'll eventually get tired of seeing me.
I will just keep going back.
To: bluesagewoman
I will just keep going back.Atta girl. That's why we love you. zip etal.
