Thanks, doctor. I always wanted to know what "Bravo Zulu" meant, actually! You guys use the term all the time.

Wow, you were amazing on the bullhorn. You and Tgsltakoma. And Sauropod, LOL, though of course he doesn't use a bullhorn, just those Sesame Street hats! ;)

[Taxman]

Good pics of goofy people? If it were not so late, I might try to improve on that! They were some goofy people marching against America, weren't they?

Your FReeper and MOVEOUT pics were good pics of good people.

[FreeTheHostages]

I understand. My heart goes out to you with your kids "hopeleesly liberal:" that must be hard on you!! I love my sister even though she is basically very naive.

Perhaps your kids will come around still. Robert Frost said, "I was never too liberal in my youth, lest I be too conservative in my old age."

[FreeTheHostages]

But Mama_Bear, did you see the cartoon about you losing the trial to Papa_Bear? LOL -- don't leave before telling us whether you'll be appealing!

[FreeTheHostages]

Oops, LOL, you saw the cartoon. Note to self: read backwards in the thread from where you last left off, you silly newbie.

LOL...me flirting???? It's been so long since I flirted with anyone I don't EVEN remember what its purpose is. No, there's another freeper who has tax in his name I think. Hey, I don't know how you guys stood that cold for so long. Electric socks should be in order...BIG TIME. I'm doing fine. Six of us lady freepers met near Columbus, Oh yesterday for lunch. It was a blast. My husband looked at the pictures we posted last night and mumbled: "It's downright dangerous to have that many conservative women together in one place."

[FreeTheHostages]

Absolutely! There has been a huge mistake! That wasn't MY porridge. Everyone knows I don't cook! LOL!!

High and over the wall! Applause, applause.

It's very hard for me to have liberal children. They are both anti-religion too and you can imagine how much that hurts me. They both came for Christmas and we almost made it through without an argument. But they stayed one day too long. By the time they left, I was glad to see them go, and that is so sad.

[FreeTheHostages]

You going to NYC on 2/15 too! Wow, lots of people going!

[FreeTheHostages]

There are times when I have to curtail my time on FR.

Yup. That's just true. That's just taking care of yourself, which is the most important thing you can do for all of us, Lori! I have a FReeper friend who recently has become IMHO too "lost" in cyberspace and posting here, and it's scaring me. Some times you have to step back.

[WVNan]

Yes, a break from time to time is in order. I think I took a couple of days off last week or during the week-end. I have more time at the moment because of the cold weather. Not too much going on in my field when it's so cold. People are pretty much hibernating. I do have to go to Marietta tomorrow for a funeral. I'm supposed to be retired, but I'm not really. I have tried to cut back as much as I can to take care of hubby.

[FreeTheHostages]

Why THANKS! This is a very thoughtful and cogent analysis. I was hoping some of my DC Chapter friends might share their first hand thoughts too. THANKS.

[FreeTheHostages]

"You really didn't want to know all about my weather, did you? LOL! Couldn't resist"

That's the naval aviator in you!

[FreeTheHostages]

You were great out there. Good freeping with you, L_Von.

[FreeTheHostages]

Hey! Isn't that you on Free Republic's front page with Curtis Sliwa!! LOL, aren't we high and might now. You still talking to the "little" people like me? (Plays on the word "little" are not encouraged in this context. :)

[The Thin Man]

LOL -- Sauropod, yes, that was tongue-in-cheek

Hey.....let's not be so fast. You gotta remember I was deeply pained by Billie's misrepresentation of my words. :)

[FreeTheHostages]

Ahhhh, there you are. And you think I'm not up at 11:55 PM EST to guard my thread from the likes of you!

I challenge you to a duel of wits!!

[FreeTheHostages]

lol, "slightly bruised" oh man, I give up. You're way out of my league.

[FreeTheHostages]

busy though you are, some day you will wish to read The Thin Man's mischievous two posts heretofore

Has anyone ever done a write-up of The Thin Man? Or do we tend to just ignore his criminal sort?
