#6. To: Turtle (#4)
I drank the HTML fluid so I'm not allowed to leave. ______________________________________ Suspect all media / resist bad propaganda/Learn NLP everyday everyway ;) If you don't control your mind someone else will.
One of these day6s, an 18 wheeler will.... Just horrible.
I joined FR in about 2000. Jog my memory about the ads.
We took out full page ads in Washington Times against Clinton. Both were over ten grand.
I joined in late 1998. I remember the ad. It was George Washington with a tear in his eye. If I'm wrong, I'm sure someone will correct me. I may have donated to it, but won't swear to that.
I was in back then, but, I don't remember the ad...my bad.

On the contrary. The Buzzard clan has plans to make Turtle a part of us forever: And the entire 4um is welcome to join us in this act of culinary remembrance. Turtle Soup Ingredients 1 1/2 sticks butter Directions Turtle meat usually comes in 2 1/2-pound portions. In a large soup pot over medium to high heat, melt 1/2 stick butter. Add turtle meat and brown. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cook for about 18 to 20 minutes or until liquid is almost dry. Add onions, celery, garlic, and peppers, constantly stirring. Add thyme, oregano, and bay leaves and saute for about 22 minutes**. Add stock, bring to a boil, and simmer for 30 minutes. Skim any fat that comes to the top. While stock is simmering, make the roux. In a small saucepan, melt remaining butter over medium heat. Slowly add flour, a little at a time, constantly stirring with a wooden spoon. Be careful not to burn. After all of the flour has been added, cook until roux smells nutty, is pale in color, and has a consistency of wet sand, about 3 minutes. Set aside to let cool until soup is ready (roux should be cool when adding to hot soup). Using a whisk, stir the roux into the stock vigorously, adding a little at a time to prevent lumping. Simmer for about 25 minutes. Stir to prevent sticking on bottom. Add sherry and bring to a boil. Add hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer and skim any fat or foam that comes to top. Add lemon juice and tomatoes and return to a simmer. Add spinach and eggs, return to a simmer and adjust seasoning. **Cook's Note: Caramelizing vegetables and meats very will to get the dark color you are looking for. ***Cook's Note: This is like a stew, eaten as a main dish. This soup freezes well. Here is copy of first ad, the second was of the Indian crying. Second one we were short a thousand or so, The Times said dont worry we will publish it and they did. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2644890/posts
I was lurking there back then (under a different handle). Became active during the Buchanan wars. All of that was before Rimjob acquired the tech ability to ban people he did not like. He had to put up with us. In fact he did very little work or input on the ads etc etc. When he became net dictator most of us were thrown out. A good thing went in the toilet.
I started losing interest in FR when his brother, IIRC, began restricting the HTML commands we could post. It was a real free-for-all there for a while. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
By any chance, were you A+Bert? Okay, thanks for the link. I believe Registered created the George Washington one. Wow, that was so long ago. I got banned in 2004 but I still have fond memories of those times and the FReakers I met. Good people in general, played like pawns like I was. Thanks again.
Sir Lod... Thanks, can you find the second one of the indian????
The years have flashed by in the blinking of an eye, and so many of our friends are not with us any longer. I don't know if they are not able to join us for whatever reason(s), or just don't care to discuss the topics that engage us here today... “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
Too tough right now. Perhaps a more gifted searcher can locate it tonight. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
My demise began when I found out that Rim Job and his dirty dozen were conspiring in the background to destroy people they did not like. I started off by planting anti semetic remarks and then watching them in the background alert each other that I was there and for them to gather and plow me under. Early on I got into their little private cabal behind the scenes, without them knowing I was there. Then I knew, we had been sold out. It started by one of them posting on FR what he had intended to post in private to the cabal. From there it was easy. One of the stalwarts threatened to come here, bash my brains in.
Damn! They just banned me. I feel cheated... “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
Well, I remember so many things from back then, at this date mostly positive. My mind scrubs bad times out of my memory banks. I went along and got along there. Then Bush/Cheney opened my eyes to the truth. I went to the FReaker Inaugural Ball for Dumbya and have a souvenir or two to show for it. It was a fun time and I try not to focus on the negative.
I may have met him. I probably did. I'd name a few names, but I'd have to dig deep into my memory banks. It's not worth it.
Interesting. Seems like that kind of activism was what FR was founded on until it turned into an income stream for the owner.
My banning from FR. Oddly enough it was not for anything I had done on FR.
I arrived in 05 with a bang and a whisper... I would eventually cool my jets and settle in.

Indeed it was. When Rimjob obtained ability to ban people, he was like a madman drunk with power. It was an amazing transformation. He would go orgasmic with delight in booting posters. Meanwhile, in the background, he had been bought and paid for. We were being used and didnt know it.
Thanks for posting something that refreshed olde memories. I use to post this to stir the pot after Rimjob sold out.... "I am tired of the daily flying of the anti-semetic flag on FR". I would post that and out would come Rimjobs little doobies looking for blood. That SOB and his doobies were operating a paid political machine in the background, on the backs of innocent posters. If I recall, Howlin was a mad woman from down south somewhere and she ended up getting canned. Cannot recall for sure.
A forerunner to the current MO of the NSA -- Ve know vhere you vere and vhat you said .... Confess, confess!!!
"Have Brain, Will Travel
Howling, I could have gone the rest of my life without ever reading that name. It took me a while to see what was going on with FR. Local guy and I formed a chapter of FR here. This was back when there was an active chapter in DC. Our first real project was a property rights protest. We were organizing a rally here in California to start off a traveling protest that would end in Florida were vets were having their property stolen. Our posts were time sensitive so like other chapters we posted our threads in breaking news. Someone kept taking them down. My co-leader and I couldn't get an answer as to why. My co-leader got banned for asking. We finally found out through rumor. Jeb Bush was up for re-election that year and he had supported the property theft. JR was afraid that if our protest grew legs it would hurt his re-election. Then at a later date they protected a political operative who was pushing for the election of Arnold. People supporting McClintock were getting banned, including me, while the lackey was protected. It was so much bullshit.
Vicious
Dear FRiends, Time is running short for our FReepathon. We're nearing the end of the second month and we still have $17k to go. We need to wrap this up soon. If you enjoy using FR and find it worthwhile and would like to help keep it going, please consider making your donation today. Thank you very much!! “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
they used to take 8 days start to finish. Then when things slowed down there would be a random outage to get those funds flowing again. And very little of the money actually goes to forum upkeep.

Perfect analogy! (Send in those blank checks, the Lord will tell me how much you need to donate.) “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos.

RimJob is a weak, petty man. When we were doing the newspaper ads, it occurred to me, that he was being forced into the background, intellectually he had nothing to add. I suspect he thought others would take his personal sandbox away.
Perfect. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

I assume you are using the term man loosely.
Indeed... Many years ago, before he could strike out at people by banning them, I put him in the cross hairs, to see if he had a fear factor, of personal truth. Rimjob and a gaggle of his sycophants were waxing hot about people that took ANY government handout in any form. They were a self righteous group if ever there was one. Patting each other on the back because they were conservative stalwarts. Rimjob was leading them like a pack of hounds, hot on the trail of the dastardly fox. I politely chimed in with this, "There are few Americans that have not taken of government handouts". The toadies immediately jumped on my case, on and on, the language would curl a sailors hair. Knowing Rimjob had once been in the military, I set the trap. Rimjob knew who I was aiming for. I offered to prove there was no one present that had NOT taken Federal handouts, one way or the other, all they had to do was answer a few questions. Before anyone could ante up, Rimjob started spilling his guts about a time that he and his wife had fallen on hard times, and he being a navy veteran, had been "forced" onto a Federal dole. He laid it all out. The toadies had urgent business to tend to, either they left or went mute. For once Rimjob told the truth.
hahahahaha. I remember all that though I wasn't intimately involved. My husband was an active poster on FR until he got into it with some Houston, Texas a$$hole (his moniker escapes me now) threatened him with same. Bill offered to meet him and then, of course, HTa backed off. Bill also got into it with Robinson. He quit posting there and on any forum after that. To question is to value the ideal of truth more highly than the loyalties to nation, religion, race, or ideology.
that made me LOL. To question is to value the ideal of truth more highly than the loyalties to nation, religion, race, or ideology.
