As you can see from some of our sea-farin’ Freepers, you gotta know the ropes.

He told us. He wouldn’t lie, he’s a Senator. He was also in Cambodia on Christmas, was hand in hand with Algore in inventing the internet, was the model for Goofy in Disneyland, Love story was not written by him but could have been, and he secretly wishes he was a seagull.

This is an act of piracy and should be treated as such. If you fly the colors and board other people’s property I call that an act of piracy.
