Yeah, the new signups don’t know what we’re talking about when we mention that stuff.
I recall the now obsolete “marquee” tag.
Bolded blinking italicised scrolling six point text, ugh.
Have you tried fishing with dynamite?
If it not have been for trading commodities, I would never have met the love of my life. My mentor was a conservative, oh, I hate myself for this, I voted for John McCain in the primary for President way back when. The friend told me to go to FreeRepublic. I did. Took me a week to get accepted into the family, but meantime, I was reading FR.
Met so many wonderful people!!! Then I met Cyber. My life has never been the same again. We married seven months after we met on FR. This is mushy, but I can’t imagine loving anyone more than I love Cyber.
I want to thank Jim, Sheila, Chris and John for all the help on FR in those days. Also would like to thank Lazamataz and Cyber for cleaning out our Word For The Day classroom after we had messed it up so badly with HTML that it couldn’t be read without a fire hose spraying it out. We definitly were noobies.
I love you, Cyber. Happy 15th FreeRepublic Anniversary!
Thank you. I love Georgio A. and Tard. Two of my most favorite characters!
That's yer anniversary present .. hope it fits, but save the receipt
Congratulations, Cyber!! You made it. No longer a noobie (well, maybe I shouldn’t go that far).
And congratulations to you and your lovely bride!!
Whoa! Anuther geezer!
98 was a GOOD year!!
Congrats!
My cancelled check is my receipt. But at least my telephone hardly rings anymore (thanks again, for the link to the Digitone!).
Cheers, FRiend !
Thanks! And a lot of people we knew back then (offline) swore we wouldn’t last six months....
I notice you’ve had a lot on your mind lately, Jim. Some great posts! There’s a reason you’re the boss....
Mine’s very unclever: “Incoming transmission!”
I know you like kitties, so here is one wishing you a most happy birthday

You’re never not a n00b as long as there are others with sign up dates older than yours. (Or is that “sign up dates before yours” )
Anyway, you get the idea! Welcome to FR n00b. Hehe
Cyber’s 15th year giving us trouble, help, I mean.
Hey UB! You still around? Where you at these days?
July 8th for me. (But I seem to remember a great reorganizing that made us all have to reregister way back then. Because I was on previous to that.)
And for those who are wondering, a noob is anyone with a sign on date later than yours.
(I kind of miss ASH Alerts. Kind of miss the Willie Green Happy ChooChoo threads too)
DONT FORGET TO TURN YOUR ITALIANS OFF!
DITHF alert!
Ash Alert!
