Quinn and Rose are off the air, (temporarily, I hope!) Gone, but DEFINITELY not forgotten! Meanwhile, our friendly group of dedicated FReeper Q&R fans will meet in our usual spot - same time, same station - as we always have! So grab your coffee - or whatever you choose to start your day - and drop in for some political chit-chat, or just to shoot the breeze! We are all coming from - or going to - work, but we all stop in to say ‘hi!’ Feel free to join us!

Good Monday morning FRiends. Another Monday, and the sad news about the passing of our fellow freeper and true servant of the people, Past Your Eyes. RIP Lester. My gosh, how sad.
Good morning.
Even though it was known PYE was sick it was still quite a shock.
RIP.
Nice weather here over the weekend but it rained for the Daytona 500.
Ruined the race for me. We didn’t even eat the wings, rib and beans we had planned.
At least another milestone of the year has passed and Spring is that muvh closer.
I’m having a shower for DIL on Saturday. I’m not good at this. I had one baby shower for my sister 20 years ago. I’ve got guests coming from eastern Pa and NE Pa. I hope the weather holds.
I’ll be a grandma in approximately 4 weeks!
good morning....
Eternal peace for PYE...and condolences for his family. He’ll be missed.
Hearing birdies this am..maybe they know something the wx goes do t know...but Bastardi is saying polar vortex coming back to us this week (and some snow too )
Wonder what news travesties this week will bring from Dear Leader.
AWESOME!
You will be the best grandma/nana/mimi ever!!! Your Baby Shower will be fun:) such an exciting time! Can’t wait to see a photo of BabySneakers:) !!!
Woo-hoo! Will you be going to the hospital?
IIRC Saturday is supposed to be ok except for being cold. Of course thst could and probably will change.
Vindication is sweet. I have been warning my co workers about the increasing coyote problem and they scoffed. So today Greentree boro has posted a detailed warning on their website. Printed it out and showed it around. The co workers are shocked!
I kind of like the sound of ‘nana’, but that’s subject to change! lol! And YES! I’ll be at the hospital. My boss’s daughter just had a baby several weeks ago, and he was out of the office as soon as he heard she was at the hospital. He already knows I will be GONE as soon as I get word about DIL! LOL! Mr S and I will both take off that day!
P6, I rememaber you telling us about the coyote! Good! Vindication is, indeed, sweet!
Oh geez, time to get dressed and out the door! I’ll check in later!
Morning, sneakers. How exciting that you’re so close to grandmotherhood! You’d better get an expanded wallet for all those baby photos you’ll be carrying around.
I’m so sorry to hear about PYE. And a baby on the way - something semi-sweet about that - the circle of life, so to speak.
I’m going to Delaware at the end of the week (driving) - to help my sister. My brother in law has to go to Atlanta for cancer treatment. I’m going to watch the kids for a week. It will be a nice vacation with them. I hope the snow holds off......eek.
i apologize for not keeping up, but did any of you see this on their wiki page...”They were fired as part of the FCC push called “localism””
i suspected it mighta run deeper, rooted at the heart of sinister government.
RIP Lester
wiki states they were fired resultant of the FCCs “localism” policy, from david horowitz’s discoverthenetworks website, ...
“the left realizes that any effort to resurrect the Fairness Doctrine would be extremely controversial and could be challenged as a violation of the First Amendment. Thus many leftists, rather than openly pursue a new Fairness Doctrine, now seek to achieve the same basic outcome by exploiting a vague FCC rule called “localism.” Localism regulations nebulously stipulate that broadcast stations, in order to maintain their licenses, must “serve the interests” of the communities in their respective listening areas. But these regulations do not recognize audience size or listener loyalty as valid barometers of the degree to which such interests are in fact being served.”
Thanks S Spade! I’ve heard of it before!
Rose sent a group e-mail.
In case yunz didn’t get it, here it is:

sneakers, i don’t keep facebook/twitter accts...if you think it’ll clear up anything can you summarize aforementioned group email, have there been any guesstimates as to when quinn will return (the wiki page infers firing was aimed at quinn). thanks, sam
