I volunteered at the Constitution Ball last Thursday night, so I couldn't attend the FReeper bash. But I wish I could have done both. It sounds like it was a blast.
Of that there can be no doubt. :)
Last night, I attended the Free Republic ball. Now this was a ball, literally. Held at the Washington Plaza hotel it was something to behold. There were something like 700 freepers and their friends in attendance and it was a great mix of food, fun and entertainment. We were treated to a video presentation of Free Republic activities, a few awards including one to Buckhead who was one of the first people to spot the irregularties in the Bush memos that Dan Rather was trying to pass off as genuine and a rousing performance by Capital Offense, with bass guitarist Mike Huckabee, who also happens to be the governor of Arkansas.
It was a great night and a whole lot more fun that the state ball from the night before. I hated to see it end and I can't wait until 2009.
