HE DOG ATE MY AFTER-ACTION REPORT:
Excuses are like eyebrows — everyone's got some hairy ones that they can raise; so I won't bore you with why this report is late. It's for the Friday before last, 10/28. Another report will be up later this week from BillF for last Friday. 11/02. None last week, but you'll have two Walter Reed pings this week.

DC Chapter mega-ping.

[Albion Wilde]

OK, that should have been “THE DOG...”. Nothing worse than a botched joke, right, John Francois?

[Albion Wilde]

National readership ping! Sorry it's late, folks. Did you miss us?

Since there was no ping during last week, you'll have two this week — BillF's report for this past Friday will be posted later this week.

FReepmail me to be added to / deleted from this (usually) once-weekly ping list.

Hi, honey! Did it rain in Spain? (groan)

[notpoliticallycorewrecked]

I will be flying in from California to join all of you on November 30th.

I so can’t wait to participate in the Support the Troops rally at WR with the DC Freepers. It will be a huge honor to stand against the moonbats with all of you.

At this point I am going to fly in on Wednesday so that I will have two days to tour DC prior to my conference. I have asked the Fresno Freepers if they have anything that they would like to donate to those at Walter Reed or Besthesda. I will be willing to bring it with me.

[Albion Wilde]

Wonderful news!

GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE WHO STOOD OUT THERE IN THE RAIN TO SHOW SUPPORT FOR OUR TROOPS!

And, thanks to everyone who attends the Friday night Walter Reed Freeps.

All of you are such patriots....you make your fellow Americans so very proud and grateful to have people like you represent us.

Thanks, again and may God bless you all!

Did it rain in Spain?

About as much as it does in southern California. I've been so lucky!

Thanks Albion, always enjoy the reports and pictures!

Well.............

Here we sat waiting patiently for the AAR from week before last, wondering if all was well. Thought maybe the rain washed out the freep. Of course we should have known better. Through wind and rain, sleet and snow, Freepers go to keep their appointed rounds for the troops. So, you are forgiven if the dog ate your report. 30 lashes with a wet noodle for the dog though.

Great report Albion. Good writing, brave Freepers, miserable moonbats, dancing cabs. Thank you one and all.

Nice report, botched joke. But I got it!! Being a left handed Polock I can read whats not really there. :-))

Olney got 4 1/2 inches of rain over the several days of rain.

Olney got 4 1/2 inches of rain over the several days of rain.

The San Joaquin Valley had a storm last Monday evening that broke records. There were reports of 4 inches of rain in some areas, while others had sprinkles. I was in the area that recorded the 4 inches. I'm glad that we weren't scheduled for a Freep on Monday evening, it wouldn't have been pretty. I think that the weather problems that Fresno Freepers face have been our heat. We have been out in 106-107 degree heat to stand toe to toe against Peace Fresno. JKPhoto, one of our members has a picture to prove it.

I always look forward to your pings. Thank you for your efforts.

Sure did miss you! Looks like it was raining catz and dawgs.

I’ll never forget (or forgive) the guy that told me before the first gathering of Eagles (GOE1) that the Walter Reed freep (#100) was canceled because of the weather.

I so wanted to be there just once.
