5,000 Freepers who care are needed now!

Donate to Free Republic ^ | 30 November 2001 | Grampa Dave

[Grampa Dave]

We need the stewardship of 5,000 Free Republic members to insure the continuation of the Free Republic Life Form!

Jim Robinson said in yesterday's post: "My projections are that our regular monthly expenses for next year will be running in the neighborhood of $22,000 per month, or approximately $264,000 total for the year. This means we will need to raise approximately $66,000 per quarter."

If 5,000 Free Republic members who believe in paying their own way and that no free lunch ever exists, pledge $5/month. Jim's goals and needs will be quickly surpassed!

5,000 good stewards of Free Republic pledging $5/month will total $75,000 per quarter. That would allow Jim/John a little breathing room!

Many of us donate more per month than that. So please don't reduce your donation. We just need 5,000 regular pledgers to make things easier for Jim.

Are there 5,000 good Stewards out there who can afford $5/month to keep alive the Free Republic Life Form?

One way to afford this is to cancel your subscription to your left wing fish wrap or bird cage liner. Donate half of that monthly cost to your favorite charity and the rest to Free Republic. If you do this, you remove your money from the enemies of America and invest it with the friends of America, Free Republic! That would be a double winner for America!

Become one of the 5,000 Freepers who believe that there is no Free Republic lunch and that only parasites want something for free! Sign up for $5/month on a monthly auto payment plan!

Bump for Laza-Math-taz

[mombonn]

I plan to up my monthly by $25 per month as soon as the "official" fundraiser begins. I do want to make sure that MI gets credit. ;-)

[Miss Marple]

Uh, Laz, in my culture there are 5 nickels in a quarter. (Of course, this was pre-Greenspan, so maybe things have changed.)

[Ragin1]

I've finally donated on an automatic monthly basis. I've bitched and moaned and nitpicked about the things that have irked me on FreeRepublic.

Well, last nite I came to a decision. Is FreeRepublic worth a contribution?

Like I told Jim last nite, I've learned more in the last 3 yrs, than I could have ever bought at any university.

Yes, its worth every penny I can give it.

Monthly donor wishing Laz would repost his "History of FR"

PS. I wish I could donate $25,000 per month. And if wishes were wings ....

[AStack75]

5 dollars * 5000 freepers * 3 quarters DIVIDED BY 4 NICKELS IN A QUARTER = 18,750 nickels!!! FAR below JimRobs needs!

Four nickels in a quarter?

[Lazamataz]

Uh, Laz, in my culture there are 5 nickels in a quarter.

(Hands on hips) What, you don't believe in multiculturism??? Besides, missy: I had the right intent, therefore the results are not important.

And thusly it is, in The Liberal Way.

[Revolting cat!]

In my culture, there are two sides to a quarter.

Well, in my counterculture there are for people in a quartet, so there! (I'm still a bit confused though when a quartet is called something like Dave Brubeck Quartet. Does that mean Dave Brubeck and four others, or Dave Brubeck and three others?)

Monthly donor wishing Laz would repost his "History of FR"

I'll not only do it, I'll expand on it.

[Reagan's_Mom]

Best $15 I spend a month.

[null and void]

LOL!

[MassExodus]

Oh Yeah ?

Well in MY culture there are 4 Pinters to 1 Quarter.

Uugh ...

[Lazamataz]

Four nickels in a quarter?

Four nickels in a dime bag.
Four dime bags in a lid.
Four lids in a pound.
Four pounds in a kilo.
Four kilos in a brick.
Four bricks in a bale.
Four bales in a ton.

I know all this drug culture stuff, too. I'm multicultural.

Reagan's Mom posted, "Best $15 I spend a month.

Right on! Where else can you have so much fun, learn so much and be a PIA to left wingers for only $15/month?

[Aggie Mama]

Well, in my husband's culture, there are 12 or is it 18?minutes in a quarter. I guess it depends what game is on.
