5,000 Freepers who care are needed now!

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!

A man and his wife are awakened at 3 o'clock in the morning by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
 
Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the morning!" He slams the door and returns to bed.
 
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
 
Just some drunk guy asking for a push, he answers.
 
"Did you help him?" she asks.
 
"No, I did not, it is 3 o'clock in the morning and it is pouring out here!"
 
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!"
 
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pouring rain. He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"

"Yes" comes back the answer.
 
"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.
 
"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.
 
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
 
"Over here on the swing!" replies the drunk.

Having a bad day????


In a hospital's Intensive Care Unit, patients always died in the same bed,
on Sunday morning, at about 11:00 a.m., regardless of their medical
condition.

This puzzled the doctors and some even thought it had something to do with
the supernatural.  No one could solve the mystery as to why the deaths
occurred around 11:00 a.m. on; Sunday, so a worldwide team of experts was
assembled to investigate the cause of the incidents.

The next Sunday morning, a few minutes before 11:00 a.m., all of the doctors
and nurses nervously waited outside the ward to see for themselves what the
terrible phenomenon was all about.  Some were holding wooden crosses, prayer
books, and other holy objects to ward off the evil spirits.

Just when the clock struck 11:00, Pookie Johnson, the part-time Sunday
sweeper, entered the ward and unplugged the life support system so he could
use the vacuum cleaner.


Having a Bad Day????


The average  cost  of  rehabilitating  a  seal  after  the  Exxon  Valdez
Oil spill  in  Alaska  was  $80,000.00.   At  a  special  ceremony,  two  of
the most  expensively  saved  animals  were being  released  back  into  the
wild amid  cheers  and  applause  from  onlookers.

A minute  later,  in  full  view,  a  killer  whale  ate  them both.


Still think  you  are  having  a  Bad  Day????


A woman  came  home  to  find  her  husband  in  the kitchen  shaking
frantically,  almost  in  a  dancing  frenzy,  with  some  kind  of  wire
running  from  his  waist  towards  the  electric  kettle.   Intending  to
jolt  him  away  from  the  deadly  current,  she  whacked  him  with  a
handy plank  of  wood,  breaking  his  arm  in  two  places.   Up  to  that
moment, he  had  been  happily  listening  to  his  Walkman.


STILL think  you're  having Bad  Day????


Two animal  rights  defenders  were  protesting  the  cruelty  of  sending
pigs to  a  slaughterhouse  in  Bonn,  Germany.   Suddenly,  all  two
thousand pigs  broke  loose  and  escaped  through  a  broken  fence,
stampeding madly.

The two  helpless  protesters  were  trampled  to  death.


What?? STILL  having  a  Bad  Day????


Iraqi terrorist Khay  Rahnajet  didn't  pay  enough  postage  on  a  letter
bomb. It  came  back  with  "Return  to  Sender"  stamped  on  it.
Forgetting  it was  the  bomb,  he  opened  it  and  was  blown  to bits.


There now,  feeling  better????
