Good afternoon.
My name is Mike Kehoe. I am FReeper number 13,500 and I was born on October 23, 1998.
Like many FReepers, I found Jim Robinson's house through a link from Drudge. It was March 1998 and Jim's house had all kinds of problems. From the flame wars to the Whitehouse basement. From the Italians (html) which produced chaos in the Forum, to funding a website which was experiencing a BOOM in growth.
I thought at the time, I'm not signing up here to post, it is dangerous (along with death threats and lawsuits).
So along comes FR's March for Justice. These FReepers are attempting to help the impeachment of a sitting president. They are a serious bunch. Woohoo! I got to sign up...
In the last twenty years I have been to many Freeps (helped save the 2000 election), made many Friends and broke bread with some of the best people on the planet. The First lady and me have met at least four hundred FReepers over 20 years and many are still alive.
FR has been a force in our history. From dispatching lying journalists to primaring RINOs, we have made a difference in our nation's politics and culture.
I have enjoyed FR more than any other website on the internet. Thanks JimRob.
One more thing. Ever since I signed up, I have made it a point to donate to FR to keep the doors open. I believe it has been worth it.
May the Lord bless all FReepers and especially bless Jim, John and their families. Amen.
Hey that’s great, just passsed 18 years myself.

Now we finally have it all, House. Senate, Trump.
And still, need to keep it, and have purging to do.
Sadly over the years too many one liner trash talk posts have invaded FR in the process.
In March I'll be 21.

Well, I don't think I can beat this congrats 😉, but what a delight to see your post... and some oldies responding.
I am around the net as corsair9 and my start date is given as Nov 29, 1997, so perhaps I am FR #9... I may be one of the last original Bitter Clingers! 😊 ...and proud to be.
God bless you, JimRob! 🗽
Don Morgan was more famous for his Ashe attack alerts. The last time I heard of him he had a web site in the commie North West.
I’m class of ‘98 too. On my home page is my number—6985.
Bless you, JimRob for this wonderful FRee Republic !!
Beat you by ten days - loser ! :)
Congrats!
You’re the newbie! (snort)
Color me stuned !
Been a long 20 years but it looks like it’s about to pay off.
Well said and welcome to the 20 year club!!
Don Morgan ... WOW there’s a freeper name I haven’t seen in a very, very long time!
NOOB By the way how did you get your number? It used to be in the profile link and IIRC I’m like 52 or 53 but haven’t seen it in many years.
Thank you very much, Bob Ireland!! God bless you.
Thanks and likewise.
Actually, my born-on-date is October 27, not the 29th. So I am four days from my birthday!
I am a Free Republic Scorpio!
