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.

Nice.
Where can I find my FR Number? Congrats!!!
How do you know your FREEPer number?
"...FreeRepublic for twenty years..."
Newbe.
Seriously, congrats for sticking around.
Lots of changes in the last 20 years.
Happy Freeperversary. How do you know that you were #13,500? I used to be able to find that but I no longer know how to.
Congrats on your birthday!
Never forget 2004 and Buck head exposing the Dan Rather/CBS smear here at Free Republic of GW Bush’s National Guard service
I will join you in SIX days.
Does that mean you're a poor shot or just ran out of ammunition?
Welcome Newbie!!
I’ve been here for a long time, but I don’t know my Freer number, as you do.
How do I find that out..?
:/
And congratulations on starting your next twenty!
And to think I have been logged on all these years.
I still remember when there were maybe 20 or 30 threads on FR during the whole day.
And I remember when everyone was asked to re-log in and give a valid email address.
My actual join date is maybe 4 months before what it shows me as.
Happy Freepaversary, and many more.
Deep in the Hurtgren Forst (a yuge fraud), Quidam (another one), GreenEyedLady.
I remember all those characters.
I remember when Monica Lewinksy’s number was listed here, and people actually called her up..!
I remember the long thread when 9-11 was actually happening.
Beat you by a couple weeks.
Thank you very much, M Kehoe!! Your continuing participation, loyal support, unwavering faith and patriotism is greatly appreciated. Congratulations on your twenty years!!
