Grassroots beginning to the Free State Party

And let's not forget Zappa 10:77
"Some people... some people like cupcakes exclusively, while myself, I say
There is naught nor ought there be nothing so exalted on the face of gods grey
Earth as that prince of foods... the muffin!"

Statement of Intent

I hereby state my solemn intent to move to the state of New Hampshire. Once there, I will exert the fullest practical effort toward the creation of a society in which the maximum role of civil government is the protection of life, liberty, and property.

Does this mean you will or will not be bringing muffins to the first meeting?

[Russell Kanning]

I am thinking of having our first short get-to-gether on Saturday in Concord at Liberty Books. Muffins may be served.

I sent them on, ahead.

ok good

I am so down for this. I really want to do a Keene Bureaucrash '09, where all the Keene residents make 98% joke runs for city council.

[Russell Kanning]

aha
I guess we might have similar goals.
But some of the Free State Party volunteers will be making serious runs for office, with serious intentions once they win.
And there will be room for some of us who might do "joke runs".
I am assuming you are planning this on freekeene.com ... if not you are welcome to promote it on thefreestateparty.com

I started to create a user account on the new forum and was presented with this:

"You agree, through your use of this forum, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, adult material, or otherwise in violation of any International or United States Federal law."

I'm afraid I'm unwilling to agree to almost every adjective in that sentence.

I guess that is a default feature ... that we will have to get rid of.

[Russell Kanning]

any ideas for a better agreement?
