Gerald Nielsen's Comments

You need therapy!

FairTaxers tend not to be people of great wealth (add smiley face here) so we keep costs to a minimum for our participants.

We will post plans on FairTax Nation as things develop.

Thanks,
Marilyn

I hope you can join us in Washington DC on April 15, 2010. We are still working out the details but we should have them soon!

Hi Gerald:
I'm always glad to add a friend. I live in Wisconsin Rapids. Stop by sometime.

Best regards, Al

Also, I change the stop in Jim Falls to the Dam Shot Saloon. The Old Barn Bar has a big gravel parking lot with a hilly access drive. I thought it would be nice to stick to pavement as much as possible. Please give me a call some night this week. It would be nice to touch base with you. My cell # again is 559-3163. Thanks.

Hi Jerry. So I made the trip yesterday in about two and a half hours. That incudes stopping for about 5 minutes at each one. I figure it will take at least a half an hour to get cards handed out to all the riders the day of the ride. It all depends on the number of people we have. With 30 minutes figured at each stop that would be a 3 1/2 hour ride. So if we plan for registration at the coffe grounds from 10 to noon, started the ride at noon, we would end up at Moke's at around 4:30 or 5:00. Also, there was one section of the ride that I would like to change. I left Fall Creek on CTY D and road that to HWY 27. Then I just took that north to Cadott. On the map I thought it would be fine, but as I was riding it I got a little bored with it. Just too much straight highway. Do you know of a good back road route we can take from D and 27 to J&J's? If you do, could you possibly ride it and let me know how long it takes you to get to J&J's. It will add some time to the ride, but I think it will be worth it. We can always start a little early as well.

Hi Jerry. So I talked to Loopy's in Chippewa, the Old Barn Bar in Jim Falls, and the Brackett Bar in Brackett and they are all on board for a poker run as long as we can pick a weekend that works with everyone. I was thinking of maybe making The coffee grounds our starting point and head over to Brackett go up through Fall Creek and on towards Lake Wissota and stop somewhere out there. Head on up to Jim Falls. To Loopys from there and end up at Mokes. Let me know what you think. We need to pick a date soon so the bars can have signs made up. I will find out from Loopy how much time he needs to have those made and we can get a better idea how far out we need to plan.

Thanks,
Lance

Oh, I see. The midwest rally is on June 13th. Sorry, I thought it was this weekend. Like I said, Jun is very busy. I also got invited to two other rallys that weekend that I can't go to. I hate turning down a chance to ride.

No, I am not going to that rally. Something about Mothers day?
I have not talked to the Bracket Bar yet. I know, I really need to do that. I will make it my goal this coming week. I will let you know what I find out by this coming weekend. As a side note, I lost the key to my bike and I couldn't find my spare so I hadn't ridden for 3 weeks. Actually, April 15th was the last time I rode. I had new keys made so I am ready to ride again!
Since I am on the subject, July would work best for me for a poker run. June is completely booked. Let me know what you think in case Loopy's and Bracket Bar ask for a date.

Jerry, I will forward you the message I got from a Minn director. Here is what I sent him. Can you take it from here. It is about the Freedom Riders.

Dave,
We actually have a chapter of the Freedom Riders. Our point man for the Chippewa Valley group is Jerry Nielsen and he is a member of FairTax Nation. I will forward this request to him. I believe he has already set up a site for our local chapter that you can link to on our website www.chippewavalleyfairtax.org. Maybe Jerry can help you out or co-conspire to set something up. I believe he is also planning on going to the Midwest Rally. I do not know if there are any other riders from here going with him.

Is that snow behind you?? BBRRRRRRRRRRRR

Hey Gerald,
Like your bike. Mine is a 2006 Electra Glide.

I'll work on it and get something to you.

Jerry I herd you on the radio this morning you did well. I like that when you come you come hard with researched facts to support your comments very well done. 3 out of 4 nobel prize winning economists do not support the spending bill. Well done well done indeed Keep it up I'll be listening.

Jerry,
I am getting your e-mail returned today. Did your e-mail change?
Bob

I am so excited about chapter rides making some noise! Imagine when we have 50 chapters across the country working in concert?! By the end of the year, I think this is very possible! I think it'll be a great way to get the FairTax word out!
