A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!

Bush - Cheney '04

         

With the Democratic National Convention opening this week in Boston, we will have much to laugh   talk about and many, many photos to make fun of   joke about   discuss. Already we're lovin' it with Teresa shovin' it and her hubby unable to get the baseball across the plate!

Shaping up to be a fun week, I know JH2 will have much to say in Thursday's Two Cents, but let's talk about the Good (no contest), the Bad (you know who they are), and the Ugly (that's easy) today, too!

         

GO BUSH! 2 TERMS!
One of the Good Guys, near the Fleet Center.


Good Grief! A "Dukakis Moment" at Space Center.
There's silly, there's goofy, and then there's kerry!

         

Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow.....
.....Remember, *THIS* is what we had Yesterday!

Say Goodbye, John-John!

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, One Nation Under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All.

Hi, there, keysguy! You're right - FR is 'the' place to be. :) I can't even imagine Laura Bush acting the way Teresa did.

[Billie]

Oh, I *did* get this up before you left! I thought I had missed you.

Thank you! Hope to see you back later. Thanks for my wolfie hug. Have a fun time on the golf course!

Both Glad And Sad

Read: Luke 12:16-21

Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, . . . but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven. —Matthew 6:19-20

Bible In One Year: Psalms 43-45; Acts 27:27-44

---

There’s an old legend about three men who were crossing a desert on horseback at night. As they approached a dry creek bed, they heard a voice commanding them to dismount, pick up some pebbles, put them in their pockets, and not look at them till the next morning. The men were promised that if they obeyed they would be both glad and sad. After they did as they were told, the three mounted their horses and went on their way.

As the first streaks of dawn began to spread across the sky, the men reached into their pockets to pull out the pebbles. To their great surprise, they had been transformed into diamonds, rubies, and other precious gems. It was then that they realized the significance of the promise that they would be both glad and sad. They were happy that they had picked up as many pebbles as they did, but sorry—so sorry—that they had not collected more.

I wonder if we will have a similar feeling when we get to heaven. We will be happy for the treasure we laid up in heaven while on earth, and joyful for the rewards Christ will give us. But we will also experience regret for not having done more to serve Him.

Let’s make the most of our opportunities so that we’ll be more glad than sad. —Richard De Haan

The day will come when we will stand
Before our Judge, God’s Son;
Have we so lived that He will say,
“Well done, My child, well done”? —Sper


The crowns we wear in heaven must be won on earth.

Hi, Pip! How 'ya doin' this morning?

((((((((((Pip))))))))))

[Billie]

Good morning, Rus.
Re Gladder than sad....a nice thought - one of those "easier-said-than-done, hindsight-kind-of" lessons. :)

[The Mayor]

Yes, I agree....

I was out the door at 7:30
in the dentist chair at 8:00
stopped at home to post coffee
now back out to go do some work.

[Aquamarine]

This is Teresa's shove it moment, just more proof that having money does not equal class.

[Billie]

Mornin', Sistah A. Thanks for the shove it moment - you're going to have fun this week with John's Two Cents!

[Billie]

Sorry I was a little late posting today's thread - didn't get to start on it until late yesterday afternoon and had to finish it this morning. :(

[The Mayor]

Todays Toons!!

[Diver Dave]

Mornin' Billie.
Had a semi-tough decision to make last night. Was I to watch the Giants vs. Padres or the new reality show, "America's Famous Liars"?
The Giants lost - oh well.

[Aquamarine]

you're going to have fun this week with John's Two Cents!

It should be extra good this week. ;)

[Aquamarine]

That 'From the henhouse, this is Fox News' cartoon is too funny!

[The Mayor]
