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!

Welcome to TGIF at the Finest!   We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. From the beginning, we've been kicking back on Saturdays and Sundays and simply reviewing the features of the week; our weekend threads now start on Friday and continue through Sunday. If you missed seeing any of this week's threads and want to say hello there now, just click on the link for that particular day. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today through Sunday, please feel free to do that also. One of us will try to be around to see the welcome mat is still out, put the coffee pot on, and maybe even bring fresh flowers for the table. : )

Welcome to the weekend at A Few of FR's Finest!

[cyborg]

good morning!

[Gabz]

Yeah Friday..................one week closer to the start of school!!!!!

[Billie]

Hi, there, cyborg. It's been a wild ride lately - I'm LOVING all this stuff that's hitting flip-flop lately!

[cyborg]

Oh yes it's done wonders for my mental health watching Kerry drowning in his own BS.

[Billie]

Hi, Gabz. Yeah, school's starting, which means tomorrow will be Christmas. :)

[Billie]

I'm taking off for a bit, but will leave some breakfast - enjoy!

[Gabz]

LOL!!! Bite your tongue!!!!!!!

Thanks for the ping. I needed it today. I barely have enough energy to click the mouse now and then. Hopefully a few trips to FreeRepublic will energize me.

[cyborg]

What's wrong?

[jamaly]

I had tooooo much fun at a Tupperware party last night. LOL. It was at my Baptist church so believe me there was no drinking involved.

[cyborg]

LOL okay I thought you were sick or sumthin'. I LOVE Tupperware. There's a lady that has a little kiosk of the stuff in the local mall. That's a great way for a stay-at-home mom to make some money.

[jamaly]

Actually you save 10% by buying it at a party. My daughter is considering selling it as fundraisers to schools and churches. She doesn't want to have to give parties because they would mostly be at night and she has twin 4 year olds. But, she is going to find out more about the fundraising aspect. It sounds like a possiblity.

[cyborg]

The fundraising aspect sounds interesting.

Christmas? Tomorrow?! Gotta start shopping....

"Hi, Gabz. Yeah, school's starting, which means tomorrow will be Christmas. :)"

Gabz, school here began week before last!

Folks, yesterday I went to the Dollar General for ziplock bags, etc., and although it isn't even Labor Day yet, there were Halloween things and candy out already!!!

Now that is truly scary !!

[Gabz]

School starts day after labor day according to the website - but I still haven't gotten the list of supplies yet. I only found out on the website today that the open house is a week from today.....the whole situation has been truly bizarre.

Halloween stuff before labor day??? Doesn't surprise mein the least!!!
