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!

They come in all shapes and sizes,



Colors and textures and densities.





Some are squishy



Some are solid



And some even have beans in their bottoms!





They have long legs



And short legs.





They can be boy bears





And girl bears.





There are bear families



And even bear singles.



Some are just downright *different*.





No matter what they look like,
however they feel
Love from a teddy bear
is love that is real.



Come share your favorite teddy bear story
with all of us here at the Finest!

Hiya, Aqua....hope you're having a great evening. (I think LadyX is purposely trying to confuse me.... : )

[Aquamarine]

You have me ROTFLOL....Lady will explain it all, we had a little fun with the California Governor's race.

Billie do you still have that CA candidates collage with Weinie in the cowboy hat?

[Temple Owl]

That is one handsome owl.

[nicmarlo]

What I'd like to know, is how did lonestar end up being called a "weinie" and LadyX a . . . . "gert"? (no offense, burp, I mean, gert) : )

[LadyX]

You really were lost when you didn't have a computer.

Hate to speak of a painful subject for lonestar, but Weinie was her dear daschund who went through much travail - poisonings, no less - and finally went to Rainbow Ridge, where all beloved pets go to wait for their humans to follow them to Heaven....they wait by the bridge when they hear our footsteps approaching.

Weinie was especially talented, and ran for Governor when G. Davis was recalled, and with the help of the Phinest Phreepers, could easily have beaten Ahnold.

Now Weinie communicates occasionally from there, through lonestar.

My gorilla graphic was lost when MY computer crashed, so I cannot show you how adorable I was, writing and talking and campaigning for Weinie.

Not confusing after all...:))

[jwfiv]

'Tis the thought that counts.

[nicmarlo]

LOL! Thanks for the clarification....yeah, confusing, not at all! (mumble, mumble, grumble, cough.)

[nicmarlo]

Lonestar, I'm truly sorry to hear about your weinie being poisoned....I hope a trusted neighbor didn't do this...but sounds like everything worked out, if your weinie was able to run around and strut to be elected governor! (did I just say that? must be LadyX's fault.)

[LadyX]

Here's a good one for you:

[LadyX]

(Hit Refresh on the last picture...)

[WVNan]

Did you say purple gorilla?

[WVNan]

This one?

[nicmarlo]

oh, how cute!

[Aquamarine]

That's right Lady, Weinie would have won!

Just remembered a comment you made about Weinie getting upset and throwing the dog medals over the fence into the neighbor's pool. It was hilarious!

[LadyX]

Yes - That is I - Gertie, the Purple Gorilla !!..))

Thanks, Nan.

(So, nic - didya think Weinie would have a dumb human being for a Press Agent?!)

[WVNan]

I'll make it up to you jw. We'll go for a picnic at the lake.

[LadyX]

"Just remembered a comment you made about Weinie getting upset and throwing the dog medals over the fence into the neighbor's pool. It was hilarious!"

Dose were da Daze..:))
Weinie inspired us all.

[WVNan]

Speaking of dog medals, did you see that massive dog that won the Westminster best of show? He was awesome.

[nicmarlo]

didya think Weinie would have a dumb human being for a Press Agent?!

But Weinie didn't; Weinie had a PURPLE GORILLA!!! : )

[The Mayor]

Boy oh boy what a thrill, I came home had a great dinner with my family then came in and looked at the thread and was overwhelmed by the Happy Birthday wishes, pics and music.
