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
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. : )

Thanks, Mixer!
1) Click on the graphic to open the Calendar. 2) Once there you can click on any month and even click to the right to go into next year. Once you are in the month that you joined FR you will need to click on the number in the calendar and then an add item screen will come up. 3) In the next box enter your name in the "Calendar Text" field and then click on submit. 4) If any of the screens fail to load simply click on refresh in your browser and that will usually fix it. 5) If all else fails or simply if you want me to do this for you send me a FReepmail and I will gladly do it for you. ~Mixer

"Had the Admin help me out with the title, it's fixed now." I've been influenced by my association with The Thin Man, Aqua, and just couldn't let it rest..:))

To: LadyX; The Thin Man
As much as I hate to admit it his influence is important around here. Went back and had the Admin make the corrections on my OI Post the other day (including the typo you found and another one that I found) since you said you were sending a link out to your grandchildren. Just couldn't stand the thought of confusing them with misspelled words.

We've been having rain for two weeks now, we're under a flash flood watch. Need to give Daisy another bath, she still smells awful but hate to do it when it's raining so much.

Dear Empress:
![](http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:EjefD2Ywp74J:www.be-young.com/images/contents/Empress.jpg)
On the occasion of your XXth birthday, my mind harks back to when we became friends in 1998 in those trying Whitewater Days.
Following that were the glorious Freeper Island ones, when we had so much fun, morphing that into a Means To Hijack about-to-ignite threads..:))
The past two years you have woven us into the Best Place on FR, maintaining it as one dedicated to the Finer and Finest Things of American Life, making each of us one of a "Family."
You are known to one and all as a beautiful, talented and gracious woman - and so very, very special!
God has given you many gifts, and graced and blessed us all with who and what you are.
May He hold you in the palm of His hand forever, dear and wonderful friend - -
With love,

I have been wandering darkened hallways far from the beaten path where dark things lurk behind shadowed doors, and things wait for the unwary to stumble, and discordant voices chant in strange tongues to unknown and foreign gods.
(In other words, was wandering a troll thread.)

I feel so bad I can't stay here and thank each and every one of you (just yet - but I promise I am going to acknowledge each individual BD 'wish' as soon as I can get back online to stay)
Aqua, thank you first of all - BIG TIME! - for putting the weekend thread up for me. Just knew the dead phone line was going to be very short-lived, but it's still dead, and what I've done to get here and say hello and thank you all is the funniest-looking thing - I've got several long phone lines strung from my dining room (which is the closest phone jack for the main line) all the way into the back of my pc. It's slower than Christmas, keeps disconnecting, and just generally annoying!
I'm LOVING every one of your 'cards' and posts and will be back as soon as I can to tell you personally.
Wolfie, I love that sheriff! WHOA! I'm *bad*! (that's good, huh?)
Amy, you are so sweet, too, to be here AND at Amy's, where I need to go say hello before I get cut off again.
I love you ALL!

thanks Aqua.. Enjoyed the weeks offerings. I do NOT always have time to post, but I normally do read what the "presenters" give to us.
Here is a little humor ... it is a cool dreary day here.. I got a chuckle out of these...
Murphy's Law Regarding Kids:
1. The later you stay up, the earlier your child will wake up the next morning.
2. For a child to become clean, something else must become dirty.
3. Toys multiply to fill any space available.
4. The longer it takes you to make a meal, the less your child will like it.
5. Yours is always the only child who doesn't behave.
6. If the shoe fits...it's expensive.
7. The surest way to get something done is to tell a child not to do it.
8. The gooier the food, the more likely it is to end up on the carpet.
9. Backing the car out of the driveway causes your child to have to go to the bathroom.
10. The more challenging the child, the more rewarding it is to be a parent...sometimes.
