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!

Hey..Giz here...Today's a re-run day. Had a great thread lined up for today....but FredtheCat and I got carried away with all the ice cream from Billie's thread and took a too long nap. Plus....never saw I re-run we didn't like. ENJOY!

How Many Dogs Does It Take to Change A Light Bulb?

Golden Retriever: The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?

Border Collie: Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

Dachshund: You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!

Rottweiler: Make me.

Boxer: Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.

Lab: Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh? Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please!

German Shepherd: I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.

Jack Russell Terrier: I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.

Old English Sheep Dog: Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb?

Cocker Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet in the dark.


Chihuahua: Yo quiero Taco Bulb.

Pointer: I see it, there it is, there it is, right there ..

Greyhound: It isn't moving. Who cares?

Australian Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little circle ...

Poodle: I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.

The Cat Answer???...... Dogs do not change light bulbs. People change light bulbs. So,the real question is: How long will it be before I can expect some light, some dinner, and a massage?????

Very Cute thread, dutchess. We all love our pets at the Finest. Here is a photo of Lucy, playing with Sheldon. (A few years ago) Lonestar, I am sure Weinie and Sheldon are having fun in rainbow heaven.

Howdy, Miss Dutchess ... a D-lightful thread, always worthy of a second look.

[Mama_Bear]

Just dashing in and out on this dog day afternoon to say hello and thank you for re-running this post, dutchess. It always makes me smile. The comments match the breeds perfectly.

Can't stay, wish I could. Happy Wednesday to one and all!

[deadhead]

"Happy Wednesday to one and all!"

Happy Wednesday to you too, Mama_Bear :-)

[Aquamarine]

[Kitty Mittens]

((((LOUIE)))) I sympathize with you; I lost my dear friend, The Fang-Face, four weeks and one day ago; it was awful.

[Kitty Mittens]

Dutchess, thank you for this thread; I hadn't seen it before! :)

[dutchess]

Glad you liked the second look. Keep waiting to meet a new "feline" in the jwfiv household :o)

[Kitty Mittens]

...she would get up on the table and make him put his arms in a circle around her.

What a sweet kitty she was, my Lady! :)

[jwfiv]

It'll be awhile yet, as my new place doesn't allow pets.

I have a hunch I gonna be gifted with a kitten upon my move, but the terms of my lease put that on hold.

Maybe someday ... meanwhile, I've lately had several dreams about cats or kittens ... sweet little things, even in dreamland... )
