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. : )

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

"I didna speak of it lassie." Sure and ye'll have nae need of takin' tha blame as The Blabbermouth, darks -- as Sistah Nan knows, I canna keep a secret like this one..:))
In keeping with this, this silly birdie told me another little gem I must share, from Diver Dave's mouth to our ears:
"Today is also Logan's third birthday."
For the few who might not know, Logan is one of our adopted Finest little ones - he and his cousin, Christian, both are Dave's grandsons, and he cares for them often.
Happy Birthday, Logan
from Aunt Maggie

It's when you start 'channling' the gutteral utterings of a certain Goth that I'd worry.

As for your tagline, darks --
"(I have friends, and I have co-conspirators.)" --
one might note they are not necessarily mutually exclusive..:))

Thank you O Wise One. And thanks to MB for raising the alarm. It's nice to have so many friends with well wishes. Maybe there will be time for cake and ice cream later.

FYI, Tonk, from the Live Web Cam in Fairbanks, Alaska, here is how it is at 12:49 p.m. their time... 5 degrees and light snow, and losing 6+ minutes of light daily...
First, the normal daytime view from the Web Cam on the Chena (CHEE-na) River:
And at 12:49 on the date/time stamp (and *refreshing* periodically will bring it to a more current time there):
The Live Web Cam is located at http://wwwndo.ak.blm.gov/live.html -- HERE --
Five above is considered balmy, and in just a little while, it will be pitch black dark!!

Anchorage has spent almost 2 weeks above freezing. YUCK!!
Finally a couple inches of snow yesterday. Fairbanks is always sooooo much colder. Thanks, LadyX, for the web cam. Beautiful shot!

Having days on end in my 3 1/2 years in Fairbanks when the HIGH for the day was 40 below, and hung around 50 below zero, was a challenge!
I adapted surprisingly well, though, after easing into it from my home state of Florida to South Dakota for one year, and THEN Fairbanks!
Still happiest with a tempered climate, and don't care to shovel snow and scrape ice ever again..:))
The worst snowfall here in this part of South Carolina is when in Spring the dogwood trees release their petals, cascading on breezes to the ground..:))
