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!

Not ALL of those 501 threads have been posted to the Finest, but probably most were. The following are a few of my favorites - they don't include profiles, because those are too hard to choose from, and they don't include the many wonderful threads that the other hostesses have created and presented over the past two and a half years....just those ideas that popped into my head and ended up *here*.

If you missed the original presentations and are inclined to check out the full thread, the link is provided above each vignette. (A brief description of each can be read by holding your mouse over the graphic heading.)

Billie, you failed to mention the 21,424 typos, 174 little red x's, 614 insults.......

I've kept count.

:-)

[Billie]

Hope you are, Freezie. You're going to the Inaugural Ball, aren't you? You must be sure and 'meet' Mama Bear, who will be there with Just Amy. She is going to do a Finest thread with pictures when she returns. We need to have one of the two of you together - being half-sistahs and all. :)

[Billie]

Morning, Rus. Thanks again for the day off yesterday, by continuing Monday's thread through Tuesday. It's still very slow around here, and we may need to do that again sometime.

[Billie]

Yes, the doctor said they will go away but then that more will come along. :(

That's *not* good. :(

LOL! I might have known you would! So.....give me your password - I want to see what *yours* really says, cause I lost track. LOL!

[Billie]

Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dutchess; Dansangel; Aquamarine, and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation’s leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.

Mornin' Billie.

501 Threads? Hmmm. Sounds like a pair of Levi's to me.

LOL! That is too clever!

[visualops]

It's like taking too much medication for symptomatic relief; you don't feel sick so you tend to forget you are indeed ill.

[Diver Dave]

That is too clever!

Ooops! Sorry. Hope there's not a penalty. ;)

[Billie]

Good morning, visualops. Hope your new year is starting off *good*!

[Billie]

Ooops! Sorry. Hope there's not a penalty. ;)

Oh, but there is. You are sentenced to write another excellent essay for the Finest. Now get to work. :)

[Kitty Mittens]

I have Floaters, Aqua, and they are certainly a Nusiance! :(

[Kitty Mittens]

Thank you for this Thread, Billie! I'm coming back tonight to Read some of the Links, especially 'Texas, My Texas!'

I Love that Picture you Included with your Ping, dear Billie! It's cute! : )

[Billie]

Gosh! I'm so glad to see you! It's been so quiet, I was afraid the door had locked behind me when I left to get a bite of lunch. :)

Thank you for this Thread, Billie! I'm coming back tonight to Read some of the Links, especially 'Texas, My Texas!'

I hope you enjoy the threads, Kitty. Sometimes it's more interesting to *see* what a thread is about than just to see an active link. Know you weren't here when some of the threads were posted. Check out the Easter Bonnet thread, too, for pics of some of our regulars that you might not have seen before (both gals AND guys) :)

I Love that Picture you Included with your Ping, dear Billie! It's cute! : )

:) *That* thread was about March Holidays and that day was "Old Stuff Day", and we were joking about those being our prom dresses. :)

[Billie]

Sending out an SOS to th' wolfie. HELP!!! Pineapple Pie, Cookies 'n Milk, pancakes, Hugs, Smooches.......

  

[Diver Dave]

You are sentenced to write an(....) excellent essay for the Finest. Now get to work. :)

Boy, you sure are a pushy taskmaster and now you want excellent?

Does excellent include a raise? $$$$$$

[Pippin]

Thanks!

May you have a wonderful and blessed year too! :o)

[Billie]

Boy, you sure are a pushy taskmaster and now you want excellent?

Does excellent include a raise? $$$$$$

LOL! Dave, Dave, Dave - anything you write is *excellent*.

(Now isn't that better than any ole $$$$$$$$?)

Sure hope you can draw a bigger crowd than today! LOL
