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!
~ Billie, Mama_Bear, Dutchess, Aquamarine, DollyCali ~

Hello, Dolly,......well, hello, Dolly It's so nice to have you back where you belong You're lookin' swell, Dolly.......I can tell, Dolly You're still glowin'...you're still crowin'... you're still goin' strong......
From the Broadway Musical "Hello, Dolly" by Jerry Herman

We have a new sistah!
Please give a warm welcome to Miss DollyCali, who, along with Dutchess, hails from the good state of Ohio (you know - the state that gave Dubya a second term - this year's "Florida"!)
Dolly has agreed (with just a *wee bit* of arm-twisting) to join MamaBear, Dutchess, Aquamarine, The Mayor and me in making sure this place is one of the funnest, friendliest, and finest places on the net! Thank you, Dolly. We look forward to working and playing with you.
So without further ado, let's hear it one more time.......(Louie Armstrong recorded this song with the All Stars in December 1963 before leaving for a tour in Europe. While in England, he found out, the song had hit number one on the charts, replacing the 'Beatles' "She Loves You". He also recorded the song in Paris in 1965)
"Hello, Dolly"

We've been invaded around these parts. Swarms of Painted Lady butterflies are fluttering all over the place.
They're camera shy cuz everytime I get close, they fly away. Nonetheless, they are helping pollinate our orange blossoms.

How pretty! Send a few down our way. I have seen none around these parts. I did notice lots of nondescript moths flying around this morning, but no pretty butterflies yet. Once our lantana starts blooming it will attract swarms (flocks? herds? bevies? LOL) of butterflies.
To: Chong
Billie, Thanks a lot! ;-) I'm trying to work on my side job crunching somebody's numbers for uncle Sam, and that song is playing over and over in my head now. "Hello, Dolly~ Well, hellloooooo, Dolly~ ~ ~" LOL! You're welcome! (Hey, yesterday NicknamedBob posted the lyrics to "Somewhere Out There", and I was humming it from then on. :)

Congrats, CCC! I celebrated my SEVENTH FRanniversary last month. Yep, I am older than dirt around here.....well, except for Billie, she's even older than I am. LOL
To: DollyCali
Love that dancin' cat, Dolly,....yep, that's the happy dance we're doing. ;-)

Thanks to you fine folks for the further greetings and good words. Rus, It is a shame that wonderful group does not have the cohesiveness.
For everyone who doesn't know.. over a year ago Rus tried VERY HARD to get a group going in Buffalo area. I invited myself along because I frequent the coastal areas West of Buffalo (for decades) with family there. they were a fascinating group & I do believe want to participate.
It seems everyone is so busy with kids; work etc. I as a guest there with them thought that group would catch on fire & take off in activistm. Apparently that has not happened.
Aqua, tha link to Bill (wheelborrows post HERE but ending up doing a new thread) is linked in post 76.

Nooooooooooooooooo!!!!

I'll take the "Hello Dolly" anytime over "sommmmeeee~~ whereeee~~ out there~~....."
Y'all are cruel; now my two little brain cells are having a major conflict over the two songs. Like I said, thanks a lot! :-)

Hey, Syncro! I am just soooo disappointed that I can't go back for the March. I hope you all have a great time and I hope there is a humongous bunch of people representing all of our states.
(I guess I don't need to ask if Sheila is going back with Jim. LOL)

To: Syncro; DollyCali
LOL, Sync! Thanks for the pictures. (I pinged Dolly to your post!)

To: Syncro
oh... you are too funny... oh the shirt that Billie has on the post???? YOU have it??? :)
Trip is looking tenuous at this point. I had two ride potentials (all three of us were going together). Both now have work conflicts (one is Coast Guard & in charge of Cleveland Homeland security & the other has just started a new job)... since my identity theft last winter I have NOT been able to finance the repairs I need on my van (major transmission problems)...
so unless I can find someone quickly -- not looking good. I have pinged our NE Ohio list.. and talked to several. I am very disappointed..
