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!

You'd Never Believe...

why this is not a super-duper-wonderful-knock-your-socks-off thread...
and instead a let's-see-what-we-can-throw-together-quickly effort.
But here are some possibilies

1.Oliver had 24 kittens.
2. The FBI confiscated my computer.
3. Hurrican Dennis took off our roof.
4. Woolfie and I had a mad 4 day get-away
5. I had heart,lung, liver, brain transplant over weekend.
6. I was out of state getting art lessons from Billie.
7. As I was kayaking on the Euphrates River I decided to visit w/troops a few days
8. My HTML went on pity-party strike for user abuse.
9. I went flying with Dutchess to California to see Just Amy & Mama_bear.
10. Diver Dave, Scubachick and I went to the Bahamas to check out the water and hurricanes.
11. I went to help Gabz following her foot surgery.
12.Snugs needed help in England with her dad.
13. Aquamarine needed some help sorting out her geodes.
14. I stuck my foot in my mouth(again) & needed to have surgical removal.
15. I joined Lance/crew for the most recent stage of the Tour de France..

Well, whatever the reason.. ..
HERE WE BE!!!! ..

And we will “be” for 3 days on this one thread. So post fun things, words of wisdom & use this for a three day HTML sandbox - think billie will be around to help ...but a few will be traveling.

And to use this time to wish a happy birthday to my DEAR son Jeff who turned 33 yesterday. His bride of 10+ years Shannon has a birthday today. Here they are with their two children at Stan Hywet last summer.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Great post as usual OESY! I'm leaving for the day, too much work!

; )

[ohioWfan]

Got it and responded! Thank you!

[deadhead]

Bless Christian, he looks great despite his injuries, poor guy.

"The Stuntman"

LOL, humor helps in every way, those t-shirts that Christian's Mom for him are very funny.

[deadhead]

Christian's Mom for him are very funny

should be

Christian's Mom bought for him are very funny

[LadyX]

That is one of the loveliest photographs I've ever seen, Colleen!
It conveys so much a sense of utter stillness, and somehow, expectation!

[LadyX]

Dave, I'm thrilled the injuries to Christian's wrists are not as serious as first feared. The shirts are real uppers!

Something struck me, though, about that face....just like Cousin Logan and the dogs Jack and Bailey, one can see how used to being in front of a camera he is - lolol...

Did you perhaps once act as a cameraman for the old TV program, Candid Camera -
as in "SMILE! You're on Candid Camera!" --?!!

[DollyCali]

I agree.. I felt almost a spiritual draw to it.. I should have picked that for the table battle pix, huh?

Well Lori & Amy are on way here to see Dutchess, Nan & me.. wish you & more could be with us..

[luvie]

Good evening! That is a beautiful table there, Mrs.N! I just got home and saw it and just had to say something.

[Colonial Warrior]

Hmmmm.... Well, Ladies. It seems that with the tables challenge, everyone is first class. I think I will just continue practicing in the sand this trip.

Great job Ladies.

Oh, and NicknamedBob -- I ain't gonna try no poems either!!
I was better off as a Lurker GRIN!

"That is one of the loveliest photographs I've ever seen, Colleen!"

"It conveys so much a sense of utter stillness, and somehow, expectation!"

Thank You very much, and those words are from my sister, Moe (Maureen) too. I told her about the lovely comments from you, Dolly and The Mayor about the photo and she appreciated it. After she came back from vacationing on Block Island with her husband last week, I asked her about her vacation, one of the first things she told me about was the beautiful sunrise / view she saw. This pic was taken from her hotel window, she awoke at about 5:30 in the morning, saw this view and ran to get her camera :-) Glad she did, I love this photo too.

[GodBlessUSA]

LOL! I like you picture. ;)

Thanks, that would be great. I hope where ever you are off to you are enjoying yourself! :)

[deadhead]

Hi there :-)

[GodBlessUSA]

Good evening deadhead! That's such a beautiful graphic! Thank You! :) How are you tonight?

[deadhead]

I am doing good, how are you? Saw your profile page, we are neighbors, I too am from N.Y. I was googling for graphics today and came across that one, glad you like it. Was so happy to see you here so I could post it to you, be sure to save it, lol...it has your name written all over it :-)

[GodBlessUSA]

Thank you so much! I love this graphic! I'm on eastern LI. Other than the politician, liberals and taxes I love NY. :)

[GodBlessUSA]

I'll have to use this graphic in a table. ;)

[deadhead]

"I'll have to use this graphic in a table. ;)"

I was hoping you would :-)

"I'm on eastern LI. Other than the politician, liberals and taxes I love NY. :)"

I am a Long Islander also, and feel exactly as you do. We have the most beautiful beaches!
