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. : )

Opinions by our own 'King of Ping' Every Thursday at the Finest The guy's good, folks!

[The Mayor]

Hi Victoria! My pleasure, thanks for the bump..

[ST.LOUIE1]

Hi, scubie! : )

[JustAmy]

LOL

Sounds like some cats I've known. :)

[JustAmy]

Hi Scuba, how's babychick? Marissa misses her.

[JustAmy]

Good evening, Victoria. How are you enjoying the weekend?

Marissa is at a birthday party this evening. It will probably last a couple of hours. They have a pool, a water slide and a bounce house. I'm sure she will have a ball.

LouieMax is a very gentle dog. He lets Marissa sit on him, hug him and try to ride him like a horse. He just takes it all in stride. He really is a good, gentle dog.

[WVNan]

I am going to work my way through this thread and answer every ping, if it is the last thing I do.

LOL. Sometimes I try to do that MB, but it usually turns out to be the "last thing I do", like tonight for instance. Full day, and not too much evening left for me. How can you do that anyway considering what you have to do before Tues?

[WVNan]

Ha. Your kids leave you for school in the fall. I pick mine back up when her Momma goes back to school. I've had only one day a week this summer. In late Aug. I will have her for two days. I don't mind.

[WVNan]

Ah, no time for the weary when children are around. You have my empathy Amy. Some days I think, "I'm too old for this."

[WVNan]

Sorry to be so late answering you good mornings Amy. Long, busy day.

[WVNan]

Mama_Bear, it may just be a coincidence, but I got the most beautiful card in the mail today. It had a bear on it and I thought of you. :O)

[WVNan]

Bob, you blow my mind. I want a book of all your poems. So get busy and publish one.

[WVNan]

It's easy to laugh at yourself when you ain't got nothin' much else to ease the living. West Virginians know about hard living and empty pockets, and they know how to laugh at the devil.

[WVNan]

A map with P.P. marked will be fine MB. If you remember where it's located. Ha.

[WVNan]

You know, he does look like he's smiling, doesn't he?

[WVNan]

Hey, I didn't do anything! Just tried to help Auntie Bear cover up the evidence! teehee

Gasp! She helped you cover up the evidence? So....it was conspiracy, right down to diverting me to another section of Wally World.

[WVNan]

How could you have left Possum Queen Day off the August calendar?

[WVNan]

That reminds me. I got my "America Supports You" dogtag today.

[WVNan]

That is a cute poem isn't it. I'll bet Missy will like that one.

[WVNan]

LOL. I can't get over how his ears stood up. They were flopped down when he was wee little.
