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!

"Wear Red" Friday

You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here's why..... The Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like yourself, and all their friends, simply want to recognize that Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red-blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED.

Word of mouth, press, TV -- let's see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University. If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED - and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red! So let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE. FOR US, THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA.

I received this in my email June 10th, the author is unknown.
I am wearing red today and every Friday ~ Billie

Thank you, Sweetest Maggie! You are a Joy to me Heart, and a Precious Treasure that All will see Shining Radiantly on that Day when our Father Assembles His Jewels.

You Make me Want to Praise our King's Name!

I see on your Profile Page
" (I'm mainly a cat person)."

Last dog I had was in 1969 - since then, numerous wonderful kitties;
most who "found me," or were "inherited"..:))

[LadyX]

I'm so glad God plunked you down in our midst, Miss Mittens..:))
You bring us such pure , Little One.

[LadyX]

No coins for the meter, so I'll have to vacate my Parking Space?

I AM A NOW DISPLACED PERSON?

Housework is calling my name??!!

OKAY - ALL OF ABOVE..:))
Be back this evening, though...

[DollyCali]

lovely lady aqua. Titanic vintage.. love those victorian styles..and upswept hair. thanks for posting it.

[tuliptree76]

My family had a lot of cats over time when I grew up. I haven't been able to have a cat in years though - the places that I have lived in don't allow pets (except for fish).

[JustAmy]

Helloooo, Kitty Mittens.

Hope today finds you well. I love your Kitty logo. She is sooo cute.

[tuliptree76]

Happy Aviation Day!

[DollyCali]

Congrats Amy - cute little addition to the family.. Since you gave up the Amy Place thread, God saw you had "more time & gave you a few fuzzy gifts??? maybe PrissyMissy is a vet in the future?

We have continual drop off here of cats .. usually pregnant or delivering on my front porch. It is a LOT of extra work/expense that is for sure. I am an unofficial branch of the no kill Humane society I guess.

[DollyCali]

Hi Mozie, we can add your son to the Military Prayer List(see post 8) if you would like. Jemian added her son this past week. Every day we remember the military men & women but on Monday is the special day.. (the one we had talked about .."eventually"). I am thinking of you today. {{{mozie}}}

[Kitty Mittens]

You Brought Tears to my Eyes, and Great Love to my Soul, my dear sister in our Lord. Thank you for Brightening Up my Life.

[Kitty Mittens]

Hi Dolly! I Hope your Day is going Well!

My Family is about to Come Over, so I Bid Farewell for Now to Everyone at the Finest, with many Hugs. Have a Wonderful Day, dear Finest FRiends!

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Thank you Tulip.

My 'new' kind of cake. Didn't find any new clothes at the mall. Boy are the new styles aweful and colors UGLY. Muddy colors...yukky earth tones and teenager styles. Cashier at Macy's said her older customers are complaining about both colors and styles. I may now be thin but I sure don't want hip huggers and slut or maternity looking tops!

[tuliptree76]

LOL! Hi PAL! :-)
