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

Good morning.

I think.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Um, Dolly, your dog has a slinky attached to his/her neck.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Mornin'

(Okay Billie?)

[dutchess]

I'll be celebrating TGIF at 5:00!!!!

[DollyCali]

I have a couple of those.. they have links on each end & can make a lead or leash longer. They are primarily used in stores/checkout areas. they are the "gate".. closed when the line in not open in our stores. Our one store had them in closeouts for 1.99. I got a couple. Wish I had gotten a lot more. Very versatile with the doggies.

BTW.. you are very observant!!! off for a few more hours

Hello, auntie! What a funny graphic! Are you ready to party this weekend? lol

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

I should find the other shoulder for this dress before I go to work...

; )

(I should have never compared myself to Cindy Crawford, now if you ever see/meet me you'll be sorely disappointed/frightened.)

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

; )

Just teasing.

[FreeTheHostages]

Wow! What a welcoming graphic!! This one's for you, Lori:

Forgive me, GBA, but there is one more thing I need to add for THURSDAY! in a reply to what MEG33 posted to me there after I went to bed...
then I can settle down to Friday..:))

"I am disturbed by the shopping list presented to Congress..Public buildings and schools, infrastructure are one thing. I think it is law that we the people do that..but they go too far..Some of the people are pictured spending Fema money at the jewelry store and for alcohol..That angers me.. LA seemed to treat their bad boy politicians like it was just nothing and kind of fun lore..I am not laughing..."

Thought you'd understand well my message in # 95, MEG, watching LA as I did from the Huey long Days forward the disgrace that is Louisiana - especially New Orleans.

You and I know why their state is so bankrupt and corrupt - liberal Democrat "inbreeding" - "Good Ole Boy" mentality at its best.

Our advatage is decades of overview of certain regions of American political cesspools, and this kind of 'politics driving the train' issues.

Oh, yeah - you and lonestar and The Mayor and I really, really
need to support the restoration of the LA alligator farm...

New LA Campaign Slogan - -

Instead of "A Chicken In Every Pot,"
"An Alligator in Every Back Yard!!"
Y'all come pick out your favorite!

[I suggest they be named Nagin and Blanco and...]

< /sarcasm >

[LadyX]

A powerful, comforting breakfast fare you serve, Rus...
To believe that message is to be able to face "tomorrow" with confidence and joy!

[OESY]

Remember, today is wear red day ... oh, never mind.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

See what happens when people drink too much beer?

[DollyCali]

Is that Dave, Oesy & Louie out on the town???

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Dunno, but the one on our right, his left, is checking out the one in the middle...

[DollyCali]

Hehehe...

[OESY]

Out on the town?

More likely, out of their minds.
