A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....10-21,22,23-05....T.G.I.F. at the Finest

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. : )

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

LCDR & Mrs. Scubachick... I have a reputation for being late to the party on occasion, and I have lived up to that reputation this week.

Welcome Home LCDR. Hope you won't mind if we continue to pray for you and your mates as you continue to serve in the greatest Navy in the world.

Salute, sir!... two

You need a graphic and a song to go with your poem. :-)

Raucously reveling in relaxation, I repose
Imagining the Moulin Rouge and comely women doing the Can-Can
Capturing the attention of each and every man
With fluttered layered skirt, gorgeous gams and the glimpse of gartered hose!

I had to switch songs on Winamp.
Was listening to a song by The Donnas...

I really should be more careful with my playlist though.
I'll FReepmail you what the song was...

Yes, I am suffering dismembered thought tonight.
Not disjointed, that would be an order less than my currently scattered thinking.

So.. I am very easily made to laugh at the moment.

I'm looking at my playlist for other songs that may send me off into laughing fits when combined with images..

Well, I'm glad you're feeling that way. Nothing better than having our spirits up. :-)

I can get you a few oldie goldie songs, but I don't know if they would have the same effect on you.

Thanks!

Good contrast to what I was listening to...
Not as 'aggressive' as what I was listening to.
