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!

Florida and THE SOUTH have surely had their share of torment and problems as a result of Mother Nature the past couple years. Our resident satirist, JohnHuang2, who resides in Southern Florida has NOT missed the bullet and following Wilma’s visit, is awaiting power & ability to contribute with us again.

Needing a replacement for this Thursday, the Sistah’s wisely went to the deepest political thinker on the FRee Republic Forum, DollyCali (cough, cough, choke, choke …as a nose somewhere is growing)

Let’s see, shall we analyze Meir’s withdrawal? Reid’s most recent rants? The Scooter indictment? Charles & Camilla's visit to US? Alito’s selection for SCOTUS? POTUS trip to Asia? The 2000th death in Iraq? The de-throwning of Anne Coulter? The Condi 08 movement?

?????

Naw, let’s consider something REALLY important.

A baby squirrel.

Yes, this will be a hot bed of political discussion. Should survival of the fittest been permitted to happen? Will this woman, Debbie, be a wildlife law breaker and be charged with various violations of local statues? Will the libertarians have an opportunity to demand local ordinances as these be eliminated? Will Michael Moore make this into a movie? Who will play the baby squirrel? Who will play the wicked squirrel mother, who threw the squirrel out of the nest? Will the cancer ridden rescuer have her last days with cancer in jail? Will Hospice be permitted to visit? Will the dog breeders of America shout BAD WOMAN!? Will the baby squirrel now need therapy to realize he is NOT a dog? Will the dog pups no longer follow their nature & not chase squirrels? Will the Papillon Association of America with draw Giselle’s pedigree?

But the key question:

Will peace activists tell us that this is a lesson for the US & terrorists……

Cant we all just get along????

Well, wonder if any of us has any clue what will be the fate of Finnegan? Will he be content to play with the dogs? Will his inner instinct drive him to his “own kind”? Will he look for a mate in the dog world (pleasing the libs)? Will he work for the Park Service?

Or will his aspirations be a bit higher? Well, here is an idea….

Hi deadhead!
That is a beautiful squirrel. I've never seen them here. We have just the Gray ones. Oops, I forgot. You know that. LOL!

[silent_jonny]

[deadhead]

HI GodBlessUSA, nice to see you. I saw a black squirrel in eastern L.I., very cool :-)

"My Grandfather didn't want to sell the house and go but he knew he had to. He needs people around 24 hours. He just loves it and he's in his own place. What a wonderful place he lives"

Blessings to your Grandfather. Happy that he is doing well in his new home.

I'm alright
Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight?
Can't you just let it be?

I'm alright
Don't nobody worry 'bout me
You got to gimme a fight
Why don't you just let me be

Do what you like,
Doing it nat'rally
But if it's too easy
They're gonna disagree

It's your life
And isn't it a mystery
If it's nobody's bus'ness
It's everybody's game

Gotta catch you later
No, no, cannonball it right away

Some Cinderella kid

Get it up and get you a job

Can't you just let it be?

I'm alright
Don't nobody worry 'bout me
You got to gimme a fight
Why don't you just let me be

Who do you want?
Who you be today?
And who is it really
Makin' up your mind?

You wanna listen to the man?
Pay attention to the magistrate
And while I got you in the mood
Listen to your

Own heart beatin'
Own heart beatin'
Own heart beatin'
Own heart beatin'

Don't it get you movin'

mmmmm-man

It make me feel good

(Wow, Cinderella kid)

Then give it up and give it the job

(dip dip dip dip dip dip dip dip)
(Boom, boom, boom, boom)

I'm alright
Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight?
Can't you just let it be?

Don't nobody worry 'bout me
You got to gimme a fight
Why don't you just let me be

Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight?
Can't you just let it be?

I'm alright
I'm alright
Just let me be

What wonderful 'stories' you tell with your gatherings of squirrel pictures and their comments!

I just stumbled upon a darling site - - - Sugar Bush Squirrel-The Superstar Squirrel-Supermodel Squirrel

Here is a description of her and a few pictures of this real live squirrel...

"Sugar Bush Squirrel is a real, live Eastern Gray Squirrel who is owned and photographed by Ms. Kelly Foxton. Rescued, as a baby in her nest, from a tree which was being cut down, she is now living the 'good life' with Kelly in Boca Raton, Florida. A small, lime-green parrot, named Rio, is her big sister and constant companion.

Being an International Superstar and The World's Most Photographed Squirrel, Sugar Bush loves to dress up, and has over 1,000 outfits with matching hats and accessories. Sugar Bush Squirrel has her own, posh studio with an elaborate stage and thousands of stage props, and has posed for over 1,000 photos since her modeling career began. As News Anchor of SNN-The Squirrel News Network, she has turned the catch phrase, 'you've been squirreled' into an overnight success. It is fast becoming her very own, international, household expression."

*DO* go there to see MORE creative things, including visiting GWB in the Ocal Office...
Squirrel Wars - EpisodeIII...calendars, and much more..:))

[silent_jonny]

You recognized the gopher!

Shhh, don't tell anyone you saw him. He's retired now, living a quiet life away from the paparazzi.

He's the Garbo of gophers :)

[silent_jonny]

'you've been squirreled'

In MTV lingo, I believe it's spelled "squirrel'd" :)

[deadhead]

Sugar Bush Squirrel is a cutie :-)

[LadyX]

silent_johnny is a Man of Mega Talent...
going to his Profile Page and clicking on the last link, I found this!

Need to go back and see more of his work!

[DollyCali]

THANK YOU BILLIE . Just got in. I think I speak for all the Sistah's when I say we appreciate a thumbs up from you (and work hard to not have to stand in corner for extended lengths of time!!!!)

regarding typos etc. It is funny how we miss our own things so often. I am truly NOT a detail person & doing these details threads is challenging for me.

Loved the deer/pup sequence you collaged. My goal is to learn a anew HTML technique & use it for each thread. I don't always do it & find more often than not I am tripped up on something I THOUGHT I knew... the article posting is much different in response than a "post" as we have all here learned.

[deadhead]

Checked Jonny's profile page. You are very talented, silent_jonny. I remember your friend, TexasFlower. Sad, she left this world way too soon.

Love this pic

[DollyCali]

what a darling set of pix Maggie.. you always make good contributions. I will let you know how the movie Jarhead is..

and for you & deadhead.. amazing how different but how similar we all are. If I had cable, I might watch more TV & not do movies - dont know. But I am NOT really a TV / commercial break person.

I do (dont get mad) 6-10 movies a month :& would go twice a day if I could. I love the big screen, comfy seats, great sound etc. I have state of art equipement here but just can't compare. I truly think that I would love being involved in production. I have two relatives who are now involved in movie production and one 2nd cousin a star from years past (debra winger). Not that I get any benefit but when we are together with the production folks it is fun to "talk shop" and they are always thrilled that I am up on movies, techniques, lingo, patterns, directors, producers.. and I know about their principals etc.

I have said before & will say again... I think movie prices are a bargain for what goes into it & ho wmany people are involved. But I also know, to each his own & some folks physically cant handle movies seats,walks etc. are offended by movies easily or just dont like "make believe".

I still love ya'all ... still love me?????

:-)

[no more apples]

[DollyCali]

well, I obviously have encountered "squirrel excellence"..

*wink*.

so glad you stopped by And so grateful for all your great contributions...

now for me this was a cute squirrel story.. for some I find out .. squirrel cults/homage runs quite deep.

Jonny.. thanks for bringing her over!!!!

[DollyCali]

I went to Kent State University. Now it is known for the 4 students killed in 1970.. but when I went there, one of the claims to fame was the presence of BLACK SQUIRRELS from England!!!

well, this predated the 1970 incident to be sure! and at new student orientation this was a fact they emphasized for us to make sure to note & observe & (be grateful?) for the presence of the squirrels.

One article here but do Google KENT STATE BLACK SQUIRRELS for a full listing of articles

[DollyCali]

this is by far my fav of jonny's works.. I want to use it in a special thread along the way.. will know when & how I am sure when the right time is there

[DollyCali]

Re: our friend Texasflower.. I am hoping you will do a special pix (if you haven't already) for her.. we can maybe do a special tribute for her.. that can be linked to the memorial page.

[deadhead]

"I still love ya'all ... still love me?????"

Absolutely, Dolly. Most people I know go to the movies and enjoy them. I just have never been a movie goer....We can all be very similar and share many of the same beliefs, but at the same time not be exactly the same. That would be boring if we were :-) I love hearing about what other folks do. It is fun, and I love when people have fun. We have one life to live, make the best of it and do what you enjoy.

LOL, here are the movies I have seen at a theater since 1980:

Silence of the Lambs
Independence Day
Star Wars
LOL, that is all I can think of,,,yep...can count them on one hand.

On Saturday, I will be going to see "The Producers"

Daily at work, on my lunch hour, I listen to the Grateful Dead, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell on my ipod as I walk around the pond for exercise. And I enjoy it :-) We are all different and have different interests, thanks be to God :-)

[DollyCali]

oh no.. I better not let Oliver & toby see this. they would be much too jealous. they would benefit (big time) from doggie undergrad school. What a wonderful pix!!!!!
