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.

[LadyX]

Yo, JustAmy - -
Wanna step out tonight since JustFrank is locked up?

[I justlove red-blooded patriotic gals..:)]

[JustAmy]

Didn't catch your name sir. But an evening out sounds exciting.

What shall I wear .... jeans or my new gown?

[LadyX]

"What shall I wear .... jeans or my new gown?"

Definitely the red gown...had in mind a little fancy dancin'...

(They don't call me "Twinkletoes" for nuthin'..:)

[luvie]

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER!

[snugs]

Hello everyone

[snugs]

Like the outfits billie

[luvie]

You look so cute in your little outfit, Snugs! The dollies are so much fun!

[LadyX]

Come to think of it, not only am I a veteran of the military,
but was a military daughter - military wife - military mother -
and these days am a military grandmother!

[deadhead]

Happy that everyone is wearing red to show their support for our troops, thank you for the outfits Billie :-)

Lovely tables, Meg and LUV W. Blessings to the families of our troops also.

The Mayor, I like both the white and blue backgrounds. And, I am getting ready to do some caulking in my bathroom and really appreciate your website!

Diver Dave, congrats on getting your wonderful letter published!

Some of my responses are from other threads, yikes...always a day late and a dollar short :-)

Wishing all a happy weekend

[luvie]

My dad was in the army, my hubby and son both in the Air Force...but you have just about everyone beat! LOL!

[luvie]

Hi! Ya look mighty cute in that little outfit. Seems like jeans are the dress code of the day, huh? Good day for them.

[deadhead]

"Seems like jeans are the dress code of the day"

:-) Yes, they are. And that's exactly what I wore today to work, jeans and a red sweater. (I don't have to dress up for my job)

[snugs]

How is this one Billie will I do - not sure about the hair though ;0)

[luvie]

Lucky you...we have to dress up. *sigh* At least we don't have to wear suits....just dress pants or skirts and sweaters or blouses.

[snugs]

They remind me of the cut out paper ones that I had as a child.

[deadhead]

Yes, it makes life a lot easier and is a lot cheaper :-)

P.S. Love your tagline

[luvie]

Only they don't tear up and you can dress and redress them with a lot more choices of outfits...hair...everything! I love just putting outfits together and then just deleting it all! LOL!

[Diver Dave]

Pardon my late arrival. All those snow scenes yesterday prompted me to go out capturing some video of some "efficient" snow removal crews.

See what happens when the Dems call the shots in our Blue State?
