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!

Kids Say The Darndest Things!


Most grade school teachers agree that kids say the darndest things. Here are some examples:
The future of "I give" is "I take."
The parts of speech are lungs and air.
The inhabitants of Moscow are called Mosqitoes.
A census taker is man who goes from house to house increasing the population.
Define H2O and CO2. H2O is hot water and CO2 is cold water.
A virgin forest is a forest where the hand of man has never set foot.
The general direction of the Alps is straight up.
A city purifies its water supply by filtering the water then forcing it through an aviator.
Most of the houses in France are made of plaster of Paris.



The people who followed the Lord were called the 12 oppossums.
The spinal column is a long bunch of bones.
The head sits on the top and you sit on the bottom.
We do not raise silk worms in the United States, because we get our silk from rayon. He is a larger worm and gives more silk.
One of the main causes of dust is janitors.
A scout obeys all to whom obedience is due and respects all duly constipated authorities.
One by-product of raising cattle is calves.
To prevent head colds, use an agonizer to spray into the nose until it drips into the throat.
The four seasons are salt, pepper, mustard and vinegar.



The climate is hottest next to the Creator.
Oliver Cromwell had a large red nose, but under it were deeply religious feelings.
The word trousers is an uncommon noun because it is singular at the top and plural at the bottom.
Syntax is all the money collected at the church from sinners.
The blood circulates through the body by flowing down one leg and up the other.
In spring, the salmon swim upstream to spoon.
Iron was discovered because someone smelt it.
In the middle of the 18th century, all the morons moved to Utah.
A person should take a bath once in the summer, not so often in the winter




Out of the mouth of babes! Have a GREAT Thursday...feel free to share special stories (AND pictures of the little ones in your life) ...and thanks for stopping in at the FINEST!

We tried.

When the house was sold, the guy who bought the house brought in a bulldozer to shove the rock aside, then he hired rock drills to bust it up.
(He also cut down every tree in the yard.)

First, Mom and Dad made him as a symbol of their love, and then Dad put a seed in my Mom's stomach, and Luke grew in there. He ate for nine months through an umbrella cord."

Priceless, LOL!!!

I am going to shut down now and say good night. Seems like I have been at this computer most of the day.

Good night, and please God, bless my friends, Nan and Victoria. HUGS!

Thanks, Victoria.

Marissa was talking about kissing and I told her she could not kiss a boy until she was either engaged or married. She looked at me and asked "Is engaged a date?"

Looks like I have my work ahead of me. :)

We'd left the trees in place because they kept the building cooler in summer and kept the wind from buffeting the building in winter.

So this guy comes into the country, buys the house because it's in the country, and then he turns around and makes it look like the suburbs that he said he hated.

*chuckle*

We had a fire place inside, and this genius looks at the ceiling and asks, "Was there a fire in here?"
Hello?
Fireplace?
LOL.
It was quite interesting..

It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them.
- Anita, age 9

Tell your wife that she looks pretty even if she looks like a truck.
-Ricky, age 10

Holy smokes . . . I think Anita and Ricky were made for each other. LOL.
