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.

You can get that in a bumper sticker. I got the picture in e-mail & googled it so I could post it here (don't know how to post pictures from my e-mail). While looking for it I found it in a bumper sticker.

Hi Ya There... Gee Bee!

We took a 2 hour lunch. We called ahead and picked up sandwiches from Jimmy John's, then went to the Cheesecake Factory and bought our very rich desserts, then came back to work to eat them. I leave here at 4:30 my time which was another 3 hours and 50 minutes at the time I wrote that.

It is really gorgeous!..

[Billie]

Okay, girls, you know that next we have to have something to wear when we do lunch at the club. :)

[luvie]

Too CUTE, Billie. That probably means I need to go shopping...again! Yay! ;o)

[Billie]

Yes, we must have daytime dress up - you know, for when we're at a style show fundraiser for the troops.

Hats optional. :)

[dutchess]

Hmmmm...home from work, and ready to change for a night out on the town. Decisions....decisions... (We finest gals sure are lucky to have such a wonderful "wardrobe coordinator - also known as Dr. Billie :o)

[luvie]

She certainly has dressed everyone for every occasion around here, hasn't she! LOL!

[MEG33]

Smashing new gown, dutchess!

[Billie]

(We finest gals sure are lucky to have such a wonderful "wardrobe coordinator - also known as Dr. Billie :o)

It's like playing paper dolls all over again. I have too much fun with it. I've got heads and bodies and clothes all over my picture folders!

Thank you all for your lovely Friday graphics and pictures and reminders to pray for our troops!
