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.

[EsmeraldaA]

You look great! ;o)

Great pics of Condi & the dapper grey haired gent,Britain's Forgein Secretary. Love the smiles & laid back manner from both!

Hi Dolly!

[snugs]

We are very fortunate in that we have a great local bakery that sells lovely quiche as well as all the normal cakes and bread you would expect.

I did not want to do much in the way of preparing a meal tonight after stock taking at work so I cheated and bought a quiche. It was lovely.

Here is our bakers.

[snugs]

I don't know about the Brown's shirt but when Jack Straw visited the States last October, Condi went one better and invited him to a game rather than just a training session and tour of the stadium.

You are making me hungry..Yummy!

[luvie]

Yummy..your meal sounds really yummy. I like quiche! So ya like American ranch dressing, huh? It is mighty good!

[MEG33]

I love quiche..any meal!

[MEG33]

Thanks for the pics.

[Billie]

Looks like we had steak for lunch - yummmmm. No dinner tonight after a lunch like that. :)

[Billie]

Hope Christian has a fantastic birthday today - better not put that vacuum away yet if the party's in your house. :)

[Billie]

I am not aware of wearing red for the military in England but then again how many people in the States apart from people involved in this forum and other things linked to the military would be?

I am sad to say I don't see a lot of red when I go out on Friday. But we'll continue to wear it at the Finest as long as it takes. :)

[Billie]

Thank you all for the compliments on the pledge graphic today. I actually made and used it on the thread I did when Dubya delivered his State of the Union Address a couple of months ago, but had forgotten about it until I browsed through my file of pledge graphics. :) Glad I posted it again. :)

[Billie]

WONDERFUL pictures of Condi with your Foreign Secretary there in Britain!

Gosh, I wish she would run for President in '08. And even *gosh-er*, please, please, please do not let McCain get the nomination. :(

Hi Billie!

I'm wearing red today!

[snugs]

The ranch dressing is yummy. It is very similar to what we call garlic dressing but less garlic flavour and more creamy.

[Billie]

Hi, there, li'l Sistah - you're a cutie in your red and grey. :)

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Sorry Billie, I got too busy to post, enjoy your weekend everyone!
