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 Finest Friends. JohnHuang2 has a much needed week off so we decided it was time for a little pet humor repeat of what our furry friends might say to God. Please feel free to share your furry friends stories, jokes OR the obligatory "show off your furry friend" pictures!!!! ENJOY!

DEAR GOD FROM THE DOG

Dear God, When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it the same old story?

Dear God, Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We dogs love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the 'Chrysler Eagle' the 'Chrysler Beagle'?

Dear God, If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?

Dear God, We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?

Dear God, More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.

Dear God, Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom if ever, smell one another?

Dear God, When we get to the Pearly Gates, do we have to shake a paw to get in?

Dear God, Why do my owners go to the bathroom in the best freshwater bowl in the house?

Dear God, Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?

Dear God, Let me give you a list of a few things I must remember to be a good dog :

I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it, or after they throw it up.

I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell.

The sofa is not a face towel; neither are Mom and Dad's laps.

The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration.

I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

Sticking my nose into someone's crotch is not an acceptable way of saying 'hello.'

I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table.

I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house.

I will not throw up in the car.

I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt across the carpet.

The cat is not a squeaky toy; so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing.

And finally...Dear God from the Cat

Dear God, in case I haven't said so....thanks for finding us such special homes on earth especially for those of us lucky to live with Freepers. Life is good! MEOW!!!!

Dear God,

How was I supposed to know that Mom's book wasn't a chewtoy? It was lying on the couch in plain sight!

Love,
Thena (Psycho Dog)

I'd post of picture of the crazy one, but alas it's not being hosted anywhere.

[silent_jonny]

Howdy, Purple!

[Billie]

Dutchess, this is the sweetest thread. I just love these kinds, and the quotes and illustrations never get old! I actually only remember seeing a 'few' of these before. New pics and some new quotes, too?

[Majie Purple]

Hi Si...Very cool! Thanks!

[dutchess]

I just love these kinds, and the quotes and illustrations never get old! I actually only remember seeing a 'few' of these before. New pics and some new quotes, too?

Nope but it had been awhile plus inserted it all into the new background YOU did for me and some "massaging", font changes etc. With quite a number of newbie FINEST FRIENDS felt okay doing a modified re-run! (((hugs))))

[dutchess]

Dear God, How was I supposed to know that Mom's book wasn't a chewtoy? It was lying on the couch in plain sight! Love, Thena (Psycho Dog)

LOL...Codee (our beloved sheltie, now at rainbow bridge, did a real number on our family bible. But I smile as I look at the chewed up corners... :o)

I'd post of picture of the crazy one, but alas it's not being hosted anywhere.

I'll freepmail my email addy or freepmail me a link and I'ld be happy to upload and post the picture of "psycho dog" :o)

[Majie Purple]

Uh... would you rather I call you Jonny all the time or is my occasional, Si shrthnd ok w/ u?
It's just that Si rhymes with hi!

[silent_jonny]

I like "Jonny" best.

"Si" makes me think of this guy:

Sy Sperling, founder of the Hair Club for Men

LOL!

[RikaStrom]

LOL. Luckily, she didn't get the bibles. She's learned that just because things are in her reach that she can't eat everything. She can reach just about everything so I am glad we learned that little lesson with only the demise of one book. :-)

[Majie Purple]

Oh yikes!!!! Jonny it is!!!!
I can so see why you prefer it...
