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 200,000 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

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. : )

"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.
I received this in my email June 10th, 2006 - the author is unknown.
I am wearing red today and every Friday ~ Billie

Billie, I see you posted some scrumptious glazed donuts this morning (and me on the Atkin's diet, LOL!!). Probably not planned, but very appropriate that you brought them today. :-)
This has turned out to be a BEAUTIFUL day! I wish the same for all my Finest FRiends. Have a perfect weekend, each and every one of you!
GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY!!!

Damp, Rainy Friday Night Poetry
Friendship
As a Kitten, all that I see does belong to me
Until I find something else that piques my Curiosity
Whether it's a floating mote of dust or a comfortable Magazine
That makes an exceptional place for a nap upon the Couch, unseen
Pausing to refresh before traveling up and down and here and there
And after each adventure, I tell all to Rollo, my makeshift Teddy Bear
I rescued Rollo after several days of My Little Pretty One ignoring him
An odd fate for a Bed Mate so majestically sleek and trim
He knows all about the shiny Things in the Kitchen and Down Stairs
On those occasions that I decide to take him with me, he doesn't care
To cause an interruption or create an unsightly scene
Rollo just watches silently from a distance though wide eyes of green
Nor does he complain or resist, should I suddenly play too rough
My Humans call Rollo a "Tiger", but he's just my friend who's full of fluff

From The Cave
We stare morosely at the rain,
As we sit in the mouth of the den.
There’ll be no game to flush,
No tracks to smell, so then …
It’s back into the labyrinth,
Where darkened comfort waits,
And soon enough, a meal appears,
On clean and shiny plates.
The animals who live here,
Accommodate our pack,
For we stand guard, protecting them,
That’s how we pay them back.
