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. : )

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.

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

Thank you The Mayor :)

Please, always keep me on your ping lists.

Have a Terrific Day!

[The Mayor]

I will, have no fear.... : )

[MEG33]

It is indeed.
This morning is so beautiful I’d love to package it for gifts to my FRiends..It’s 68 but will reach 94! I better get out in the cool while it lasts.

Thank you for this beautiful lesson! Sometimes we are all guilty of judging before we know the truth! I would have probably thought the same that the man did when the other car rushed off! But we all know God says, “Judge ye not”. He is good and forgives us everytime we ask!

Mr. Mayor, you use to link us to that first Bible reading and it isn’t linked anymore. Is there a reason for that? I always went there to read the scriptures. Yes, I know I can look it up on my own but its better to click and go there~~LOL~~

[The Mayor]

68 is nice gardening weather. 94... that gets nasty.

[jaycee]

Well I must admit, I did take a little nap in the afternoon! I think we were trying to stay as long as possible because it will not be here every day! I did go to Amy’s this morning and post a picture but I do have much to do today.

The pool guy will be here to open the pool today...oh, dear! I think I told you the ducks get on the cover each spring and poop..one end of the cover slipped into the pool and some of the poop must have gotten in. We will kill it all by overdosing with chlorine and algaecide, thank goodness!

See ya’ll later when I catch up.

[jaycee]

That post is just darling...I love it, G.B.!

[jaycee]

I love that, Dita.....we get some winners sometimes! I wondered when his funeral was...LOL~~

[The Mayor]

I will again, I was checking it one day and it went no where, maybe it was just a bad link.

READ: Hebrews 4:11-16

[jaycee]

Meg, my bunnies sit under the feeders and eat the seed off the ground. They love that seed....I just don’t want to buy bunny food!

[jaycee]

Thanks again....its done!

[spotbust1]

Beautiful post. Thanks Mayor.

I am a bit of a lurker here, but would you put me on your ping list? I always enjoy your posts.

Thanks, God Bless.

[The Mayor]

Absolutely, I just added your name.
Thank you.
