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

My account has never been correct. (with payment postings)

Nope, neither was mine. I tried several times to find out how much I owed them. No one ever replied to my e-mails, so I never paid them. That was about two years ago. I have to wonder how many other people aren't paying because they don't know how much they owe. Paul definitely is not a businessman.

AMERICANS WHO HAVE GIVEN THEIR LIVES IN SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY

I am hopping to keep thid thread going.

[The Mayor]

It’s time to ask who would like to stay on my Daily Bread Ping list, I will now ask Amy if I can post on her Amy’s Place threads everyday.

It’s a great way to start the day and it has been my deep honor to post it here at the Finest for so many years.

Memorial Day is coming up and that would be a perfect time to post a Memorial Day Military Tribute thread here too.

[mathluv]

I would like to stay on your list. I often share with my daughter (she is not a freeper).

[The Mayor]

OK, Gotcha. Thank you.

[DollyCali]

I’ll come chase you with a stick if you take me off your list Rus!!!

I think Amy & Lori will be very open to your posting the cupa every day.. and a military tribute on Mondays.. and dutchess doing JH2 (just a simple table & maybe one or two graphics)..

this is rather like a marriage.. putting two things together & picking out what is good/works & what doesn’t

Every day there is warm fuzzy so we don’t have to worry about that!

[The Mayor]

I saw your posts and you two are on the new ping list for the Daily Bread. Thank you.

[The Mayor]

I’ll come chase you with a stick if you take me off your list Rus!!!

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I could see you doing that too Dolly! Your on.

[jaycee]

[Gabz]

It’s time to ask who would like to stay on my Daily Bread Ping list,

Please keep me on your list, Rus. I don't often respond, but I read your devotions every day and you do not know just how often they often make my day.

Thank you all, The Finest, you truly have been.

[Kitty Mittens]

Please Keep me on your Ping List, Mr. Mayor! Thank you for Posting the Devotionals for our Lord's Lambs.

I Love the Finest, and Hope it will be Back Again Soon. When I Became a Freeper, our Lady Maggie Took me Under her Wing Here at the Finest and Taught me how to Post Pics, how to Use Font Colors and Sizes, and even how to Use Email. Her Beautiful, Caring, and Christ-Honoring Soul Made me Feel at Home Here, as did All of you, my Finest FRiends, and I Love you All Very Much.

Here is my Favorite Graphic our Beloved Lady Maggie Gave me when she was Teaching me how to Post Pics:
