A Few of FR's Finest..... ......Every Day
FR is a Treasure Trove of talented, compassionate, patriotic, wonderful people who gather every day to discuss the latest news and issues; salute and support our military and our leaders; tell a few jokes; learn a new word; write poetry; pray for those in need; and congratulate those who are deserving. Thank you, Jim Robinson, for giving us the vehicle in which we can express ourselves.
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. I can remember lurking when there were only a few regulars who posted, and now there are over 60,000 who have registered for posting privileges. 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 November 11, 2001
So many people have written me since my original Veteran's Day Tribute, asking how they, or a loved one, could be included in that tribute. Since I can no longer add the photos to the body of the thread, I've been including them in additional posts as I received enough to make another collage.
Still that doesn't seem to be enough. I think there's never been a better nor more appropriate time to keep the faces of our own Veterans and Active Military in front of FReepers--every day! That's why I wanted to do yet another Daily Thread .....ABOUT FReepers .....and FOR FReepers. But not only about our Military FReepers; for all FReepers! Wouldn't it be nice to get to know a few of the other FReepers as well? That's why, in addition to seeing FR's Finest Military Personnel every day, I thought it might be fun to feature a different FReeper (or FReepers) each day. If you would like to be pictured, or know someone who would, please FReepmail me and we'll turn the spotlight - on YOU - for the day!
And do let me know if you'd like your picture added to the groups of Veterans/Active Military below. I will keep this page updated, and continue to add them to the comment section of the original Veteran's Day thread as well.

Thanks for the kind comments, Aqua.
I'm really glad you liked it.
I had a lot of fun making it, even though I used a roll of paper towels trying to keep my monitor clear of a mysterious mist that kept appearing on it.

Gunner, I went by Academy and saw that the Clay Army is reinforcing their ranks!!
There's boxes and boxes of those things just waiting to create havoc on the American people!
We will definitely have to make a battle plan for next Saturday to include the new weapon.
If they move before then we'll have to act and act fast........say, Monday?

Mom's dog may have been an Old Soul. ;-) You know, I believe you may be right about that.

Great thread today! Thanks, I'm glad you are enjoying the thread.
Did you do your FReep thing across from the post office again today? JustAmy usually pings me to the Missouri FReep thread, but I haven't gotten one yet today. Maybe I missed it or maybe it hasn't been posted yet. I always look forward to the report and photos.
To: onedoug
Hmmm-Hmmm! That was great, MB. Thanks a lot! My pleasure. Please stop by for breakfast and conversation any time. :-)
To: Mama_Bear
Yes we did.
To: Pippin
Louie made me that globe graphic. I should have known it was a creation from our "gif guru". :-)

"I wasn't too dramatic,now, was I?" Well Pippin, you were pretty cool, up until you sat up on your haunches with your little paws - um, hands, up, and panted and rolled your tongue.
I certainly had to spare two shrimp for that performance..:))

I just wanted to tell you before I forget again how much I loved your opening Lights post on 9-11-02. The one that played Angel while George W. was talking in the background. I give that post a 10. Thank you so much! I hope some others were able to listen to it also. I know that some people can't play wav files.
I sure wish I could play them without having to save them to my hard drive. If there is a way of playing them directly from the site (like a midi), I don't know how to do it. Does everyone have to download them onto their computer in order to play them - or is it just me?
To: lodwick
Thanks Lod!
Excellent picture. I love it !
I'm playin' Ketchup again, can you tell? LOL!
Thanks.......
To: Mama_Bear; Aquamarine
I'm one that has to download in ordre to play videos, but I din't have the softwear for it yet.
