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.

Morning, Meekie! Good coffee. :)

You're welcomed ! Carl deserves all the credit, tho! He made it this morning.

[MeekOneGOP]

Looks like it's being FReeped pretty good!

It is so like the Democrats to only be worried about the upcoming election instead of our country. Those 'rats.

Yep! That poll turned around right after that article was posted.

Tom da$$chle will be stripped of his rank after November 5th this year.

[lodwick]

Nice work with da'hole - thanks.

[LadyX]

That looks like an oil painting, loddy - frightening but beautiful colors ~ ~ ~

[whoever]

We get to meet Fellow FReepers and we have fun doing it!

Yes, we do. I am very grateful for AFF. Such wonderful people gather here in a real family way. It truly is amazing.

Thanks for the beautiful flowers.

[LadyX]

We're so thankful for your return, whoever, and grateful for your lovely words of wisdom.
May you continue to heal rapidly.

Love and hugs,

[whoever]

we are thanking God for your recovery from whatever felled you,

So am I, Lady.

I want to thank you for the beautiful thoughts in your post yesterday and again today.. They reached deep in me.

[whoever]

Thank you, Diver. It is good to be back with friends again.

Go A's ( I hope that is your second favourite)

[LadyX]

Hello, Valerie!
You have no idea how we all look forward to your offerings, bringing to us new and beautiful perspectives on the world around us.
Each one is a feast for the eyes and soul - and a treasured gift.

Thank you.

[whoever]

God bless you who, today and always

Thank you for your post. It meant so much to me. I am glad the music and words reached you. It was so meaningful to me.

Thank you for your prayers, too. I have much faith in prayer. I have seen great results.

[whoever]

..wildfire continues to burn near the town..

That is an awesome picture, lodwick.

Just think of the horrible story it is telling. Such a tragic loss.

[lodwick]

[whoever]

I didn't post your entire joke book; just half of it

Thanks. Please let me know which half......I certainly would not want to repost a joke!!!

Heaven forbid.

[lodwick]

Sure-fire pick-me up.

Works every time. ;-)

[whoever]

Thank you for your greeting, prayers and welcome-back. I missed your wonderfully scrumptious shrimp plates.

[whoever]

Hi, Pippin:

Thank you for all your greetings and prayers yesterday. It means so much to me.

[whoever]

You take care, too, you hear?

Yes, m'am, I certainly do, and I will, to be sure. I would not want to be deleted here.

Thanks for your concerns and well wishes.

[Pippin]

Howdy,Who!

You're welcome, It's good to have you back!

But, you take care of yourself, now.

[whoever]

Thanks. I certainly will do that.

[whoever]

..I can't imagine anyone missing you as much as I have..

Thank you for the beautiful post and your prayers and concerns.

I have missed all of the Finest here more than I ever could have thought.

God is, indeed, good and faithful.
