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 100,000 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
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

Welcome to another
Fabulous Friday at the 'Finest',

YIKES!! It's....















Yes, it's just...



Superstition n. A belief or practice resulting from ignorance, fear of the unknown, trust in magic or chance, or a false conception of causation; an irrational abject attitude of mind toward the supernatural, nature, or God resulting from superstition; a notion maintained despite evidence to the contrary.

Some fun, "superstitious" websites....

Unusual Trivia Collection - Superstitions
Cat Folklore and Superstitions
Maritime Superstitions

and, one of my favorite
Stevie Wonder songs....

"Superstition"

***What silly superstitions
did you grow up with?***





Have a wonderful

My mother said we were nuts because most normal people would have waited till the next .. especially since it was Valentine's day ..

We like to be different .. LOL

But....but...you're gonna see him in person tonight. You skeered of Jim? Scairdybear. : )

Stop that! What I did was inquire about your music NOW, so I wouldn't have to do it LATER. (And, so he wouldn't take off in the other direction when I arrive.) LOL!

I have got to go or we'll be late for the rally.
