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!

I don't know about Gizmo, Weinie. I can't get him to stop playing around long enough to see if he would take your campaign seriously. I think he has cabin fever from that kennel.

[Calpernia]

Oh now Jackie is here too:

WEINIE - sob - SAY IT ISN'T SO !!!!!

Doggone it - yer just another dadgum politician ??

[lonestar]

Shhh, hot gossip, just between you and me....Do you believe that FR has a poll up about support for gov of CA? AND they didn't include Weinie! This is an outrage!

From the heart of my bottom, er, bottom of my heart, I can't tell you how upset I am to be left out of the poll.

I'm more qualified than most of the candidates!

And more honest! (I admit I'm for sale to the highest bidder.)

And, yes! I'm out digging for dirt! This did it.

[Aquamarine]

LOL! I found that pic at a dachshund site while Googling.

[lonestar]

WEINIE - sob - SAY IT ISN'T SO !!!!!

Doggone it - yer just another dadgum politician ??

Okay. It isn't so. (paws crossed) Politics is a dirty business, Gert. But you're my friend. I still am trying to figure out--are you stuffed or a blow-up?

Have you raised your assigned campaign fund contributions? Remember, we discussed your 10% kick-back.

You do want to be a member of the "Hot Dog Club"--forget it! We'll think up something else for you. Purple People Eaters or something. Back to you later.

>>>>we discussed your 10% kick-back

*GASPS*

Gertie is dirty????

Show us a picture of Gilligan.

[Billie]

You poor baby. :) Nagging was the last thing on my mind when I said hello.

But since you mentioned it.......are you ready?! :)

You silly girl - MamaBear is the ONLY one who didn't run her opening threads by me to check for the longest time! Daisy had never done 'tables' before when we first started either. You think I'm just going to throw you to the 'wolves' your first few times?!

[Mama_Bear]

Such a cute, fun thread! I am arriving late, but took the time to read the entire thread. Enjoyed the pet's vacation stories, all the graphics, photos and cartoons.

Aren't pets wonderful? This one looks like my sweet Labrador, Prince.

[FreeTheHostages]

"You think I'm just going to throw you to the 'wolves' your first few times?!"

HEY!! WHAT'S WRONG WITH WOLVES??!! I would love to be thrown to a wolf.

I'm just fine, actually. I'm just joking. My first one will be a disaster, of course -- but that's a little hint on the subject matter of it. :)

Throw me. I insist upon it.

[Mama_Bear]

Mama_bear, you're the veteran. How do I handle this kind of nagging?

Well, you could try not logging on....but I have found that cure worse than ailment, as they say. The withdrawal just ain't worth it. LOL!

[LadyX]

">>>>we discussed your 10% kick-back

*GASPS*

Gertie is dirty????"

Gertie Dirty??
NO WAY, Scalpernia - - the "we" was lonestar and Weinie; not I...
no no no no no
not Gertie . . .

[Mama_Bear]

We lost our oldest cat 3 weeks ago.

I'm so sorry. I know how hard it is to lose a beloved pet. They become such a part of your life. If you have other cats, they will help fill the void some, but still, it's never easy losing a pet. :-(

I'm thinkin' beach run!

The beach is too hot for my superfurball until about mid January. I, however, think it is a great place to try out the new truck.

"Well, you could try not logging on....but I have found that cure worse than ailment, as they say. The withdrawal just ain't worth it. LOL!"

Hee hee. For the record, I'm just pretending to complain about the working conditions. Billie's not nagging me. But indeed I am doing my first one on my own. Mischievously, mysteriously, decidedly on my own.

We Vermonters are nothing if not stubborn. I do expect the design to be an amusing disaster. :) Want to see it so far? Shhh -- but you can't show it Billie. Hee hee.

[lonestar]

Gilligan looks sweet. Give him a pat for us.

You're doing good! Get some rest and do better tomorrow!

Weinie

[lonestar]

Gertie is dirty????

*GASP* my paw!

It was your idea to give kickbacks for fund-raisers. It has been one of your best ideas. Keep up the good work!
