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!

Sad for you.

[FreeTheHostages]

Good night Colleen!

[lonestar]

That's one big turtle! Even I wouldn't chase it.

[Mama_Bear]

Billie's not nagging me.

LOL. I knew that. ;-)

I do expect the design to be an amusing disaster. :)

It sounds like it will be fun! Who cares if it is a bit of a disaster? Maybe we can all end up having a huge Finest pillow fight and make a real mess of things. ;-)

Want to see it so far?

YES! I would love to see it!

[deadhead]

Good Night Free, see ya all tomorrow :-)

[Mama_Bear]

What a sweet graphic. Good night Colleen.

[Flyer]

THERE you are!

Dang, I been found. Happens every time I hang out with my handsome man dog. He such a head turner.

[Billie]

Goodnight, Colleen. Your graphic is TOO sweet and adorable!

[Mama_Bear]

Poor Binky, you sure have a time of it in the summer!

I feel like I know you. Must be because of the time I spent with "mom" in preparing for her "Finest Day in the Spotlight" post. She insisted that you have a prominent place in the post and that everyone knew what a talented singer you are. :-)

[Billie]

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.

Nope! I insist upon seeing it before it's posted! I'm funny that way. :)

TOP TEN REASONS BILLIE IS VERY NERVOUS

10. Freezie keeps asking questions about how different shades of lime might appear on the web browser.

9. Freezie keeps confusing the Adobe magic wand with that other thingie on the drop down thing that has something to do with, well, I'm not sure.

8. Next Tuesday is coming and Freezie hasn't even mentioned what her piece will be about.

7. Except to mention something about a "disaster."

6. The posting forum is very very unforgiving.

5. Freezie seems a little too wild for this sort of thing.

4. She seems to want to be thrown to the wolves.

3. Concern that perhaps she is TRYING to get fired?

2. Freezie keeps asking about the difference between a pixel and a pixie.

AND THE NUMBER ONE REASON WHY BILLIE IS VERY NERVOUS

1. Freezie's unsupervised on this one!!

[FreeTheHostages]

"Nope! I insist upon seeing it before it's posted! I'm funny that way. :)"

:P LOL, see post 171 above.

But of course I will show it to you. I'm just entertaining the wolf, since you brought him into it. Want to see an early draft?

[FreeTheHostages]

LOL, if I survive the evening. Hee hee. Apparently they're going to throw me to the wolves. I hope it's a wolf that looks like Wolfie.

[lonestar]

Hi, Bear!

I didn't go on vacation. I don't like it one little bit. I like to ride in the car, too.

I didn't go to obedience school and lonestar says it's dangerous to take me where "normal" dogs go. I like to run away. It's fun to watch lonestar chase me.

lonestar leaves town and I have to stay home and take care of my "Granny."

Poor me. That's why I'm running for governor of California. Change of scenery.

Weinie

[lonestar]

I want to play ball. Forget the campaign!

Weinie

[Mama_Bear]

LOL! Just keep your sense of humor and everything will be okay.

BTW, tables and that "pixie" thing had me totally confused for the longest time. I finally "got" it just about the time I was ready to throw in the towel.

[Billie]

Yep - got an early draft ready to 'throw' to me? :)

Love the Top Ten!

[Calpernia]

WOW! Nice Colleen!

Have a great night.

[Calpernia]

>>>>It was your idea to give kickbacks for fund-raisers. It has been one of your best ideas.

Hush! I am just the behind the scenes instigator!

[Calpernia]

I do expect the design to be an amusing disaster. :)
