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!
~ Billie, Mama_Bear, dansangel, dutchess, Aquamarine, FreeTheHostages ~

To Our FReeper FRiends: We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. We thought we'd kick back on the weekends and simply review the features of the week. If you missed seeing them and want to say hello there now, feel free to click on the link to that particular thread. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today and tomorrow, please feel free to do that also. One of us will always be around to see the welcome mat is still out, and maybe even put fresh flowers on the table. ~ Billie

Hi finest sistahs...Loved having a vacation but...to quote "The Wizard of Oz"...there's no place like home. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Heading out to play in the flower beds (or should I say weed beds!)

[Mama_Bear]

Good morning MEG.

I see Bill Simon has withdrawn from the California Governer's race.

Thanks for the info.........I haven't had the news on yet this morning. Did they say if he is giving his support to any of the other candidates?

I remember those two songs! Mama taught us the words. Wish that I could remember them all, lol. Fun songs. The first election that I remember is Eisenhower's. "I Like Ike", lol.

Congratulations on the Spelling Bee!

Have been to D.C. many times, but the most memorial was my 12th year. My little brownie camera got a workout that summer. Took a picture of a fire engine speeding down the street and it didn't even blur.

Have never been to the White House but someday I will and not to sleep in Lincolns bed either! I use to daydream about being First Lady since I couldn't be the Queen or married to Prince Charles. Of course, I daydreamed about many things then...

[dutchess]

Oh...what a sweet puppy picture!

[MEG33]

No news other than his withdrawal.Good morning again!
