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!

Two weeks ago I posted "The Last Days of Summer", featuring the Finest Guys, which of course prompted the Finest Girls to ask, "When are you going to feature us?"

Well, today's the day, Girls. And oh, so Pretty in Pink everyone is!
      ~ Billie   

Gentlemen, start your engines! Not just another pretty face, these are all the girls you've loved before.....the little redhaired girl with green eyes and a dimple in her chin; the perky blonde whose ponytail bounced when she walked; that little brunette with the turned-up nose and laughing eyes....they're all here and more. Which ones made your little-boy hearts do flipflops?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is there a little girl in the whole world who doesn't have a fascination for kittens, pretty birds, and......teddy bears!

And maybe it's a Texas thang, but show me a little girl who's never dreamed of being a cowgirl at least once in her life. Something about those cowboy boots and that hat! :)

The seasons, they are a'changing. Leaves are turning bright orange, gold, red......but whatever the season, the Finest FRiends are constant.

This group of Ohio/West Virginia FReepers are about to have their second reunion, getting together for lunch and a whole bunch of hugs next month. Stay tuned for pictures. :)

Finally, did someone say we should have a Tea Party? I say, "Let's!" Put on your Finest outfit, don your favorite chapeau, and come join the party already in progress.

Tea Party Etiquette

• Remember to say, "Please" and "No thank you."
• Place your napkin on your lap.
• Keep your lips closed when you are eating.
• Take one of each foods you are offered.
• Place your used teaspoon on the saucer under your teacup.
• Say your goodbyes and thank yous when you leave the party.

Have a Wonderful Weekend!

I figured as much because I was thinking the same thing. I've run my butt off today. Oh, BTW I wrecked the van. Well actually I ran the side of it into the house and wrecked the van and the house. Jack has been very sweet about it. I think he's happy because he told me several times that I couldn't handle the van and (you know me) I insisted that I could handle it just fine. How was I to know that the rear wouldn't follow the front end when I headed out the driveway?

Nan and I are the same age group, Meg.
Had to clean my room Saturday morning to earn the 25 cents to go to the matinee and cheer the good guys - it was 5 cents to get in, and the rest for candy, plural.

Other than that, we had only radio, of course, and no television!
Comic books and the funnies in the paper - - I still want to know what happened to Jungle Joy, whose plane was lost in South America - Smilin' Jack's wife.....

[WVNan]

Good night to both my Sistahs. God watch over ye.

[LadyX]

Hope to see you tomorrow evening, Nan - know your day will be more than busy!

Good night, everyone - - -

The war drives!I remember when the admission went up to 12cents!Inflation!Stamp collecting was big and my favorite thing to do was to make paper dolls from out of date pattern catalogues.

Adorable picture! It reminded me of a pic I took of my oldest granddaughter a few years ago. Unfortunately, I was just learning how to use the new camera and the lighting is all off on mine. I cropped and reduced the size of the example pic:

[MEG33]

So darling!

[Calpernia]

Goodnight to the Finest!

[MEG33]

Good night,sweet dreams.

[Calpernia]

Why do I have the feeling you will be saying goodnight to us as we come on to say goodmorning again :))

Night Meg :)

[MEG33]

I've been a good girl (mostly) this week!

[Mama_Bear]

Well, I would like to say that I am shocked that I am your favorite niece, but I always knew you had impeccable taste!

LOL. Well, as long as my other nieces don't lurk on FR, I'm okay. ;-)

Have a ton of fun at the rally and the tailgate party! Wish I was there to taste Daddio's tri-tip!

We will. Just now got home from the dinner after the rally, and now I am ready to head off to bed.

((((((((scubachick)))))))))))

Nite all, sweet dreams :) See you tomorrow.

Coach has won his 500th football game - he is still the winningest coach in high school history!!!!! GREEN WAVE RULES!!!!!!!!!

[dixie sass]

We missed you too! Don't you just love the beautiful outfits that Billie gave us for the tea party?

[dixie sass]

Free? Banned? Aqua, you are teasing aren't you?

[dixie sass]

Are you coming to CPAC again? I hope so.

[dixie sass]

How precious!

[dixie sass]

Was supposed to have had my certificate for substitute teaching by now...

Guess that the Lord wants me to do other things.

[dixie sass]

Billie can we do a tea party again? Receipts and such? It has been fun, thank you!
