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 TGIF at the Finest!   We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. From the beginning, we've been kicking back on Saturdays and Sundays and simply reviewing the features of the week; our weekend threads now start on Friday and continue through Sunday. If you missed seeing any of this week's threads and want to say hello there now, just click on the link for that particular day. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today through Sunday, please feel free to do that also. One of us will try to be around to see the welcome mat is still out, put the coffee pot on, and maybe even bring fresh flowers for the table. : )

Opinions by our own 'King of Ping' Every Thursday at the Finest The guy's good, folks!

"Wear Red" Friday

You will soon see a lot of people wearing Red on Fridays. Here's why..... The Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like yourself, and all their friends, simply want to recognize that Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is starting Friday and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red-blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED.

Word of mouth, press, TV -- let's see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University. If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED - and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red! So let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! WE LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE, BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE. FOR US, THEIR BLOOD RUNS RED!! GOD BLESS AMERICA.

Hi, dutchess - talking about activity after you left last night on yesterday's thread...

When you and wolfie were talking about his romantic fever and your committing adultry, I thought those were the two cutest posts of the day, and his was so typically "wolfie", even at that young age!

It reminded me of the birthday thread we did three years ago - and when I went to get the poem I'd written, I looked again at the "cards" from all of you, and you did one of your very first "table" birthday cards as a hostess on that thread! Do you remember it? :)

[Mama_Bear]

Okay, now I absolutely must get this house ready for company which will be arriving in less than five hours. Lots of time, I am sure you are thinking......but not if you saw my list of things to do. LOL!

I will talk to you all later. HUGS to all.

[Billie]

You bring out the best in ALL of us!!!!

Well, then, I feel it's my duty to tell you I have a new nickname, compliments of Purple Mountains Maj! :) Just call me "Billie, Dolling"

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Amy, you and PrissyMissy look very cute! :]

Have a great weekend.

DO I REMEMBER IT???? I was so darn intimidated...doing a card for our famous mr. popular wolfie as a total newbie. I was stressed for days :o) (wanting to keep up to the "sistahs" standards plus please our dear wolfie!)

[dutchess]

Be thinking of you as you fly tomorrow! Good luck!

On each element such as "hair", "background" etc., when you go to the "O" choice at the top, the first square is blank and if you click on it those elements should go away. It took me forever to figure that out. I had one that was just loaded with "stuff"! LOL!

[luvie]

In case you didn't see it yet, Dolly reposted the doll site on Post#83. Be vewwy, vewwy caweful...it is ADDICTIVE! :o)

[luvie]

[ST.LOUIE1]

Yikes! He's on his way to Texas! Have the door open!!!

I couldn't resist. :)

Ohhhhhhh.....oh.....oh! You're prettier than ever!

Raised wolfie's hair on the back of his neck you did. : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

You look mighty cute in purple,

Awwwwwww...........thank you, louie. Thank you for the sweet smooooch, too. You've got my hair standing on end. LOL!

It should, wolfie's been smoochin' on you all day. LOL

Hmmmmmm.........I think I know which one you are talking about.
Tell you what, if I go dancing tonight, I will stop by the Finest and show off my dancing dress. How's that? :-)

Can't wait! : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

Purple Mtn: ..."Billie, Dolling!"
Billie: "Hey, I like it. LOL"

Wolfie, you're slipping! I have a new nickname. :)

Wolfie would probably call you Billie, Dolly.....that ain't gonna work. LOL

[ST.LOUIE1]

Oh, there is that dapper bear that just melts my heart!
He's my favorite, but you already know that. :-)

Yep! And he's crazy about *you*. : )

He doesn't visit too often, he's a shy one. : )
