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

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. : )

"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.
I received this in my email June 10th, 2006 - the author is unknown.
I am wearing red today and every Friday ~ Billie

:) Thank you!
How's your weather? I thought the news said you had some ice in your state yesterday too. It's just an icy mess now. The roads look better. I hope the supermarket parking lot is clear of ice. On 3 occasions, in the past, I've fallen down. Not good luck with ice. ;) I get nervous now. I don't want to ever fall again. :)

Whoopie! the music once again! Love it & thank you for the work in doing it & considering bringing it over for weekend so we can all enjoy it every time we visit FR.. can play music while we read pings, post, do email etc.
Next couple days are busy.. Lots going on.. including Tuba Christmas on Sunday. It is a nationwide program. Google it & find one in your area. Where I go in Akron there are normally about 500 instruments in the Tuba family that play.. they must pay to participate & the admission for we concert goers is FREE!. If you have never gone before, it is really fun & something young & Old enjoy.. some sing along if you like..Very festive & bring bells (you will know why as the concert progresses)
Here is a pix of my brother's home in Oklahoma city.They have been w/o power since Monday & were told it would be a week to 10 days most likely until it is restored. I recall my years of living in NC & the horrors of the ice storms. We rarely get them here in Ohio but are regularly hammered with blizzards in winter.

Oh No, that is awful they are out of electric for so long. We had ice yesterday. Not near as bad as they have. They have to worry about their pipes etc being affected by cold. I hope they all have somewhere nice, cozy and warm to stay.
This was my after though.... wish I posted the music at the top of the thread though. I hope people will see it here.
That sounds terrific Dolly. I will look on line and see if there is something like this nearby. What a good time you will have. Make sure you tell us about your day of Tuba on Sunday!

No ice here..It will freeze Sunday but no rain in the forecast that day ..Do be careful..I broke my knee I twisted it so bad in a slip on ice. I was in my thirties and going down the stairs was an adventure for years. I still hold on tight to a bannister .

You really hurt yourself with that fall. That’s what I fear. I will wait till it warms up before leaving. Hopefully it does. ;)
Snow here for Sunday. Maybe a snow storm. It is nice that it’s a Sunday and we all can stay home.
