I remember coming home after work and being able to read all the articles. Talk about the old days.

Time for me to hit the hay. Long day tomorrow...fun but long. You have a great rest of the night and we’ll see you online tomorrow.

Thank you to our troops everywhere.

How Did You Discover FR?

I was cleaning out a closet and found it behind old shoe boxes.

WELCOME TO

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Connie, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities.
I have been waiting for this question. And, I have an answer! hehe

Now for our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today.....Mostly cloudy and windy with showers developing this afternoon. High 63F. Winds NNE at 15 to 25 mph. Winds could occasionally gust over 40 mph.

~ Tonight..... Rain showers along with windy conditions. Low 59F. Winds NNE at 15 to 25 mph. Chance of rain 90%.

We are in for a windy day. However, we do need the rain.

To answer Connie's question: a very dear friend/former SIL (CelticLass) had discovered it somehow and told me to check it out. I lurked for a week or so until I finally found the Canteen because I wanted to show my support to the troops. And, the rest is history.

Now, I've got to make my rounds before I have to attack my work pile. I've got things to do for the end of the fiscal year and the beginning of the new one.

But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial. Don't change that channel. Put down that remote. Don't leave the room. Keep your eyes on your monitor. Cause...............I'll be bock!

Now remember, the Canteen is ALWAYS

So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ....

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

Howdy Connie.
I discovered FR back in ‘98 through a link from Drudge, believe it or not. :)

I used to read this Christian BBS, now defunct, and posters used to always talk about freepers. I had to ask what a freeper was. That lead to my discover of freerepublic.com.

Good morning to everyone at the Canteen.
It's a cool and dry 72º here this morning. I discovered FR back during the 2002 elections. Some radio host was talking about FReepers going crazy about a political issue, so I searched for "FReepers" and got hooked the same day. I lurked over a year before signing on.

I was reading an article on Tony Snow (class act) & it referenced FR & I’ve been hooked since.
