A Few of FR's Finest......Every Day 06-24-02

A Few of FR's Finest.....
......Every Day

FR is a Treasure Trove of talented, compassionate, patriotic, wonderful people who gather every day to discuss the latest news and issues;  salute
and support our military and our leaders;  tell a few jokes;  learn a new
word;  write poetry;  pray for those in need;  and congratulate those who
are deserving. Thank you, Jim Robinson, for giving us the vehicle in which
we can express ourselves.


Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.  I
can remember lurking when there were only a few regulars who posted, and now there are over 60,000 who have registered for posting privileges. 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 November 11, 2001


So many people have written me since my original Veteran's Day Tribute, asking how they, or a loved one, could be included in that tribute. Since I can no longer add the photos to the body of the thread, I've been including them in additional posts as I received enough to make another collage.


Still that doesn't seem to be enough. I think there's never been a better nor more appropriate time to keep the faces of our own Veterans and Active Military in front of FReepers--every day! That's why I wanted to do yet another Daily Thread .....ABOUT FReepers .....and FOR FReepers. But not only about our Military FReepers; for all FReepers! Wouldn't it be nice to get to know a few of the other FReepers as well? That's why, in addition to seeing FR's Finest Military Personnel every day, I thought it might be fun to feature a different FReeper (or FReepers) each day. If you would like to be pictured, or know someone who would, please FReepmail me and we'll turn the spotlight - on YOU - for the day!


And do let me know if you'd like your picture added to the groups of Veterans/Active Military below. I will keep this page updated, and continue to add them to the comment section of the original Veteran's Day thread as well.

I'm Proud To Be A Freeper Because......

I get to meet people like this:  mtngrl@vrwc,  JustAmy,  Mama_Bear, and Senorita, a few of the FResno FReepers who give their time every Friday night to gather in support of our troops. I want to thank you and all of the other FResno FReepers for your dedication. (Oh, and contrary to what you might hear from ST.LOUIE1, it really isn't true they only attend the rallies for the cookies!) :)




Be sure and read about the Tailgate Party and Rally coming up next month. Call and make your reservations to attend. Click on the photo below for more information.

Billie, this is just beautiful! I have been anticipating this all week ... ever since you said that Monday would be the unveiling. :-)

I knew I would not be disappointed. You have outdone yourself once again. I am so pleased to be asked to participate with you and Daisy in keeping the thread running. What fun this is going to be ... except, I haven't posted a thread in over a year! I am going to have to brush up on my posting skills, I think. LOL!

Thank you Billie for all of the hours and hours you spend creating special graphics and posts for FreeRepublic. Congratulations on another beautifully done work of art.

If you get tired of this signature, just let me know, I have several more. }^)

Amy, I love that signature. They are all great, but this latest one is my favorite, ... but the silly duck with the fish is my favorite too, ... and I like the angel too. LOL!! They are all soooo cute. :-)

I was really curious to know what you look like these days, so I looked up "class act" in the dictionary and saw your picture there. Doesn't matter too much, any way you look at it, you're beautiful.

Luv ya.

I can't part with any of my 'signatures by Louie'. mntgrl needs a signature but she does not know Louie well enought to ask. Do you think we could ask him?

Louie: If you see a patriotic country girl, remember mtngrl!!

Gooood Mooooornin' Billie.

What better way to start a daily thread than to feature those wonderful FResno FReepers. I've had the good fortune to FReep with so many FRom FResno.

Love the awesome artwork. Thanks.
