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.

[ru4liberty]

I'd be happy to show you how to link to a sound file. FReepmail me and we'll talk, k?

[ST.LOUIE1]

I see you're in good form, 'who'. : )

I'm glad you're here. Missed you yesterday.

[Billie]

I caught Little Willie sneakin' out of the pasture last night with his dancin' clothes on. He was goin' over to the South Forty to romance the girl cows.

Hi, coby - Little Willie's looking good. She wants to dance with him.:)

[Diver Dave]

Here's a "Bucky" look-a-like for your next FReep.

[Diver Dave]

Late morning greetings.

Coach has taken me out of the game and put me on the 15-day disabled list.

[whoever]

..Missed you yesterday.

..Why, thank you, Mr. Saint.

Monday is 'field trip' day here at the "Home". They take us out for a picnic, to a musuem, a ballgame, a rock'n'roll concert........

You get the idea.

[whoever]

..Coach has taken me out of the game and put me on the 15-day disabled list. ..

I am sorry to hear this, Diver.

However, will that allow you more time here with us?

Please do take care of yourself. You are very important and we need you in our daily lives.

[LadyX]

What clever captions, Freedom'sWorthIt!!

My best to you always, good friend..:)))

[Billie]

I took a quick poll of a few girls to see what they thought of the idea, and alas..... 'chicks' just don't dig Coby.

Oh? Just who did you poll? LOL!

SIGH!
Oh, COBY

[Billie]

RESIST those impulses, Wolfie.... ....next, you'll be calling her Billy Goat!! LOL

Good one! LOL! I'll do it!

Then u vil pay...:)))

Hmmmmm....maybe I won't. : )

Actually, I sorta figured "William" would be next. :)

[Billie]

That is beautiful, who. And we missed you yesterday.

[whoever]

..Oh? Just who did you poll?..

Sure didn't poll me. I love COB1.

[ru4liberty]

Just a snippet was all I could find of this tune.

[LadyX]

Speaking of your 'quick' poll, laughing here at your 'quick' mind and hand, Louie..:)))

[whoever]

Thanks, Billie.

HOW IT HAPPENED

And God populated the earth with
broccoli and cauliflower and
spinach, green and yellow
vegetables of all kinds,
so Man and Woman would
live long and healthy lives.

And Satan created McDonald's.

And McDonald's brought forth the
99-cent double-cheeseburger.

And Satan said to Man,
"You want fries with that?"

And Man said, "Supersize them."
And Man gained pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt,
that woman might keep her figure that
man found so fair.

And Satan brought forth chocolate.
And woman gained pounds.

And God said, "Try my crispy fresh salad."
And Satan brought forth ice cream.
And woman gained pounds.

And God said, "I have sent your heart
healthy vegetables and olive oil with
which to cook them."

And Satan brought forth chicken-fried
steak so big it needed its own platter.

And Man gained pounds and his
bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And God brought forth
running shoes and Man
resolved to lose those extra pounds.

And Satan brought forth cable TV
with remote control so Man would
not have to toil to change channels
between ESPN and ESPN2.

And Man gained pounds.

And God said,
"You're running up the score, Devil."

And God brought forth the potato,
a vegetable naturally low in fat and
brimming with nutrition.

And Satan peeled off the healthful skin
and sliced the starchy center into chips
and deep-fat fried them.

And he created sour cream dip also.

And Man clutched his remote control
and ate the potato chips
swaddled in cholesterol.

And Satan saw and said, "It is good."

And Man went into cardiac arrest.

And God sighed and created
quadruple bypass surgery.

And Satan created HMO's

Coach has taken me out of the game
and put me on the 15-day disabled list.

Good one! LOL!

Glad you could sneak away from his prying eyes. : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

Oh? Just who did you poll? LOL!

Oh, ok.....just Louie.

[ST.LOUIE1]

..Missed you yesterday.

..Why, thank you, Mr. Saint.Everyone misses you when you're absent. : )

Monday is 'field trip' day here at the "Home".
They take us out for a picnic, to a musuem, a ballgame, a rock'n'roll concert........

I'd like to check into your 'home'. Sounds like fun! LOL

[admiralsn]

Thank you for all that you do to help spread conservative values in this country. Your work has helped people all over the country. Afterall, as one example, I could do very little here in Texas to help oust Condit. But you did your part and it paid off. Thanks.

[ST.LOUIE1]

Speaking of your 'quick' poll,
laughing here at your 'quick' mind and hand, Louie..:)))

Thank you, pretty Lady. : )

But be very careful of the "quick hand". : )
