A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day 07-31-02

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.

Today's Featured FReeper....
CounterCounterCulture!

This FReeper's "FR Birthday" is April 3, 1999,
and he claims to have been born under the sign...
******
Could that account for his brilliant and colorful personality?
I don't know, but he certainly is a multi-faceted FReeper!

When I asked him if I could spotlight him
on "FR's Finest", he shyly replied....
"I guess I have no choice now...sigh...ah heck,
who am I kidding. I LOVE THE ATTENTION!!!
Me me me me me!!! LOL!"
.....


When I asked him to send me a list of the FReeping
events he has attended, he sent me.....
THIS!
(Is that an impressive list, or what?!?)


When I asked him if he would like me to highlight
anything particular, this was his response ......
"Nothing much else really. Just to re-emphasize: ...."

*** Yes, ladies, I am still single and available ***


CounterCounterCulture has, among other things, set up many of the
1999/2000 primary and general election Presidential live debate threads,
as well as many of the 2000 Democrat Convention live threads.

The list of CCC's contributions to FreeRepublic is endless.
Here is just one of his many notorious posts:
* Welcome to the DNC 2000 Awards Show! *
Freepers Choice Awards Galore
(GOLDEN BWA-HA AWARD WINNER FOR PARODY OF THE WEEK)




CounterCounterCulture at his first official FReep,
December 5, 1998 - during Xlinton's impeachment.


For a peek into the fascinating mind of this FReeper,

Please help me salute our FReeper of the day.

If we are lucky, we might be able to coax him out of
his shell long enough to come to our thread and say hello. ;-)

Lessee here...got the transcript in front of me (flip, flip, flip)...Says here ol' Gar' has "been married for 34 YEARS"...and, and, he's "not been a...a perfect man" and he's made his "share of mistakes"...and he intends to stay married to...oh, what's her name..."THAT WOMAN" for "as long as she'll have him." *

* Note: One year later now, so it's been 35 YEARS to THAT WOMAN.

But, I do like your graphics.

I like that one. It may find it's way into my file when I am not looking.

I am notorious for ducking cameras in my "regular" life, but I swear I don't duck Freep shots. For some reason Diotima, JimRob, Saundra, and the chefs seemed to get the bulk of face time that day, and Cool Guy for obvious reasons.

Hmmmmm...well, I can guarantee you it won't happen at the next FResno FReeping event that you attend. :-)

Is this by chance related to COB1's Swabbie thing? I prefer to be called "STORES". My days of swabbing are over and have been.

Hey Feinie (cc: AnnaZ, Lurkeria, Incindiary)...one of these days I'll make it back down to Low Cal to see y'all again, once I can accumulate enough time off to spend quality time (one afternoon was too short on my last visit). ;-)
