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.

SOME OF FR'S FINEST PROFILE PAGES #2

Many Freepers have taken advantage of the opportunity to create a Profile Page. The results of these creations are often illuminating, humorous, inspirational, artistic or biographic, just to mention a few descriptive words.

Below are some randomly selected Finest FR Profile Pages. There are, of course, many other Finest Free FR Profile Pages worthy of featuring, and we hope to do some of them in the future, perhaps on a regular basis. If you have a Profile Page you would like to share, or if you come across a Profile Page that you want to bring to our attention, you know the drill - freepmail Billie, Mama_Bear or myself.

In the meantime, take a look at Some of FR Finest Profile Pages #2

Drew68 has put together a Profile Page that is, well, a profile page in the true meaning of the word. He discusses his biography, his interests and his views and includes a few photographs of himself. His Profile Page is pretty complete but he says there are more links and photos to come. Take a look, (especially you single ladies as Drew68 is not married!)

Slyfox has dedicated his Profile Page to the Clinton Crimes of which he believes there are 234. He has listed many of them and has provided some graphics of Bill and Hillary Clinton in prison garb. And, heh, they look great in stripes...lol.. Thanks Slyfox for reminding us of what sleeze the Clintons were and still are.

CyberCowboy777 describes himself as an Originalist, believing in the validity of both the Bible and US Constitution in original form and meaning, with only a Conservative interpretation for the current times. His Profile Page illuminates these views. There are also links to Constitution Party (formerly American Taxpayers Party) publications. Also some photos here and there of President Reagan and John Wayne. This is an enlightening and informative Profile Page.

Hispanarepublicana has written an inspirational autobiographical essay for her Profile Page. It is a good read on many levels and is so cool that it has even provoked its own thread.This is one of the replies on that thread..."You are not only extremely wealthy, you have reminded a few others of us how wealthy we are, too."

William Wallace has created a very pleasant Profile Page. It consists of photographs and quotes of "his heroes". He leads off with one of our heroes, President Reagan. Next is Lou Gehrig and a copy of his Farewell Speech. Then comes Malcom Muggeridge. This is a most pleasing and enjoyable Profile Page. Thank you William Wallace.

Just Amy's Profile Page is Just Cute!! She has displayed her numerous signature .gifs (over 50) for us to enjoy at one glance. These .gifs were mostly gifts to her from her friends (such as St.Louie1 who is credited with over 50). Thank you Just Amy for putting a smile on our face.

WEEKEND THREAD 8/17-18/02

[daisyscarlett]

At last, we appear to be on the thread at the same time. I keep missing you but have been so enjoying your graphics and have taken you up on your saying that anything you post is up for grabs. I have grabbd at least a couple.

I noticed you posted a midi Sat. by LeeAnn Womack. I think today is her birthday...I heard her being interviewed live on our local C&W station and she was just adorable, with that cute Southern twang and all.

[daisyscarlett]

Sorry for the double pings. But, hey, two pings are better than none...lol...

Hurry and get your spa done so you can go to the movies again and tell us what good ones are playing...

[Dog]

Afternoon Billie.....:-)

Hello everyone!

[daisyscarlett]

Oops, post #82 was meant for Blackie, not Billie....I know Billie is not building a spa and I also think she does not go to many movies-waits for the videos...lol.

[WVNan]

Hello Billie. We may actually be here at the same time.

[WVNan]

Wow, are we actually here together? I've missed you every day. I've always loved your "Scarlett" image because she is my favorite literary "heroine". As I have said before, my gifs are gifts. Feel free. I love scrounging and coming up with fits.

Good morning, Daisy. I would have been here sooner, but was perusing the interesting profile pages that you are featuring today.

Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to make your profile interesting and informative. It is disappointing to click on a FReeper and find nothing on their page ...... sometimes not even a flag to show their state. I appreciate getting a little glimpse of the person behind the screen name.

[dansangel]

Good day to all!

Yay! More profile pages to peruse! I am always so much in awe of FReepers with technical ability. I enjoy looking at the various profile pages because some of them are just so creative!

Take care all and please pray for all of us in the 4th District of GA. I am on "pins and needles" about the McKinney vs. Majette primary tomorrow. I have asked the good Lord to please let us have some new representation when we wake up on Wednesday morning. There has been a whole grassroots movement of FReepers working hard to have McKinney unseated, so you can't say we didn't try.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} aplenty and may God Bless you all!

[The Thin Man]

BTW, any suggestions for cleaning the overspray from my keyboard? :^)

Mornin', DD. I'm surprised that you would laugh at Billie's misfortune. I thought you liked her. :-)

And, hey, where's YOURS, Smarty?!

Billie, it must be the Thin Man logo on my profile page that's hurting my chances. It's should be obvious by now that daisy isn't impressed with your work. :-)

[Billie]

Hi, Dog! Having a good day, I hope?! Thanks for stopping in - isn't this fun?

[Mama_Bear]

Clara, I didn't get a chance to thank you yesterday for sharing your weekend with us. Sounds like you had a wonderful, inspiring, soul cleansing time.

[lodwick]

LOL- great to have you back in form - that nice act was getting really lame. Thanks for the laughs. JL

[The Thin Man]

Oh, no! Now, I'm going to have to be nice to you again. :-)

[Billie]

Hey! I do think you are right! I'm here! I think you still are, too! I don't know why - I thought you were more of a night person - good to see you. I still think that little nun is adorable! You do have brown hair, don't you? I changed her hair from blonde to brown because I thought I remembered seeing your photo, with dark hair. :)

[ST.LOUIE1]

Somehow I kinda thought you would favor Amy's, LOL!!

You have to admit....it's colorful. LOL

How are you doing today?

Great!

Glad you're back, Pip!

[Mama_Bear]

'Morning backatcha. Is it still morning where you are? I'm getting a late start today.

[ST.LOUIE1]

I tend to be a bit partial to Just Amy's profile. LOL

I wonder why?! LOL!

Hmmmmm....I just felt a dig to my ribs. : (

Hi, TLL!

Afternoon,

[Mama_Bear]

Love your "Mixer" sigs. Have a nice Monday. :-)

[ST.LOUIE1]

I want you to know that JustAmy worked her buns off to get her Page finished by today.....
Her last message to me was, in the likes of
"I think I am finally done unless Louie sends me another .gif"...lol..

LOL! Wish I had. : )

Cute graphic! : )
