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.

Want another? Who are these guys? You've seen 'em before, but can you name them?

Thanks for Playing Name That FReeper #2!
These are ALL some of FR's Finest!

Hmmmm....looks like this is turning into a Frog Day afternoon.
And look at you on the bottom.... ...just laughin' your little frog legs off. LOL!

Yesterday was Dog Day....today is Frog Day!!!!
I KNOW I have a frog! I gotta have a frog to post!

Cute little fella....and hep, too. LOL

[lodwick]

... rat's a ventriloquist?

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRgggggggggghhhhhhhhh ;-)

It's a tough job you've taken on - telling jokes in the clean room. Keep'em coming.

[Dog]

What is with this frog thing???

[Billie]

Hi, d'sangel! What if I threw some names out there?! Nah! We'll wait and see how you do after looking through the FReeper Photo Album!

Don't forget our Men in Black in front of the White House either! ;) (Or you 'could' just check some links on my profile page and probably get every single one of them!)

[WVNan]

Did someone mention party?

[Billie]

That's the most adorable little dog! I'm pinging ru because it reminds me of the 'impression' one would get of Chelsey if one didn't know she was a rebel poodle. :)

[Billie]

New cars are such fun to drive - like a new toy! :)

[Billie]

I bought that "I Hope You Dance" CD in a single, and have let it play over and over in the car when I'm driving, haven't gotten tired of it yet! Pretty voice. Some of her stuff I don't care for, but I do like that one. :)

:Your graphic is out of this world beautiful.

[Billie]

The look on JustFrank's face is worth a jillion laughs! That graphic, whoever found it, did or, or whatever, gets my vote for one of the cutest 'people' logos ever!

[Mixer]

Both of those jokes were very funny.....Thanks for sharing.

[JustAmy]

"Is this Amy or Frank?"

Didn't you see JustAmy behind me? She doesn't trust me! I promised to behave until Billie leaves to fix dinner.

JustFrank

[Billie]

I liked the Froggy Bottom Boys better!

They are hard to beat, but Louie already beat me to them, and I already had that little dancing frog anyway! :)

[LadyX]

Oh, Nan!
I checked my comments one more time and found this!
Thank you for another 'gift,' dear friend . . . off now to tidy up His world...:)))

[Mixer]

New cars are such fun to drive - like a new toy! :)

Yes which is why I love to lease. A new toy every three years is so much fun.

[WVNan]

[Billie]

Better guess again. :)

[Billie]

ATTITUDE?! Us? Not here! Not unless it's a GOOD attitude! LOL! A POSITIVE attitude!

[Aquamarine]

Just popped in for a second...Aren't we silly? LOL!

[WVNan]

My hubby suffers from car boredom too. But he has hooked up with a used car dealer and they have fun horse--er, car trading every year.

[Billie]

Now let's see if I can find my APPLAUSE graphic! That was really cute!!

Ok, it may not have been THAT good, but it's the best I could find on short notice! :) (Darn, those hands look like hillary clinton clapping)
