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.

To Our FReeper FRiends: We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our spotlight on various FReepers. We thought we'd kick back on the weekends and simply review those who've been featured during the week. If you missed seeing them and want to say hello to them now, feel free to click on the link to that particular thread. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today and tomorrow, please feel free to do that also. One of us will always be around to see the welcome mat is still out, and maybe even put fresh flowers on the table. :)

I am not a nanny at all!
I just like the pictures so I decided to declare them okay to post!

Oh! Ok, guess you told me. : )

Putting me in charge of making sure everyone behaves themselves on this thread would be
like the Fox guarding the hen house!!!! :

Don't doubt it one little bit.

As for a 'fox' guarding the 'hen house'...forget that!

That's my job!

It's Better to Let The Fox Guard The Henhouse Than To Let The Dog Have The Keys To The Truck...

I'm still looking for the definition of "fantantastic" and now I gotta start trying to find out what a darn "yenta" is!!

Now here is an explanation you will understand. What is a Yenta? You remember Miss Kitty on Gunsmoke?

My apologies in advance to any Jewish friends out there!

What's the prob? Miss Kitty'd hook you up regardless the state of the foreskin - that gal was equal opportunity all the way. (Can I say this here?)

I noticed that you didn't say, "We'll buy you dinner"!!

Since I have been in Ca., I have found that some people think we are a little slow and dumb, but you have the distinction of one of the few that think we might be stupid.

Boy, offer a guy and ride and he expects to be fed, also!!!!!

Kind of like bumming a cigarette from someone and when he gives you one, you ask him if that is the only kind he has ---

OK, I'll commit - just come on, and be quick about it, I'm hungry.

Evidently there are some bad guys, too, that want to take me waaaaaay out in the boonies and make me buy my own dinner!!

Oh now come on, you aren't that naive are you?
Now this is where I have to show real restraint, and just smile and push that post button with no further comment! But I am just dying inside! Hee hee!
Where is my JustFrank when I need him?
