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. :)

Morning, Amy!

Isn't that the cutest gif?! You are just adorable, and don't I look just like every bear's mom? LOL!

Always happy to have neighbor's kids in for cookies (but Louie has the milk, and looks like he isn't here yet). ;-)

I need to go and get JK's photos ready to post on the rally thread. TTYL.

I think that graphic is so cute. I didn't swipe her but I did want to borrow it this morning. Seemed appropriate.
See you later; I will be gone until after 1:00. Well, I might stick around for half hour of so.

Hi, angel! I don't always get a chance to tell you, but we LOVE the hugs you bring every day.

Have a great time "power shopping". Lucky you! Just so happens, that's one of the things I do best. LOL!

I'm all dressed up to go shopping, but looks like I am not going to get to go today. Too many things to do around here.

Glad you came by with your eagle. Grab some coffee and a croissant (or two).

Have a great weekend!

Yes, I noticed. WAY too many of Mama_Bear. WAY too many cameras at our rally. :-(

I noticed that mtngrl got a couple of pictures of ladyinred, but I see you didn't. How did she bribe you? I want to know! If it works for her, it just might work for me. LOL!

Good morning, special person. :-)

That Alaskan sunset is beautiful. When I was there, I didn't see anything like that. It was cloudy and overcast everyday......and freezing cold, even though it was July! I admire the tough, rugged people who live up there. Beautiful state, nice to visit....don't think I could live there though, not this desert rat.
