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. :)

Sorry I missed all the excitement around here! hehe! Off to visit my poor banged up sweetie. He looks MUCH better though.. but I saw his surgery owies for the first time last nite...his leg looks like Frankenstein! about 5 long incisions, all stapled up. I was watching the nurse to see how to change the dressings. God give me the strength not to be so easily grossed out! I could never be a nurse.
Love to ya all....

Goodie.

Good afternoon to ya.

If anyone cares to find the site where most of this goofiness originates - right click on the pic, right click on Properties, mash left button to drag over the URL and highlight, right click Copy - and then paste the addy into the Address Bar.

This works for most anything you find on the internet.

Have fun with it. JL

Hi, Pipster!

You might be a bit too churchy for this thread, it's deteriorated since last you were here.

ru4Liberty's been posting half naked men, and hangin' little boy's on bull's tales.

And Billie is allowing it.

And ladyinRed has become the new Net nanny. Anything goes! Really bad. : (

Good grief! I'm trying to go back and pick up where I left off last night when I left - it may be a lost cause! I'm almost afraid to see the rest of the evening's posts. :)

[Billie]

Good one! I'll see if I can find another that will get by Billie.

Humph! You posted that when you knew I was gone! LOL

[Billie]

We can be good or We can be bad. We Are Woman. It's our job to keep you confused. :)

You must be gettin' paid top salary.
You're all doin' a damned good job of it!
Oooops....pardon the profanity. : )

Yep! We get top money - cause we're good at our job!

Nanny is watching and listening, and she doesn't like profanity. ;)

[lodwick]

Afternoon there MissB - good to see ya here again. Thanks again for this TooMuchFun thread. ;-)

[Billie]

Those margaritas did indeed look great! So was the one I had last night before dinner! :)
