A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and 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....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

Montage by martin_fierro
"BEST FRIENDS are the siblings God forgot to give us."
A change of pace today; a filler of sorts.... an email received some time ago from a friend: various quotes about love and friendship. Please feel free to add your own treasured gems.
Thank you, martin_fierro, for making this special montage for me to use today. I can't think of a better way to illustrate "Best Friends" than with FReepers' own photos, and the graphic you chose is perfect!
Of Love and Friendship....
- LOVE starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.
- THE HARDEST thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.
- DON'T FROWN. You never know who's falling in love with your smile.
- DON'T CRY over anyone who won't cry over you.
- What do you do when the only person who can make you STOP crying is the person who MADE you cry?
- Nobody is PERFECT until you fall in love with them.
- Some people make the world SPECIAL just by being in it.
- A BEST FRIEND is like a four leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have.
- Most people walk in and out of your life, but only FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart.
- GOOD FRIENDS are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
- Good friends are like STARS. You don't always see them, but you know they are ALWAYS THERE.
- When it HURTS to look back, and you're SCARED to look ahead, you can look beside you and your BEST FRIEND will be there.
- TRUE FRIENDSHIP "NEVER" ends. Friends are FOREVER.
And Other Good Stuff....
- DON'T let the past hold you back; you'll miss the good stuff.
- LIFE is SHORT. If you don't look around once in a while you might miss it.
- REMEMBER, every minute spent angry is sixty seconds of happiness wasted.
- EVERYTHING is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end.

Thanks, Mixer!
1) Click on the graphic to open the Calendar. 2) Once there you can click on any month and even click to the right to go into next year. Once you are in the month that you joined FR you will need to click on the number in the calendar and then an add item screen will come up. 3) In the next box enter your name in the "Calendar Text" field and then click on submit. 4) If any of the screens fail to load simply click on refresh in your browser and that will usually fix it. 5) If all else fails or simply if you want me to do this for you send me a FReepmail and I will gladly do it for you. ~Mixer

That's nice of them.A lot of us complain about AOL a lot - but it's all I've ever used, so maybe I just don't know any better. LOL! There are always several top news headlines 'right there' when we log on.

Given a choice between Italian food and Mexican food, I'll take Italian almost every time! And I'll bet no one loves pizza any more than I do! :)

Just wanted to say....
....to two dear FRiends. : )
To: Billie
Well, I'm one of those 'weather affected' people who have difficulty with gray days.....and that's about all we've had for the past month.
It's tough to 'spread sunshine all over the place, and put on a happy face' in THIS weather! :o)
Speaking of which, it just started to rain again and elder son is out trying to get the lawn mowed. We didn't even get a full day of nice stuff.......sigh......

JustCatchingUp after playing JustHooky..:))
Truth is, I went to Augusta early this morning to have laboratory tests drawn at the VA Medical Center.
Finally reached the Hot Seat, and the lab tech asked, "And
what is your first name??"
Puzzled, I responded, and she showed me the card - it said Otis Bransom! When I was there a week and a half ago, the clerk accidentally handed me the wrong ID card after processing in, and I had put it in my wallet without looking at it.
After going to Triage and obtaining a new ID card, went next door to The Medical College of Georgia to make an August appointment, and then - - shopping!
After returning home in the afternoon, got groceries and decided to take a n-a-p. Did a world of good!
Billie, you have indeed created a Room where all are comfortable, and truly become Family and Friends. It takes a special person and devoted hostesses to lovingly produce these awesome threads day after day - week after week.
Know all here echo my sincere "Thank You!" to all of you - -
You are the heart of The Finest, dear Billie - - and have our hearts.
