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!

Who Says?
Who says that we both look alike?
I think that is absurd.
A tree is not a babbling brook,
A cat is not a bird.
A house is not fire truck.
A mouse is not a car.
If you think that we look alike,
Your heads an empty jar.
Sure Im cute, look at my smile,
But give this thought a whirl.
She cannot be as cute as me,
You know shes just a girl.

Friends Forever
A friend is someone we turn to....when our spirits need a lift
The miracle does happen...it happens in the heart. You don't know why it happens or why it gets its start
A friend is someone we treasure...for our friendship is a gift
A friend is someone who fills our lives..With beauty, joy and grace....
And makes the world we live in...a better happier place.
The miracle does happen...it happens in the heart. You don't know why it happens or why it gets its start
But you know the miracle always brings a very special lift. You realize that our friendship is God's most precious gift.
A great big hug to all our friends at the Finest.....

New band aids from Johnson & Johnson
Subject: New band aids from Johnson & Johnson
Kerry to Endorse New 'Purple Heart' Band-Aids
NEW BRUNSWICK, New Jersey
Senator John Kerry, the recipient of three Purple Hearts, has signed a contract with Johnson & Johnson to endorse a new line of band-aids.
The band-aids will be small purple hearts designed to cover minor, superficial wounds like Kerry suffered as a lieutenant in the Vietnam War.
"We're proud to be working with Senator Kerry," said a Johnson & Johnson spokesperson. "We plan to use actual shrapnel removed from his arm in our ad campaign to highlight the small size of our J&J Band-Aid brand Purple Heart bandages."
The doctor who treated Kerry at Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam, recently described the procedure used to treat the wound that won the senator his first Purple Heart.
"First, I located the wound with the aid of a magnifying glass," said Dr. Louis Letson. "Then, I used a pair of tweezers to extract the shrapnel, which measured approximately one centimeter in length and two to three millimeters in diameter.
"Finally, I covered the wound with one of those little round band-aids people use to cover corns on their toes."
The Band-Aid endorsement is not the first for Senator Kerry.
It comes on the heels of two other high-profile endorsement deals Kerry has signed with Waffle House and Flip-Flops, Inc.

God Bless Our Military
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Mama_Bear; Dutchess or Aquamarine and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nations leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.
Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
