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!

It's a Furry Finest Christmas!!!!

To My Finest Friends....Love "the Giz"

A Dog Christmas Carol...(sung to Winter Wonderland)
(OK please don't take offense :o) ....it's a guy dog thing! ( and I'm the ultimate GUY DOG!)
Dog tags ring, are you listening'? In the lane, snow is glistenin'. It's yellow, NOT white I've been there tonight, Marking up my winter wonderland.

Smell that tree? That's my fragrance. It's a sign for wandering vagrants; Avoid where I pee, it's MY pro-per-ty! Marked up as my winter wonderland.
In the meadow dad will build a snowman, following the classical design. Then I'll lift my leg and let it go Man, So all the world will know that it's mine-mine-mine!
Straight from me to the fence post, flows my natural incense boast; Stay off my TURF, this small piece of earth, I marked it as my winter wonderland."


One reason I'm nicknamed "the terminater" Enjoy!!!..Love Rusty

O' Christmas Tree

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings!
Before the pup, We trimmed your boughs Close to the floor, As space allows
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings!
The balls aren’t glass, No tinsel yet.. After that last trip to the vet
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings
Empty boxes, Wrapped carefully, Now barricade our Christmas tree
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings!
When pup is grown We’ll trim with glee And have a normal Christmas tree
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree How high up are your trimmings!


Canines begone... For all our Feline Friends.. MEOW..... Love - FredtheCat

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; Dutchess, The Mayor or DollyCali and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation’s 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.
