What a bummer. To bad the server can't remember both names.:)

I got that particular one fixed. It never hurts to ask nicely. :)

Money Is No Object

Good afternoon, Miss Billie.

Hope your Tuesday is sunnier than ours.
We had rain all night and it is still raining today.
We need the rain so I'm not complaining, just wish the sun would shine for awhile. :)

Thank you for the updated Hall of Fame.
They are a treasure to our Finest Family.

Thank you for another lovely thread.

[Billie]

Oh my gosh! I didn't even know that thread existed, and look at the number of posts already! I'd say your poem fits the thread quite nicely. Who says they all have to be *pretty* or *sweet* poems? :)

When I first started downloading to photobucket I kept deleting entries not realizing, unlike tinypic, you had to leave it in your own files there.....

Not such a big thing in our comment posts, but it is nice if our opening posts stay intact. :( Sometimes it's unavoidable - a server messes up, loses files, shuts down, or something, and then some (like me) accidentally alter a file name, and oh, it is ugly! LOL

Good, Majjie. There are some really neat threads in our archives. Some are just fluff, but many are really good. :) I do the Hall of Fame every three months, and we can go backwards to find every thread we've ever posted. Provided, that is, I didn't mess up a link. :( But even then, the thread before or after the messed-up link should get you to the right one. Plus our TGIF threads have that week's Monday through Thursday links.

[Billie]

Wow, Billie. Almost 4 years. Better start planning for the anniversary party. :)

Would you like to be in charge? :)

Took a short trip down memory lane with some of those profiles. Indeed, lots of missing graphics in the early ones.

I know. :( Hate that.

"...Plus our TGIF threads have that week's Monday through Thursday links."

I noticed that a while back...Nice feature! It's hard to imagine that The Finest got started just 4 years ago...seems as though it's been here much longer! I'm glad that The Finest Thread got started! This one and The Dose are my never miss a day since arriving to FR Threads!

[Diver Dave]

Would you like to be in charge? :)

Nope. Check with Louie. :)

Hi Billie

I meant to pop in earlier today. I hope you are doing well! Lovely thread! I'll be looking and reading links of the past Finest, tonight ;). I always really enjoy doing so. Thanks!

I have learned not to move my pictures so I don't mess up a past thread. :)

[Billie]

Whoa, BillieBob : )

LOL. That's cute. :)

"And trust the end we shuttle to to Someone Else’s hands."

Just yesterday, in a discussion with DCFReeper Albion Wilde regarding FReeper Cindy-True-Supporter gravely injured son (Prayer thread here http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1601798/posts) I remarked:

the "...only one with His hand on the wheel for this trip is God."

Oh my gosh - isn't that something! But either way you or Bob said it, it's a beautiful reality.

[Billie]

Such a beautiful long-stemmed pink rose, Kitty.

[NicknamedBob]

Hmmm...

Good afternoon, Miss Billie.

Hope your Tuesday is sunnier than ours.
(Yes, I know it's good for all the flowers!)

We had rain all night and it's still raining.
We need the rain so I'm not complaining,

Just wish the sun would shine for awhile.
(Now, that would leave me with a smile!) :)

Thank you for that Hall of Fame.
It's a treasure to our Finest (Family) Name!

Thank you for a lovely thread,
And of course, on Friday, I'll be wearing red!

There, fixed it.

[MEG33]

Have internet back for the moment...Hugs..

Cable guy says there is a problem on a line blocks away..They may or may not get it fixed today. He worked and worked on it and ,unlike the last one, was so nice.

[MEG33]

;) Thank you! I love bluebonnets!

Billie, Your table reminded me of this poem-

Then let's put it inside. It does. I love that poem, too. :)

Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.
New-made friendships, like new wine,
Age will mellow and refine.

Cherish friendship in your breast-
New is good, but old is best;
Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.

~ from the poem by Joseph Parry

Ohhhh! Look how you framed that! Perfect!!!! What an awesome picture, too!

[Billie]

Hi, Diva - thanks for stopping in. :)

[Billie]

It's such a sad time for those who loved the one who passed away. Nothing but time can really make it better. :(

[Billie]

Oh, your post is so pretty - yours always are! (unless they're just CUTE!!!) But one thing they ALWAYS are....beautifully color-coordinated!

[Billie]

I'm happy that we are one of the two dailies you never miss, Majjie. Thank you. :)
