6/18/07 - Saving a child from vehicle.

I have run on thousands of car accidents in my job. I can now say that there is no better feeling than saving a 3 yr old from a back seat during a accident. This little girl was the bravest kid I have even run into.

As we arrived, we found mom slumped over the wheel in a Diabetic coma. Vehicle crashed into several other ones as she approached the intersection. Now can you emagine (as a 3 yr old) seeing 4 fireman, 3 cops, and 2 medic's pounding on the windows and having your mommy injured and sleeping in the front drivers seat.

6/8/07 - Fireman get a new microwave

What do you get when you buy fireman a new microwave ? - Lots of trouble when they expirement with the old one.

We tried some "objects" in the old microwave and had a blast at work on friday. Firemen and extra time on their hands can lead to some of the most interisting things.

Lets just say that most of the stuff we tried, you can see done on YouTube by searching "microwave". The only thing that caused the real fun was the "shotgun shell" (slug). I can tell all of you this - it takes 1:45 sec for it to.................................................

5/28/07 - Finally a good day @ work

After the week I've had at work (see previous blog entry) it was finally nice to have a good one. Driving a fire truck in the holiday parade and having a city of 50,000+ actually claping and thanking us for a good job was a nice change this week. Even though Memorial Day is ment for military it still is nice that people thank us too. We really dont have a day for fireman so today is nice for us.......Well the triple time is nice also........ha ha ha (for just driving in a parade).

5/25/07 Suicide by shoe string.

I would not think that a common shoe string would be able to hold a 190lb 23 yr old in a hanging suicide attempt, but let me tell you  - IT WILL.

****Sorry but I have to censure this one a bit*****..............
