WHOA! Thats quite a vehicle. Never seen one, can't imagine what a JAWS job that would be.
-
I know you know where it is, that was merely meant to demonstrate how easy it is to get there. Besides, now those who did not know, now know where to look! I was merely stating the fact that there are many "buttons" and "links" up top, like its not confusing enough as is? Just my opinion, it was not meant as an attack on you!
-
I think there are more than enough links on the top of the page. I mean, this is a fun optional thing, I don't see the need for more links on top. Just go to Points, and Lotto. Easy enough.

I just gave Stiloski's a call, and apparently they are looking for F/T, which could start immediately. I wish I could, and would love to find something that could work around my school schedule.

My little trip took me from Dutchess County Airport, around the county, out to the Catskills, and back. Here are some of my more interesting shots. All are not the greatest, so be gentle. Here is my beloved (and hopefully ALUMNUS college soon) DCC The Poughkeepsie Railroad Bridge, and the Mid-Hudson Bridge Fire Tower out by Hunter Mountain Hunter Mountain

I use my Survivor light for all kinds of things, but mainly on my turnout gear. I had an issue with a part breaking on mine, contacted Streamlight, they had me send it back in, repaired FREE OF CHARGE, and returned it promptly. I highly recommend Streamlight, any model!

Although the vehicle has spot mirrors (below standard side mirrors), the left front corner can be somewhat easily viewed due to its proximity to the driver, either by leaning over the dash, or peeking out the window. The opposing corner is a blind spot not covered by the spot mirrors below the Pass. side side mirror. Thats just my guess. If you look at FDNY R-1, they have that same mirror type on the new rig. The older Rescue 1 also had these on both sides!

I see 'em on the TSP all the time, they stop to assist at MVAs and such. Aren't they run by the DOT? I think they have flares, and signs (like fold out caution signs) and I think they are mainly there as a safety vehicle for broken down motorists, and they assist the FD on occasion. They may also have a jumper box, but I haven't really actually stopped to ask them their purpose/training or equipment. An interesting point you bring up!
-
Wow, this is all news to me. I would be very interested to see where this goes. Even though they say it has "been around" or "been researched" since the 80s, I hope something will come of it!

That's one extreme soccer fan! Mike Thats one unprepared FD.

Well duh! Especially since you made me move the ambulance so it wouldn't be in your pictures you little baby. Yet you still managed to get your own POV in it!

??? Where is 39-8? All I see there is the Maroon 39-2 Suburban!

Simply put, if you possess a scanner that is CAPABLE of receiving, or interfering with any channel used by a PD, you are guilty of a misdemeanor. I have never known and PO to issue a FF/EMT for possession of a scanner, so long as it is for a legitimate use, for example, a firefighter or EMT who uses a device to listen to fire frequencies. The wording of the law states CAPABLE. This means that EVEN IF you don't actually have any PD frequencies in it, so long as it COULD POSSIBLY hear them, it is illegal. Again, I hav never known a PO to issue a FF or EMT for such a violation, so long as their intentions are honorable.

I used to check very often, but only once in a blue moon do I check EMTBravo.com

I agree! I wish I would be available for that Open House, but of course, no, I will be in Poughkeepsie, just in class!! Figures! Ok, Ole129K, you are now our official liaison for this! I have seen the outside, I want to know how beautiful it is on the inside. If its anything as far as it looks on the outside, I'll bet its GORGEOUS!

Scarier yet still, I had gone on a trip to Australia in Summer 2001. My return flight was from LAX to Newark. I arrived home on August 11, 2001. My visa in my passport is from the same day (Australia is in the next day from the International Date Line, so i left on the 11th in Australia, and arrived home "the same day", wben thought almost 24 hours later)! That is also the last time I have flown on a commercial airline. I can not even imagine what airports and airlines must be like thesae days!

Was sitting in the cafeteria, 4th period, senior year of HS, when they made the announcement about the attacks. There was more to my discovery, but I shall post that at another time.
