  1. It'll be worse with all the Taxi's and buses right there by Mt Vernon West.
  2. Anytime...thanks for all the hard work.
  3. Basketball...IT"S HOCKEY SEASON!!!
  4. JBE, You guys got it as part of the "new" contract or a new law??? CAM
  5. Seth, I goto the .com everytime I log in. Maybe if you had a photo admin/editor? Someone who would volunteer to handle the photo side of the site. You set up an email photos@emtbravo.com or something and give that admin access to it. You get vol to Mod and do live support I am sure a qualifed Vol would step up to handle photos. This way they would be updated more often. They could also keep the .com a little more "cleaned up" archive the old photos at the end of the week instead of them sitting there for a few months, changing the Photo of the DAY (featured photo), etc. If you ask people to just put them in a thread it could lead to a big mess. IMO. CAM
  6. HEY HEY calm down killer....don't forget that the Fire Alarm Bureau is the top floor of city hall!! At least let me empty my locker first.
  7. Tickets cost????? Do you have to be there to win?
  8. Cooking fire confined to vessel is generally only if there was an actual fire in the pan or pot and it went no further. Any extension past the pot or pan is a structure fire. If they are cooking and there is no fire but they activate the alarm system it is just an accidental alarm activation - no fire. But of course each Dept may vary...
  9. Now I know most EMS guys hate this term, but it is very common in urban areas. An ambulance is called "the bus" because a great many of EMS calls will be someone with a VERY minor medical problem, who is broke and just wants a ride to the hospital. Or they don't want to wait to be seen so they try to beat the system.
  10. But you can go to Turning Stone in Verona, NY and gamble at 18 because the entire casino is B.Y.O.B. Even the restaurants don't serve alcohol. Just FYI.
  11. This got way less press then most of these type situations but: Journal News How serious were these kids? I'm glad we won't find out.
  12. I got a kick out of this line.... ...although I guess it does have a pump...
  13. Here is an interesting site on this topic: History of 911
  14. So they taught a kid to swim....big deal. Kids naturally swim and float. (Especially after you teach them how...lol.) Adults are the ones that let their nerves get in the way.
  15. When in doubt....SEND THEM OUT!!!! You gotta be 100% positive to "ignore" a call. (ie: call for smoke from a building and off duty member calls at same time to say it is a dryer vent on his neighbor's house...)
  16. There always hope.....I HOPE.....
  17. As long at the freakin Patriots lose one of the next two games my year is salvageable. Go JETS...at least they can get good at golf this year...lol.
  18. OK I just realized I have like 88,000+ points. Now I haven't been online as much lately as I used to so maybe I missed it but, what can I do with my points? Thanks in advance. CAM
  19. Well it is that time of year again. Air is getting crisp. Talk of possible snow in the forcast (man I hope that storm goes south and we get snow...lol). And ski resorts all around are opening up for a new season. Just wondering what are folks favorite place to ski? Any hidden secrets? Maybe you know of a place that gives big discounts to FD/EMS/Police? Having worked and lived at both Whiteface in NY and Mt Snow in VT for a year each I would highly reccomend both. Whiteface is run by the state and is not really a resort as such. Also if you are going to go there make sure that it has fresh snow because if there is a drought of snow the mountain is nicknamed "Iceface". If you plan on drinking stay in Lake Placid where you can easily get from bar to hotel. The roads up there are no joke. But if you like small town hospitality there are many little motels and inn's in the surrounding villages. Mt. Snow is a great resort to go for a weekend alone, with friends, or even with the kids. Plenty of varying terrain and stuff to do. Ton's of little inn's in the valley where you can find great lodging deals. If you are gonna go to Mt Snow for a long weekend, I suggest you take a daytrip up to Killington while you are there. Only another 45min and well worth it!! Well that's it for now. THINK SNOW!!!!
  20. Ah yes Thunder Ridge...Lot's of fun if you go the morning after a big snow dump. Not too big but dirt cheap and real friendly. And of course the Red Rooster!!!! Best food on Rt 22! Used to stop every trip to Siwanoy Scout camp when I was younger, before they sold it to build friggin condo's or something. Anyone have an opinion on Sunday River up in Maine? Is it worth the drive and money??

  22. Guy goes outside...points shotgun at perp and says "move and you're dead"....perp then moves towards guy with shotgun (while this guy is still on his own property)...guy say's again "don't move"...Guy shoots perp (who btw had a crowbar which can deffinately be used a weapon)....guy then goes and puts gun back in his house and then obeys police commands to lie on ground. I think they should give him a medal and an "Honaray Sheriff" Badge. I wish my neighbors had thought like him when my house was robbed a few years back.
  23. Oswegowind...I am glad you said that cause I just was gonna type the same thing. How about a moderator changing the title?? Keep the Christ in Christmas!!!
