The 2012 Summer Olympics are off and running. Many of us here probably watched the Opening Ceremony. Danny Boyle who directed "Slumdog Millionaire" put it all together.
For some reason the National Broadcasting Company decided there was a segment of the ceremony that would be edited out, and while it was happening we here in America got the treat of a Ryan Seacrest/Michael Phelps interview.
That segment it turns out was a tribute to the victims of the 7/7/2005 London bombings; Great Britain's 9/11.
Here's a link to view it. It's quite a beautiful and moving performance.

Fully involved car fire - vehicle unoccupied upon PD & FD arrival. Brought quickly under control by NRFD. Photos are out of order, my apologies - I guess I uploaded them backwards.

RIP FF KEITH MORRIS OF THE CITY OF NEW ROCHELLE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
My Thoughts, Prayers, and Condolences Go Out To The Morris Family and Members Of The City Of New Rochelle Fire Department Family.

This is quite shocking, the whole situation. I'm asking myself "is this really happening?" It's surreal. ny10570 who we now know his name is Lenny Joyner, see his photo on the Denver news story, has been a regular productive member of this board for years. We know his political leanings, his compassion for others, his decency....yet most of us didn't know him personally.
I wish I had.
To those members here who had the honor of knowing him, condolences to you all. We all share in your grief.
For all of us here who care, who feel, please take care of yourselves now. Don't be tempted to grab the beers or anything else to drown the pain away.
Talk about it. Write about it. Share your feelings with those of us here who care for you and want you to be okay. That's what this site is about. A Fraternity of sorts. Times like these are the most testing for everybody. Talk about it at the firehouse, the precinct, the ambulance quarters.
Lenny got called home to God way too early, yet he obviously died doing what he wanted to be doing. Living his life the way he wanted it to be. Quite an adventurist it seems. I imagine he was quite ecstatic to reach that peak, to see that view, to be closer to his God.
Our board has another hero now. And his name is Lenny Joyner. God Rest In Peace.
Edit: Last name proper spelling.

I am admitting compu-cluelessness and cannot figure out how to do this, and no I don't do pay-pal or any of that stuff. Can someone provide a real address where I can send a "GASP!" actual, written out, paper check?

Very sad news. Rest in Peace Brother, my thoughts and prayers are with NRFD and his family.

Sad to say that the most recent update states members of the military were either killed or wounded in the shooting. The death penalty is not even justice for this man, if we want to call him that. Thoughts go out to all those who lost someone and all those involved in this horrific tragedy that will have to live with it for the rest of their lives.
