  1. Does this thread expire at 1,000 posts or 100 pages ? Can't wait to see what happens.
  2. "Accordian" buses aka "articulated" buses do not fare well in the snow. Westchester Bee-Line did not dispatch artics yesterday. Only 40-foot standard buses were used......and they all have snow tires.
  3. Insanity has taken over government.
  4. Thank you.....and,.....Amen !
  5. From today's Orlando Sentinel: http://www.orlandose...0,3690733.story
  6. From Lo-Hud.com: Helicopter pilot recounts father-son rescue off Croton Point CROTON-ON-HUDSON — The Peekskill man and his 6-year-old son stranded in the mud off Croton Point Park on Friday night faced a rising tide and few options. http://www.lohud.com/article/20101120/NEWS02/11200374/Helicopter-pilot-recounts-father-son-rescue-off-Croton-Point
  7. No standpipe and a long stretch thru the courtyard and up the stairs.
  8. Glad to see that staffing hasn't changed in the 35 years since I used to dispatch there.
  9. "60 Minutes" did a piece on Staff Sgt. Giunta Sunday night. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7054225n&tag=contentMain;contentBody
  10. Hey Seth.....what happened to "Wrecked ?" I kinda enjoyed the show.
  11. I love the old Ladder 22. Reminds me of a truck company I used to be on.
  12. I agree with Seth. Jet Blue has changed over the last year or two. They are no longer the discount airline that they used to be.The equipment is still good; the cabin staff nice; and I never had a TV that didn't work. I mostly fly from Westchester to Orlando (the other home) but have flown with JB as far as San Diego. Great airline, but, getting expensive and starting to look like all the rest !
  13. In those days, it was always 508 and 529 ! LOL
  14. It's all about the $$$ !
  15. This is an oportune time for consolidation of the Pelham and Pelham Manor fire departments.
  16. Yea.....but then you have the water issue. Rye Lake is part of the Kensico Resevoir which handles most of NYC's drinking water. The water huggers (fish ?) would not be happy.....and rightfully so.
  17. No. What the law is telling you is that you can't park within 15 feet either side of a fire hydrant.
  18. These new cars are sorely needed on the New Haven line. Most of the cars on the line are 30-40 years old.
  19. No.....that's the Getty Sq. branch of the Old Put. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_and_Putnam_Railroad
