  1. I really wish this thread would just be locked. Why? Because only one side of the story has been presented. Its funny to see how everyone is championing this one person when you have no other information other that he doesn't like parades. How about the fact that he doesn't come to drills or calls? How about the department, which has NIMS training in place and will be starting it this coming week? (A note about that, the member yelled at the chief and said that that wouldn't work for him because he was going to be to busy.) This thread has just gotten way out of hand. Anyone can PM me if they really want to talk more about this. But this is all you're gonna see from me here. And one last thing. Our department really took a chance when we voted this member in. We were actually warned against it by other agencies in the area because of his attitude and preformace. And this is the thanks we get.
  2. In response to JaredHG's comment about how to register for training, it is not that there is confusion about how to do it, but rather there is a reason that this certain member is not being allowed to register.
  3. as much as i hated to watch the patriots and the eagles win today, the best moment out of both games was definately when the security gaurd tackled the jack*ss who ran out on the field. nice hit.
  4. yeah i saw a story about that on the news. the pictures are in good taste (IMOP) and its for a good cause. ive also read a lot of stories about parties on campuses where the money made is going to the tsunami relief. perhaps a little more of an "out side the box" way to raise money, but it is a way to raise money from people that wouldn't otherwise donate.
  5. hahahahahaha, putting her through FF1, she'd probably want pink turn out gear
  6. id rather run head first into a wall than see or listen to her. i dont know if anyone caught the south park a month or so ago where they spoof her, it was hysterical.
  7. that is a pretty progressive idea, a good one though. i've always argued for our dept. to set up a fitness area in house or work with a health club in the area for memberships for firefighters, i know some other depts in the area that do that. fitness is often an underlooked and underappreciated aspect of firefighting and for EMT's. hopefully in the next few months we will have that fitness area in our dept. we actually recieved a used, but still in fantastic condition, piece of gym equipment donated by a resident. also, what is "cyberbullying"? being away at school i must have missed that one
  8. once again the jets manage to snatch defeat from the hands of victory
  9. here's a good story about one man's reply to a neighbor that didn't like his christmas decorations http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6590930/ also, do a lot of departments put wreaths on the front of their engines?
  10. being broke at school i only filled my jeep up half way and it was $24
  11. out here by buffalo its at $2.15 a gallon, i dont know if i want to know what it is back home.
  12. Hey all, I don't know if anyone heard about ABC's decision not to air "Saving Private Ryan" tonight. if not, here is one of the many links about i: http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/11/news/fortu...dex.htm?cnn=yes does anyone else feel that the FCC has put such a, for lack of a better word, fear into networks that they are now worried about being fined for showing a fantastic movie that was meant to honor those who fought in WWII? it was just something i was talking to a couple of people about earlier and wanted to see what anyone else thought about it.
  13. saw our first snow a little while ago here at school in western NY. supposed to get an inch or so over night. it's about this time of year I wonder what I'm doing out here by lake erie.
  14. There are pictures of E-167 at the South Salem website. http://www.ssfd-ny.org/gallery/Apparatus Looks awesome, sucks I had to go back to school the day before it came in.
