  1. I was wondering what qualifications do you have to have to become an instructor? i like teaching and i thought it would be cool to someday teach the new and upcoming people. i am still just a vollie now and will be paid soon (fingers crossed) and just wanted to know what the requirements are ie. time, classes, etc. maybe i will be in this upcoming spring class if not then there is always fall have a great day and stay safe out there
  2. I think i would just goto Hell, MI. cheaper airfare.
  3. How can they NOT get it. Their story would be one of the most touching that that show could ever have.
  4. What is with all these new shows on TV about SWAT teams, and beach patrols. whens "YMCA Pool Lifegurad" coming out? PLus the got rid of Firehouse:USA so they can put this stuff on? i know they are all on diffrent channels but still. if the idea didn't work with other things why is it gonna work now? I mean they could be great shows and all but we will see
  5. HAHAHA That was funny. Just made my day! Thanks
  6. I am on the New Haven Line and we don't get to ride these trains. i have gone to the city from Fleetwood and i would take the new one anyday. they are bright, clean, i think more roomy, and seats more comfortable. only complain is they aint on the New Haven Line.
  7. Sounds like a great Christmas Gift to me. Hope he has a speedy recovery and can get back to work with his crew
  8. I bought a pair of boots for firefighter a few weeks ago but they are a little tight. anyone know a way to break them in a little so they fit? i cant wear them all the time like a normal pair of shoes. the ankle area on top of the foot is the part thats tight and it is pain in the butt to get them off without busting a hamstring. any ideas?
  9. ya i got the boot taking off thing already. i do have to yankee candles in there now. is there a fluid you can put on it to loosen the material so it stretchs easier?
  10. OK it is winter and my hands and knuckles are cracked and bleeding. anyone have any good remedies for this? i try and put hand cream on but it aint getting it done. PLEASE HELP!!!!
  11. sounds pretty sweet to me.
  12. FIRE INSUREANCE MUST SUCK IN THIS TOWN. Look like you house is gonna burn down at least twice in your life if you live in this area. anyone know where the busiest company in the US is? these guys are number 3. also is it just me or do they seem really, really, ridiculously cocky? like "ya we the best you all wish you could fight fires like we do" i mean we would all love a busy house but what is going on that they are having sooo many fires? do they include car accidents and no fire things in that number? if it is a volunteer company, why do people live there?
  13. we in pelham manor got shut out of 2 training center days this year but we still had 2 good days up there. i think they should put windows on the tower that close, like the metal ones on the other training buildings, so we can smoke it up a little for a apartment fire simulation.
  14. take an old jacket or pants and cut a swatch of cloth in the shape of a pocket and attach where you want it. i am in no way a seemstress and couldn't really tell you how to do it but if you get pants with the bellow pockets on ebay, you could attach those to your current gear. but i would try the old stuff in the closet thats gonna get thrown out first. there gonna trash it so have some fun with it :-D
  15. Pelham Manor still runs the 1973 Mack CF/Baker Tower Ladder and the 1976 Mack CF Pumper.
  16. ok now that we have all had a good laugh, does anyone actually now what these things are? i am sure they are not really like spinners. it must be like some kind of AWD system or something. also need to have a chain link steering wheel, and pirrelli tires. maybe we can hook up the NO2 system so that we can go really really fast
  17. maybe a few hoochies to just dance in the background while we fight the fire. I think you also get the Gucci or Louie Vitaon bunker gear as well as the new Nike Air Jordan Structure Fire Boots.
  18. cant wait to see some rapper with a 2007 Seagrave all chromed out and with a "bumpin" sound system. have it lowered with flat screen tv's in the head rests, subwoofers, the platinum halligans, the shield on the helmet will be all iced out with dimonds. i hear they already ordered 7 for the south bronx and the dirty south is gonna be all over the new rides.
  19. ok now it is working. i think they are not like ghetto spinners, they must be like something that helps the wheels turn. "i'm rollin on 38's beatch!" :-)
  20. the link is busted. cant find it on there site
  21. this low life should have ate a bullet a long time ago. i think a nice torture is in line. i cant believe that we cant just whip this boy. as for MR. D, you suck. why would you want to be assoc. with a POS like this? he is guilty, who cares if he "has some troubles with the law"? as for the whole tookie issue, it's great that you found this "new" witness. i guess this means you didn't shoot those 4 people, ok that fine, um oh ya you did admit to killing about 20 others. Needle, arm, DEAD.
