  1. If you ever make your way up to Dutchess County, THe Hyde Park Brewery on Rt 9 (town of Hyde Park) is excellent!! Their Big Easy Blonde and Chaos Stouts are amazing. Oh yeah, and their food is awesome too!!! http://www.hydeparkbrewing.com/
  2. Not for nothing, I believe that we all have come to form a certain bond with members of our own departments, and those neighboring. I personally would only go down with a group of guys that i know and trust. I would not want to go down there as a lone gun and get teamed up with A) some yahoo, that is gonna go off free lancing, or someone i dont know, and honestly, dont trust. I understand that the level of training is becoming standard across the nation, but that won't do a lick of good if you don't know the level determination and loyalty the guy behind you has. Just my $.02
  3. More thoughts and prayers go out everyday! God bless you and your family!
  4. Thoughts and prayers go out to Jimmy, and his entire family.....
  5. Oriental Diner ( i know it sounds bad, but they got the best food), Rt 9A in Hawthorne
  6. In the immortal words of Adam Sandler.... And one of the best sellers at a deli i worked in in college (The Bagel Co. in Poughkeepsie) was "the Yogi" = dbl egg, dbl bacon, dbl ham, dbl sausage, dbl cheese (dbl bypass) on an everything bagel. Now that is a belly bomber!
  7. OUr department generally prefers that you use the supplied turnout gear from the department, but for things such as gloves, hoods, and helmets there is some degree of flexibility, as long as it is OSHA and NFPA compliant.
  8. This test applies to County PD too right??
  9. Buy a Mac
  10. That could quite possibly be the cooles fire engine I have ever seen!
  11. I know that sometimes when Thornwood gets a commercial alarm at 1075 Broadway, 60 control says 10-75 Brodway, the 10-75 gets the heart pumping...
  12. I have a request. I happen to like when I used to go to the start page and have the list of the past few days incidents were right there. Is this feature gone with the new system? Or once all the bugs get worked out, will there be a spot for it on the home page?
  13. In the immortal words of Montgomery Burns "exxcccceellllleeeentt"
  14. Wilson Woods wave pool is really nice, but the patrons of that facility ruin it. Took a whole year to make it beautiful again, its taking weeks to break it back down
  15. Playland is run by the county parks department, Its generally croweded. If you want to go to a nice county run facility, I would say that Saxon Woods is the best bet. Just my $.02
  16. they were better a few months ago, kinda seems like they have gone down hill since the new place Jimmy Less's opened in North White Plains. DON'T get take out, takes FOREVER!! I highly recomentd the brisket and their home made chips. And the have some mighty cold beer, if you like that sort of thing!
  17. Valhalla and North White Plains stood by at the Kensico Dam for their fireworks show
  18. 25K a year is the same as they were making in 1986? Unfortunately these guys that are already on the job, dont give two $hits about the new breed that are coming in. Now they are just gonna attract more skells than ever, who are looking for a job with a gun and a badge, rather than a career. This dept, is headed straight down the crapper.
  19. One fatality due to smoke inhalation. Dec was DOA at United Hospital
  20. Driver of one of the vehicles was DOA to Phelps....
  21. Nice shots of the fire, heard about it, the paper did a really poor job of covering the story.
