I’m SICK. I’m not sure I can say it enough to make ya fully understand. I think one of “Santa’s Sexy Helpers” must have “slipped me a mickey”.. LOL.  I’ve always said that if you ever hear that I’m in the hospital and really want to see (or cuss ) me, you had better come quick because it’s BAD. Well, ...

Ok, that’s enough silliness for the night. It’s Christmas Eve 2010 and I wanted to take a serious moment and wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  Our Battalion Chief (Teddy Adkins) is off sick but still made arrangements to have steaks delivered to every station on the North Battalion. Well done Chief … they were ...

I have some really good news to pass along on a local level. Those of you who have followed me for a while  (yea…both of ya)  will know the boys I’m talking about… for all others, I’ll explain in a moment.   That was my little “happy dance” LOL.  Coon and Opie have been with me since our days as “Melrose ...

I know it’s nothing compared to Buffalo or anywhere North of here but, this mornings commute to the station was through 5 inches of ice covered snow. I have to leave early enough to check the cows before heading into the city and that was a real chore this morning. The good news is that after I got out to ...

Well the snow found us. Here in Catawba, we had about 4-5 inches before it changed over to sleet. Chores don’t change just because of the weather, so I had all the regular feeding etc to do. The Buckaroo took the day off despite spending several days last week brushing up on loader operations … I missed the little fella ...

That’s big ol lovable Captain Mac Craft from #3-A Even our messenger truck driver Donnie Foutz has been caught up in the obsession Yea.. that’s Rhett (Fire ...

A few posts back, I announced Iron Firemen’s 1st official give away. I talked about wanting a new tattoo for Christmas and my inability to decide what to get (keeping in mind that fact that I don’t have a lot of spaces on my body large enough for a tattoo). I asked to see your firefighter tat’s and offered up ...

I got the video below from over at Fire Critic. I’m so mad I am almost speechless!  First, I’ll show ya a video of John McCain talking about the “tax bill”. All this crap “ear marked”  onto the tax bill and it passed.. yet the  James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act  was defeated! WTF !!  Everyone was wondering back in ...

Oh yea.. I’m hitting the “big time” now! I bet Statter or The Fire Critic don’t have a Christmas oriniment … well, I do. Kinda … sorta… At least Hydrant Gal “thinks” it’s me ..LOL How’s that for a headline Statter?? “Ironfiremen’s influence has no borders” .. (she’s from Canada Dave). Cool huh? I’ve followed Hydrant Gal for some time ...
