Last night, I post on the fact that Fire Critic (Rhett Fleitz) and Dave Statter (Statter 911) have jumped on the animated video “band wagon”. The three uf us have somewhat of a little “history” here on the network. There has been a lot of “frhetting” between us (mostly Dave and I against my “little buddy” Rhett). He’s too short ...

Animations (monkey see, monkey do), finger pointing and firemen doing real work!
ALL ABOARD! Seems as though everybody is jumping on the Xtranormal“band wagon”. Those little animated videos are poping up everywhere on the Fire/EMS Blog Network. Who knew that after only a month or so, the top bloggers on the network would be mimicking me? Oh yea.. it’s true and like they say…. imitation is flattering… but STATTER? I always held ...

I’m not sure what all the fuss is about but it’s all I’ve heard or seen on TV today. An “up-rise” against new airport security measures. I don’t see what the big deal is.

It seems as though we’ve been surrounded by yellow rigs today. I’ll get to that in a minute or twenty but there are a few other topics / headlines I want to hit first. Line of Duty Deaths (LODD’s) and serious injuries. Outside the United States, Geezer reported on a double LODD in Spain. Here in the U.S. we’ve been ...

Well.. kinda. I’m working on A-shift today. Rhett REALLY REALLY wanted to go to “Blog Camp” this year and needed a day off so I stepped up to the plate. I understand they will have live exhibits on typing, multi tasking, media uploads etc. Vendors will have the newest crayon colors on display as well as many other art and ...

Ok folks.. it’s our first day back and I have a lot to cover tonight. It’s kinda going to be like a roller coaster because I have both good and sad to cover.
