Thanks for the add

Joshua, thanks for the add, I don't take them lightly ,,, I've been doing some soul searching so sorry for the long time to accept your request ,,, months ago I was warning everyone that joined FFN about an A-hole I met here ,,, but I was reminded a few weeks ago what carrying anger & vengeance will do to you, it's really not me and I got wrapped up in it because I got ripped off ,,, I was more concerned about warning people than about things that really mattered ,,,

I'd love to add you and you add me, but write from time to time, it helps me remember who you all are ,,, write about anything, life, the wife, the job, pets, an opinion or maybe a good joke you heard ,,,, i don't write much in the blogs, but do enjoy exchanging e-mails with friends when it's slow here at the station or at home during my down time ,,,
C-ya, be safe and god bless

joshua, you know even at your age now, those birds are gonna out live-ya ,,,, lmao ,,,, anyway, i wanna welcome to the group, it's a fun place & does have some interesting blog discussions ,,,, i also like seeing how other departments do the same thing, but also love looking at different styled apparatus's used all over the world ,,,, word to the wise, if you trade patches be careful, there are a few people here looking to get then not send one back ,,,, i won't mail anything till i have something in hand now, but you do what you want ,,,, my goal is not to get a patch i do not collect them ,,,, but i will trade duty shirts from far away countries and that's how i got BURNED, i sent the guy a couple patches too ,,,, i'm just watch-n your back, something all of us on the job understand, it's a big part of what the brotherhood is all about ,,,, if you wanna add me as a friend, great, if not that too is OK, my message is intended to simply welcome you and give ya a heads-up at the same time ,,,,
be safe, god bless and smile a lot, it will piss someone off lmao ,,,,
