The Backroom Crew

This is a place where we can sit down, put our feet up and chill. Where the Boys and Girls can just be themselves. The Back Room or what most firefighters call a ''day room or rec room'' is the social point of every firehouse.

i actually do have to get them replaced yet again with in the next few years , and yes you are correct it is a form of self harm
Comment by Fabulous Heather Days of Summer on September 16, 2010 at 1:34pm
Yes Chad - wear full protective gear at all times... and warn your friends to do the same
Comment by Fabulous Heather Days of Summer on September 16, 2010 at 1:33pm
Eric - sounds like you work hard and are willing to work yourself to death - so yeah that is self-harm... pleeeeeeazzzzeee take care of yourself... You ONLY get one body... You must take care of it !!!

btw working out in the pool works well on joint injuries, like knees - dramatically increases flexibility and reduces swelling and pain - fyi

When all else fails - get some replacement knees ;-)

Heather: no i appologize i wasnt refering to self harm , i sometimes dont know my limits and have had both knees replaced due to an accident when i was in the milatary , i would never self harm , been through alot and seen alot but would never get to that point in my life again , i have come along way from that when i was a teen to where i am in my life now to do that ever again
