About Me:
First call I went on was the worst: Car vs. Motorcycle. Victim in 3 pieces on Rt 9D, Cold Spring.
In West Des Moines, my friend Pat and I were the interior attack team on engine 11. Seemed like whenever there was a working fire, we were in the jump seats. In Ossining, I have done three interior knockdowns, and every time I have teamed with my friend Donny. I got to diversify.

Why I Love Fire/EMS
Helping people. Little kids looking up at you as if you are awesome!

Hello there. How are you liking the Nation? FF Nation that is!
Ha Ha! Sure, you can try to bust my chops about the Sox. Bring it. Hey, I once did some training in Meadowood, NH with an older guy from Ossining, smoked alot of cigars as I recall. Went there almost every year. Can't remember his name though. You know him?

Hey Chris,

Welcome to the 50 club, the tail end of the boomers.
Well, I'm not gonna lie, this sucks. I am having a hard time with this number, so I'm fighting it every step of the way. The gym has always been my second home, now it's gonna be my first....

Happy Birthday to us!!!
