1. Stay ready and you wont have to get ready

2. If you don't look professional you're probably not

3. A ball player is not PRO until he gets paid to be a ball player

4. No cook'in like fire house cook'in

5. I am a fire fighter because I would rather be in a raging fire than in a shoot out

All is well in SC and winter is going rather mild. I hope all of you can say the same thing that I can: God is good. All the time, when I am down, when I am up, when I am asleep, and awake; God is good.

I have been in the fire service almost 20 years and I have never been to something so big.

I bet you could fit 6 football fields inside the expo center there in Atlanta and all of that area was filled with fire fighting equipment and information for the fire and ems service.

I would recommend that everyone try to go to the IAFC- Expo at least once in a life time. You should know that it was totally free if you signed up in advance and it was well worth it.
