About Me:: Professional FF/EMT-B for 7 years. Member of Dept Honor Guard. Member of union e-board.

Why I Joined Fire/EMS: Family History in the fire service. It is the best job in the world.

Why I Love Fire/EMS: i may be a little tapped but i LOVE going to fires. i love the smell of smoke and sweat mixed together. some guys tell me they would rather go to 100 med calls over a fire, but this is what i signed up for. it's all ive known for 30 years. thanks to pop for getting me hooked.

Top Issues Facing Responders:: cardiac related health issues, weight issues, funding. funny how WE can control 2 out of the 3.

That does make it different, but not better. You know this too. I get angry at people's comments too, but again, if you don't take the right perspective on these criticisms, you are missing the big picture.

BTW? What was the deal with the HA Rescue Holyoke had in July. The paper said that "an anchor point could not be found". How is that possible? Stay safe dude!
