Yep - had no glass, other than a square of plexiglass in front of the driver's seat! I think wooden bumpers too, but I may be wrong....

I remember that guy!

Why is it OK - not just in Pleasant Valley - but world wide for EMS to be farmed out to a private commercial service, but if you thought of doing the same with police or fire services - a riot would ensue?

Straight to the Detective Division for you 2 I say.

I know what I woulod do - as most likely I would be travelling with my family. I'd would kill him with my bare hands.

The main reason these people want THEIR specific gear back is that it is usually a better quality, ie more expensive than what is used by commericial services. If they spent the money on a super duper top of the line head immobilizer, they probably are gonna want it back....and not used on some drug dealer who got capped in the head after ripping someone off for 20 bucks of crack in some "city". Maybe they should save their money and buy the cheap throw out immobilizer blocks like we used at Empress back in the day.....or towel rollls.......nothing to complain about there....

Is Oneeye working on the Island now??
