  1. My next question is is it just for football? My son also wrestles and plays baseball and I have never seen a doctor at any of those games. I am trying to make a case for our school district to have doctors and athletic trainers at every game and practice for all sports both male and female. I see a doctor at every football game but not at the other events.
  2. I believe this was discussed in another forum at length. I dont think all emergency vehicles were included because it wasnt written that way to my understanding. I do know there was a big deal made by FASNY to stop this bill from passing. They cited it a safety issue. I believe it was a turf issue.
  3. I am sure Kentland is a good department that has a handful of idiots that make them look bad such as those who feel the need to "bake" thier helmets which is no different than those who never get inside to work in a fire yet thier faces always seem to end up with soot . I won't pass judgement on them as I never rode with them ( sorry..I don't do ride alongs) and can only make assumptions based on what I have heard and read. They seem fairly busy and if they are handling thier calls than more power to them.
  4. So than what are we? You seem to be a political expert so why not enlighten us?
  5. Couldnt of said better. Congrats ALS...
  6. I have been following him for some time now. He has presented his plan to Congress. He believes we should have zero dependence on foreign energy. Nuclear power, oil, wind, solar, and natural gas...as long as it is produced in America. We give 700 Billion dollars every year to foreigh countries some who would love to see America destroyed. He is convinced it can be done and I also beileve it can be done. The economy and national security is at stake. Let's give him a chance.
  7. Looks better on thier political resume.
  8. While I do agree with this statement I wouldn't go as far as stupdity of youth. Our youth is reflective of how they are raised. Values begin in the home and not the classroom. It is up to us as parents to drill into our kids the value of freedom and not to take it for granted.
  9. Masters in education? I am saving my apple for you...LOL
  10. I am a strong supporter of the right to bear arms. I feel we have a right to protect ourselves and our families.
  11. Get well soon brother...
  12. Wether he did or didn't lie is irrevelant to the fact that many Democrats did in fact vote to go to war yet our left wing media along with Democrats continue to throw blame at the Republican party. I am not a big fan of Bush and am not convinced we should be in Iraq either but if Hiliary Clinton truly believed we were misled than why did she vote yes?
  13. Today there was an anti-war rally in Minnesota to send a message to the Republican Party at the Republican Convention. They called for Bush to be brougt up on war crime charges. Now someone correct me if I am wrong but didn't many members of the Democratic party who represent us in the house and senate including the senator that came under sniper fire vote to go to Iraq? Why wasn't the DNC protested? I have no problem with people protesting. This is a democracy and we should support the right to protest but I don't think it's fair to single out the Republican party all the time. Why not protest in front of Hiliarys house?
  14. Ah...another member of the less hair and reading glasses club. I also am agreeing with my wife more than usual and now tell my son to not to let the little head tell the big head what to do.
  15. Yes but we aren't that old...
  16. Prayers for those down there as well as those who are going down to help.
  17. Excellent points Gooose. He tends to deviate from facts. Some Dems are just as rich and living high on the hog. Clinton, Gore, Rangel, Edwards to name a few.
  18. I decided to support McCain before he chose Palin. I feel it was a smart political move for him to choose a women to prove McCain's stance that he is a moderate Republican and not a member of the good old boy network. The critics are allready questioning her experience but please tell me what experience does Obama bring?
  19. On the subject of billing is it legal for a VAC ( non-fd) to bill if they are a tax district?
  20. I could not agree more. As a Catholic and member of the Knights of Columbus I too found his comment including the comment where he referenced little boys to be offensive, immature and without any connection to the topic at hand.
  21. Congrats...
  22. What would any distinction matter. Regardless of his status he should hang and hang hard.
