I have a group of people i got together all interested in pellet stoves....I contacted a few dealers and we are going to get a pretty good deal considering we are going to buy 10 at once.,....while buying them we are also prepaying for pellets , about 4 ton for each stove. oil wise i only plan on buring what i need for hot water and that is it.

"CLR" Works very well..... then i use a powerball with mothers polish and makes it looking like new......make sure all dirt is removed from dimpond plate first before using powerball or it will be like polishing it with sandpaper!!!!

As for everything else I had esentials of firefighting in New york state along with intro to fire officer, Fire Officer 1, Fast, evoc, Saftey & survivel and an ex- officer in new york............CT would not except my class to be equal to interior qualifications. So now i had to take firefighter 1, after i have been doing this for 7 years....been to more classes then i can count( there are more then i listed)

If your a volly there is an expense that comes with doing it. I don't care about what i get back from it I don't even care about the whole service rewards thing. All i know is i enjoy doing it i love the guys a my firehouse there like a 2nd family and thats that. We do it to help, we do it for the brothership. I'm not going to stop going to calls or drills or meeting because gas is a little expensive. I even forget to mark myself down on the meeting forms and drill forms. I don't care what is it one more point for me. Honestly right now i am unemployed, looking for a new job, My response hasn't change one bit other then me responding to more daytime calls. Get over it theres nothing we can do. If you enjoy being A VOLLY SO MUCH THEN JUST SUCK IT UP! think about the little things that you benifit from at the firehouse. and don't tell me you don't(partys, friendships, events throughout the year) just my 2cents
-
hummm lets see.....i go on about 25 calls a month... 250 bucks in gas....where do i sign up!!!!!!!!!!!
-
LEWISBURG, TN ...$2.90 per gallon......why am i paying $3.90 per gallon?????????? I will keep the words i am saying to my self right now.
-
ever since they decided it was time to get a new rig, the company was 50/50 on if we should keep it or sell it.
-
ohhh boy. I hope not. what a beautifull rig that it is. I havn't heared anything yet i haven't talk to anyone from there recently. If i hear anything before someone else does i'll let you know. Engine 102 the old engine 104 is a almost flawless rig. The truck is almost all original and is in better shape then the truck around from the time which have been redone. I would hate to see it go. went to my first call ever as a firefighter on that truck.

Was this the club at the old salty dog marina? If so my uncle and two cousins had to be rescued off the tug at the end of the docks...I was a memeber of that club!
