GREAT VIDEO! Looks like they copied that rescue in the movie, Ladder 49

Budweiser always has great ads but i thought that the doritos mouse commercial was hysterical. also, excellent job by tom petty! YEAH G MEN!

Having that parking lot there will be nice. I hate the walk from WCPD parking lot with turnouts and SCBA. Its a real pain in the butt after a long day of training.

It looks like a nice purchase, Purchase

1800nametape.com They were very quick and easy..

I like how Rye has the Ipages on their site.

Have any of you ever seen the movie, Rat Race? Remember how Mr. Bean and Wayne Knight (Newman from Seinfeld) attempt to deliver the heart? I hope those people driving those cars dont pick up hitch hikers!

I thought it was an NFPA requirement to have a high-vis tip

Just out of curiosity... how come the tip of the new L-12 isnt painted? Is that the department's responsibility to do so?

firefighterclosecalls.com and vententersearch.com have great training ideas.

Ive been having some trouble still with getting onto emtbravo.com but emtbravo.net has been working fine.

When I was an Explorer, I bought myself a set of Chieftain. I used that set for my time in explorers, classes and then some. It was a decent first set of gear, but it was obviously not the best quality. My Department recently just got Morning Pride and it is awesome. Everything is custom fit and it fits perfectly. I find myself being able to move around in ways that most turnouts wouldnt allow for. My favorite part of Morning Pride, aside from it looking cool, is the fact that you can move your arms freely without the rest of the coat moving around. I dont know if that makes the most sense but Im sure that anyone with morning pride can attest to that. Morning Pride fits like bunker gear should fit. I have tried on GXtreme and I didnt like it. I found it to be entirely too bulky. There is way more material than needed, especially in the pants. It seems that the most popular turnouts (around here at least) are Gxtreme, morning pride and reaXion. Those are what my Dept looked into and I am very glad they decided to go with Morning Pride. I think it was an excellent all around choice.

I know a guy who works for DSNY (dept of sanitation) and we were actually talking about this not too long ago. He said that they are trying to do away with garbage men on the back step. He is against it because it will make a lot of extra work but it is in the best interest of the employees.

Aside from the obvious appearance, what are the differences between a custom rig and a commercial rig?

the greatest thing since sliced bread is in fact sliced bread!

About a month ago, my room mate was playing in a rugby match on the turf field at school. he was tackled, got turf burn and a week later, his knee was the size of a volleyball. A few kids at my school have gotten it and everyone has been fine. Just as a precaution, they made me move from my room to entirely different floor and they also called in a company to "decon" my old floor. As Als told me, just wash your hands- a lot..

DONT MESS WITH TEXAS!

the only place i dont wear a seatbelt is on the train

They let them sit for 8 weeks?! No wonder why it costs so much!
