  1. Keys in the ingnition! Car running! Trying to kill someone cause you drank too much! Sorry, GREAT JOB Yorktown PD for getting another potential tragedy before it had time to happen!
  2. Guess the sleep aids worked...just too well!
  3. Patriots by 1 point, 7-6...Giants lose on missed field goal, and kicker drives to TZB when back in Metro NY and jumps!
  4. I don't think illegals will be lining up to get Illegal ID's...just a thought though!

  6. I am going to look for the video...then I will try to upload it in some part to Youtube under a code name which I will release here... This is regarding True Blue.
  7. Wait, it is a "NEW" Rambo? I thought that it was them just re-releasing the original! What a bad idea...Stallone keeps trying to bring back classics that should remain just that...CLASSIC! No more Rocky, no more Rambo, and no more Terminator (I know this is Schwarz-a-governor)...I refuse to watch that TV Show about Sarah Connor!
  8. Same thing here...I have been seeing those lines and thinking WTF... I did not know prior to this about the liquid form, however at the Fishkill Rte 9 yard I saw a clear tank that can be mounted on a DOT Truck...guess that is what that is for! Thanks for the info!
  9. Technically Chief, the run card puts E301 before you...but they ain't around no mo'...LOL and 10 is technically 2nd due on 2nd alarm now-a-days. Thanks for the photos smokeeater!
  10. Now can you get me my EMTBravo press credentials already so I can go to all the Yankee Games free of charge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. Mike, he said your email could have been JUNK...are you going to accept that? LOL Just chill, you have the rest of your life to volunteer, and the more anxious you are now, the faster you will get burnt out by the job...
  12. I had posted about Mulford being a ghost town a few months back, maybe a year ago...that topic was closed as a result of age...This is the first update I have heard in a while! Article taken from: The New LoHud.com online Newspaper! Link to original post: Old Topic
  13. Yeah, I remember when you would here Peekskill request it cover on M/A jobs. It would take them forever to get to the Cortlandt H&L House on Main St. Just couldn't get up and going...Guess that is what a 6 cyl does on a huge fire truck...
  14. Here, I made it easier...there are pictures too, somewhere...
  15. It is upstate...there is a topic on it...use the search engine and type in Verplanck...only about 10 items come up and that is one of them.
  16. An act of God! Not man made, nobody's fault! Lawsuits like this are, well, tasteless! It is amazing that you can basically sue for anything. If you were watching the weather channel and were any bit concerned you would have left sooner than waiting for someone telling you to get the **** out of dodge!
  17. Wow, talking about old shows, did anyone ever watch "True Blue" the show about NYC's Police Emergency Service Unit, what late 80's? Or what was the Narcotics unit show from Las Vegas, Janet Jackson did the intro song for the show. I think I have the "True Blue" pilot on VHS somewhere and maybe 1 or 2 episodes. I remember it began with a terrorist type incident and a cop shot incident in which the PD Rescue extricated the officers using a truck that the bottom opened up on...did NYPD really have trucks with that feature or do they still?
  18. I only heard of 1 TL for Yks...and the Collapse rig may be something similar to the MSU, just set up for the duty of collapse equipment vehicle. Haven't seen any solid plans yet, other then the new FD Command Post Unit. As for ALF, I feel awful for those poor souls who depend on that business being there to have a job. Many a town have become ghostly because plants have shut down and that was the only source of work/economy for the location. I hope they all get back to work soon!
  19. Doesn't it date back to when the postal workers rode on horseback? All they did was stand up and put the mail in!
  20. Great job...way to be prepared!
  21. Wouldn't be a superbowl without a Manning! LOL I am routing for the Giants, although I am not a fan of any particular football team, I want to see the Giants-Pats matchup. I think Favre had a great year...almost Clemens like (do they test for HGH?) J/K. No emtb pool?
  22. As well, I think if any DOT Highway guys are on here they will vouch for the maniacs speeding along the parkways and such that just don't care about the workers on the side of the road. I used to hate EMS jobs on the highways, always was prepared to flee if I saw something odd! People just don't pay attention to the road, they are too busy talking/texting or looking at their GPS (as we all have seen a good one recently!) The Highway is the most dangerous place I can think of, especially standing along it while cars wwwwhhhhhiiiiiizzzzzzzzz by. Oh and I see your point, I thought he was talking about the firehouse itself. However, these DOT workers spend a lot more time out there, and at times they are left unprotected. "Give em a BRAKE!"
  23. I remember seeing that Engine growing up in the area. I am not a "POINTER", but live close enough, unfortunately (LOL). I also remember seeing pictures of the Old Montrose FD units, and maybe 1 was also a Mack "C", but I am not a true fire apparatus buff so I really have no idea...
  24. I think every civil service exam has an alternate date for situations such as yours and religious observances, however I could be wrong.
  25. Ummmmmm, a firehouse, dangerous. Other than Mt. Vernon or Bridgeport (LOL), I don't think too many firehouses are really that dangerous! Unless you have a crew of backstabbers... Highways are the deadliest places on earth! Think about all of the car accidents that occur each day. That is what makes it the most dangerous place to work, other than one of those fishing boats up off of Alaska!
