Here's some more photos. I did not get every rig today, there will be more tomorrow and Thursday.... 1) Federal Fire Department San Diego Truck 1 outside the Convention Center 2) Marin County FD Type 3 Brush 1564 3) Poway FD GMC Medic Ambulance 4) San Diego FD KME Engine 18

Did you really need to share that?? lol

I thought the Bud Light commercials were great. The first being "Breathing Fire" where the guy ends up sneezing and burning everything, including the cat and girl, the second was "Ability to Fly", when the guy gets sucked into a jet engine. But as was noted before, not many great ones this year.

As much as we San Diegans despise anything Manning, if it will shut everyone's pieholes about how great the Pats are, I''m rooting for the Giants....

Rob, Let me know if there's any thoughts of anything out here in conjuction with EMTBravoWest. Duane

Thanks for posting the article. As a former military EOD Tech, I am always interested in this type of news. Anyone have a photo of one of their rigs?? Duane

And all I was going to say was run away quickly.... Seriously, good luck!! Duane

Gotta love the oldies but goodies...Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the laugh, Rob!

Congrats, Rob!

Congrats, Doc. You deserve it. Duane

I sure wish we had something like that out here...I'll be starting to hit the road hard soon. We're getting rain about every 3 days right now, so it's hard to plan photo days right now.

I've got a better one for you guys. We have people who work either as EMTs or Medics that either can't read or refuse to use the map book. As a dispatcher, I am constently asked for maps pages or asked for directions, even from Medics that I know have responded to that location. Where has the Professionalism gone??

Good news, Seth. Hope it all works out for you. Duane

Thoughts and Prayers to Officer Ridley's family, friends and coworkers at the Mount Vernon PD. May God watch over you during this tragic time.

I believe this was a Northern California FF, as there isn't a community of "Pacifica" in Los Angeles County, but is a city in the Bay Area.

Congrats, Tim. thanks for reviving all those oldies but goodies.

Air goes in and out, blood goes round and round. When either of those stops, it's a bad thing....

I agree. We'll just have to wait and see.

you young whippersnapper, I'd beat you with my cane if I could get up out of my wheelchair

Oh yeah... Innagaddadavida by Iron Butterfly-no way you'd hear a 9 minute guitar solo today on commercial radio... Led Zepplin, AC/DC, Styx and too many others to mention... Stadium shows were the norm, not a once in a lifetime thing. Now, let's discuss apparatus.... Crowns, Pirsch, Maxims were all sitting on the apparatus floors Ward LaFrances and American LaFrances also. 700s, 900s and Centurys galore... Leather helmets, pullup boots and knee length coats... As Elvis sang...."Memories, turning like the pages in my mind"....

And now with the report (though by the papparazzi) of Brady in a walking boot, it will be interesting to see how things turn out. He does have 10 more days. And with it coming out Rivers had arthroscopic surgery last Monday and now needs even more surgery on his ACL, makes you wonder what the outcome would have been if he and others would have been healthy.

Rush, Our County Board of Supervisors is attempting to combine some of the smaller career and volunteer departments here in San Diego County, but are running into headstrong Chiefs and Boards that don't want to give up their little kingdom. What ever happened to greater needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or one??
