  1. Right now I'd have to say Eagles
  2. Ironic ain't it? AMERICAN medical response owned by Canadians. :-> Tho if you want to be REALLY technically, they are americans too. :-k
  3. RWC130: I would hope they keep the fire stations spread out. I'm not sure how much of an impact it would have on insurance rates if suddenlty half of peekskill were further away from a firehouse and had thier rates go up because of this. Besides, a central firehouse would be where? Center of the ciity? What happens when the big one goes down on lower washington street? I know Peekskill isn't that big, but consolidation doesn't seem too great an idea. Maybe a north and south end station. But not one big station.
  4. Since you seem to be near Pound Ridge, you could always try the reservation in Cross River. When it gets wider and deeper there are some good spots. Don't tell the LVAC folks this, but go park at the town house and walk across the LVAC driveway to the mouth of the river near where it meets the Reservoir at the Route 121 bridge. Always seems to be people over there fishing. Can also park at the three spaces at the entrance to the reservation and walk down the small slope to the edge of the water and fish from the little open patch of meadow they have there,. I see people fishing and just plain chilling out there all the time during good weather. It shouldn't require a DEP permit since it's not really the reservoir, but you do need the state fishing permit in case one of the rangers checks on you.
  5. They might as well stop calling it Radio Shack. What will they get rid of next? The force feed in the back where you can get alll the resistors and components and such?
  6. She needs some serious psychological help. A lot of people do. What do we need to do next, have people get psych evals before getting a license?
  7. Light something on fire and pray they see the smoke?
  8. Too cold and I saw several people fall in. :roll:
  9. Airwolf is another show I'd love to see on DVD. Maybe one day.
  10. Radio Shack doesn't even do crystals by mail order anymore? Thats very odd.
  11. Is it just me or have there been a LOT of vehicles vs building accidents in Mohegan in the past months?
  12. Supposedly from the NY Post, but I have no reference. (Received by email)
  13. Along the lines of Hazmet....I could use a refresher up to the ops level and would like to take the Technician class. Do they do the 24 hour class or do they also offer the full EPA 40 hour? They were supposed to do more of the 40 hour EPA Hazmat Tech class at county, but then the EPA nixed that idea and pulled them back to Essex NJ.
  14. Harrison or Westchester medics?
  15. 788 Police forever! :twisted:
  16. Let us know how the project goes and if you have any more questions, feel free.
  17. Wow. Is he still around. Perhaps for those who are not (totally) familiar, someone would like to post a quick summary of who Firebike 1 is. :->
  18. When using a digital, check your modes. My Sony digital has two night modes (Moon and Moon+). I find that if I accidentally have them engaged they tend to yield blurry pictures. IF you can make due without that mode, use something else. I find I get a lot of good shots in landscape mode. Of course if you are shooting at night you might need the extra exposure time to get a good shot in. You just have to play with the settings and find what works best for you. Most commonly, blur is caused by movement while the shutter is open. If you can, use a tripod. Nighttime mode results in the shutter being open longer to gather more light. In the end it comes down to trial, error, and experience. YMMV
  19. Now we're talking!
  20. Thats why I use my OWN computer and I avoid Windows whenever possible.
  21. I'm game. On a related note, we should see about getting a small group together to go to the JEMS conference in 2005. It's in Philly again and I missed it the last time it was there. Scooter gets his own room tho since he could wake the dead with his snoring.
  22. FEH. As of tonight the Giants have lost 4 in a row. I stick to my original prediction. Go Gang Green.
