    I forgot photography....I used to be really into making pinhole cameras and BW film that I develop myself but now it's mainly digital.

    advice on a new dog?

    I grew up with a Beagle. He was such a cute, loving and entergetic little dog. He had a ton of energy but was very smart and well trained. My other dog now lives with my parents. She is a malteese. Not really my style because she is less than 10 pounds and fluffy but she is full of...

    Best Barracks Movies

    I forgot Dodgeball! And one time one of my co-workers said "meow" during an entire staff exchange when I was working at a wilderness threapy company. The incoming staff didn't even notice during the entire hour long meeting! It was awesome!

    I agree with Super Troopers! And Zoolander isn't too bad either....."there's got to be more to life than being really, really, really good looking!"

    What other jobs do you all work?

    I'm also a full time student and I babysit for a local family while the parents work. During the summer I have raft guided and I have worked for a wilderness therapy outfitter as field staff. I'm applying to work for Outward Bound on their Utah river courses next season.

    Kind tell? You'd better reconsider your career choice if you can only "kinda tell."

    Don't expect to do anything you see on that show. Well you could but you will be fired.

    vacuum mattress repair

    Thanks Summit! I actually did quite a bit of yard work for a rafting company back in my guiding days so I am pretty skilled at patching. I was just having trouble finding any holes since you can't really hear it like on a raft. The valve very well may be the issue but I wasn't sure if they...

    vacuum mattress repair

    These are actually used for training not mission use. I would, however, like the training gear to be in good order so that things can be better simulated. These are also not used in EMS. They are for a SAR team.

    vacuum mattress repair

    I have been attempting to repair 3 leaking vacuum mattresses for a couple of weeks now and I have yet to find the source of the problem with any of them. They are all made by MDI. Does anyone know if the company will take them for repairs? If not does anyone have any advice on how to approach...

    controversial- what leads you to believe we are in a "legitimate profession"?

    I think the great medics are knowledgable themselves but they are also concerned about the rest of the crew's ability and knowledge. The EMT can make or break a critical call for a medic.

    That was my favorite show when I was like 5. Cops was my 2nd favorite. I knew the theme song by heart. I was a strange kid!

    controversial- what leads you to believe we are in a "legitimate profession"?

    I think there are medics and EMS services out there that do an amazing job at making this a legitimate job. I have worked with some paramedics that embrace the academic side of the job and do a great job with patient care. It sounds like medics like them are rare but they are out there and I...

    Uniform shirt

    We were required to wear EMS pants for ride times. I suggest the 5.11 tactical pants because most women's pants are not flattering at all. These are awesome though! If you plan on working on an ambulance spend the money for them. Also we were required to wear a white collared shirt. Polos...

    Petition for Colorado EMS licence plates?

    I agree that CO does have a license plate for just about everything else. Might as well get an EMS one!

    EMT-Basic Certification

    My class was the length of a college semester. I think there's a reason that program is known for producing good EMTs.
