There was a site where someone did a similar thing, posting about how crappy some kids drawings were.

At first I didn't think it was funny at all, but everyone else did. The second time I didn't think it was funny, but understood how others could. I think I finally get it, but it took a while :)

Painting a fire truck yellow, if it is not intended for an airport, is a sin!

Which is why our FD is going to heck... Ours are orange...
You're not from Wheeling WV are you? That's the only place in the US I have ever seen an orange engine.

We give the local department with yellow trucks all levels of grief because they are so damn ugly. If you ask their training chief he'll tell you they are (and I quote because I don't have time to make s--t up any more) "Chartreuse, you know, for high visibility and what not." I strongly question Tom's sexuality because of that comment because no self-respecting straight male firefighter (and calling Tom a firefighter is using the term VERY, VERY loosely) would ever say that about their apparatus. Hell, most wouldn't even know what the word means.

Nope.. I'm from Potter County, Penna...

Local FD is the Bureau of Forestry. Stumpjumpers are green and orange.

Ok, so yesterday I'm walking around the Corps and I notice all the posters from the poster contest we had to kick off EMS week. I wish I could post some of them here, all I kept thinking were comments like the ones posted here...

There was a patient who looked like a gingerbread man, then there was a woman who was 5 times bigger than the EMTs (we must have called Brentwood for their doublewide, lol). Apparently, the ambulance corps owns several hospitals, because there were lots of pictures of the outside of hospitals - no EMTs or ambulances in sight.

My favorites though were two or three that looked like the ambulance was sinking into the ground (a big box with no wheels)... but what's super funny about that is my partner got an ambulance stuck in the mud on a median and had to be towed out by ESU... so now we call him "Stuck in the Mud"... so I took him in to see the drawings and told him these kids must have heard of him - then I ran away really fast before he could beat me.

We have winches on the ambulances that go to rural areas, so we don't have to call a tow truck.. :p

Well, emergency services was on scene already, so it wasn't too big a deal, except that the bird had to wait while the pt was put into a 2nd rig for transport to the LZ.

Nah. My favroite was a REALLY muddy day on the turnpike, when we got called in station by the crew working 2nd rescue on the turnpike for a bad MVA. Pt's all extricated when we get a call from the scene "Umm.... Lionville's rescue is stuck...and I guess we are too..." The chief at the time moonlights as a tow-truck driver, and usually works weekends. He and the EMS Capt. took his "little" towtruck (international chassis) back to the garage for a "big tow truck" (50 ton rated) and went up to the pike, hauled both Rescue trucks out of the mud on the side of the road, and all went home. Somehow the bumper on the rescue ended up at a 45-degree angle in the air bacause the spot welds holding the bottom on broke... note to self.... don't use those tow-hooks.

We still have the digital pictures for blackmail purposes.
