Nutella is da bomb!
(... according to my two kids.)

Me? I like it, but in moderation.
Peanut butter and Nutella on a toasted english muffin is an awesome snack.
 
I love how wound up everyone gets when I say nutella is gross. haha

Thanks for the congrats by the way.

Nutella is awesome, but I don't think it will go well with crab cakes...just sayin' :P

I double dog dare you to try it and post the results.
I didn't think chocolate and bacon would go together, until I had chocolate covered bacon, on a stick.
 
We don't have to eat/drink it all at once. :)

And chocolate covered bacon is awesome. Not paleo, but awesome.
 
Just had to go lights and sirens for 15miles for a committal of an 11y.o because pd was tired of waiting.

Really? I didn't know that was a reason to risk lives for.

Wow seriously? We run RLS for some dumb stuff but that is pretty ridiculous

Who made you go L&S? PD can't order you to do that.

They can request it through your dispatch center and the dispatcher can order you too. Also answers to certain questions, if the dispatch agency is using an EMD system, can cause calls to be upgraded to a code 3 response very easily.

PD can make the request to dispatch and dispatch will make it a code 3 response.

Same when the fire departments have a non emergent patient walk to the station. They request we respond code 3 so we have to go code.

This is what happened.

And then after we got there they stayed on scene BSing.

That's disappointing. I would hope that dispatch would be willing to say "No, we are not going to place our staff at risk just because you think you have better things to do."

If there is a valid reason, fine. A LEO not wanting to miss American Idol (exaggeration for effect) is not a valid reason.

:wacko:

I think you've got the right take on this. Especially considering all the evidence on L&S not really helping, anyway.

Around here the police have learned the key words to say to get us coming hot, not breathing right it the most popular.

Nope. Dispatch doesn't really care. We will have urgent cares and SNFs call dispatch directly and ask for us to respond code 3 for BS stuff. Then it gets sent out to us code 3.
 
I feel like sometimes we're too cool for school...singing a cheer from Bring It On, in unison with my partner and one of the SO's...awww yeeeaaahhh.
