Thanks TLC Ambulance crew at Rancho Muretta!

I failed to get your name, crewchief, but you and your folks kept it from becoming a real Little Bighorn.

Everything has been in pairs tonight. Back to back assaults. Back to back sob calls, back to back codes, and finally back to back mvc's ....... Fun night.

Why is new car shopping always such an awful experience? Is it just me or is literally every car salesman a lying crook?
I've heard good things about CarsDirect.com and TrueCar.com. It's time I get a new car but I don't like feeling ripped off.

What about compromising the airway?

look up the anatomy and the shape of the structures.

If things get reall unbearable you can always cut the isthmus of the thyroid.

Thankfully, Kohls isn't using that song in their "Black Friday" campaign this year.

Another early morning riding backwards in a fire engine. This one for traffic control.

FD equivalent of, what? Transporting the little old lady from the SNF because the staff "can't handle" her?

Does anyone else have a desire to have some toast right now?

Eh biased much?

So an inspector came to check to make sure the tent was properly secured and safe and the Firefighter told him to take a hike? That's helpful. Just recently here in St. Louis a large tent such as that collapsed in the wind killing/injuring numerous people. They then come back asking about basic food handling techniques and are again met with arrogant smart *** answers.

I totally understand that it is a disaster and people do what they have to but it sounds like the inspector was just making sure it was done the safest way possible. I bet things would have gone over a lot better if the FF would have been more cooperative and less of a jackass. I bet the only reason they actually issued violations was the attitude.

What if the tent collapsed? What if the hundreds of people they served got food poisoning? How would that help the situation? I see nothing wrong with the inspector simply asking questions and pushing to make sure the food is properly cooked and served.

Edit: Quote from the Health Department "Inspectors will only be advising people in storm-affected areas on how they can better serve food without spreading food-borne illnesses.”

Non-NYC folk just don't understand...


Dictator Bloomberg actually proposed a bill BANNING the sale of any non-diet beverage over 16oz.

I am thinking about starting to train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but I am kinda nervous that I might injure myself and then be unable to work (which is bad when you have no other source of income). Does anyone here practice any martial arts?

There's a difference between providing advice/guidance and issuing violations backed up by the threat of fines. Same goes for the person inspecting the poles.

Not yet. I'm going to stay Krav Maga though and I've wondered the same thing, so I'm interested to see what some replies are.
