couldn't let this pass
I dont know where this was published but it was to great to let go it go
The ‘best compliment’
I was sitting in uniform in the SeaTac [Seattle/Tacoma, Wash.] airport the other day, waiting on my daughter’s plane to come in. While I was sitting there, this boy around 6 years of age kept staring at me. After a while, his family moved to the counter to check on their flight.When this little man walked past me, smiling from ear to ear, yet showing intimidation in his eyes, his mother told him, “Well, ask him, son.”I looked over at her young man and he stood at attention, cocked his head and asked, “Excuse me, sir ... are you a soldier?” I smiled broadly and said, “I sure am.” The little boy’s mouth opened wide, and he covered his mouth with both hands. Then he did something that made me realize the importance of my job. That little boy stood back at attention, saluted me and said, “Thank you, sir.” Then he looked at his mother and said, “Mommy, that’s a good man, he is a soldier!”The little boy rejoined his family, but stopped briefly, turned back to me, yanked out of his mother’s hand and ran over to me and gave me a hug.His mother apologized. I responded with a wavering voice, “Ma’am, I have just been given the best compliment I could ever be given; thank you for your son.”

Shiver Me What?
Being that it is Talk like a Pirate Day
Mrs. Fyreman said "there Will be NO talk of

at me with her Cutlass. She can be Bloodthirsty
(mostly to the Poor little deer in the woods ; )
and remember to throw out an occasional ARRRRR today

Holy smoke investigation Batman
So I stopped by the fire hall last night to pick up some documents I needed for our upcoming open house, Chief, Our TO, and my Captain are there as well as some other fire fighters. We are all sitting around shooting the bull and the tones go off, that time of day it is usually a medical call
the Dispatcher says its a smoke investigation, that can be anything. So we bust out to the bay and start throwing our turnouts on and I look out the rear bay door and there are 60' flames showing, HOLY SHIT working house fire. So we all went into hyper drive and I was Pumper Operator on the 2nd engine out, it went out quick and we mopped up for 2 1/2 hours
and had pizza and went home. I am tired today but feeling good.

COW
well this weekend was long, fun but really busy. Mrs F was being a Photographer at a horsemanship and ranch roping clinic put on buy a Man named Ricky Quinn. I liked him but you could not be thin skinned around him cuz he calls them as he sees em, anyway I was the I.S. support for the Mrs and down loaded over 2000 pictues onto the laptop. I have a picture I am going to post of a calf that has a brand in the middle of the ribs thas just says "cow" Its kinda like a bottle of beer that only says "BEER" on the label, I guess you would have to be raised around livestock

Saturday
Its Saturday and I am HOME ALONE, the girls are of to a horse clinic to be photographers and learn more about the Equine. I am babysitting the herd. and listening to lynard skynard box set that The Son brought back to me from A.I.T. at Fort Benning, there are just some fine musics on that there disc set "All I got, Lord, is my guitar But you can have that mister banker Won't you bury my papa for me" the blues coming off those tracks are just pure stone, I am wanting Pasta and Shrimps for dinner, We do this thing where we throw olive oil, garlic, kosher salt, and capers in with the shrimp and saute it all together then toss in the cooked pasta and finish it off with a little more Olive oil and Parmesan and Asiago cheese, Oh man with a little rustic bread, WOW
