I have a inner ear infection......my world is slightly skewed
I need some Meclizine or Valium...I wanna barf.

I'm posting this a day early but most of you will read it tomorrow
It is one of those thing I just do....

In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)
Canadian Army

IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

The new Engine

some pictures of the engine and my little station that did

We went into Main station and worked on pumping 233 from the tank and then switching to a static source and back again, its a strange lil beast cuz she has a two cylinder diesel Aux. pump
along with the 1500 G.P.M. Hale main pump
here she is with our other sub stations engine 232 and I will add 232 is a cool engine
I had to take a pic of our big stick, we got it from our neighboring town for a dollar and it responds about once every other year? it barely fits in the House

Have a great week folks and remember

this is going to be my next bumper sticker

peace

Stuff

As Wendy Over at Chromed Curses said in her blog

"Stay Classy"

Get involved and don't join the ranks.......
and we can come back like roaring lions,
or we can sit in our homes and lick our
wounds and whimper.

Its our choice.

Peace Friends

testify

I tried to go to drill

So Honest to God I was going to go to Drill tonight ....then Mrs fyreman decided to go work on her tree stand. That was not a problem, what was a problem was she had new straps to attach
her tree stand and they were zip tied to a piece of plastic and she decided to use her Schrade hunting knife(read Scalpel) to cut the zip ties, and she slipped. 1" wide and 1" deep in the meat of the heel of her hand (ouch), 2 hours later, two hydracodone, topical lidocaine, lidocaine shots, irrigations, stitches, and x-ray and we can go home. Her was pitiful, and angry...its close to the end of deer season.
