This is one of those professions that I think you either have what it takes or you don't.
And not many do.
Many thanks to our firefighters everywhere.

8. No, Bertman .. you should be proud. |

They work for you. They are the living legacy of "Republicans" Teddy Roosevelt and Gifford Pinchot. Neither were really Republicans, but that is an old story.
