Refresh my recollection where I said "I was going to beat you up".

Not that I doubt your integrity, by my present recollection is that I said "you ought to have your ass beat".

Thanks to all.....
We had regents up here and the kids in the school had to take them today, that was tough. As far as this post not interesting MAT and boring her, oh well. I will look forward to her next post which I am sure will excite all. Remener the good here still outnumbers the bad by a large margin. Really, thanks to all, it helps.

I am an E.M.T. also. I have saw the same thing you have. I volunteer with the local rescue squad in my area and also have to work wrecks sometimes. Some of the things you see are heartbreaking. I have seen men cry ( myself included ) after the accident was cleared. To see a child killed in a accident that could have easily been avoided rips at your heart. An E.M.T. see a lot of things that don't make it to press. If drinking was involved you usually know it. On the other hand placing a lost child in the arms of a worried mother is one of the most rewarding feelings you will ever have. E.M.T.'s see a lot. Anyone that can pull a mangled child from a wreck and not get choked up is not much of a person. Anyone that thinks differant needs to volunteer for a rescue squad for a while and see if it changes their view.

Do you really want me to post the quote(s) or do you want to say that you are a passionate man who may have said things in anger that you really didn't mean?

Facing the truth is painful, but the truth shall set you free.

Being an EMT is not my thing and if jack had worked the accident in question, I would not have commented.

jack choose to politicize a tragedy, by editorializing the incident. I don't know what is going on inside jack's head, but I got deep in his kitchen seeking the truth.

I had my EMT license years ago. I was planning on getting my ALS/paramedic also. Then after doing my clinicals and ride along work I realized the pay wasnt worth it. I loved what I got to do but was amazed by the horror you can see in one 13hour shift. I decided that my job at the time was far better for me psychologically. Hats off to those who do this work though, they have a heckuva job.

I am a maintenance electrician by trade. I work at a plant in northern AL. The plant I work at has an emergency response team. They provided and paid for all the training. They have sent me to High angle rescue, texas fire fighting at A&M, confined space, hazmat and several other classes over the years. This is strickly a volunteer position with no extra pay. However they do compensate us with jackets and such. At work we don't have to use it much. We don't have calls with the rescue squad but about once a month. I don't know if I could do this full time. I can see why folks get burned out in this line of work.

I agree about the burn out BAMA, that is why I volunteer and could not do this fulltime. We live in a rural area and all are emergency fire and ambulance people in the county are volunteer but those numbers are shrinking as the requirements to stay licensed are getting stricter so many hours are required at no pay, people are squeezed.

If I said I was going to kick your ass, bacpac, then yes, I was probably pretty pissed.

Normally, I prefer frank discussion as opposed to violence.

First thing, if your like the women I know, cut down on the number of keys on the ring. Most women I know have a 10 pound key ring. They look like Schneider on One Day at a Time.

I Also Have a Bridge to Sell You

ANOKA, Minn. (AP)
— A 22-year-old Savage, Minn., man faces charges of theft by swindling after allegedly claiming he had a chemical potion that could transform plain white paper into U.S. currency.

Franklin T. Forlemu was scheduled to appear in Anoka County District Court on Monday for a hearing.

Police said Forlemu used a sleight-of-hand trick to make it look like blank pieces of white paper were turned into $20 bills. A Coon Rapids grocery store owner fell for the trick and gave Forlemu about $70,000 in $100 bills, in hopes the money would be multiplied.

Instead, the store owner got only white paper, and his money was gone, according to the criminal complaint.

Police said they found the cash in Forlemu's apartment.

Bryan Lindberg, an Anoka County prosecutor for 20 years, said the scam "is the most creative one I have seen."

The chemical potion Forlemu used was actually water, said Coon Rapids Detective Dave Westberg.

Forlemu, an illegal immigrant from Africa, had no prior felony convictions and was released on personal recognizance. His public defender, Bryan Leary, said he needs to review the charges before commenting.

Westberg said the U.S. Secret Service did not file counterfeiting charges, but officials are watching the case.

That sounds like something I saw at a flea market Saturday.There was a guy selling this stuff in a spray can,he claimed that if you sprayed this stuff on your license plate,those cameras at stoplights couldnt pick up your license number.I said sure ,a can of black spray paint will do that.lol But cops wouldnt be to happy about it!

Streamweaver, that's actually a legitimate product that works as advertised. It puts a reflective coating on your license plate that shows up on camera as a blown out highlight that's unreadable due to the high power strobes that the "photo cops" use to stop the action. Basically it turns the license plate portion of the photo into an overexposed image. It's called Phantomplate.

You gotta wonder....WHY?
Durham Man Injured After Running Under Stopped Truck

DURHAM, N.C. -- A Durham man was critically injured when he attempted to run under the trailer of a tractor-trailer Monday morning, police said.

The tractor-trailer was stopped at a traffic light on Hoover Road at Holloway Street when Durham police said Gilbert Godwin, 58, attempted to run under the trailer.

When the traffic light turned green and the truck began to move, the truck's rear wheels struck Godwin, causing severe leg, pelvic and internal injuries.

Godwin was taken to Duke University Hospital where he was listed in critical condition Monday evening.

Investigators said Godwin had just left a convenience store and was apparently running to his residence, which was a short distance away.

Police said no charges will be filed against the driver of the tractor-trailer, Ray Anthony Lee. The truck, a 2003 Volvo owned by Delhaize America Corp., was not damaged.

The accident slowed traffic on Holloway Street and Hoover Road for more than two hours
