Some news I find interesting
http://www.bizjournals.com/pittsburg...9/daily34.html
CCAC to offer scholarships for those willing to be volunteer firefighters to help battle their dwindling ranks  An ingenious plan if you ask me.

I think every state run university and college should take this program up, as there is a major shortage of volunteer firefighters throughout the state.

Haha, go down to your local fire station. Did you settle in Westview, I can't remember? I believe Westview is a volunteer department.

Yeah, I could pretty much walk to it. My hunny wants me to go down to talk to them. As he puts it, "your strong"   |

Do it, do it, do it, do it! Do you have any experience? Not that you need any, they'll train you, I'm just curious.

Only watching the sexy men on TV do it  That and the house fire we had at or house in '04 where I ran screaming to the neighbors at 3 in the morning to use her phone 
(I hope I don't offend anyone here) I bartended at a "Gentlemen's Club" in Austin when I was younger. There was this tiny dancer there...I mean really tiny, like 4'11 90 lbs, that was being trained to be a fireperson. I always wondered ow she wasn't carried away by the hoses 
Anyway, I am going to do it, I think. My major is nursing so I am sure the expierience would be relevant and I would be, I hope, an asset to the Dept. |
