both fire funny last stories true
Most of the stories that we do are true stories from the last 20 years in the fire department, both funny and tragic,
firefighter care needs
One thing that's great about firefighters: If they don't have the equipment they desperately need, they don't have the help, they don't care. They'll do it on their own.
real grief firefighter
Having dealt with a lot of real firefighters, I know there are a lot of guys who, for lack of a better term, become addicted to the grief because it has kept them connected to these guys that they felt responsible for having lost.
firefighter widows charity
My charity is in the business of helping firefighters in any way that we can. For instance, after 9/11 we were the second-fastest charity to raise and distribute money to the widows and surviving family members of the 343 firefighters who died that day.
jobs new-york fire
Most of the women placed in the fire department here in New York never passed the physical test. And a fat guy or a short guy, or anybody not passing the test in a life-or-death job, leads to friction.
country guarantees-that firefighter
It would be great if firefighters across the country had the guarantee that they would be making enough money to support their family right from the get-go, but that's not the case.
firefighter encounters selfless
Firefighters are some of the most selfless public servants you will ever encounter.
cousin firefighter guy
In addition to my cousin, there were 30 or 40 guys I grew up with who became firefighters as well. So, I've been around firefighters all my life.
america fire people
Most people don't know how underpaid and often ill-equipped urban fire departments are across North America.
firefighter goes-on strikes
Firefighters don't go on strike.
firefighter crew bigs
Once you have a firefighter in your family, your family and the families from his crew become one big extended family.
military firefighter people
What firefighters and people in our military and cops do is separate from what the rest of us do; basically these people say, 'I'm going to protect all these strangers.'
agree balloon everybody funny mean popping whether
I write what I think is funny and I write from a sense of popping a balloon or a sense of injustice, whether it's about yourself, or whether it's about something else. It's my worldview; it doesn't mean that everybody has to agree with it.
along bang beg bills bus cancer city curb death dog dollars goes hard hit leaves left life limp massive medical million mouth owe pay people power regain side speak step streets talk ten walk wife work
Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty-five years and you pay it back and then -- one day -- you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then -- one day -- you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe.
