Random Hang Out Topic

I posted and subscribed. Sounds fun man! Be careful up there

woah stick is awful close to the fire no? trees must of been in the way

I have the funniest story to tell about today...

So, we're at my friend's house, who has like a lot of land and a big open field, and we're launching fireworks out of freakin piece of pipe. It explodes and hits the ground. A few minutes later, we're in this trailer thing in our paintball course, and I look up over the side and literally scream, "HOLY S***!" The field was on fire. All of my friends and I jump out and run over and start stomping on it. After awhile, it went out. My friend's dad came walking over and started laughing. He was like, "Let's not burn the whole field down guys, haha." He's funny and he didn't really seem to care at all...

There are some morons in this world. Some one just pulled over an unmarked police car. No i'm not a brain surgeon, but when your driving behind a Crown Vic that has more than two antennas and it says Public Property on the license plate it might be a police car. No matter what we are just way to patient with stupid anymore.

LOL, that's funny! And these cops had no clue it was him...?

I watched someone pull over an ambulance... which was clearly treating someone... Well I think... It went like this, SUV dricing along, Ambulance pulls it over, driver gets out and walks up to SUV driver... Police car proceeds to park behind ambulance get out and talk to ambulance passenger, in traffic stop format. :S

Oh, once the blue neon light came on the cop flipped his lights on and walked back to them. haha. Dang, I saw once where an ambulance was returning to quaters and some guy was driving drunk. So they turned on their lights and he pulled over, so they waited for the PD to get there.

pretty stick from my city

Some police cars down here can be confused with regular ones like some are toyota camry's haha. It literally more than 10 lights on it for sure. In the grille, it was going like two different patterns every 3 seconds.

wednesday my buddie get to get on a conference call with MIMS exec producer and the record companies CEO to see who won the contest and to ask questions and get answers and stuff so we'll finally find out if he gets to get in a MIMS video haha

Yeah, my father has a unmarked charger. All he has is a dual headed front dash led light and a single head rear deck led light, and front and rear wig-wags, and about 4 antennas. Most people around here figure if it has more than 2 antennas its probably L.E. Then again one of our main problem here is Hot Springs is a tourist place. So most of our problems come from tourists. They can't drive, for example a van was driving in the middle of two lanes yesterday and one of Lifenet's ambulances were trying to get by and couldn't.

Same with down here. People won't move. We had to actually stop at a light behind some other cars and turn the siren off. We were on a chest pains call.

I feel ya on that one. I was riding in my dads old car one day. He used to have a silver impala older model. It had a spot light and two 2-headed whelen strobes on the rear deck. Well it was sunny and those strobes are very small and can be seen pretty well. So while were sitting at a redlight the car behind us honks their horn, so my dad is like me and a very big smartass. He was like do it again I dare you, sure enough they did it again so he flipped on his blue lights and walked back there. At first they wouldn't roll down their window, finally they did. And said oh we saw the lights but since your not in uniform you can't do anything. Needless to say they got a ticket and an education that CID investigators with the ASP don't wear uniforms.

LOL! Take that suckers!

hahahahahhaha

Whats a CID investigator?

Criminal Investigation Division, basically a detective.

Ah, I understand.

Wow, stupid people do stupid things. I was driving home one time, and people don't pull over, much less stop! Busiest intersection in town, and a cop is enroute to a medical right down the street. He pulled up to the intersection with that really fast siren and the cop car horn, and people still didn't stop. He changed his siren like 4 times until he got through. Everyone just kept driving and didn't even slow down! I just thought it was side to how long he had to wait, about 10-15 secs. (But trust me, we were sitting on the road waiting for him to pass, and he was waiting a long time!)

Yeah, it really is sad. One day while I was on the ambulance we were on our way back to the Central station. And we heard HSFD get a Fatal MVA with entrapment. So they rolled Engine 1, Engine 3 and Truck 5 (Truck 5 is a tiller) and it was rush hour at the busiest intersection in the city. So we flipped on our lights and stop in the intersection and held it for them. They stopped by later and thanked us, but the medic told them that we just tried to give them those few seconds more so maybe someone could be saved. I never heard the medic talk as much as he did then.

I was in indiana one time since I live in Michigan we visit shipshawana (however you spell that) and a Police was rolling code 3 and none would stop he honked and honked and I don't even think anybody ever looked

It's just sad how people don't look, and get mad when they have to yield. It's pathetic.

It's because most of America does not understand the importance of pulling over when an emergency vehicle comes up behind them, due to not being educated correctly.

Here is an interesting thought....porn is legal but it's illegal to be a prostitute..

Yeah, its sad. If only they would put big push guards on the trucks and let us push them out of the way. haha

That's what the bumpers on the end of the firetrucks are for haha. Sadly, we could never use them like that .

@Moon: Amazingly random haha. Yes that is weird.

Or just make it a Class C felony not to yeild to any vehicle running emergency traffic. 5-10 years, might make some people deside to pull over.

That would be nice.

Well, wish me luck. A couple friends, Kelly, and I are going to Clinton Road tonight. I assume most of you have no clue what Clinton Road is since the majority of you guys are not from NJ, so just read some of the stories at the following link and you'll get the idea. Wish us luck!

Sounds like fun.

Good luck, have fun.

Great goodnes haha, come back safely!

Have fun! I believe in ghosts, and my dad even had a paranormal story for me haha.

So how about that call? I went to sleep for one night, and I miss 7 pages? I was wondering if we were on standby or staging or putting out fires, and I have no clue if we're supposed to be searching or supressing or whatever. Crazy I tell you! But what I see, you guys are doing a great job!

I know right. Go to school, do homework then get on at 7 and it grew 6 pages. Headache to read...

Yeah, no kidding. And trying to catch up the pages keep adding up. haha

Ya, then you type out something and 5 posts pop in before you post.

Yeah, haha. But, it is an intresting call.

So... Lets all slow down posting!

I'm all for it. haha

I don't think that's possible because sooner or later, everyone will stop their constant flow of posting. It kinda gives you the ability to think on your feet and gives that real life image like everyones doing this right as your doing something else. Kinda cool to me but it also has its downsides I'll admit.

Second that motion.

Yeah, truely, I just need to read to most recent page and look for stuff that Raven or other firefighters posted to guide me along. I'm like the only active Squad member on this call.

Florian is on too.

Yeah I forgot. But still, that's why I think I'd make a good TO someday, because I'm pretty active on calls.

Yeah thats why I'd like to be a TO at the rescue i'm on probably 12 hrs more a day cause when I'm home my computer is in my living room on my coffee table so if i'm home i'm at the computer

Well don't you go to school? If I didn't have school, I'd be on all the time, you know, just leave my computer on and refresh the page every so often.

I'm 18 and currently unemployed

Oh I see. So you just graduated high school right? Are you gonna go to college?

Isn't volunteering a job per se? You still work for the VFD don't you?

Yeah that counts.
