Ladies and Gentlemen, at one point in time I was a firefighter, and for the next few days I will be playing Amazing Grace in rememberence. Please feel free to join me at the top of every hour....

The thought of nearly 300 flag draped fire units and a lone piper hurts...

That's a good idea chip2447. I have a friend who is a firefighter and I keep thinking about those who ran TOWARDS the trouble and then died while helping.

from the "Gresford Disaster"

...It occurred in the month of September At three in the morning the pit Was racked by a violent explosion In the Dennis where gas lay so thick.

Now the fireman reports they are missing The records of forty-two days; The collier manager had them destroyed To cover his criminal ways

Firemen and rescue workers are such dedicated and brave people. I was listening to mayor Giuliani talking about the personal friends lost among the many firefighters who died today while doing their job.
