thinking of them now

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

It's pretty sad. My husband is a firefighter and all the crew I know is so dedicated to actually saving people's lives it's not even funny.

My honey would jump out of bed any time during the night no matter how tired to get to a call...makes you respect them so much for what they do

I just hate the fire tone when they announce a call. The sound of it is driving me crazy :)
