Update: 24 hours (9 overtime $$$$$), couple of close calls, nothing serious.

Funny how people get mad if we do nothing for 24 hours, but that usually means no one has a burning house, car, or having a heart attack.

Nights like that are usually good for everyone, but what do I know? LOL


Stay safe, stay well.  Jimmy.

P.S. With the recent Daylight savings time change, hopefully everyone changed their smoke detector batteries as well as changing the clocks. A smoke detector is the cheapest life insurance policy you can buy for you and your family. Trust me on this one.

If any detector (be it smoke or carbon monoxide) is more than 10 years old, throw them out and get new ones. They lose their effectiveness in that time.

Even though we will still go in and search, it's is VERY nice to pull up and hear someone tell you; "Everybody is out". Believe it or not, in the excitement some people can forget others. Hard to believe, but it is true.

Again, stay safe, stay well.
