For the last 17 years I have been a firefighter,the last 10 of them driving a firetruck. Emergency medical technician (EMT-D) D for defibrillator which means I'm licensed to shock you.Hazardous Materials Technician for offensive operation on hazmat spills and releases.I was the guy in the space suit.Our dept has a manning (and women) of 880 folks here in KC, a city of about 500,000.
As you know a city job won't get you rich so most of us boys in blue in our off time have a part time gig.We work 24 hours on and 48 off.The hats I've worn on my off days and still wear today are an appliance repair man, a computer tech,electrician, cable and network guy, and of course general handyman.I've worked for plenty of other people but this year decided to hell with it, I'll just do my own thing, on my own schedule, when and IF I want to do it.Got motorcycles to ride , you know?
It might be hard to see me, close to the center as I cross the yard to start to try to put this one out.

OK I guess my question is for CSRMORON, then... I just saw a H.Channel program called the worlds strongest. They did a segment about these "worlds strongest" tires and talked about the big f'ing tires used in Poudre Creek, or Canyon or something, pit-mine. I swear the guy that puts the chains on those MFers, looks like that picture.Naw, just someone who looks like me! :woohoo: Actually I posted those pics for CSRMORON, He couldn't figure out how to post.

I work for a tire protection chain company and travel the U.S. installing tire protection chains primarily on wheel loaders in steel mills,quarries, and mines. I've installed chains on just about any size wheel loader, including the biggest wheel laoder in the world that operates in a copper mine about 80 miles east of Phoenix. Heres me standing next to the tire and that bad boy. (Im about 6'4")
Yeah, it must be you, I saw you on TV:woohoo:
