As of today July 25th, I'm no longer a firefighter.

I've been terminated as a volunteer after 14 years
of service to them. They've been looking for a way
to get rid of me for prolly the last 4 years, and
finally found a way.

I've seen alot, so it was prolly time.

Wasn't easy turning in my gear.

Huggs.......



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

I dream of boys with big bulges in their trousers,
Never of girls with big bulges in their blouses.

…and look forward to meeting you in Cóito.

Most of them didn't like the store the I opened.

They thought it looked bad for them to have an
owner of that type of store on the department, but
that wasn't enough to get rid of me.

They found a "rule" if you will, that was added
about 4 years ago against me. I guess I didn't
go to enough meetings and training, so that's why
they got rid of me.

I don't blame the chief, he didn't sign the letter,
and told me on the phone yesturday that he didn't
agree with the boards ruling. He's also going to
get my file that has my training, and such recorded
in it.

I guess they just were not real friends, Brian
