They did it like the rest of us, whining, kicking and screaming.

I don't know actually.  I didn't know the guy from PA, and I met my friend,
Doug, after I was in the fire department.  He's a volunteer in Western
Maryland someplace; I'm not even sure where to tell you the truth.  I know
him as an electrician where I was a safety specialist.  I've seen him working
off of ladders and stuff.  He's got the CP, that's for sure, but I've never
seen him in a situation where he couldn't handle himself.  As a matter of
fact, he was pretty safety conscious, which was my main concern as his
"safety puke."  Of course, they're all safety conscious when you're looking
-- know what I mean?  But I saw him do a lot of similar things that he would
have to do on the fireground too.

I'll tell you one thing, I'd follow him in a fire.  Course, being a woman,
I'd run right back out...
