There old boat, a really nice Whaler, is up on Craigslist.


But lets not kid ourselves, PG County is much, much, much more important than Wicomico County, or Salisbury.

Oh crap! Once the members at our fire palace find this out, they will want one to play with too! Maybe a fire blimp would also be in line!!

I VOLUNTEER AND I TOO CAN WASTE THE 'BURYS MONEY said...

LETS HOPE THE HIERACHY OF THE SALISBURY FIRE DEPARTMENT DOES NOT SEE THIS POST. IF THEY DO LOOK FOR "AIRBOAT 2" TO BE PLACED IN SERVICE AT THE NEW SFD FIRE STATION, FLOP HOUSE,AND DAY CARE CENTER # 2. Then we will see a SFD MEDIVAC COPTER at STATION 1?

After mulling this article, and previous ones about them cruising for chow I have a solution to offer.

It entails additional equipment (toys) so is sure to get a favorable nod.

Each station should have a Food Truck that goes on calls with them. That way when they gotta roll nobody will come back to cold food.

Will need more staffing, also good for approval. Food will be budgeted rather than from employee pockets.

Best of all, looks like they'd be the first kids on the block, er state, to have one. Parades will never be the same!

An airboat would probably be more useful that a fireboat. Its meant to go in very shallow water, usually to pick up "floaters".

The misguided moron you would be referring to as the hierarchy of the Salisbury Fire Department would be the one and only lazy fat@$$ known as Rick Hoppes. The one that has gone to "the mayor" to get the homo on his side as he screws over the volunteers of Station 1. The volunteers of Station 2 are already being screwed. The volunteers of Station 16, what volunteers? That's right they have been ran off by design. That is why they have two full paid fire engine and ladder truck companies there like Hoppes and Tull have been planning for quite some time. Who needs volunteers when paid guys will do the job and you get to stay home because you are not needed. Yes Jim Ireton you screwed the city over with your appointment great lazy fat one.

Sounds like a plan. They could buy the Famous Dave's vittle wagon. It was red with an emergency light package and already had Salisbury F.D. written on the doors.

It's free money who cares.

12:07 Hip waders are a hell of a lot cheaper. Oops, forgot how LAZY society has become. Let's get an air boat, and be sure it dispenses cheeseburgers and lard arse.

Sell them the S.S. Hoppes since they have had it for nearly 3 years and it hasn't gone on it's first call yet.
