With all the responsible members we have here, how many are members of Fire Depts, whether full time or volunteer?

I joined the volunteer department in Danvers, IL when I moved here over the summer.

Who else here is committed to taking care of your neighbors lives and property?

I was an Assistant Chief of a combination paid/vol. fire department until a couple of months ago.  Also worked part time for the rescue squad as an EMT.  Now I'm no longer with the fire department or the rescue squad (by choice).

Thistle,
Just got my Sportster in October.  Took about a month to complete break-in.  I am still trying to sell by Buell Blast.  It should go pretty quick this spring.
