- Hey, whats wrong with city folk? J/K I was born in Boston and I got a job with the BFD up there. My parents lived in Jersey and I coldnt afford it anymore, so I moved to Jersey. I was raised in the city my whole life. No offense, but I couldn't live in a rural area. I always have to be doing something.
I do love Texas though. Besides the heat, even though is a dry heat, but texas is awesome. There is so much freedom. Up here during the summer, its really humid and the humidity makes everything so misereable.
Stay safe down there and take care of the people that need Medical Attention. Thanks for your help in making a difference by helping people.

- Wow, snow and ice in Texas? Thats incredible. I have been to Texas once. I went to Austin. It was hot as hell but beautifull down there. I am not a heat person. I am a yankee and I love the cold. Are you of a Spanish decent? I was just wondering.
The Stars at night, are big and bright, deep in the heart of Jersey! J/K

Welcome to the family where the language and reasoning important the Border is not in our work is to save lives regardless of color, religion or social position, much less. The important thing in our work does not need language to communicate, or borders to help.
Greetings from Mexico.
you’re new friend Filiberto.

The incident hindered my response by a minute or so which could make all of the difference. In this instance - no, I still made the rig (it was an EMS call). However, the "What If" factor plays a key role - the other drivers passing me didn't know...
This is true. It's personally happened to me, I've heard horror stories about it, and someone I work with has even stated that she purposely does this as well. However, if it were her house on fire, or her husband and/or children that needed help,...
