If it can’t be solved over a shot of whiskey and a pint of stout, it’s not worth worrying about.

About Me

What do you want to know? I moved to Myrtle Beach about 12 years or so ago. Although I have grown strangely attached to this town I still miss my home in North Jersey. Graduate of Academy of Arts Science & Tec. Enrolled in HGTC Emergency Medical Technician candidate program in January of 2000. Completed the South Carolina Fire Academys Recruit program in May of 2001. 8 weeks of the greatest experiences of my life. Im always taking more SCFA classes. I work a 24/48 schedule. Im on shift for 24 hours and off for 48 hours. Im a career Firefighter EMT / Driver Operator for Midway Fire Rescue in Pawleys Island Litchfield Beach. And if thats not enough I volunteer for Horry County Fire Rescue Station ..20 off Holmestown Road. Here comes the mushy shit. Human life is valuable. The odds are definitely not in out favor, we get called when something terrible has already happened. Its our job to narrow the odds. If we help 1-50, thats one familys brother, sister, mother, father, son, daughter, grandmother, grandfather, husband, or wife that gets one more chance. It may be only enough time to say goodbye, but a goodbye is priceless. Take care of your self, look out for people around you and god damn it if you see a BIG RED FIRE TRUCK behind you GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY. Pull over and stop. You never know, it may be your loved ones. AOL s/n MidwayFD659.
